Our Analysis

These adorable snack cups are made of stainless steel and a removable food grade silicone top. Great for toddlers, this snack cup's innovative top allows them to reach in through the lid and grab snacks themselves, while protecting from spills if tipped over. Free of phthalates, BPA, or other toxic chemicals, this multi-use unbreakable cup can work as a traveling snack cup, but also as a bowl for meals at home. The easy-to-hold side handles are perfect for little toddler fingers, too.

At 3.5" tall and 4" wide, with a 16 oz. capacity, these snack cups hold quite a bit as well. And you can clean the Eco Vessel Gobble N Go Snack Cups in the dishwasher. In our testing we've found them to be durable, and unlike some other snack cups the silicone lid retains its shape and flexibility even after years of use.

The cup comes in cute painted versions as well as brushed stainless. While we love the cute designs, we recommend stainless which is impervious to chipping, and thus a more durable product.

This is our favorite snack cup for toddlers. We think your little one will love how independent using one of these will make him or her feel, and you'll feel just as good knowing how safe they are for his or her health.

Note: Manufacturer recommends using this item for children 18 months and older.

Dislikes


User reviews frequently note these disadvantages:

  • Some parents feel the lid is too loose, in that it can be pulled off by a toddler. However, we find the lid to be snugly fitted, and are happy with its performance in this regard.
