    Can anyone recommend a decent beaker/training cup that doesn't leak!!!

    Tried Avent, Tommy Tippee and Nuby and all of them leak. Its a nuisance.
    We need one with a controlled flow ie not free flowing.
    Let me know if ye found one :-)

    We had the same issue. The Annabel Karmel cups were good enough. We just decided to accept the spills in the end. He wasn't long getting the hang of it.

    He has his drinks at the table mostly but we have a tommee tippee sport cup that has a straw. It doesn't leak. It's not the easiest to get the hang of for novices!

    Is the free-flowing completely out? I ask because I tried a whole pile of them with valves that were non-spill and they just ended up annoying the bejayus out of my young fella. It's hard to beat the old-fashioned TT beakers - they won't leak in your bag, you can close the spout and they can be fired around the place.
