Blender Bottle

Are the blender bottles worth it for protein shakes? I'm having my surgery on November 15th and I'm wondering if this would be worth it to buy.

I bought one for $20. Haven't used it for the shakes but it's coming in handy for weeks 2-3 for full liquids (I'm blending soups).

Love mine! WalMart has the best price by far (around $8.00 as I recall). I found mine by the protein powder.

I have 4 of them and still use them! Totally worth it.

I bought two of them, one for home and then one for work. They work really well for getting the chunks out of protein powder shakes, especially the thicker, stickier powders like casein.

Amazon sells them for under $6

I got mine at Walmart, love it...has the little metal, springy ball, does a good job mixing.

Got mine at Smoothie King. It was cheap, and it's awesome!

Just ordered mine on amazon thanks everyone! Now onto the task of finding a protein shake I can tolerate that is not extremely expensive.

You bet they are! I have 2 of them. One trick I use for cleaning them is to fill it 1/2 way with Water and shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds( good upper body workout too, kind of like the shake weight). Then I open top, dump and refill with water letting it overflow for a few seconds. After dumping out the water, the blender cup is about 95% clean. At the end of the day, I end up putting them into the dishwasher to get them 100% clean.

I swear by mine, use them daily!!

Does anyone use a juicer? Wondering if I should get that too.

A juicer would be good if you literally want to dice, slice and juice up raw fruit and veggies. However, not necessary if you are mixing up Protein shakes, super/ green powder or some kind of powder that has been prepared commercially. A blender cup will suffice to mix it up and cheap.

A juicer literally just gets juice out of fruits or vegetable. I have a Ninja blender for chopping stuff up and it's great!

My mom gave me her Ninja. So you put your veggies in it? How does it taste? Any good recipes? I am on full liquids right now, so I am not sure if I am allowed to have that, but maybe when I move to soft food.
