Nuby Thirsty Kids No Spill Flip-It Active Stainless Steel Travel Cup or Water Bottle - 14 Oz -

This is the cutest and perfectly sized tumbler. The fun, charming whales are adorable! It's very durable, but best for slightly older toddlers and up, as it's not completely spill-proof and definitely drips if you flip it up and down while the lid is open. Though not an issue for me, I'd imagine it might dent if thrown around by a small child. The bottle holds the perfect amount of water and the silicone spout is super comfortable to drink from. I was looking for a plastic-free option and love that this, aside from the inner straw attachment, (which is plastic, but doesn't touch the mouth) fits that bill. Easy to disassemble for washing, scrubbing down and happy it doesn't have any inaccessible nooks or crannies for mold to hide in. Great, compact water bottle that can go anywhere and is easy to carry! Read more

My now 20-mo LOVES opening and closing and drinking from this water bottle. He’s not super aware with setting it upright and it does dribble out if the lid isn’t clicked shut. But it’s a much slower leak than a sippy cup (without a valve) or a regular open cup/water bottle so I still count it as a win! Just don’t leave them alone with it in the carseat or your backseat will be soaked when you get to your destination ><. Starting to get a little dented/chipped paint from all the drops but that’s inevitable. Overall pretty sturdy and toddler adores it. Read more

I do really love a lot about this water bottle. The design is adorable. The size is perfect for my 14 month old. The insulation is good. It is durable (though the paint chipped a little when dropped outside). The straw is easy to get to. When closed, there is no problem with leakage. However, I was hoping this would be non spill even with the lid up. The straw is designed that way, and the straw itself is non spill. But the silicone insert that holds the straw in place, has a tiny little hole, which, if the bottle is turned upside down, will leak quite significantly. I found this out after my toddler had been holding the bottle in his lap and was then drenched. Now I just make sure to correct how my toddler is holding it, so it's not necessarily a big deal, but something to be aware of if non spill is a key factor in your search. Even still, I am happy with this purchase and would buy again in the future. Read more

The media could not be loaded. I bought this cup for the little girl pictured. Her parents and I love this cup for many reasons. True to the listing, it really is a no spill cup. I have seen this cup on more than one occasion correct itself in a tricky situation. We all know it only takes a second for a drink spill to happen especially with dogs and little ones running around together. With this cup, I at least don't have to worry about the drink spilling. You can focus your efforts elsewhere. I also love that it actually keeps drinks cold for hours, even in the crazy Florida heat! It's great for any situation. I use it whenever we go to the playground and I transfer any drink she gets straight to this cup the moment I can (You can see her cup pictured with her Mcdonalds meal - transferred the kids meal drink directly to the cup). Kid approved as well... She happily drinks out of it every meal when she's with me. The cup fits in a 2 yr olds hand perfect! The design is cute to. Clean up is simple and easy. Definitely would recommend! Read more

My wife bought this because she wanted a thermal cup to keep our daughter's beverages warm when we go out to the zoo or wherever. To be honest, I haven't even looked at the product listing myself to check its claims, but regardless, the packaging itself claims to have thermal properties. The cup itself had a big warning sticker on it saying the liquids inside might be hot. I'm not sure how they can claim any of these things, because this cups thermal properties are worse than neutral. It's basically just a very thin, cheap metal cup. As soon as you pour anything even slightly warm into it, the cup itself gets super hot to the point of being uncomfortable, yet the drink might still feel too cool in the mouth. Our daughter makes crazy faces from the heat of touching this thing long before the liquids inside would ever even come close to burning her. I actually think it can be somewhat of a safety hazard if you pour something too hot into it, because this thing is like a superconductors. The one saving grace is that it's the perfect size for our daughter now (she's approaching 14 months), so she loves drinking out of it much more than her old cup. She's still too young for gravity-fed sippy cups, but the cups she had before had quite a bit of assisting capillary action going on, which was great for when she was a smaller baby, but made it extremely easy to spill everywhere as she got older. This cup does spill a few drops here and there whenever she swings it around or drops it, but it's minimal, yet the straw works very well for sucking up liquids from the bottom, so I'd say it's a good balance between ease of use and cleanliness. Another plus is that the hinge mechanism doesn't get nearly as much gunk stuck in it as the previous cups, which means it should stay relatively sanitary for longer. So, would I recommend this? Only if you're looking for a decent toddler cup that won't spill too much and don't care at all about thermal insulation. You should absolutely not expect this to keep drinks warm, and in fact, I think it might cool them down faster than a typical plastic cup because the metal heats up so fast. Read more

We have had 2 of these water bottles now. They hold up very well. Ended up getting the second one since we let our toddler walk around outside with it and she would toss it on the pavement. She is older now and has learned to stop tossing it. Lots of use, totally worth the money. Easy to keep clean. Read more

I bought this to add to our collection of Nuby straw cups that we already own. They are absolutely leak proof and using anything that is stainless steel over plastic is a win for me! The cup can get pretty cold on the outside which may be uncomfortable for some little ones to hold onto, but my daughter just holds her cup by the lid or the handle. I also love that it can be hooked onto her backpack or my diaper bag. Best cup ever!! Read more
