Soing 11-Piece Black Bartender Kit,Perfect Home Cocktail Shaker Set for Drink Mixing,Stainless Steel Bar Tools with Stand,Velvet Carry Bag & Cocktail Recipes Cards (Black)

For a long time, I'd been looking for a good bartending kit, and I figured Amazon would be the best place to look. There are a lot of kits to choose from, and they're about 95% similar out there, so pick one. Because it was black and had good reviews, I chose this one. br>br>I noticed the strainer had some warping in the middle, which was basically a piece of metal that rendered that small section of the strainer useless, almost immediately after unpacking the item. Second, as I had suspected with items of this nature, the black color was simply painted on and was extremely scratchable. I believe I used the kit twice before noticing a significant amount of scratching. I doubt it would have lasted a month of normal, at-home life. Without getting scratched, it can be used at home. I'm thinking a bartending kit is one of those items where I'll just have to pay a lot of money for a good product. br>br>Prosbr>- Good- in search of a kitbr>- Contains a wooden block to store and display all of your piecesbr>br>Consbr>- The package was damaged when it arrived. br> Scratches easilybr>br>- The wooden block does not fit the items well - They must be perfectly balanced, and even the tiniest movement will cause half of the items to fall over.

Because the foil flakes off and gets into the shaker, I would not recommend this product to anyone. Plastic foil is used to wrap the shaker. Condensation forms on the outside of the shaker when ice is added. As a result of the condensation, the foil begins to peel away almost immediately. When you remove the shaker's lid, the flaking foil is drawn into the shaker itself, and it inevitably ends up in your drink. And you don't want to drink foil. br>br> I completely ruined a batch of (expensive) fancy drinks I was preparing for guests. It was depressing. br>br>In a nutshell, this is a bad investment.

Then the new gold stuff arrived, but the shaker was severely scratched, so I emailed the company directly and said, "I'm having a lot of issues, can I just get a new shaker?" They promptly responded and sent it, which I appreciate and am grateful for. It appears to be of higher quality than it is, but it appears to be pricey, at least for everyday use in gold. Scratches easily and smudges easily as well.

Stupidity at its finest. After 30 minutes of soaking in soap, I was finally able to remove the lid from the shaker. I was making a cocktail when the filter popped out. This is a kit that should not be purchased.

At this price, I wasn't expecting super high quality, but I was hoping to be the first to scratch it because of the black finish. It wasn't anything major, but it didn't appear to be brand new when I first opened it. br>br>Overall, a good product that, minus the scratches, looks pretty good!.

Item is of poor quality, poorly packaged, and not suitable as a gift. The label on the package states that it was created in Germany. For the cocktail connoisseur with a sense of whimsy. br>br>Seller shipped the item in its mediocre (with typos) packaging, with no outer packaging. The lid of the item's package was open when it arrived because it had not been taped shut. From shipping, the box was filthy. This purchase did not meet my expectations.

and it's annoying to have one item flopping around every time I reach for something else. (Don't worry about the shaker; it's in the dirty dishes. ) Cute, but that one thing disappointed me. For someone with OCD, this is not a good thing. Aside from that, the items are extremely cute and of good quality.

I'd been given the task of ordering a large quantity of cocktail shaker kits as a company gift, and this set was by far the worst I'd seen. Every component of the kit was already flaking paint when it arrived in the box, which I easily peeled off with a quick swipe of my fingernail. Despite my best efforts, I was unable to remove the top of the shaker from the body. For whatever reason, I am unable to suggest this to anyone. It was not only complete garbage, but it was also one of the more expensive options we investigated.
