Baby Products Reviews of Playtex Insulator Cup 9 oz - 2 Pack,Colors and Design Vary
Customer Review: Playtex is the Gold Standard in Sippies
Summary: 5 Stars
We have been using Playtex sippies for about four years now, for two children and they are by and large the best of all that we've tried.
There are other attractive models out there, but they tip over easily (what marketing genius thought a narrower at the bottom than at the top design was a good idea!) and don't last. The plastic that they are made out of is hard and it eventually cracks-- dropped or from dishwasher wear.
The Playtex models (either insulated or not) stay upright (most of the time LOL) and are easily cleaned by hand or in a dishwasher.
(Hand tested on vacation and at nana's.)
The only thing that we have done to maintain them is to replace the valve thingies as they will start to age after a year or so and leak despite what other reviewers have said. These replacement valves are cheap though and no problem to find.
As to insulation, they insulate to a limited extent but don't expect to have your milk stay good for more than an hour or so in a hot environment. (Tested in Florida, Texas, and Virginia.)
Five Stars. The best that we have used and we have tested just about everything on the market.
Customer Review: The best, drip-free sippy bottle for kids
Summary: 5 Stars
After becoming completely frustrated with leaky sippy cups, we went on a buying spree to find a sippy cup that would not drip. The lone cup that passed the test? The Playtex Insulator! We are still using two of the very first Playtex Insulators that we bought at our local grocery store around 2 years ago, and they do not leak. Some other relevant features:
--The top (mouthpiece) is plastic, not rubber, which means our toddler has not yet been able to chew or bite any holes in it. Our kid destroyed many other rubbery-style sippy cups simply by biting through them.
--There are two holes under the mouthpiece cap and they are each plugged with a single, sturdy silicone valve thing. This simple design seems to be part of why the thing just doesn't drip or leak.
--Yes, it actually insulates. Hot or cold drinks stay that way for maybe two hours.
--I believe it's dishwasher safe. We've run it through without mishap. The underside of the mouthpiece can be a little tricky to clean by hand, but it's a small price to pay for sippy cup perfection.
Customer Review: Not the same as they used to be
Summary: 1 Stars
Playtex has a new "Twist-n'-click" top on these now and they are impossible to use. I really mean impossible. You're supposed to twist the cap on far enough for the little arrow to line up with an indicator for a leak proof fit. First, you can't even screw it on enough to get to that indicator and second, you can't remove the top once it is on!! My husband can't even remove it! I thought maybe it was not screwed on straight, but that is not the case. I can't believe they changed the design of the top (which isn't reflected in the picture of the product here). We have several of these cups with the old style lid and loved them. They never leak, so I don't know why they changed them to this unusable style.Customer Review: HEALTHY FOR BABY, LESS MESS FOR YOU!
Summary: 5 Stars
Playtex sippy cups are BY FAR the BEST sippy cups! I have used others by Gerber and Avent- which both leaked! Playtex will never leave you scrubbing milk/juice stains out of your carpet- or your kids' clothes!
The insulated cup keeps fluids fresher longer, which makes this the HEALTHIEST cup delivering optimum nutrients and nutrition for your child! This feature is particularly nice if your child sips a little here and a little there- esp. MILK which spoils quickly.
I have bought this cup over and over again- not because it has worn out, but because I want several for our home, grandparents' home, diaper bag, etc.
VERY PLEASED WITH THIS PRODUCT!
Customer Review: Definately the BEST sippy cups...
Summary: 5 Stars
We have tried about every cup on the market and these Playtex cups are by far the best. They truly are spill-proof (trust me, they are tested on a daily basis at our house!) and easy to clean without a lot of complicated pieces. Replacement valves are easy to find and inexpensive too. The cups hold up wonderfully in the dishwasher and can take all a toddler can dish out. We have never had one break or crack in 8 years. My kids all have an easy time getting liquid out of the cups and I love the new designs...very cute! These are the only cups I will ever buy. Save yourself time and money and stick with these tried and true cups, you will not be disappointed.
