Storage & use 

As with most sippy cups, ours are designed to be used with milk, water or juices that don’t contain pulp. Do not fill this cup with fizzy (carbonated) beverages, formula, or hot liquids. 

It’s important that you inspect your cup before each use and DO NOT: 

  • Store or leave in direct sunlight or near a source of heat.  

  • Store with or allow to come into contact with solvents or harsh chemicals.  

  • Use in a conventional oven, a combination microwave oven or any other heating device. 

Instructions for cleaning your cup 

Before first use, disassemble and thoroughly clean.  

Place components in boiling water for 5 minutes this is to ensure hygiene (Excluding our Insulated Cups - this is not recommended).  

Clean carefully before each and every use and always wash the product immediately after use.  

1. Unscrew the lid and open the flip cap to expose the straw.  

2. Separate the straw connector, clear straw and weight. 

3. Use your thumb to push out the hard valve from under the lid  

4. Remove the silicone straw from under the lid.  

5. Wash all parts thoroughly in warm soapy water and rinse in clean water.  

Use brush included to clean straws. To prevent damage, avoid using a brush on the soft part of the valve.  

 

• Do not clean with solvents or harsh chemicals.  

• All parts can be washed in the dishwasher (top shelf only).  

• Do not allow product to come into contact with oil-based food (e.g. oil/tomato-based sauces) as staining will occur.  

• Our insulated cups and weighted straw cups are suitable for sterilisation by cold water tablet/liquid solution only. 

Instructions for reassembling your cup 

Always shake parts after washing to remove excess water and leave to air dry before re-assembling.  

Your cup could leak or be difficult to drink from if not assembled correctly as follows:  

6. Align the silicone straw and the hard valve, press together. Ensure part A of the soft side is fully pushed through the hole of the hard side. This is essential to make sure the valve functions correctly.  

7a&b. Install the silicone straw with the hard valve from under the lid, pull the straw until it clicks. Push the hard valve firmly until the three prongs lock into place.  

8. Reassemble the straw connector, clear straw and weight. Push firmly to the hard valve part and then screw lid onto cup base. 

WARNING!

For your child’s safety and health…

  • Always use this product with adult supervision. Accidents have occurred when babies have been left alone with drinking equipment due to the baby falling or if the product has disassembled.
  • Never use feeding spouts or straws as a soother.
  • Dispose of the cup at first signs of damage or weakness.
  • Keep any components that are not in use out of reach of children.
  • Never attach to cords, ribbons, laces, or loose parts of clothing. The child can be strangled.

  • Do not use the cup or any part of the cup as a toy.

Please be aware that continuous and prolonged sucking of fluids will cause tooth decay and decay can occur even when non-sweetened fluids are used.

Support FAQ's

We’re sorry that your cup is leaking! Your cup will only leak if it is not assembled correctly, and the valve is designed to be 100% leak proof, so please make sure that the cup’s valve is assembled correctly (as per the instructions above) and that the lid is secured tightly.
