The Safe Sippy and Klean Kanteen Sippy Cup

The Safe Sippy and Klean Kanteen Sippy Cup are my next products up for review. I choose to look at these together because they have a lot of similarities yet offer some unique features. Let's start with the similarities. Either of these cups are a smart choice due to the consideration in materials used. Both are made of stainless steel which, to be brief, is durable, non toxic and resistance to staining or corrosion. The lids are made of polypropylene #5 plastic. This is a very stable plastic and free of Bisphenol A, phthalates and DEHA. The choice to use a plastic mouth piece was made by both companies due to the fact that teeth and stainless steel do not mix well - ouch!! Klean Kanteen offers a screw on stainless steel top if preferred .

Boo has able to hold both bottles easily. I found the Klean Kanteen to be slightly easier to drink from - it seemed like Boo also had an easier time with it. The spouts are very different though so that could be a factor (I'll get to that more later).


The Safe Sippy, as you can see, is brightly colored. It also comes in blue or teal with orange handles and top. The handles are removable for continued use as your child grows. The spout is no-leak and shaped like a straw to promote good speech development. The sleeve around the stainless steel "body" is made of thermo plasticized rubber which helps insulate the cup. I found the lid to be a bit tricky to put on the first few times. I wasn't sure if I should push it on or screw it on. This did lead to a big spill but after I figured out it's a combination, push and then screw, the lid was very secure. This cup retails for $14.95.

The Klean Kanteen Sippy Cup comes in one style with two sippy adapter spouts. The adapter spouts are no-leak and made by Avent.



Klean Kanteen also sells a variety of other accessories, including sports caps, screw on lids and larger sized bottles (up to 40 oz). The sippy adapter sits inside the rim and screws on easily. This cup retails for $17.95 (includes 2 sippy adapter spouts).

Both websites offer extensive information on the importance of providing safe, fun products. I was impressed by both and the quality of their product.
