Nuby flip n sip?

How in the eff does this cup work? DH threw out the packaging and I can't figure out how to use it. The straw looks closed up unless you squeeze it. Are they supposed to bite it when they drink? I'm so confused.

  • Yea you have to kind of pucker your lips to open it.  It's weird.  I bought it but DD hates straws and it's even hard for me to get any liquid out of it so it's sitting in my kitch cabinet.

    Agreed - we tried it a few times too but it is really awkward to get anything out, even for me. We have 2 just sitting in our cupboard.

  • I hate those Nuby flip straw cups.  I couldn't even get them to work! I found another kind (can't remember the name, i think its playtex) that has a flip straw that is soooo much better!

  • Did you get a bad batch...?  DS has that kind for water and he doesn't have any problems.  Maybe you should cut the slit a little if your DC can't get anything out.

    A word of warning:  take the straws apart at least once every week or two and clean them well, otherwise they WILL get moldy.

  • It is very hard to get anything out of it.  I couldn't even do it.  It is sitting in the cupboard with the other 10 that she won't drink out of.

  • That's funny - this is the only cup DD will drink out of.  You do have to bite the straw a little, but she doesn't have any problem with it.  She also likes the Camelbak bottles (she started drinking out of mine - that's how we figured out she liked this kind of cup).
