Valco Universal Cup Holder - Recommended

Many have been asking about the 'perfect' cup and bottle holder for their stroller.  All strollers are designed a little differently, but the cup holder that has worked on EVERY stroller system we have worked with is the Valco Universal Cup Holder.

The Valco Universal Cup Holder

When used properly, the Valco Cup Holder keeps your drink snugly attached to the stroller without the hassle of pesky Velcro strapping systems or loose hanging fabric cup holders.

Make sure that you read the instructions: the cup holder is secure when installed properly, but if it is not done per the instructions the cup holder will be loose fitting and could cause the drink to spill.

If you have any questions about this or any other accessory, please feel free to write us any time!  stollerinfo@gmail.com

New Report on BPA in Baby Bottles

Yesterday, the National Toxicology Program released a draft report outlining possible risks involved with using shatterproof polycarbonate baby bottles and plastic containers.

The results are serious and should be considered when making decisions about which baby bottle systems to use, or which plastic bottles are safe for your child.

Always remember, it is better to hand wash bottles and polycarbonate plastics by hand, as heating them releases the BPA that can leech into the fluids and solids placed into the plastic - then ingested by humans.  They have found that BPA is possibly linked to early puberty in girls, prostate cancer and breast cancer.  And to think - that is only what is known now.

There was a great article in the Chicago Tribune  posted yesterday by Julie Deardroff: check it out!

We at StrollerInfo.com have found an informative online website selling ONLY BPA-free products - from bottles to sippy cups and feeding items to toys - www.thesoftlanding.com.  They also have a fantastic blog with great information about BPA and related safety concerns.
