Nuby Sippy Cup Replacement Spouts - Help Save Our Landfills!

!±8± Nuby Sippy Cup Replacement Spouts - Help Save Our Landfills!

Nuby replacement spouts are products are made by the well known and respected company called Luv 'n Care. One of their most popular products is the 10 ounce Nuby sippy cup. It comes in an assortment of bright colors and has a no spill, no drip, soft, silicone spout that babys and toddlers alike seem to like to drink from and yes, chew on.

Time after time again, parents and grandparents would toss away their toddler's favorite cups which are made of a non-toxic plastic. That was such a waste in many ways. Nuby decided it was time to make at least one nuby replacement spout. They chose the 10 oz sippy cup because it is their best selling cup. Now Nuby sippy cup lovers all over the world no longer have to throw away their 10 oz cups. All they have to do is replace the spouts.

If the cups are so great, why do the spouts wear out? Just like any other silicone product, when it is used repeatedly, it begins to wear through normal use. Toddlers rarely use the Nuby sippy cup normally when they decide that it should become their new favorite chew toy. The spouts are nice and soft and as the toddler squeezes the spouts between his/her teeth and uses it to chew on, after time, the spout will start to drip. That's a sure sign that the spout needs to be replaced.

It is very important to check the Nuby spouts regularly (just as you should your baby's pacifier) to make sure the spout is not beginning to get worn. If it is leaking it is a sure sign that the spout needs to be replaced.

Nuby has made replacing the spouts on the 10 oz cups very convenient. Although hard to find in most stores, the nuby replacement spouts are available on Ebay and in some select Walmarts and Sears stores nationwide. They come two in a package. It's a good rule of thumb to keep several on hand, especially if your child is teething or chewing on the spouts.

The spouts are inexpensive. Now there is no need to toss away the plastic cup into the landfill or recycle bin. The cups can be used over and over again with the new spouts. Changing them is as simple as popping one out and popping the next one in. Just make sure you put water in the sippy cup with the new spout on it to make sure the seals are lined up properly so the liquid doesn't leak out around the rim of the lid.

Some Nuby lovers are just waiting for Nuby to come out with other sizes of replacement spouts and even the rims that sometimes get lost. So far there is no word from Luv n Care that they are planning on manufacturing any other sizes in the near future.

Nuby Replacement Spouts

!±8± Nuby Replacement Spouts

I am a grandmother who has used Nuby sippy cups for many years and my family and I think they are the best for price and functionality.  I was throwing out the sippy cups when the spouts would wear out and I felt badly about doing so because it takes plastic many years to dissolve in landfills.  Then I discovered that Luv 'n Care, the manufacturer of Nuby products, came out with Nuby replacement spouts for their 10 oz Nuby sippy gripper cups. 

The newest nuby replacement spouts are a better quality of silicone and as such, they seem to be stronger and hold up for a longer period of time. The older spouts were a bit softer and the spout valves seemed to break more easily. There were no reinforcements on the inside of the spout like there are now. In addition, the spouts are made of silicone and are BPA or bisphenol A free.

The Luv n Care company still requests that parents closely monitor their children while they are using the Nuby sippy cup replacement spouts. If a baby or toddler is teething, they have a tendency to chew on the spouts. In turn, although the spouts are touted as being leak proof and spill proof, once the spout valve is broken inside, the sippy cups will begin to leak.

Having personally used these sippy cups for my children and now for my newest grand child who is now 13 months old, I have tried numerous times to make the cups leak. They did leak when I put the lid on wrong. The new Nuby replacement spouts have notches on them. Those notches have to line up with the notches that are on the rim of the lid that screws onto the sippy cup. If you don't line up the notches and you don't screw the lid on correctly, you may have a problem. Otherwise, I have tried to make these sippy cups leak by shaking them rather violently and they do not leak if you follow the directions.

The Nuby replacement spouts seemed to last about a month when my granddaughter started teething and had actual teeth erupting. I always check the spout valves now to make sure she isn't breaking them as she bites and I never leave her alone with any sippy cup. I don't want her to choke on her milk either.

The Nuby replacement spouts are very hard to find but there may be some Walmart stores carrying them and if not, some of the Baby Depot Stores within Burlington may carry them. Other wise, you can find them on the internet by visiting the resource box below.

If you ever purchase any Nuby product that you have a problem with, Luv n Care customer service is wonderful and they will make every attempt to help correct the problem. You can reach them at their corporate offices in writing or by phone at:
