Cant say much about this puppy, but it falls in to the catagory of you gotta have one!. Shaking is ok, and I shook bottles for many a year. Truth be known I also turned my two daughters into a press gang for bottle shaking duty back in the long ago. Item works great, and cleans up without a problem. I just take it and stick it into the bottle of brush cleaner and run it for a couple of seconds and that is it. The only thing you should do is to pick out the center part of the mixing paddle. It has s dimple in it that collects paint, so pick it out especially when you are changing color or paint type. Excellent item for the price going to get a spare for the future. Marvin
