Windsleeping- Amazon Cups.

Windsleeping has three sizes to choose from as well as Clear or Pink cups! It comes in a double pack of whatever size you order and comes with a plastic shell-like container.
Sizing Information-
S - diameter 42mm; length 38mm; stem 22mm
M - diameter 48mm; length 45mm; stem 22mm
L - diameter 49mm; length 53mm; stem 22mm

The firmness of the cups falls at the lower end of 1, being one of the softest cups on the market. Almost to the point of being too soft as the rim, making it difficult to open but after managing to open the cup the seal is extremely strong. The Pink is very bright with a "glass" like sheen to them. The shape makes it very comfortable to the point of not being able to feel them after the cup is in place. Each cup came in their own plastic bag with a slight sweet scent to them but the smell dissipated after the first boil, leaving me to believe that the smell had been left over from production or from the bag they had come in. It also came with a hard plastic container to store them in, with "breathing" holes in the back to keep them from damage. I believe it is a medical-grade silicone, like the information says, as it does not turn white when pulling on the stem; compared to the $3 cheapies. It does say that they are FDA approved and though there had not been any documentation sent to me proving this thus far, but that would be more my fault as I had not asked for it when I had ordered. But I believe that the Windsleeping cups might be made by the same company as the "Tulip" Cup brand and they do have certification. I will update after asking (and then receiving) for documentation so please check back later! The cups are fairly decent quality and feel much like the Super Jennie in all but the rim. The Windsleeping rim is a tad thinner so it does not spring out as easily but they are great low cervix/canal style cups and should be considered if you're on a budget! Overall, they could use minor adjusting with a slightly thicker rim and grip rings to help with opening the cup but the quality seems to be there as the cups had a very clean finish. And they should be considered a decent cup for low cervix/canal cup users that prefer softer end cups.
