Contigo Shake & Go Fit Shaker Bottle, 28 oz., Carolina Blue, Snap Lid

Dont get these as a gift. Spend three more dollars on an actual blender bottle unless you are buying a half dozen of these bad boys like me. These are great if you HATE doing dishes and want a new protein shake every day of the week, the mixer ball is actual preferable to a wire one, however, given a vigorous few shakes, these will most definitely pop open even with you holding down the tab. So be aware you might get shake in your eyes, nose, or mouth, or on your cat. To me, the pros outweight the cons, YMMV.

I live off of these shakers. For years, literally. After trying many types of shakers I only buy this brand because of the fact that they are durable, easy to clean and they do not leak if you take care of them. If you put very little liquid in them and shake very hard of course the container is going to break. If you put the components on the bottom shelf of course, melting may occur and the threading may leak. This is how I take care of these containers, and some of them have lasted me for five years no joke. Once I’m done using it, I’ll rinse it out. Once I’m ready to wash it, I will soak it for 15 maybe 20 minutes in hot water, soap and baking soda to get any lingering protein smell out. I’ll hand wash frist before I put them in the dishwasher with the containers and the lids on the top shelf only the bottom shaker balls in the silverware trays and that seems to be fine. With a little care of these are truly the best shakers.

This is a superb product, much better designed than my old

Three features of this bottle make it better for me than the Blender Bottle. The extra wide opening on the handle makes it easier to grab and carry. The curved bottom allow for quicker and better hand washing. And since I make shakes with whole grains, the mixer ball on the Blender Bottle kept getting clogged, so I stopped using it. But, the solid, heavy mixing ball on this one is perfect. I use a blender to actually mix the shake before pouring in the bottle, but the mixer ball is good to remix later. I bought four of these, make the shakes ahead and freeze them. I set one on the counter first thing in the morning while getting ready for work. Then toss it in my bag on the way out the door (so far, the fit is tight and no leaks). By the time I get to work and settled at my desk, the shake is perfect. These shakes have been a game changer for convenience and eating a better breakfast. Would totally recommend these bottles.

I bought the cup for my BCAAs, and protein shakes but I like to put my cup in my gym bag. The lid on this cup does not latch well therefore I am unable to put it in my bag or even shake it without holding it tight. Perhaps this is just an anomaly and others are better but it is my experience.

I drink over a gallon of water a day and its difficult to find good reusable bottles. This bottle is great for many reasons: - Its large to hold a lot more water than a normal water bottle - Its lightweight - Washable in dishwasher - Large opening to drink from - Quick to open and close Cons (not a flaw): - Its not the most secure to throw around. Hasnt popped open on me yet but a screw cap is probably safer - Can leak around the screw cap if its not tight enough before putting water in it

I purchased 3 of these, and while I did like them overall I did decide to purchase a different style when I needed another one. As long as I made sure the lid was closed (and on right!) than I havent had any issues with leakage. I did have a couple times where it started spewing because I thought the lid was on tight, but it wasnt. I just learned to put my hand on the spout cover as I shook. I love the size and they are easy to clean....If I forgot to rinse them out soon enough than I just put them in the dishwasher. The one major complaint I have is that the sunken spot on the lid (the round spot that pushes into the drinking spout) pushes down so hard that eventually all three of them got a large hole in that spot where it actually separated from the plastic surrounding it. This essential makes the lid garbage and since you dont get a replacement lid; the entire thing is garbage at that point! Each one lasted several months, but for the price I would like to try to find something that will last me a great deal longer.

Definitely my favorite bottle for its simplicity, durability and price. I paid 6 dollars for both of mine which I believe to be worth while. Ive brought them with me on flights and they do fine being crammed under seats or going through security so Im pleased with that since I travel a lot. They also do great on hikes with a carabiner clip attached to a bag and even being dropped on dirt or cement from a variety of heights (since Im a bit clumsy) Measurements on the side in ounces and mL helps track water consumption which I also like. Shaker ball works as it should! Overall super happy with the product! Only reason I bought this over the twist cap was the price and the fact that I can open this lid with one hand and dont think I could do the same with that one.

Look no more, this is the king of shakers. As a long time user of Smartshakes and other brands, I can tell right out the box this is superior quality and build. It mixes very well and easy to clean. Superb! And the price is nuts, very happy with this purchase. UPDATE: After a few days, see the image that says shake. I believe that is the best shake motion to avoid any serious harm to the bottom, I understand a lot of force its needed to break it but it is true that the ball is heavy but perhaps this suggestion seems to avoid any direct contact with the ball and the bottom of the shaker.
