Contigo70290 Contigo Shake & Go Fit Snap Lid Shaker Bottle, 28 oz, Black

Great value and product

The round bottom of the bottle paired with the solid shaker ball censures that no powder clumps at the bottom. Much better than other brands that use a metal spring ball. The plastic is also flexible, but of high quality. I have dropped this bottle while full many times, and the lid did not break.Highly recommend

With a large family and several teenagers, we've purchased a number of different types of shaker bottles for mixing things like protein powder or fiber drink mixes, and these have been the best we've come across. So what makes these better than others? There are two main features that set these apart in my opinion.First off, most of the other bottles we've purchased have flat bottoms where powders tend to get stuck and won't mix in. The rounded bottom makes it much easier to get a completely incorporated mix. It also makes cleaning easier so that we're not getting deposits left in the corners to bake in place in the dishwasher, and you can get at everything with a rubber or silicone spatula if needed.Second; the shaker ball. Unlike some of the other options, this weighted ball actually does the mixing work when you shake the bottle. Knock-off brands sometimes have a similar-looking plastic shaker ball that is not weighted and doesn't really do anything if you have a thicker liquid. They may mix in something like coffee creamer okay, but if you want to add something like protein powder or yogurt to the mix and you're better off leaving those out and mixing with something else.Wire whisk balls do a better job than the cheap lookalike plastic balls, but still don't have the weight needed to mix well without doing a pre-workout workout just to shake it up. The weighted ball is a huge benefit.The other features are great too, but you find them on even the cheap bottles, so they don't make a highlight list. The measurements seem to be accurate and are marked clearly enough. The lid is reasonably comfortable to carry with its wider handle, and it seals well.

love it

Good shakers have to watch and make sure they latch completely

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.

As the title says… leaks badly out of the spout when shaken. Cap doesn’t seal fully. Also cap comes open very easily so there is no way you could transport in a backpack or anything else.Update: This was user error. The lid clicks into place but it isn't fully closed. You have to press down on it much harder to get it fully seated. Once it is fully closed it doesn't leak.

Contigo Shake & Go Fit Snap Lid Shaker Bottle, 28 oz, BlackThe description threw me off originally. I was understanding this as the entire lid snapped into place. Upon receiving the item I discovered that the entire lid screwed on and the drinking/pouring spout snapped into place. This made me happy as I'm sure you can imagine my questioning of a snap on top with canister for shaking things up with. That said, the lid screws on very securely, and the drinking/pour spout snaps into place securely as well.The inside of the container has no corners, rather just rounded edges. This definitely does help mix powders easier as they don't get stuck or collect in any corners. The little ball also helps break down thicker powders. Keeping it in the container also doesn't hinder the user from drinking.My only gripe is with the SKU sticker at the bottom of the unit. Not sure what kind of adhesive is being used, buy my gosh is it strong!That aside, this shaker is pretty good.
