I unpacked my Blend-N-Go and used it right away. A little milk and a little more ice cream, 45 seconds and I had my milkshake.

I was wondering how it would interface with my beehive Oster blender. The top of the container is the bottom when you are blending. Your gasket and blade screw on, you invert the container, place it on the blender and go. This means you cannot add ingredients while blending, as the top (the bottom when drinking) is not removable.

This evening, I'm going to use both the Blend-N-Go's I bought. I'll make 2 shakes and take one to my friend's home. They come with a straw which is bigger than usual. You can close the straw hole in the screw-on top for transporting.

I definitely recommend this for shakes and smoothies.

I love my Blend-N-Go Cup, but recently lost the straw. Fortunately, you can still drink from the cup with the lid screwed on if the drink is not too thick, but if you prefer having the straw, be careful keeping track of it! The only reason I docked one star from this rating is that I couldn't find a replacement the same size as the original anywhere. I contacted the company, expressing my frustration at the idea of buying a whole new Blend-N-Go just to get a new straw, and they were nice enough to send me two replacement straws at no charge. :) It would be nice to see them sell them separately on their site, as well.

I am very disappointed in this item and seller. I was expecting to receive the clear blend-n-go cup with the straw, which is what I ordered based on the picture on Amazon. The seller substited a cheap frosted plastic version. Definitely NOT worth the $19.46 selling price. A big waste of time!
11/16/09 I'm updating my original update... the cup is easy eough to use, but the lid design is terrible. If you plan to use this "on the go" you'll need a straw to put through the drink-spout. If you try to tip the cup to drink out of the spout, the lid will rest against your nose/eyes. Not comfortable and definitely NOT good to use while driving! So I'm down-grading to one star.

I love these cups! I have a little collection of them going... We decided to stop buying fancy smoothies and gourmet coffees at coffee shops, and to make our own and bring them with us on the go... This cup has really facilitated that. My kids love having their smoothies in a see-through cup, and I like that they're not spilled all over the place. They work great with my Oster classic behive blender...

The item that I received s NOT what I ordered. Do NOT order this product! It is not clear, hard plastic. Instead it is a milky white soft plastic that imparts a bad taste to your shake. It does NOT come with the straw, and the top is a flip-top, not the top shown in the photo. I ordered two for $12.99, now it will COST me about $10 to return this piece of cr*p. DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!!!

Deceptive description and picture! I thought I was ordering the glass cup with a straw as shown on the amazon page but a cheap plastic cup showed up without a straw.
Item did arrive very quickly however it wasn't what I ordered.
You would think you could trust the picture and description. I will be returning this asap.

I saw the reviews saying that the clear cup wasn't delivered and I double checked the picture, page, and description. Sure enough,the clear cup did not arrive. I did not want the travel cup and I do not want the protein-shake cup that arrived. Don't make the purchase unless the foggy plastic cup is the one you want!

I had (4) of these until one of them began leaking in the d/w, now down to (3). Hubby & I both do protein shakes for lunch often. Paid $14.99ea at local variety store. This price of $19.99 PLUS $7.99 shipping is too high, but if you find it for a reasonable price, snap it up!

A real piece of crap. Oster HAD a great clear HARD plastic beehive shaped blend and go cup and replaced it with this squishy soft cloudy plastic cup that is NOT beehive shaped. The little nubs on this version, the ones meant to hold it in place on the blender, are hollow inside and are difficult to clean out. The nubs also crack and leak.

I have gone thru 2 Bullets in the last year. I gave up and decided to use my blender to make my morning smoothies. This Blend-N-Go cup works perfectly. I bought two.
