Valco Baby Universal Cup Holder, Black

 (37 customer reviews)

This is one very serious cup holder that will never fail if installed right but that is hard to do. It seems like you install it one way, but you actually have to do something else. I'm pretty handy but this one was tricky to me. Instructions are atrocious.

First, this cup holder will fit all thickness handles. I have a First Years Wave stroller which is very thick. It could've handled thicker and thinner just the same.

Second, it does swivel to level your drink if installed on a diagonal bar. You have to press a button to make it swivel.

Here is the trick--when you get it, the tab piece that goes around the bar comes bent in the middle and it feels like you put your bar in that part, tighten, and you are done. This is wrong.

***HOW TO INSTALL***
You should unbend the tab piece where you think the bar should go. Then, bend the piece again around your stroller to make a custom sized loop. This plastic is pretty thick that is probably why...Read more

We have a Maclaren Triumph. Got this cupholder for it. It doesn't really fit the handles very well, it frequently twists and turns. Within a few days of installing it, the tightening mechanism broke, so the cupholder is hanging on pretty loosely. Jeesh, I better not put any hot beverages in there! Also, the first time I used it, I put a 32 oz cup of iced tea in it, it seemed pretty secure initially. How wrong was I? The cup went tumbling on to the floor of the BabyGap, iced tea and ice cubes everywhere! Very embarassiing. This is just OK for the money. And as the title of my review says, there must be something better...

I have 2 Peg Perego Strollers and the OEM cup holders are AWFUL - their either too small or so cheaply made that they break, so I opted for an addon cup holder. (It seemed like an easy task at first until I kept making trips back and forth trying/returning other brands).

I eventually found this one. It's GREAT only b/c it's the only cup holder I've found that will attach to our stroller handles in a convenient location that doesn't hinder the stroller from collapsing. However it's a PAIN to put on - so once it's on, I will never take it off. Meeting the flap into the tiny hole and then trying to screw on the nut is time consuming. If only the flap was just 1/2 inch longer and same with the nut/screw it would be easy to install/take off.

Why 4 stars? It works. It fits. And it's a giant size that I can put a water bottle or my son's sippy, or a big gulp w/o fear of it teetering out or spilling. It's also super durable. When we've flown with the stroller - it didn't...Read more
