I'm not exactly sure where this belongs (G & E vs here) but here goes nothing.... I'm always on the run so I did a search for a good shaker and I came across this: http://blenderbottle.com/ I ordered it on HSN for like $24 including shipping (for 4 bottles). This thing is pretty good. I use to mix up my endurox and muscle milk and it does a great job. Leaves no chunks of powder even on the bottom edges. I havent tried putting a whole banana in there though but It probabaly won't work too well.
not bad. I got a cheap ass blender cup from GNC. Works fairly well, although its a little on the small side.
I've had a few different shakers, including ones from GNC, dymatize, and EAS, and they all fucking leaked. My friend worked at Bally total fitness, and i got one of theirs and it is easily the best shaker i've ever had, and it was like 3.50.
This thing definitely isn't air tight. It does leak a teeny amount depending on how violently you shake it. But because of the little metal ball, you don't have to shake that hard. It does do a good job of mixing the powder into the liquid so you don't get clumps of powder stuck on the bottom.
I used to sell those all day at my previous job. $7.95 They're great for straight protein or greens, but MRP's are a little difficult due to the amount of product in an MRP. Construction is far beyond any shaker on the market. Pancakes, eggs...etc. I though everyone knew about these?
Ive seen him use it! The blender bottle is not to be messed with in the hands of Physical Therapy. I found you lurking in the subforums John, whats up man.
I thought about that cuz it seems pretty simple. But I would want to use high quality steel cuz I don't want that shit rusting. I don't know...I'm just a hypochondriac about that shit. I'll just splurge on the 6 bucks. Its too much trouble.
DPSNutrition's bottle has a little filter thing that gets sandwiched between the lid and the rest of the bottle to help mix... but those bottles always leak. Personally, I just buy the $.95 bottles at Target and shake. Allthewhey & Optimum Nutrition don't require any thing more than shaking to blend it. Muscle Milk (mixed with Milk) is a little harder to blend but if you shake it quickly after putting the milk in it'll blend without special bottles.
