Is Strawesome Really Awesome? You Decide.

If you’ve been reading SmartMomPicks for a few months now, then you know that I am pretty environmentally conscious and try to be green when I can. That’s why when I saw a review of Strawesome, I ran right over to the site to check out the glass straw.

That’s right people, a glass straw. Now I’m sure that you are thinking “Who would buy a glass straw?! My kids would break that in a second!” I thought the same thing.  The straws are made from borosilicate glass; a glass known for its super durability. It’s more resistant to breaking than other glass, and is used in high-quality beverage glassware and kitchenware (like measuring cups, coffee pots) and is the same glass used by Pyrex. It is non-porous and hypo-allergenic and is microwave and dishwasher safe. It’s also BPA-Free and toxin free.

The straws come in a variety of sizes: 6″ straws, 8″ straws, 10″ straws, bent straws. They also have Smoothie straws which are a bit wider than a regular straw and makes drinking shakes and smoothies easier.

Strawesome straws come with a variety of colors and designs you can have put on your straws. If you see one you like, grab it fast! Every design they create is limited edition. Once it’s sold out, it’s gone. Kind of a cool gift idea, huh?

Still not sure about a glass straw? Strawesome offers a lifetime guarantee so if you break it, they send you a new one. They are that confident that their straws won’t break.

I’m thinking that yes, Strawesome straws seem pretty awesome, and I think I might pick one up for myself…what about you?

    I’m always afraid of how clean it might be. Like, how long can i keep water stains, even orange juice and coffee discoloration out of it?

    Pipe cleaners and a decent stain fighting detergent should keep it pretty clean. I think it’d be a wise investment; i know plastic straws can be a choking hazard but this puppy would be hard to misplace so easily.

    Strawesome is very awesome! I try to be very green in my house. We drink lots of smoothies and we like to use straws and I couldn’t handle the plastic anymore. So I searched the internet for a few weeks and decided upon Strawesome as our choice. We love them! We chose the Smoothie 5 pack. You get to pick your colors and they send you a free cleaner. So you don’t need to worry about how clean/dirty the straw will be. It’s the length of the straw and will get all the way down there and all sides. We are completely happy. The smoothie size is very wide. We weren’t expecting them to be that large/wide but now ice and fruit chunks aren’t getting stuck at the bottom of the straw anymore like they used to. So I highly recommend their product especially because of the Lifetime Warranty!
