The 200-300ml (7-10 ounce) plastic drinking cups were sold for babies aged 4 to 12 months.


The white valve on the cup may develop mould if improperly or infrequently cleaned, posing a health risk to children.

In Canada, there were more than 484 reports of mould found inside the valve, and 3,066 complaints in the U.S., with many children experiencing gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea and vomiting.

Customers are advised to stop using the cups immediately and contact Mayborn USA Inc. to receive a free replacement cup.

For further information, customers should contact Mayborn USA Inc. by telephone toll-free at 1-866-214-1537 from 8:00 a.m. ET on Mondays, 24 hours a day, until 3:00 p.m. ET on Saturdays, or via the Tommee Tippee website.

From December 2014 through May 2016, approximately 227,000 cups were sold in Canada through various retailers, and approximately 3.1 million in the United States.
