Zyliss Shake 'N Go Tumbler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a fairly handy item to have around if you need to mix up protein drinks and the like. The problems I have with it are that if you don't pre-stir the mixture powder gets into the lid parts and is very difficult to clean out. (The lid is attached to the top.) It is difficult to clean the lid because it partly doubles back on itself when you open it and you can't clean all of it when it is closed. Trying to get anything in there to clean it is difficult at best. Also, because the drink gets into the the lid when you shake it, when you go to drink out of the opening in the top it drips on you! It is better to take the top off and drink from the side. I've found that if I'm going to have to stir it anyway and can't drink it with the lid on - why bother!
But, that said, the measurement markings on the side are very useful if you need a certain amount of liquid and don't want to dirty a measuring cup as well and because it does have a lid you can take this with you. It seals pretty well and I've not had it leak.
What makes this cup a "mixer" is that there is a round insert with spokes like a wheel that sets in the top of the bottom part and is mostly held in place when you screw the top on. I think this does help it mix some.
I've found this cup at Whole Foods, so if you have one near you, you may want to ask about getting it there. It isn't really worth paying the shipping costs on this item.

Tupperware 2-Cup Quick Shake Gravy Container Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a veteran of dietary supplement powders (multivitamins, fiber, and mysterious green powders), this is the best shaker I've used to date! The tight-fitting lid stays firmly in place, even after months of use, unlike the cheap dribble shaker that came with the vitamin powder, and the domed top allows plenty of air space for optimal blending. My supplements dissolve faster and without the clumping I sometimes experienced with my old flat-topped 16 ounce shaker. I like the fact the container's see-thru and calibrated: ounces, cups, and ml. The plastic is lightly textured on the outside for a non-slip grip, and very smooth on the inside for optimal shaking and easy cleaning. The plastic is stable, so lacks that yucky plastic smell. In addition to supplement powders, this shaker, complete with pour top (make sure it's locked in place before shaking) would be great for smaller portions of salad dressings, where you don't want to drag out the blender.
In addition to a shaker, this container doubles as a covered drink container for the car, since the lid stays on tight, and the bottom is narrow enough to fit in all but the flimsiest cup holders. A friend takes his Tupperware shaker to the juicebar for carryout juices! The pour-top doubles as an opening for a straw, for kids or people who need to drink from a straw (like when I had a neck injury). A calibrated drink container can also be helpful for people trying to make sure they drink 8 glasses of water a day.
While the listed price seems like a lot to pay for a shaker, if it's like my other Tupperware containers, it'll be around for decades!
