I recently bought this mug to use for blending my morning protein shakes. As recommended, I generally use 6 oz skim milk with one scoop of protein powder. This mug does a poor job of mixing out the lumps in the powder, no more effective than the old fashioned shaker method. I put in brand new batteries and have tried a couple different brands of powder and using water in place of milk and the results are always the same- lumps. I would not recommend this product for this use. Kids love using it for blending Crystal Light though.

Very good cup mixer! I got this at the local mall 'as seen on tv' and been groovin' ever since.
I use this to mix flavor packets, since it does a perfect job of it everytime (no residual or clumps left behind). My current favorite are the Arizona Diet Green Tea packets. Im getting my green tea on a regular basis now, with included antioxidants..;)
so minus one star?
-The rubber power button cover on my cup popped off (grey dot in the pic), on the first day..fun times. I can still use the power button.

-The 'journey's edge' logo comes off fairly easy. Normally not a big deal, but the painted lettering eteches right off and now I have more of faded lettering, but my concern is the constant flaking of the letters. Its on the outside of the cup and Im sure a hard scrubbing with a...Read more

I'm giving this mixer 4 stars because I use it every day to mix milk and a protein powder and it does it successfully. The mug itself seems solid and well made. The mixer itself is the flimsiest plastic and the motor has minimal torque. I can only half fill the mug with milk or it will not be able to produce the 'tornado' mixing effect. I would recommend this only for light mixing of powders with small amounts of fluid.
