if the cap is screwed on completely no it will not. It is a sport top and thus if not pressed down completely it can leak then also. This bottle is built tougher than most of its type so the sport top may be a little difficult for them to press down all the way at first but it breaks in quickly and should not be an issue after that. Please keep in mind that from my experience in Houston that without ice this bottle will keep liquid cold (close to its original temperature) for 90 minutes to 2 hours at best. The platinum style bottle does a little better because its bag is more reflective. this one however is easier to spot and harder to lose. if the cap is screwed on completely no it will not.

It doesn't leak for us, so long as the top is secured tightly. Worked great for my kids all summer at camp - with a little ice, the water stayed cool all day.

No it does NOT leak. I love it and it comes in several sizes AND fantastic kid friendly designs that your 1st and 2nd grders wil LOVE! You will too. I use mine for bike riding and its tilted on the bike and shaken around ALOT! Never leaks although you will get some condensation

The hole is small and doesn't leak too much if you tip it upside down, but my daughter pushes the nipple on the floor (purposely) and it leaks all over. Problem is that she only will drink milk from those cups and those nipples!

As long as the lid is on tight and the lock switch is flipped, yes. I haven't had any problems with mine leaking.

I haven't had problems with leaks yet. My kids love these...don't fill them up all the way otherwise when u close them it will spill over.

No, but it hasn't been a problem. This means that it won't leak too. It's really light weight, so you can just dump it upside down to get the water out.

Ive using mine for about a year. It can be rotated and moves if you turn it. As long as it doesn't leak , I'm ok.

It does not leak at all. In regards to it being noisy, yes, it is a little noisy. It isn't ridiculously noisy though. In a quiet classroom I'm sometimes hesitant to drink from it. For lack of a better way to explain it: It makes a suction like noise as it's sucking the air back in after drinking it. Despite the slight noise, I still get complements on it and I like it a lot.

The little flip part that covers the drinking hole in the top does not seal tightly, so if the cup is turned on its side, the liquid will drip out. As others have said, this is a great thermos if it it stays upright, but if you need a complete seal, get another. Hope this helps :)

I've never had a problem with any leaking through the cap, and I always set it on its side. I do make sure that the cover is on securely, of course.

No. It leaks. I recently replaced this cup with "The Safe Sippy Cup" that I also bought with Amazon prime for 10.99 and I love the replacement.

Mine doesn't leak in my bag while walking. In a bag while chasing my preschooler it almost always leaks, so it depends on the activity.

Normally no. My kids have had about 6 Gatorade water bottles and they love them because they don't ever leak. We just got a bad one with this latest order I placed.

No. I've had it for over a year, with no leaks. My lil guy used it as a bottle with a store bought wide neck nipple, and he is now using it as a water bottle with the sippy spout.

So far my bottle has stood up to my 18 month old dropping and throwing it on our tile floor and it has not broke but it does leak when the straw is closed if the bottle is positioned with the top half down. :(

I have not had any problems with mine... Sometimes if you do not line up the bottom right when you screw them on they will leak (just like anything with a screw cap). What I noticed is that water can get stuck in the bottom (Between the white "ring" and the bottle plastic) and it seems like the bottle is leaking but its not.

I just held it upside down and it did leak. But the lid has bite marks in it from my kids... I bet it didn't do that until the bite marks.

Obviously, it is an issue based on others responses. However, I have purchased 2 of these same bottles and have not had any leakage problems. I did read a review once from an individual who suggested that making sure the back hinge of the cap is lined up with the measurement marks of the bottle, somehow, prevents it from leaking. I always place the cap on in that manner and believe that to be true--as strange as it sounds. See if that works.
