I use stainless steel or glass straws. Is the opening flexible enough that I could still use them?

Nope...but you could probably get away with cutting a hole in the cuppow to modify it, but it's intended to be a sipper without a straw.

They sell a version with a straw hole. Same company/size and all, but with the extra hole.

No. You would have to use a Dremel or something similar to widen the opening

Hello,Yes, they can be used in Cuppow lids. Cuppow's website http://www.cuppow.com/pages/faq#straw-size states: Any standard size flexible straws will work with both wide and regular mouth lids; rigid straws are limited to 0.24" [or 6mm] in outer diameter. The best fitting stainless steel straws at this time are made by Endurance and are available online in multiple lengths and bends.Please let me know if you need further assistance.RaquelReuseit Customer Service

It should accept most plastic and stainless straws, and some smaller diameter glass straws!

I've only used the brush with these straws: Endurance Stainless Steel Drink Bent Straws (Set of 4)But the bristles are not terribly stiff and seem to collapse well inside the straw.

Yes! The lids are interchangeable for the clear and stainless cups. My son prefers the clear so it's nice to have an extra lid/straw available from our stainless set.

No I'm sorry you can not get a straw through the opening, it is more of a slit on top rather then a hole as an opening ~ Trish

They are a nice, heavy glass, so they don't break easily. At first, they feel a little wide between your lips, but then you get used to it.I never use plastic straws at home anymore. And I use these in all my to-go cups, too. I bought new, glass, to-go cups, with wider openings to fit the glass straws.

I don' think so. The straws are wider than plastic straws. You will never go back to plastic!

Yes, I believe it would be. The opening of the straw is just the size of a Skittles candy...if that helps :-)

I think so. The current straw fits snuggly, so if you position it up from the bottom it does not slide back down.

They are nice straws but they are quite big around so I think you would have to be very careful not to draw up to much liquid so you don't burn your mouth. They work great for smoothies and those type of beverages. Hope this helps...

Can't answer because I have never used stainless steel straws; however, I have had these for quite sometime and they are still like new. I expect they will last a very long time. As long as stainless steel? Not sure but I would say it will be many years before they are no longer useful.

You probably could put a standard plastic straw through the opening. Although, if you're transporting the container to-from work, you might consider a plastic double-walled cup instead of a glass one.

I use the regular straws you by in a pack at the grocery store and they work fine. The hole is small.

I don't know about endurance ones, but I have stainless steel straws and they fit.

NO! I have 8 of these. Straw is reg straw size. Won't accommodate thick beverages. Also, it would create mold in straw. These are fantastic for normal liquids and fit in my car's cup holder.

They should work, as long as the lid has a hole in it, they are just stand plastic straws.
