Title: Great sippy cup alternative, but difficult to clean
Product review: I purchased a Klean Kanteen sippy cup (original steel color) for my toddler and after about six months of use I find it to be the best sippy cup we have tried. It does leak a bit when my son is determined to shake the liquid out, but other than that I trust that if I toss it in my bag I will arrive at my destination with dry contents. The only problems we have experienced is with cleaning. My husband put it in the dishwasher once (the product info warns against this) and water got into the inner insulating area of the bottle and we cannot get it back out. The bigger problem though is that after putting juice (mixed 1 part juice : 4 parts water) in the bottle we started getting some black mildew growing along the inside of the sippy/lid component. We have scrubbed it with a small brush, soaked it in vinegar, etc and have not satisfactorily removed the mildew. Searching for a replacement lid now, but they are very hard to find.
