Baby Products Reviews of Foogo by Thermos Leak-Proof SS 7 oz Sippy Cup with Handle in Blue
Customer Review: Love this cup but it's starting to stink.
Summary: 4 Stars
I had been using Avent's Magic cup sippys but my son wasn't drinking very much so I decided it was time to try a new sippy and since this one was insulated and BPA-Free I thought I would give it a try despite the price. It is so much easier for him to drink out of this cup than the Magic cups. The cup has never had a leaking problem accept for once the other day but I realized the valve wasn't completely installed correctly. The cup does not have too many parts and is not hard to put together. The magic cup had less parts but was harder for my son to drink from so I would rather have more parts for a better product. The new problem I have been having is that the cup is starting to stink like sour milk. If you wash it out with water the smell goes away until it dries and then it smells again. Its very wierd and very disappointing since I really love this cup. The cup has dented but we don't mind.
Pros:
BPA-Free
Insulated
Easy to drink from
Nice look
Cons:
starting to smell
will get dents if your son throws it around like mine
heavy compared to plastic cups
Update: I really loved this cup but another problem has come up. There is a silcone rim that seals the top of the cup and after taking a close look at it, it appears there are black dots underneath it (that weren't there before). I have to guess that it is mold growing underneath there. Too nervous to keep using the cup which is a big disappointment since its my son's favorite cup. We have probably owned the cup for 6 months now.
Customer Review: Love it, but leaks
Summary: 4 Stars
I really like this cup, and so does my toddler but it LEAKS. Maybe I am doing something wrong. If anyone can help please let me know. If it is left on it's side or jiggles around to much in the diaper bag, it leaks through the little air hole and the spout. Little drips that accumulate when you are not looking. The assemble isn't so tough once you do it a few times. I try to re-adjust an push the valves in tight hoping it won't leak but it always gets me everytime- or my daughter's clothes wet in the carseat especially(very annoying). Other then that- we love it and love the fact it is bpa-free. Good luck to those trying to find something not made in China. It looks like there isn't much of a choice.Customer Review: Looks great but leaks
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought this due to it's reviews and leak proof claim. It has leaked from day one; then again maybe if we had not taken it apart to thoroughly clean then maybe it wouldn't leak. Of course then it would be a pretty dirty cup. On top of the leaking, it is not the easiest to put together after dismantling for cleaning. Customer Review: Might not leak but it BREAKS
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm new to the sippy cups but I've already had one that leaked. So I thought this one looked very well made. I literally had it one day when my 10 month old dropped it and broke the handle right off. We will continue our search but for now the Born Free have lasted the longest. Customer Review: Our Favorite Sippy ever.
Summary: 5 Stars
It's impossible to avoid things made in China. I don't like it either, but Thermos has been around for years, and has a long standing reputation for making good products.
After trying just about every single BPA free sippy on the market, I finally bit the bullet and bought a Foogo. One thing I will say about this, is that it's really heavy for a baby. I bought one when my son was about 9 months old and he wasn't able to hold it at that point, so I had to hold it for him. I was also worried about the valve system, as he had a hard time using cups with valves, but he took to this sippy cup fabulously, and will not use any other cup.
A word about leaks. This cup? Should not leak. The parts should come apart easily. We've never had a problem, and any time I've experienced a leak, I've been able to troubleshoot the problem by taking the lid off and usually, it was an issue of the valve not being snapped in all the way. There is a point at which a small bit of water pools in between the valve and the spout, but it's minimal, and not enough to soak your entire living room.
I love the entire Foogo line. They're durable, and they hold temperature for a long time.
