Best shaker bottle out there right now! About a decade ago, shaker bottles with a metal spring ball or plastic ball were the rage, but they were a pain to clean. These bottles are so easy to clean...rinse out with water, drop in a little dish soap with hot water, and then shake. I make sure to clean the drinking spout, too. Fantastic. These mix protein powders remarkably well, too. Such a simple and effective design and made in USA. I've been using one for over a year now and it holds up very well. It may seem rather expensive for around $20, but it's well worth it for how much I use it. Highly recommended!

Update: I want to start off this review by telling Dody at Helimix how much I appreciate their promptness and the level of service that they provided. I contacted Helimix Support via their website and got quite possibly one of the fastest responses I have ever received from a company about anything. After sending my email in through their website at 7:07am they had responded to me (a real person not automated) by 7:23am with what information they needed to begin to process a replacement for me. I was blown away with how quickly they responded to me since it seems most companies have a standard 2 to 3 business day time frame on non-automated support. I sent in the requested information and they replied same day that they would get it shipped out that week. I can't overstate how amazed I was to contact support, get a reply and resolution all in the same day. That kind of customer service is hard to come by over email anymore. As promised they had my replacement shipped out 2 days from initial contact and I had it in my mailbox exactly 1 week after initial contact. Now that I got the amazing experience I had with their support out of the way, for the bottle itself. There was definitely an issue with my previous one because this one has been nice and watertight since receiving it. I've been using it for the past two weeks since getting it and have not had the same issue. Bottle is great at getting everything nice and mixed. I love being able to get the same if not better performance as other bottle brands without extra parts to achieve the results. They've got me hooked and I will definitely be recommending their product to others. (Original Review retained for completeness) I dunno if mine just doesn't sit right but it's not leak-proof. It's not a horrible leak but the whenever I'm shaking up anything inside it I will get splashed with little bits of liquid. There isn't any type of rubber gasket between the lid and cup so I'm not sure if this is why it leaks ever so slightly. None the less it's no fun getting sprayed by my drink when trying to mix it and it really sucks because otherwise the bottle is perfect. No clumping, mix is nice and uniform with very little to no product settled on the bottom.

You ever love the feeling of getting something that does it's job extremely well? Then this bottle will give you that feeling. I had wanted to try one out for awhile and when my old bottle finally cracked, it was finally time to buy. It's such a simple idea and yet it works to perfection. The protein powder and milk I used, which are not the highest quality, blended incredibly well. This puts my older blender ball style mixing bottles to shame. I will be purchasing another one. The product seems to be made of high quality plastic, so hopefully it will hold up for many years. My only knock on this product is that I did pinch my finger underneath the plastic grip ring when opening the bottle with my other hand.

I was skeptical about the gimmick and was not sure , but it is made in the USA so I am going to give it a try , it actually blends my protein powder with a good shaking , no chunks and after it cleans easy , did I mention it is made in the USA , it is a great product I will be buying more this is the goto shaker bottle

this thing performs as advertised. the whole peanut butter thing takes some work, but it definitely blends very well without having to worry about any additional parts. really does a better job blending than any other shaker i've had. i used it for about a year and really loved it, but unfortunately found out that the whole "top rack only" thing in the dishwasher is legit- i put it through my new dishwasher on the bottom rack and it came out melted, so the lid no longer seals. definitely recommend and will consider getting one again.

I’ve been through many shaker bottles with the “mixing balls”. All were awful. This bottle mixes my protein drinks with ease. No clumps. No dry powder. All mixed with a few good shakes. There has never been a leak (as long as I remember to close the drinking spout). I haven’t dropped it, so don’t know how sturdy against concrete and such, but most plastic bottles might break on concrete. Colors are fun and help with identifying my bottle from hubby’s. Easy to carry and can clip a carabiner to the lid. I highly recommend.

This is an honest review from someone that is trying a shaker for the first time. I’ve just been using an actual blender all this time. I read about how some shakers can leave clumps. That’s why I chose this one even though it’s a little more than a cheaper one. I’m using a protein powder that’s known for clumsiness. This shaker did a phenomenal job smoothing out the powder. I was super impressed. Others in the reviews for my current protein powder used other shaker designs and it seems to clump for them. Didn’t happen with this cup! It’s a good solid buy. It is easy to clean and makes life very convenient when making a protein shake. I’m so happy.

Why wouldn't you want all the different sizes !

So far so good, feels sturdy, shakes just fine, since its only been a few days cant say if it will hold up but time will tell. I really want to see if it retains smells and if it gets all messed up in the dishwasher, and if it doesn’t this will be a top tier shaker in my book.

I gave these in different sizes and colours to someone who goes to the gym . They are constantly in use and we're very appreciated.

UPDATE *Seller contacted me (thanks MONI) and issued a refund AND offered a replacement. Very kind of them. I'm changing my reveiw to 5 stars. I'm glad to be getting a replacement, these cups work (mix) great. One must just have a small defect.* I bought two of these bottles. A green lid and a purple lid. The purple lid is leaking from around the rim somewhere. I LOVE the other bottle but this one might have to be returned. If they weren't so expensive I wouldn't care.

Easy to use - easy to clean
