Default Boon "Fluid" Cups - review

I can't find the product review forum anywhere, so I'm just posting here.

We've tried multiple cups with T since hit about 6 months, but we've had little to no success. The cups G took to, T hated, and most were simply chew toys anyway. I broke down and bought one of the boon cups (Boon Inc. - Fluid, Toddler Cup), and we've hit the jackpot!

T figured it out almost immediately, and I realized why -- it requires a similar mouth position as BFing. So, for the BFing mommas out there, it's worth a shot. T is finally drinking water out of something other than my cup, and he's almost able to do it by himself (if he weren't so fascinated by the hole in the center, he'd have it already).

Easy to hold for little hands.
Easy to clean.
No leaks (so far at least).
BpA, Phthalate, and PVC free.

Over all, love! I'm clearing out all the random cups and stocking up on these.

That's great that it works so well for you guys. I have one, but Jett isn't too fond of it. I'll have to try it again - it's been a while.

Good to know! I'm such a lazy 2nd-time mom...I haven't tried to introduce a cup at all yet. He plays with cups and sorta drinks water from them in the shower, but that's it.

C, I don't think G would have liked this one either. He preferred the nuby sports style before switching to cups with straws.

J, T initiated it. He's been drinking out of my cups since he was 4-5 months, but I want something he can do on his own (and I don't like getting soaked when he gets excited). I was pretty relaxed about it all, but now that he's pulling up/starting to cruise, he's too busy to BF most of the time. Total opposite of G.
