I have also used every cup there is. I don't have a favorite, but I did find that all of them started leaking after I put them in the diswasher. I think it has something to do with the steam. So, now I handwash all the cups and I don't have a problem with any of them.

We generally use (and are happy with) the playtex cups, but we've had a couple that tend to leak when on their side. My mom called the playtex customer service, and they sent her some coupons that would basically give her 4 free cups!

I live by the playtex sippy's. My daughter could throw them against the wall and they still wouldn't leak. And you can buy replacement parts for them which is always a plus.

The best soft-spout sippy we've used (as far as leak-proof) is the Avent. If your little one is ready for the hard-spout, then Playtex is by far the best. I've used those with all 3 kids & they seem to be the least likely to leak. I'm sure there are others, but these have worked great for us.

Gerber seems the most leak-proof. 2nd choice would be playtex. Any others I've tried haven't been worth the $$.

How old is your baby? My 16 month old LOVES the Gerber Sip 'n' Smile Soft spout sippy cups. Try those. They don't leak. I will NEVER use Nuby, they are TERRIBLE!!!! I even LOVE the Gerber ones. Hope this helps!

We use Playtex. They are easy to wash, you just pop off the plastic stopper, and they have never leaked.

I really like the Playtex cups as well, but you know I have had great success with those cheap little cups that are called take and toss cups. They come in a pack of four for just a couple bucks and they don't leak at all. I think the early years brand makes them and you can get them at Target. I like them because when they seem a little raggedy you can feel fine tossing them and if you leave them somewhere you don't care. But for home use I really like the Playtex brand cups. Good luck!

Playtex are amazing, I completely have to agree with all the other moms! We bought some and they never leak, you can't wash the valves in the lid, they fall out in the dishwasher, but I just place them in my utensil container, and it works just fine. Our favorite thing is that the lids are interchangeable with all size cups. We bought our daughter the 7 0z, but she's not yet ready for no handles, so we put those lids on and it works great.
Good luck!!

I have bought several different brands. My son is 10 months now and we are using the Gerber brand. Its age apperoperate. I am not sure if your not screwing them on tight enough or what the problem is. I also use nuk with the clear soft tops and they dont leak. There are little notches on both sides for the to fit where the little bumps are at.Most sippy cups will say some driping might happen. But constant leaking is a problem. Best of luck.

The Gerber ones with the white valve will leak if the valve pops out. Mine do that all the time.
I've gone through every single freakin brand out there, and your best bet is the cheap Playtex ones. They leak on occassion (if it's not tightened right or the valve is a little loose), but overall, I've had the best success rate with them.

The best ones I can find (and the only ones I use) are the cheapest ones you can get at walmart..the ones with the screw on top (not the pop on top). They're Nubi's. They're usually 97 cents a piece. And my daughter loves them. I bought the pop top one by mistake so make sure you avoid those. (They're the shorter ones) The screw-ons are tall and skinny.
They do leak if left in one spot for more than a few hours, tipped over. But other than that I love them! Good luck!

Playtex makes insulator cups that are pretty good. The only time I have found that they leak is when shake HARD and it's just what ever is between the seal and the spout, which is not much. They're about $7 and only have 1 piece to remove and clean. We like them a lot.

We had the hardest time with leaky bottles... what a nightmare. But with sippy cups, we make sure to keep the little flow control valve in & we use Gerber & Playtex. I bought them at the grocery store. My son loves them & I love the fact that we are over the leaky bottles. I hated that. I ended up switching from Avent bottles to the Playtex bottles & it was something I wish I had done earlier. Another thing we learned is that these things are only meant to be used for 3 to 6 months. After that the plastic degrades from washing & heat, etc...
