What do you do to keep cups from sticking?

You have to make sure that the cups stay round on the bottom. There is an add-on called a cup keeper that will keep the cups the same consistent shape even when thrown in a drawer or a backpack.

I'm not sure how to answer that question because our cups never stuck. Sorry, I hope you find the answers you are looking for.

So far that hasn't been an issue for the kids. However, I would probably try a little bit of corn starch or talc powder if they were to stick.

You need to put boric acid or diatomaceous earth in the cups. Both are available in Amazon. They have worked fine for me.

Loosen the string through the loops. The string can be removed from the cap and the cup itself that way.

This is an issue. We use a fork and place it through the slots in the cup handle. This can be accomplished without the egg sliding out unto the floor.

Try cooking oil or mineral oil. That usually makes that type of sticky material give up it's hold.

make sure the cup that holds the coffee is in place.I threw mine out the first time I used it by mistake and had the same problem.

yes, i too have had a problem w/ the drawer sticking. it seems that if the k-cups are not exactly in the correct place, they get stuck. i do not have my coffee maker on top of it and it still happens.

Make sure you plug the spout BEFORE you put any liquid into the cup. That way, no fat gets into the spout, that makes a world of difference between other separators

I had the same problem when I got mine. turns out i had to clean the cups and the window a bit better. then they stuck with no problem and haven't come off since!

I've had one for a few years now. I think I may have tried velcro, but in the end I decided that it generally stays put on its own. If you're trying to put a large drink in the cupholder, it won't stay in the holder anyway.

A bottle brush. The sprayer on your sink. Not letting cups sit until milk gets gummy. Several companies make a small set of four different brushes specifically for cleaning sippy cups. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a single brand or style of cup that does not have small crevices in the lid and some are much worse than these.If you've let the cups sit until a bottle or cup brush and hot water will not help, try soaking them for a few hours or overnight in hot water and dish detergent and trying again.

Just put a small amount of regular coffee filter in the cup. Make it so that it is a single layer and so that it doesn't interfere with the lid. That is what I do too and it works great! Doesn't seem to effect the coffee at all except to have less sediment in my cup!

I used the suction cups for quite a few years. I suppose replacing them often might help it stick best. You can buy replacements via String by Mail, I couldn't find them on Amazon.

Same issue for me too, I'm using the cup holder for now.Anybody has any solutions.

Have only had this problem with drinking glasses getting stuck, one inside the other. Maybe instead of hot water just rap gently with a wooden spoon on all sides of the neck while gently pulling the spout. Cover with a cloth just in case of breakage. Good luck. Hope someone comes up with a better idea.

I use this for large drinks all the time. There is an adjustable sliding tab on each holder that you adjust to the size of your cup then push it back in to lock it in place.

Try this: the bottom of the container has a small opening which the brewed coffee comes out of, take a toothbrush to it. I had the same problem, had a grain of coffee stuck in there! Good luck!
