This is a great idea product, nice materials, but...
I got one and after just a few uses the flip top stuck open and would not close again.
I contacted the company, told them of my issue and they were very responsive; quick, friendly, etc.
They sent me another shaker free of charge.
Unfortunately, as I was showing someone how cool this product was, one finger flip open...it stuck again. It is like a hyper-extended joint that locks up. And won't close again.
The shaker strains very slowly as well. The hole on the underside of the strainer lid is pretty small. Not a huge complaint, but bothersome.
Anyway, I really want to like this product but the kinks make it unusable.

I absolutely love the concept of this product, so I purchased one. I was just testing it out with water, and it leaked all over the place. I was really disappointed, but not ready to give up on it. I secured the lid again, and pushed a little harder on the locking side of the lid. This did the trick! It can seem that the top is fully locked in when it may not be. There is a little bit of resistance, but this is what locks the lid closed. I shook again, and it did not leak at all! Looking forward to using this to do more than just shake water!

Metrokane Flip-Top Cocktail Shaker with Built-In Strainer
I really wanted this to work. It was highly rated by America's Test Kitchen. It had features I was looking for, the sealing gasket, double wall, dishwasher safe, stainless, no little shaker cap to pop off and skitter across the floor.
I read the negative reviews and was concerned about reports of the lid locking in open or closed position, so I found one in a store and opened it and flipped the lid a few times to make sure it worked. With a product with so many bad reviews, I chose to purchase the item there for ease of returning it.
While I was washing it before its first use, the lid locked open and I could not get it closed. See video.
I'm taking it back today. Cocktail time is not the time for fighting with equipment.

Not dishwasher safe
Works fine, if you remember to lock the lid closed (as others have said); looks cool, too. BUT: not dishwasher safe! Lid was all wonky after I unthinkingly ran it through a cycle. Read more

Not Sanitary
This is a great product idea gone wrong. After using it three times, the lid locked in the up position. The company was unresponsive to several emails. Read more

How to Get the Top Unstuck
I love this shaker, that is, after the first time I used it and it splattered everywhere and I learned to click the top shut. It's been true for years. Read more

Yep, It Leaks
I bought this at Bed, Bath, and Beyond (an impulse purchase) and sure enough, it leaked. Wish I had checked out the reviews here first!
So duh, don't buy it.

If it only didn't leak. . .
Since reviews seemed to be 50/50 here, I thought I'd give this cocktail shaker a try. Sadly, I received one that leaked. Read more
