Oxo SteeL Cocktail Shaker

Very sleek looking design, that said, very poor manufacturing very very poor, the thing leaked and leaked and leaked. I tried to modify it (I have access to a workshop) and managed to get it to seal a little bit better. But this should not have been necessary. I gave it one star but really it should get 1/2 a star at best.

I am a big fan of OXO products and buy them with my eyes closed, I should have reviewed this product because I now see that other people have had the same complaint.

I've had this shaker for about a year now, and much as I love the style and the feel of it - and Oxo products in general - this is one to avoid. I've been quite surprised at the reviews saying this thing leaks. I've had the exact opposite problem: after one or two uses, the top half of the shaker becomes virtually impossible to remove. And I mean impossible. Only by waiting several WEEKS have I been, on occasion, able to twist it off. The only thing I can figure is that atmospheric conditions need to be just right for the bloody thing to open. After a year of this I've finally given up. Save yourself the money and trouble and avoid this shaker. It's one Oxo design they just didn't get right.

I work as the bar manager for a restaurant in NYC. Recently I purchased four of these shiny little shakers because I thought they were visually appealing. Unfortunately, they leak all over the place, making a sticky mess in their wake.

These certainly look sheik, but perhaps look elsewhere if you are looking for a high volume, truly functional bar accessory.

I called OXO to tell them about the leakage issue I was having with my Shaker. They told me there was a slight problem that has since been corrected. They sent me a new Shaker free of charge and the problem no longer exists. I am delighted with my OXO Shaker. It is functional and stylish and has surpassed my expectations.

A great addition to your bar keep. This is a 3 piece shaker that includes a jigger in the lid. This makes for a wonderful addition at home or in your picnic basket. OXO has made another brilliant design/product. You won't be disappointed.
