Does the straw have quick flow? My one year old gets frustrated easily with having to put in a lot of effort. Thanks!

It's the easiest sip cup among my more than ten different ones. I tried every cup and usually I cut the valves a little bit to make the flow easier.

No valve my daughter doesn't struggle while drinking her juice or milk. I love this cup especially for my little preschooler. My daughter is only 2 years old and she seems to have no problems with this cup. I also bought matching back pack and lunch box. I say go for it

Your child regulates how fast or slow they get the milk from these bottle/nipples. I would not recommend starting out with the slow flow just because the child would more than likely get frustrated.

Definitely no spill, but a little difficult for my daughter to drink out of at a year. You have to suck really hard and she wasn't interested.

Not at all, mine was only 18mths and she already using straw to drink perfectly well.

Yes. The straw comes out and it can be tipped back to drink. My 3 year old and 10 month old use it with ease.

I have not had an issue with spills or leaking unless my daughter pinches the straw and turns the cup upside down, which she's only done once! Otherwise it's been really effective!

No! I like it put at times the straw is awkward. Very hard plastic and hard to pull up to use.

I think this Standard Flow is equivalent to Slow Flow. I used it for my son since Nb. My other kids (2yo & 3yo) uses this as well and they dont complain about the flow. Looks like it expands the more it's used making the flow from slow to medium. I hope this helps.

The cup has 2 slits vs. 1 tiny hole that a bottle has. However, if your child is like mine and likes to bite a hole on this Nuk cup, then you could say that the cup DEFINITELY has a faster flow!

No straw and the spout opening mechanism is a little tough to maneuver at first, but has gotten easier with use. My 4 year old is able to work it, but my 2 year can't.

Yes, it is kinda different because you actually have to suck on the cup to get the liquid out. A child should b able to do this. My 12 month old can drink out of this cup, but he turned it upside down and it spilled out. I don't know if I didn't put it together right or if I got a faulty cup.

This product comes with an internal straw that attaches to the valve mechanism (also a separate piece) and is slightly narrower than a normal/standard straw. The length is slightly under 5 inches and the opening is about 4 mm. For just learning, this is a slightly more restricted flow which I find is helpful for littles ones. My son sometimes chokes on the products with the larger diameter straws since it allows too much liquid per sip. Love this cup over most of the other ones out there. P.S. The OXO brush set (3 pieces) works well to clean all my straws.

It's good flow but for a "sippy cup". Not really comparable to a bottle. I have 3 of the nuk ones and they are my little ones favorite, even at 21 months old. Hope this helps.

At five months my son could finally use this bottle. Previously it Took too much suction and time for him to get it "primed" and flowing. He can use it no problem now. I wanted it for hands free use so I could multitask. About the time he was able to use it, he could hold his own regular bottle. Now I don't need it.

If you really want to make these bottles work, you could use a thin exact type knife and score out the valve on the inside of the straw, coming in from the top. Cutting out the two pieces that are about 1/2" from the top would remove the restriction from inside. As you wash these bottles though, the rubber becomes softer and you'll get more flow anyway. However, if your kiddo is at the point where he's needing more volume out of the straw, you may want to look for a bottle that has a hard straw. Now that mine is a little older, we use cups with lids and a hard straw that has a rubber ring around it to keep it sealed. Nuby soft tops aren't known to be long lasting bottles after all. Good luck!

Yes. Mine leaks horribly! Even after she drinks out of it and I relieve the pressure. The milk always creeps up the straw. I sent the company an email about it and am awaiting a response.
