My Video Review of the Fusion Mixer
When I received this thing called the Fusion Mixer, I’d never owned an automatic protein shaker cup. Â Never had the need really and probably still do not but it was nice to be able to quickly mix up a drink intra-workout or after.
Pros:
- easily mixed protein
- not too bulky
- smooth mixing action
Cons:
- uses 2 AA batteries
- battery cover easily comes off
- mixer ultimately broke down
After 4 months of use, this just stopped working. Â At that point, I’d lost the battery cover but it still worked. Â What I believe happened was mixing up protein and other “sticky” substances without quickly rinsing it out, caused build-up around the mixer. Â It started to stick.
Eventually, no amount of cleaning made it work again and it seemed like the gears were slipping as well.
Fancy fitness gadget that was cool but not hardcore enough to last 1/100 of a regular shaker bottle. Â For all intents and purposes, it’s just easier to bring in shaker bottle with some type of mixing ball that will do the same and never break down.
10 out of 10 for coolness but 2 out of 10 for longevity.
Update - Try the LaCuisine Tornado Portable Mixer or the Fit & Fresh CleanTek Power Mixer Pro.
