Baby Products Reviews of Momma Rocking Cup with Straw and Dual Handle, Green
Customer Review: best sippy in the history of ever!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Edited August 16th 2010:
I just bought one of these and I think I am in love. Finally, a straw sippy the boy can't use to shake juice out onto the carpet! Basically, the soft straw ends in four points that curve together to form a nub-like closure at the end, which operates much like a valve. So, the boy has to bite down on the straw to open it. (I notice another poster disagrees with my description, so I have revised for clarity. It is possible to get liquid out without biting by sucking pretty hard to open the four-point valve, but it's only a tiny dribble compared to what one gets by biting down on the straw. I tried it myself. If the poster's sippy came with a straw that had only an ordinary straw end, either it is defective, or they have dramatically changed the design since I bought mine and Amazon should revise the picture, which still shows the nub-like ending I describe.)
At any rate, if the boy upends the sippy and tries to shake the juice out of the straw, there is not enough pressure on the valve, so it doesn't open and the juice doesn't spill. Genius!! I also like the styling and shape - no matter how carelessly he discards it, it almost always rights itself.
I continue to love this sippy, but I do wish to add: When the pressure balance inside the sippy goes badly off, the liquid inside will bubble up around the interior valve, which is inside the upper part of the cup. So, we have had a few instances of leaking around the top edge of the cup since I posted my review. It's only happened three times - once when the kid left the darn thing in the sun for just ages (and the contents got warm and expanded), and both flights when we took it on a plane trip. This can be easily fixed by unscrewing the top and screwing it back down to relieve the back-pressure, but I can see how some might consider that a nuisance.
I still think it is way better than any other cup I've tried. I will just make a mental note to take my second favorite cup on plane trips instead.
Edited again (september 21) to add:
My son chewed the soft straw all to hell, as the little ones do. It's a pricey sippy, so I wasn't going to buy a whole new cup. I just wanted to buy a replacement straw. After trying unsuccessfully to just purchase a replacement part online, I called Ginsey's customer service line (800 257-7844). The nice lady there took down my information and promised to mail a replacement... at no charge. A+++ customer service.
(Ours picks up color from OJ, too, but I soak it overnight in a bleach solution once every couple of weeks and that keeps it good enough for me. Plus, I figure it doesn't hurt to sterilize it occasionally.)
