Product Review - Shake N Take Personal Smoothie Maker
| The problem with smoothies and smoothie machines, most people would tell you, is the mess they leave behind. You know what I mean, those hefty smoothie machines that have a dozen pieces, most of which are not dishwasher safe. And those sharp edges that pose a danger to your fingers as you take apart the sloppy machines. But what else can you do if you want to enjoy a fresh healthy smoothie for breakfast? Enter the Shake N Take Personal Smoothie Maker. Perfect for the individual who loves a refreshingly energizing smoothie in the morning but doesn’t have the time to deal with the hassle of a blender or traditional bulky smoothie maker. |
The design of the Shake N Take personal smoothie machine is as ingenious as it is innovative. Not only does the high power motor whip up a smoothie in a flash, the plastic blending container doubles as a carry-along cup. The simple design leaves no mess at all since you take the whole smoothie with you in the container you made it in. The plastic lid of the smoothie machine is also a functional sports bottle-style flip top that enables you to sip as you go without worrying about spills. And the whole thing fits into most automobile cup holders too. Now you can enjoy a healthy breakfast no matter how rushed you are in the morning without the fear that you will end up with fresh strawberry smoothie on your work clothes.
And the entire Shake N Take Personal Smoothie Maker stands only 14 inches high so it fits easily on any countertop and won’t take up much valuable space. Additionally the whole Shake N Take Personal Smoothie Maker is dishwasher safe so cleanup at home is a breeze too. Just throw the machine into the dishwasher and forget about it until the next morning when you need your smoothie fix. The cup holds 16 ounces of liquid and can blend almost any fruit or vegetable. The Shake N Take is designed to be so easy to encourage people to eat and snack healthier.
The only problem with the Shake N Take is that it is intended mainly for light duty so it probably won’t be able to handle crushing ice or anything like that. So, unfortunately, if you like frozen drinks (such as daiquiris) instead of smoothies, this isn’t the machine for you.

I have read that the Shake ‘N Take is very difficult to clean. Is that correct?
November 30th, 2007 at 6:33 pmHello Barbara,
I don’t find it hard to clean at all. Most of the time I give it a quick rinse with some tab water after I’m done with my smoothie and then stick it in the dishwasher.
When I need to get it cleaned right away (because I’m making more smoothies), I wash it in some soapy water with a little brush.
It’s a lot easier to clean than my full-size blender.
