Drinking Water

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

I have 10 month old twins and was thrilled to find these cups at REI. They are so new, you can't find them anywhere else.

What I LOVE:
(1) Lid has a carabiner allowing clip on to bags, stroller, anything.
(2) the lid can be adjusted many ways to allow liquid to flow at different rates depending on how advanced your child is at drinking. Here's how, first the inside cup has two plastic inserts that make it a no-drip cup IF that is what you want. Remove them & the water flows more freely but still requires a little sucking on the kids part. Next, the handles come off for older drinkers. Finally, the lid can be replaced with a pop-up spout like a water bottle; part of the company's "A-B-C Modular Drinking System". The versatility is WONDERFUL so when I have no patience to teach them to "sip" I put the no drip parts in the inside lid.

What I don't like: (1) my kids' noses hit the carabiner, though it is split into two plastic pieces allowing the nose to have some room (2) REI doesn't carry the pop-up spout top in the stores

In the end, I haven't decided if I am going to keep these...but oh so close to a winning 10!

Strange smell and silicone ring stained?

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

Bought this for my 2 year old for his milk - it was great. But, after a few months of use, the silicone ring at top of the lid started to have a strange stain (rust color), and then I noticed a horrible smell after washing the cup and let it dry - smell coming from the inner silicone rim of the cup. Doesn't seem to affect my son's taste buds for his milk, but stopped using it none the less and wrote to the company to ensure this was still safe for my child - a bit scary for a child's product to do this!

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

Received this as a gift for my daughter's 1st birthday. I do not like it all, but don't live anywhere near an REI store to return it. Water bottle leaks so much I can't use it, and the awkward lid design makes it unusable for the carseat. I would definitely NOT recommend this to anyone - waste of money!

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

This cup leaks, and the flow control rubber valve falls out. Ours was lost (because it kept falling out) and we can't find another one. The cup is now worthless - [$] wasted!

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

Not a good design at all and not really worth the money. Not spill proof and the design is really faulty. The top of the cup hits my 8 month old's nose. His nose goes between the slots, but it plugs his nose and squeezes it. It also leaks. This is not a leak proof cup. And it does not have a cap for the spout, so you have to make sure to keep it up the whole time and if you take it camping, you also have to worry about dirt getting into the bottle. The only good thing, is that it keeps the water cold and it doesn't make the water taste funny or plastic.

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

I was initially very excited about this canteen. It isn't all plastic and it keeps water cold. Unfortunately, like other reviewers have stated, there is no room for your child's nose. Also, your child only has to drop it once for it to break. That was a big disappointment considering the age group it is marketed towards. Reshape the lid and make it more durable and I'd reconsider!

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

I like the stainless steel and it's ability to transition but it leaked from under the screw top from the beginning and had too many valve pieces to get lost. After two weeks, one of the valve peices also tore, after which liquid just poured out.

This is a complete waste of money. Your baby will not be able to use this because their nose will hit the top. We had to simply throw this cup away.

Feeding babies

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

We have fought with our baby trying to get him to accept milk from a bottle in anticipation of day care... but happily gave up after we tried the me-me sippy. He drank from this, no fuss, no mess. It didn't drip when upside down, at least not yet. His nose does poke into the carabiner (but he doesn't seem to mind...yet) and it would be nice if we could get replacement lids (or better yet, replacements for the silicone bits inside the lids) somewhere, but I'm just happy my kid won't starve at daycare! We also like the colors and size, and that we can use different lids later, extending its life.

Comments about Innate Me-Me Gripper Stainless-Steel Sippy Cup - 7.5 oz.:

I bought this cup for my 12 month old son who likes to throw things thinking that a stainless steel cup would be perfect for him because he wouldn't be able to destroy it like a plastic one. NOT!! In the two days that I had the cup he has already broken the spout off of it. Now what do I do with a [$] cup that I thought was indestructible?? The other thing I didn't like was that the flow plugs kept falling out.If your child doesn't throw things, this might be a good cup for you. I did like how cold it kept the water.
