My wee one love those. We use them on everyday basis as a sipper or as cus as we trying to teach him to drink from cup. 2 handles are easy to hold and he can easily tip it.
Easy for baby to hold by the two handles, free flowing for muscle development around lips
Weaknesses:
Lid is really hard to get off!

Our 6 month old has taken to using this cup really easily. She held it by the two handles straight away and lifted it to her mouth, as she does with every new object. She just needed a little helping nudge to realise that she gets water from it when it tilts and now she's able to drink from it quite well at mealtimes.
We've found it easy to clean the cup and also the spout as long as we wash that part straight away so food doesn't get left in it. It is difficult to get the lid off, which is good I suppose to stop babies pouring the entire contents over themselves in one go, but we've had to run it under warm water to loosen the lid each time which wouldn't be convenient if we were using it out and about.
It may be a basic little cup but it comes in attractive colours, is easy for babies to hold and use independently and is free flow which is recommended by health visitors for developing the muscles around the mouth that are used for speech. Don't get this cup if you don't want it to spill as there isn't an option to change the flow (no valve etc) but if you want a reasonably priced cup for weaning at home I'd recommend this one.
These are perfect for a first cup and introducing your baby to water.
The two handles help them to grasp and hold it themselves, slowly letting them feed themselves.

Great simple first cup. My little boy finds it easy to hold and drink from now he has the hang of it . So easy to clean nolittle bits to clean or collect build-up dirt like I found happened with other drinker. The lid is a little stiff to get off to start with but gets better over time. I definitely recommend to other parents and carers . I have all swapped to these in toddlers room at work as use with out lids as well.
My son gets on really well with this cup & has done since we introduced it at 6 months however I find it not that great - first of all there's no lid so I worry about how hygienic it is & I can't take it out & about with us as can't just pop it in my bag for risk of leaking. I also find the lid really hard to get off!
Simple, good design, however if knocked over with the tip up, will spill.
The lid is stiff to get on and off, however this means baby can’t pull off (and does get easier over time)
Simple and good value for money, however is have a baby who likes to shake their objects... liquid will come out the tip
This simple design is a great no frills introduction to using a sippy cup, my baby has used this since 4 months and only struggled slightly to tip his head correctly at first .
Perfect for at home and can transition into a normal cup at a later stage .
I love this item. I have at least 5 of these for my daughter and I'm always tempted to buy more every time I see a different colour! Great value for money. Simple and easy to use, lid can sometimes be a little difficult to get off but I would say that is a pro as that means little ones can't take the lid off with ease! Will most likely buy more of these once baby number 2 is here.
This is a good cup for when your at home watching your child. However as soon as you tip upside down there is no stoppage for the liquid so it all comes out. Would probably be better for an older child. Apart from that it is a good price for what it is.
These are a great simple first cup. Baby can easily get liquid, he does however like to shake it and make lots of mess. There’s no lid or cap for the end so it’s not s practical cup to carry about with a drink. Best for mealtimes.
Recommended by health visitors and it is a basic cup which I didn’t like when my toddler starting using as he would shake it and spill it everywhere but now I love it and no fiddly bits to clean just straightforward.
The only issue is always a little left at the bottom he can’t get out so we remove the lid then but suppose gives him some training on a proper cup.

This cup has been ideal for mines, when it came to learn how to drink from a cup. It's a free-flow, which means that it will leak if tipped. Happy with that, funnily enough. My children got the hang of it fairly soon and seemed to find the design ideal for grip and use. Only flow, taking off the lid is hard work and the small holes of the mouthpiece make me double-think about hygiene.
My son loves this cup, it has taught him how to drink himself as he was a bit lazy with the others. I like that they are different colours as we use them for different drinks, he know his green one for water a red one for Apple juice in the morning.
It is a bit hard to take the lid off and if there's any bit of water left it goes everywhere when you pull it apart.
Leaks and it’s really hard to get the lid on sometimes

We’ve tried so many sippy cups and I still can’t get my son to pick them up, he’s so lazy!
This on is really easy for him to use(as long as I hold it for him) as it’s free flowing so he doesn’t get fed up trying to get the water out.
The spout flips down when not in use which is supposed to stop it leaking but ours still leaks a little.
The main negative that I have is getting the lid on, it’s really difficult and it leaks really bad if it’s not on 100%, when you do eventually get it on the pressure of pushing it down causes the water to spill out of the top.
Still one of the best I’ve found though
brought this cup for my little one i found its great for babys hands to hold and very light but when you fill it up the lid keeps lifting up when trying to push on it also leaks if baby is shaking the cup about or left upside down.
My son loves these cups. They teach him to give himself his drink and he loves to be independent.
They do leak when upside down which can be a pain as my son likes to do it himself and can't always hold it upright.
Overall it is a great product and very practical
Excellent product long lasting easy to clean. Fits child's hands well not too heavy. Doesn't overly leak unless left upside down and open for a long time. Plastic does become worn after a few throws. Basic but hygienic product
air lock can cause fluid to squirt out of lid as you push it on

We were given this at our 10 month health visitor check and it has been great. Free flow cup, easy for babies to use. Lots of colour choices. Washes well. Not expensive. have found when pushing lid on liquid can squirt out. Otherwise a great free flow cup. Flip lid down to transport and hasn't leaked in our bag yet.
It’s great for teaching little ones to drink from cup but it does leak and lip pops off when dropped only slightly.
It’s hard to keep the clean in the tip.
Easily chewed by little ones as well
My daughter went from bottles to this beaker straight away with no fuss. It’s light weight so easy for her to pick up. It’s a good size and fits easily onto her trike, and when we go for walks it fits into her little backpack giving her access to a drink when she needs one. She likes the bright colours of the beakers as we have a few. They are dishwasher safe which makes them easy to clean.
The health visitor recommended this product to me and said it is the best cup for little ones. My little one is 6month old and have just started giving her water. The only bad thing is that it is messy as it isn't a none spill cup.
The Tommee Tippee 190ml essentials first cup is the ideal way to help your little one transition from bottle to beaker for the very first time. It features convenient handles for baby to grip onto and a flip-up spout for hygiene and convenience.
