I like these cups because they are very durable and they never leak. They are also very easy to wash. I like the smaller part in the middle because it helps little kids grip onto it with their little hands. However, the cups are quite big. My daughter never drinks that much at one time. She is two, so she can't clearly tell me for sure, but I don't think she likes the size very much. She usually refused to take this cup and then takes a smaller one when I offer it.

Through 4 kids we have probably tried every kind of sippy cup there is. I love this one because the lid never pops off, the stopper is very easy to clean, the cup is slightly curved to make it very easy for my 12 month old to hold (she is now 18 months). Even when she throws it on the floor, the cup hasn't broken. Occasionaly the stopper falls off into the cup, but not a big deal as it doesn't happen that often. And she can't chew up the nipple as has happened with EVERY soft-spout cup ever brought in this house. We have been using these cups for a little over 6 months.

My daughter started using these sippy cups at about a year. Her little hands had no trouble holding the cup. A year and a half later, the cups are still holding strong. They are very durable and hold up well to the abuse of a toddler. We had had some trouble with other sippys we tried leaking. These cups have been through the ringer and still haven't leaked. They are also much easier to clean that a lot of other sippy cups. The valve doesn't get nearly as grimy as a lot of the other valves out there. Pop it in the dishwasher and it's clean. Replacement valves are a little difficult to find. One of the local grocery stores has them on occasion, and I try to stock up to replace the ones that have fallen victim to the garbage disposal. It has grown with our daughter. She seems to enjoy it as much now as she did as a baby. It's been nice not having to upgrade to whole new set of cups every few months as she grows.

I bought this Gerber sippy cup, because it was on sale when I went to look for a sippy cup at the store.  Let's just say it was a great choice. **1. It is easy for my son to hold, because of the hour-glass shape. (He started using this at age 9 months)** **2. It does not leak.  ** **3. Easy to clean and is dishwasher safe.** **4. Holds a good amount of liquid. ** **5. Is BPA free.** **6. Can be drank from the wrong side.  (My son will jsut grab the this cup and drink in any direction it goes)** **7. The valve is easy to insert, no having to make sure it is the correct direction or side  Only has one hole. (Other valves have an arrow you have to line up with the correct side, annoying)** There are two cons I have with these Gerber sippy cups, but does not make me regret getting them. 1. If your child throws the cup down too many times, the white plasitc value falss out and it will leak for sure. 2. The cup base is so wide, if you have a carseat that has cup holders it may not fit- at least it does not fit into the cup holders on the Graco My Ride 65.

These cups have been great for our first two children.  They are easy to hold onto and they love how they change colors when cold liquid is added. They are a great size, not too big but hold a good amount.  When it was time for my third child to use them, I noticed my son had made bite marks on all of the sippie parts of the lids.  I got online to see if I could purchase more lids since we had nine of these cups.  I didn't have luck with finding them for purchase so I called Gerber.  They sent me the nine lids in the correct color for free!  They didn't even charge for shipping!
