Find out what our parent testers thought of the MAM Starter Cup with glow handles.

Tested by mum Kris Gibbons for the M&B Awards 2016:

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

I would definitely recommend this MAM Starter Cup with glow handles, particularly during weaning. It feels like a good quality cup, it doesn't feel like its going to fall to pieces. The spout is lovely and silky but also strong enough to withstand teeth. The design is really nice and it does not spill water everywhere when it’s tipped upside down.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

It is a good cup for my son to drink water from, it’s lightweight enough for my son to hold. The water doesn't go everywhere so I can leave it in the car seat with him.

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

I dont think I would change anything about the MAM Starter Cup with glow handles, it’s my favorite cup at the moment.

Tested by mum Fleur Bryant for the M&B Awards 2016:

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

I really liked this beaker. Having tried around 15 different ones trying to get my 6 month old breastfed baby on to a beaker, this is the only one that we are having some success with. It is a good size for a 6 month old to hold and not too heavy when filled with water. The colour and design is attractive.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

Getting my son to drink water from anything has been a major issue in the past month for me. This is starting the process now and I hope this means it can lead to a point that he is drinking a good quantity of fluid so that I can begin to reduce breastfeeding

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

It would be good to have measurements on the MAM Starter Cup with glow handles beaker so that you can tell if they have drunk anything and if so how much.

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?

The MAM Starter Cup with glow handles comes in lovely complimentary colours to suit gender. Easy to clean as the cup can be taken apart into 5 pieces. My little one loves to hold on to the cup himself and the handles are sympathetic for his little hands. This is the perfect starter cup as it encourages development and independance.

How does this product make your life easier as a mum?

Many cups claim to be non spill. But after a while they begin to leak. The MAM cup really is leak free, as only when suction is applied do the contents come through the spout. The handles are great for little one to do it himself and the size of the bottle is perfect as it isn't too heavy. The handle can also be placed on any future cups from MAM.

If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?

More colours would be great.
