Product Description
Athletes and other peak performers rely on nutrition shakes to supply an important part of their daily nutritional needs. Shaker cups are a convenient way to blend these drinks when an electric blender isn't available. Unfortunately, though, most shaker cups do a poor job of mixing nutrition shakes. The drink mix ends up stuck to the sides of the cup, and the portion that's not stuck is usually lumpy and poorly mixed. The Blender Bottle changes this with a simple but effective technology that produces a drink that's almost as smooth and creamy as one made with an electric blender. Not only does the Blender Bottle do a great job, but it's very low in cost and easy to clean.

Shake it up, baby! October 13, 2008

I love my Blender Bottle! The design proves, once again, that some of the best innovations are simple modifications of existing approaches -- and proves also that aesthetic touches can make a world of difference in the experience of a product.
For a long time, I'd been using a generic brand of shaker for my protein shakes and other beverages. It was ugly, felt a bit cheap, but did the job -- to an extent. My drinks didn't taste very smooth, but I tolerated that -- and I could get them to a pretty decent consistency if I shook the bottle long enough and hard enough.
I bought this one after seeing the rave reviews and hoped they were right. They were. There are several advantages to this type of shaker over the other one I've used:
1. It looks good -- yes it is made of plastic but it is a rugged plastic, that feels solid; the edges are smooth and there are no lines that indicate an inferior manufacturing process.
2. The cap goes on smoothly -- with my other bottle I had to keep trying to get the cap to fit the groove and go on tight. If I got it wrong then it would leak when I started shaking. With this cap I've never had problems.
3. The "lip" that covers the drinking hole stays open or shut as you like -- with my other bottle I had to hold it shut with my thumb while I was shaking, and then when I would drink it kept flipping back to hit my lip, so I had to hold it open. This one stays shut if it is shut and doesn't flip back when it is open.
4. The real innovation here is the "whisk" style steel ball that rolls around as you shake and really breaks up any solids you put in there. I have a powdered green tea that dissolves only with difficulty, but the whisk seems to break it up very easily.
5. It is easy to clean -- I keep mine at my office where I don't have a dishwasher, so I wash it by hand between uses -- and because the lines are clean and because it is fairly wide at the opening, I can reach in there with a sponge and really get it clean.
If you are in the market for a shaker bottle I can't imagine you'll find one better than this one.

I drink lots of protein shakes --- especially before and after a workout. I want a bottle that is sturdy, safe, practical and easy-to-use. This bottle is all of that and more.
I bought my bottle from Energy First because I buy protein there. But the price you can get it for on Amazon just can't be beat. The blender bottle is sturdy and quickly makes your drink or whatever you want to make. It's pleasant to drink from and doesn't leak anywhere at any time. I consider it the perfect bottle and it blends beautifully.
Highly recommended.

Perfect blender replacement for life on the go June 21, 2008

I mix up protein shakes from powder every day, including while traveling about 20 weeks a year. I used to have a Braun immersion blender in my carry-on bags, but was often stopped at airport security (they always passed me, but it was still annoying). Now, this it makes possible breeze through to the plane. It would work fine in a sports bag or drink in the car on a commute.
It is easy to use and clean. No extra parts or power needed.
