Must be a better cup holder out there.
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...

Cup Holder?
This fit nicely on my Bob Revolution stroller. But, the "cup holder" I was sent, which looks identical to the one in the photo, has packaging labeling it a "Universal Drink Bottle Holder" and has a warning label to not use with hot liquids! Maybe they shouldn't advertise it with a coffee cup in it. It seems like it will work OK but it is not as sturdy as I had expected. It seems a little tricky to get the coffee cup in and out for shorter coffee cups than the one shown in the photo.

Does its job but a couple of caveats...
The Valco Universal Cup Holder fulfills its purpose in life; it holds many different sizes of cups and stays afixed to a stroller.

However, it was relatively difficult to attach to the stroller, both because of the need for force and because the directions were godawful. It also sometimes gets in the way of folding our Maclaren Quest, but this is manageable.

Overall, it is a decent product, but clearer instructions and easier installation would push it up to 5 stars.

Does an ok job
It is somewhat universal in that it fits on both strollers (McClaren and Bugaboo). But I wish the inside was more snug (the cup holds, but there's always some of the beverage leaking on the stroller...or the kid on the board). For the bugaboo, the bugaboo cupholder does a better job (in terms of holding the drink), however, I have not found one that works perfectly- the bugaboo cupholder keeps falling off the stroller everytime I recline the seat!!!

Baby Stroller cup holder
I purchased my cup holder, figured out how to attach it and have found it useful. It does move a bit...maybe I haven't gotten it snug enough. I like that it moves a bit for folding up the stroller and putting it away, because I can move the cup holder to the position best suited for storage. Though when I'm walking it tends to slip occasionally, but I like having it as an option for keeping my drinks in safe convenient place near me and away from baby. For those moms who are trying to balance the stroller and baby wanting a break from it and a drink, this cup holder is great.

Disappointed
This product is neither "universal" nor a "cup holder". It didn't fit well either of my strollers, so I was afraid to use it. Disappointed to say the least. Gonna have to train the little one to carry my hot coffee! LOL.

okay holder
This holder was difficut to get on the Valco Runabout stoller tight enough. So it pivots when push with a bit of firmness. Otherwise a good holder to the stroller.

Fits a Bugaboo Frog.
Fits a Bugaboo Frog, and doesn't look out of place.

I got this before Bugaboo introduced a cup holder within their accessories range. It has been great as many past Bugaboo owners can probably attest to by not having a cup holder.

The product is easy to install, and by placing it at the end of the handle it is pretty stable. Nothing particularly special about the plastic moulding, though some of edging is a bit sharp and could do with a bit of rounding off.

Although it does have a gap to allow for cups with handles it doesn't really go far enough down which means the cup kind of hangs a bit.

Bottom line is that it does what it says, hold cups.

Cup Holder not only for strollers
This cup holder works great. I attached it to a pull cart that I needed at work to put books, etc. in after I had foot surgery. It also works on walkers.

Fits Bugaboo perfectly!!
What else can I say? Fits my Bugaboo perfectly and never fails me.
