My three year old son was always ruining every straw he was able to get his hands on until we got a pack of these amazing, indestructible ones. These are so cool because he can bite them and they go right back to their original shape with absolutely no wear or teeth marks whatsoever. I never have to throw away a straw again, woohoo. I don't know how many he destroyed by chomping down on them before we got these, but I am telling everyone I know with any straw biters in their homes about this awesome product. Another great thing about these straws related to my son is the straws are very wide and when put into his favorite lidded cups needing new replacement straws (he destroyed the original straws) they fit super snuggly so the lids are spill resistant.
As for my 7 month old daughter, she has been chewing on these for the past month and a straw keeps her happy and occupied when her big brother has a drink in hand. I am ok with her chewing on these straws because they are made of food-grade silicone and are not compromised by bites.
One last thing that really makes this product shine is the straws come with a special cleaning apparatus to use to clean them and thus mold won't build up inside them since you can easily scrape the insides of them during dishwashing. This is a huge plus as anyone who reuses kids cups can attest to it is hard to keep small pieces mold free for long.
Please note my husband and I do not drink from straws so I cannot speak to how great these straws are for adults other then they are easy to clean and keep clean. Also, these straws will not work with Take n Toss cups as these are too wide for their lid holes.
My personal guide to how I rate:
Five Stars = best product I've tried in this field; will enthusiastically recommend to, or buy for, family and friends. Buy this product now!
Four Stars = great product I will buy again if/when needed and will recommend if someone asks for my opinion. Yes, buy this product.
Three Stars = I like this product but will purchase something else if I can find a better option next time easily enough. Look to see if there is anything better if you have a chance before purchasing this item.
Two Stars = item works as intended but will try hard to find a better product in the future. Only buy this product if you can't find anything possibly better.
One star = if this item has a free return policy I sent it back and, if it doesn't, depending on the cost of the item and/or the cost of return shipping I may have sent it back. Do not buy this product!

High Quality Silicone Straws
I absolutely love these straws! They are a great size and I use one every day for my protein smoothies. They are high quality, durable, and easy to clean. The person complaining about mold in them simply didnât clean and dry them correctly. There is nothing about these straws to make them more prone to getting moldy than any other type of straw. My only complaint is I wish they were a little less pricey. The price still isnât that bad though since they seem to last indefinitely.

Milkshake straw!
These are wider than your normal straws, which make them good for use in milkshakes. They’re 9″ long so measure your tumbler as the oz size really doesn’t guarantee it will fit unless you measure the tumbler’s height. They can bend when you bite them and they will return to shape with no marks. Overall, worth the money since you can use these for a long time; however, I use them periodically so I’m not sure how they’d hold up to daily use.The little piece you get to clean them works really quite well.

Great for kids who like to chew on everything
These are really comfortable straws to use. I like that they come in a variety of colors so each child can identify their own straw. I have a couple of children who chew on every straw and these have help up amazingly. They don’t even have marks on them!They seem to be made out of really good quality material – they didn’t smell when we got them and they’re really thick. They’re super easy to drink a smoothie out of. They’re soft and wash easily (especially with the squeegee they come with). I think they’re good value for money. You can definitely take them with you to have on hand whenever needed (I just wish they came with some sort of bag for this purpose).

Great plastic alternative
Had these for a couple of months now and theyâre great. Easy to clean with the supplied brush but found that the green piece used to clean the straw dry had cut itself at the bottom of one of the straws so it leaves behind water inside the straw still. Fit the 16 ounce pint from Stanley great and even match some of the colors. Worth the money

Perfect Size!
Love these straws! They are the perfect width. No more broken blood vessels trying to get my smoothies up narrow straws! And I am super happy they are made of silicone!

Easy to use and wash
Use these daily. Good length, silicone prevents straw from slipping from cup. Wash well

Nice straws
Although they are dishwasher safe (which I like), they are not sturdy enough to stir my smoothie. Other than that they are ok.

Not worth the price due to its strong rubber smell. My kid noticed it and refused using them. Not recommend.

As an invalid, I am obliged to drink using a straw. Now I can avoid adding trash to our damaged environment while drinking comfortably from these soft- textured, hygienic (cleaning brush supplied) silocone straws. Wider than the plasic ones, I find I can gulp fast on thirsty days unlike with the plastic ones! Costly, but I don’t regret my choice.

Funcionan genial y al peque le encantan. Lo mejor es que ya no gastamos pajitas de plástico no reutilizables que son un problema gordo para la sostenibilidad del planeta. Son muy cómodas de limpiar y si algo se pega tienen un accesorio que permite limpiarlas bien por dentro.
