View Full Version : After-market cup-holders?
Any good suggestions? My bud just got the Liquid Holster ($20), which looks pretty solid compared to some of the junk I've seen out there. Anyone seen anything else I might want to check out?
Thanks, gear-obsessed dad Erik
Also, anyone know if the handles on the Buzz (possible purchase) will accept one of these?

I have the Liquid Holster one, but I just got the Valco, which I prefer. It is much more user-friendly, and fits better.You can use the Valco on reversible handle strollers, because it swivels. I have seen it on a Bug and it fits well. It also has teeth grips to hold different sized bottles and cans.
There is a woman named Jodi who sells them on Strollerswap. I think Rodney has them, too:

I don't know if he has them in stock at the moment. I know Jodi is getting a shipment in the next week. I think she charges $12.
Hey thanks StrollerQueen--the both look like decent options. The LH one looks a bit more streamlined, but the VB certainly looks nice also. Thanks for the pic.
Now I just gotta get a stroller. Buzz/MBUS, too soon to tell...

Does the Valco one fit on umbrella strollers? Like a P3 & Swift?? Also, how does one get in touch with Jodi?

LOL, actually I thought that the Valco looks way more streamlined. I think the Liquid Holster one is bulky and ugly!
You can contact Jodi on Strollerswap, link in my siggy!

Yea--I suppose I need to SEE the Valco one first. Maybe that's the way to go, being that I haven't used ANY of them. I'm pretty hard on my stuff, so I'm afraid of breaking it. Sounds like the Valco unit is smaller? I like the sounds of that. Don't they both swivel?

When I asked here I was pointed towards the click 'n go stuff by prince lionheart. I ended up not bothering at all to get one, I usually take bottled water with me anyway and that I can just keep in the basket. TRU/BRU sells them along with online stores.

I guess. I just couldn't get the Liquid Holster one to fit right.
Fwiw, I or various children have broken many a cupholder. Kind of goes with the territory.
The Valco is smaller and less obtrusive.

Thanks for the recommendation Janet :)
We use the Valco one on all of our strollers, including the P3.
Here's a picture of them:
