I’ve owned over a dozen shakers over the years and this one worked the best. #1 feature – the size. Holding almost a quart, you can easily prepare multiple martini’s at the same time. #2 it doesn’t leak. You can bruise your cheapest gut rot ’till enough ice forms on the sides to make tiny snowballs to throw at your guests without the fear of loosing a drop. #3 the pour – smooth, clean, no spillage. Two words of advise: a) The top cover is for decoration and shouldn’t be used during drink preparation. b) If someone asks “where do the batteries go” just make a super smooth dirty joke or better yet a super smooth dirty martini and have a chuckle.

This is the second one that I have bought. They look nice, don’t spill when you shake and pour, and can hold about 3 cocktails. We had a Christmas party with about 75 people and I offered to bartend…mixed a lot of drinks and had no issues.

It’s a great cocktail shaker, nice size and as I read on the other reviews, it doesn’t spill when pouring a drink.

I’m happy with my purchase.

Unfortunately, there is no option for 0 star. I had the same problem as Lana from NC. I ordered the product, and when I opened the box, I found that I received only the bottom piece. When I asked if the remaining pieces could be shipped, I was told that partial products are not shipped and that I would have to get an entirely new order. Fine, other than I have to go through the hassle of waiting in line at the post office to return the wrong one. Except, if they don’t ship partial products, then why did I receive a partial product to begin with? I received the second, mind you the replacement order, and the same exact thing happened – I received only the bottom piece. So now I have to shlep both packages to the post office and waste my time for their error. I suggest doing a search of metrokane cocktail shaker and you will find a couple other sites selling the same product. One site even has 2 different sizes if anyone is looking for a smaller shaker.

I bought this cocktail shaker as a gift. The package came on time. But when I opened the package I noticed that the container that had the shaker inside was opened. The next moment I realized that the cover, top and the strainer of the shaker were missing. So I only got the bottom of the shaker in my package. It is very frustrating. I rated it as 1 star, so that I can post the review. Obviously, I did not have a chance to use it!
