Eco-Smart Premium Reusable Glass Straws, Set of 6, with Cleaning Brush by ICOSA

In our household we are not new to glass straws but I wanted to add another set because of glass straws because ours are quite popular whenever we host. When we started using glass straws was to prevent out son from chewing the plastic straws as he would chew even on reusable plastic straws. I was concerned the chewing on straws could damage his toddler teeth. As soon as we began to use the glass straws he stopped trying to bite on them, and now simply does not do it no matter what type of straw he is using.

To my surprise, these handcrafted straws are of a superior quality of the other sets we have. The glass is thicker which makes the straws look so much better, and also elegant. The set has six, 9” x 9.5 mm, glass straws and a convenient nylon cleaning brush. The glass used is comparable to the one used on Pyrex glassware, non toxic borosilicate glass. I prefer to use these straws with cold drinks but I have seen our guests drink all sorts of drinks without any complaints. Its cleaning is very easy, I run the straws under warm soapy water and use the brush provided to clean its inside. Since it is transparent glass, it is super easy to clean and visually inspect that in fact it is clean. Overall, I’m impressed by the thickness and quality of this set. There is nothing I would change about these glass straws. The straws work as expected, look modern, and are easy to clean.
