Advantages: good handles, doesn't leak, juice line and bright colours

Disadvantages: At 4 months old it is too hard for them to use

This cup advises it can be used from 4 months, which is the age i used it from with my daughter. In my opinion i think it would better suit an older child as she is kind of getting the hang of it now that she is seven months old. When i first gave it to her she was more interested in throwing it about - which is fine as it doesn't leak. When i encourged her to drink from it though she didn't understand how to drink from it as she tended to just bit the spout instead of sip from it.
The spout does fold down well for transport in a changing bag and the handles are well designed for little hands to grip. The other unique feature is that there is a measuring line on the cup, this indicates how much jucie to put in to ensure it is not too strong for your baby - a good idea in my opinion; especailly for Dad's as i find they always make juice for children and babies way too strong!
Overall i would say it is good but dont expect your child to get the hang of it from 4 months, it takes alot of persaverance but as far as cups go it is a good one.

Summary: Good product, better for older babies 7 months+
