How It Works
The key behind this product is its ability to emulsify ingredients without the use of blades or any electronically powered components. Vigorous shaking by the user is all it takes because the inside of the container is specially shaped to take advantage of several physical laws. Without becoming too complicated, the process can be understood as causing the food inside to "smash itself to bits" with minimal effort.
Features
- Smash and Save
Shakeez lets people use the same space to both pulverize ingredients into a near liquid state and to store the results. It also has an easy-open cap that enables pouring or drinking with ease.
- Extra Storage
The base of this product features two different storage slots. At the very bottom is a large cap that can be twisted on or off, similar to the placement of a cup on some thermoses. It can serve a multitude of purposes, from storing foods for quick transport, to hiding and storing keys while at the gym. Above this detachable area is a smaller storing drawer that can be slid in and out of the body. The manufacturers suggest that this spot is useful for keeping vitamins and similarly sized items.
- Microwave Safe
While smoothies and milkshakes may seem like obvious things to make with this product, it turns out that hot items like omelettes can also be prepared and even cooked inside the Shakeez using a microwave.
Benefits
- Superior Safety
Blenders and similar devices are dangerous. Blades and crushing mechanisms can do severe damage to flesh, and accidents can happen to anyone.

It doesn't need blades or electricity, plus it's not made of glass and metal.
- Portability
It's not exactly feasible to carry around a blender, but that's basically what this product enables. Shakeez is an all-in-one food smasher, container and dispenser. It also moonlights as portable cookware and as a multi-item travel storage unit.
- Easy to Clean
This product is dishwasher safe and requires minimal disassembling. An additional bonus is that it is easy to handle for cleaning purposes since there are no blades or other dangerous pieces that need special attention.
