Protein shakes have been the backbone of the modern fitness world and the thing that goes hand in hand with them is the shaker in which you prepare them. But what are the features that you need to be looking for in the best protein shaker bottles on the market and what are the major differences between some of the tops models for 2020? Well, in this guide, we will discuss all the latest shaker bottles, put them side to side, and dive deeper into the individual features that define what a good shaker is.

First, let’s start with a brief overview of the top products I’ve selected and see how they stack up against each other in the following comparison chart…

BlenderBottle ProStak Bottle

Our Rating: (5/5)

The BlenderBottle ProStak is one of the most famous shaker bottles out there for a few very good reasons – it is well-made, budget-friendly, and quite practical. Apart from the price, people get this shaker due to its convenient size, well-working whisk, and the twist n’lock storage compartment that is perfect for powders and pills.

The bottle is made out of BPA- and Phthalate-free plastics which are quite resistant to temperature changes and sunlight. That makes the bottle good both for indoor fitness and outdoor activities. To add on top of that, it is also dishwasher safe which takes the pain away from having to hand-wash your shaker after each workout. The cap is quite durable and well-thought-out with a few unique features. First of all, it is leak-proof, and secondly, it comes with a loop for a string or for you to keep your keys in. The opening of the cap is also quite wide, making drinking from the bottle quite easy.

At the bottom of the bottle, you have a 150cc jar that comes with a removable space-saving pill organizer on the inside. Both of these are compatible with the twist and lock system of the Blender Bottle and you can stack as many of these storage compartments as you want. Have in mind that you only get one container with the rest being sold separately. Inside the bottle, you also have a wire whisk which helps with the mixing process. The Blender Bottle comes in 14 different color options and the company also has other models that have their own set of pros and cons including an Insulated metal version of the ProStak.

ShakeSphere Tumbler Protein Shaker Bottle

Our Rating: (4.5/5)

While a bit more expensive, the ShakeSphere Tumbler is extremely practical, very well-built, and has a few unique features that set it apart from most of the premium competition.

The most important feature of this particular shaker bottle is its inner shape. The pill-shaped interior leaves no corners or edges that can trap your powder and let it stick there without mixing with the liquid. This has its own set of advantages and maybe one or two disadvantages. The main pros of this design are that you don’t need a whisk, grid, or any other mixing mechanism for the shaker bottle to work well with your protein shake. Additionally, it is much easier to clean. On that note, you can also put this bottle in the dishwasher as it is safe to use there. Still, other shapes allow for larger internal volume which isn’t a huge issue here but the shaker could’ve been smaller with a similar capacity. At the top, you have an oversized leak-proof thread for the lid that is very easy to grip even when the bottle or your hands are wet. There is also an adjustable finger loop and a silicone slide cap that does a great job of sealing the drinking hole.

The ShakeSphere comes in 4 different color options which all have 24.6 fl oz capacity. This is more than most traditional shaker bottles out there, allowing you to prepare larger shakes. As a whole, at this price point, there are quite a lot of premium competitors each with their own unique functionality but the Tumbler by ShakeSphere definitely takes the prize for being unique and practical.

Grenade Shaker Bottle

Our Rating: (4.5/5)

The Grenade Shaker Bottle is an average-sized option that has a large storage compartment and a unique way to store your pills. The main advantage of this bottle is that it is tougher than most other shaker bottles out there for this price. The plastics are thicker than normal and are still DEHP and BPA-free. They are a bit harder than normal, though, which can make the bottle prone to breaking if dropped on a hard surface. The shaker is also safe to use in a microwave, freezer, or dishwasher, further proving its name and reputation. The cap is leak-proof and seals the opening well.

At the bottom of the grenade shaker bottle, you have a removable storage compartment that can fit more than two protein servings. Another unique place where you can store your BCAA or another type of pills is the bottle’s cap which has a hidden compartment that can hold up to 4 pills. The main bottle has a 20oz capacity which is more than enough for your post-workout shake. In terms of mixing your drink, the inner grid is good but the holes on it can sometimes be far too small for some powders, leaving them clogged and hard to clean if you hand-wash the bottle.

The Grande shaker bottle comes in 4 unique color options without having any additional size options. Price-wise, this is one of the best-priced shaker bottles out there and is on par with some of the budget shakers while maintaining a premium build quality. Honestly, for the money, this is one of your best bets.

Ice Shaker Stainless Steel Insulated Bottle

Our Rating: (4.5/5)

The Ice Shaker Stainless Steel insulated water bottle takes a different approach to your workout beverages. Unlike other plastic shaker bottles, this one is made out of stainless steel and can keep cold drinks for up to 30 hours and hot ones for quite a lot of time as well. The total volume of the bottle is also fairly higher than the market’s average at 26 fl oz.

Aside from the stainless steel body, the top is made out of BPA-free leak-proof plastic. It can be opened even when you’re using and shaking the bottle without you worrying to spill your drink. Around the cap, there is a retractable handle which is there for added convenience when you’re carrying the shaker bottle around. The stainless steel and plastics do not absorb odors like other cheaper shaker bottles tend to do and they are also safe to wash in a washing machine. Another unique feature is that the exterior of the bottle is sweat-proof and doesn’t leave any wet marks on your hands or the table you’ve put it on. The bottle also comes with an agitator on the inside which helps with mixing various powders. It is twisted to the cap to stay in place when you’re shaking the bottle. Another useful feature is that the bottom of the bottle fits most car cup holders.

The shaker bottle comes in two different colors with two additional band colors. All upsides aside, this shaker is significantly more expensive than other bottles on the market which is its main disadvantage. Still, if you like having a cold drink without the inconvenience of a sweaty and slippery bottle, this is one of the best products for this purpose on the market.

JoyShaker Protein Shaker Bottle

Our Rating: (4.5/5)

Jumping from the smaller shaker bottles to this one might seem way too drastic, especially since the JoyShaker Water Bottle has a capacity of 83 oz. While it isn’t specifically designed for protein shakes, t
