Which SmartShake should you buy? A model guide

SmartShake has a broad NZ Supps shelf: ordinary shakers, compartment models, licensed designs, a jug and insulated drinkware. The best one depends on what you carry. Start with capacity and whether you need to keep powder separate, then choose a colour or character design. Artwork does not make a different-sized bottle work for your routine.

The short answer

• Choose Original2Go ONE if you want an everyday 800ml shaker with a detachable storage compartment.
• Choose Slim if a narrower bottle suits your bag or hand better.
• Choose Lite if you mainly need a straightforward mixing bottle and do not need attached storage.
• Choose the Ultimate Jug for a session's water rather than a single shake.

Original2Go versus ONE

SmartShake's Original2Go family is built around a shaker plus compartments. The original NZ listings include Neon Blue, Neon Pink, White, Space Grey and Mint Green. The ONE listings include Navy Blue, Black, Light Pink and other colours. The manufacturer lists Original2Go ONE as an 800ml model; the observed NZ retailer page describes its one detachable storage compartment. That is useful if you want to carry dry protein or another powder until the time you mix it.

Check the exact product page for capacity and included compartments, because the similar names hide different bodies. If you never use separate storage, the extra parts may simply be more to wash. If you commute with powder and water, a detachable compartment can keep the drink fresh until you need it. If a bottle already smells, here is how to stop your shaker smelling.

Slim, Lite and Revive

Smart Shake Slim is a narrower form for a smaller hand or bag pocket. NZ Supps lists it in several colours. Lite is the simpler bottle family, including plain colours and DC Comics designs in 800ml and 1000ml versions. Do not assume every Lite has the same capacity just because it shares the model name. A licensed Batman or Superman graphic is a style choice; confirm the body size in the title first.

Revive is another shaker body in Black and Camo designs in the current catalogue. If you are comparing these for mixing, look at lid, mouth opening, cleaning access and whether you actually need storage. The live product photos and specification panel are more reliable than a vague "best shaker" claim.

Jug, steel and insulated drinkware

The Ultimate Jug is for carrying more liquid across a longer session. It is a different job from mixing one protein shake. SmartShake also lists Bohtal insulated tumblers, sports bottles and a travel mug at NZ Supps. Those make sense when drink temperature and carrying water matter more than shaking powder. Reforce stainless-steel listings were present but showed zero inventory in the snapshot. Do not choose a steel option from the blog without checking live stock.

Licensed funnels are another accessory, not a full shaker. A Whey2Go Funnel carries a serving of powder and helps pour it into a bottle later. It will not hold and mix a whole drink on its own.

Make the choice in two minutes

First decide how much liquid you need. Next decide whether you want a separate compartment. Then decide whether your priority is mixing powder, carrying water or keeping a drink insulated. Finally choose the colour. Our existing cross-brand shaker comparison is useful if you are weighing SmartShake against another brand; this guide is for choosing within SmartShake.

Browse the SmartShake collection for current stock. It has many model and colour listings, so the individual product page should settle capacity and materials before you order.

FAQ

Is Original2Go ONE the same as Original2Go? They are related models but can have different capacity and compartment setups. Check the exact listing; ONE is shown as 800ml by SmartShake.

Which SmartShake is simplest? Lite is a straightforward starting point if you do not need attached powder storage. Confirm the size for the colour or design you choose.

Does a DC Comics shaker mix differently? The design primarily changes the look. Compare its underlying model and capacity rather than assuming the artwork changes the mixing system.

Is Ultimate Jug for protein shakes? It is mainly a larger liquid carrier. A smaller shaker may be easier if you just mix one serving of protein.

What is a Whey2Go Funnel? It is a powder-carrying funnel accessory. It is not a full bottle.

Were all models stocked? No. The 23 September 2026 snapshot showed some colours and Reforce stainless-steel listings out of stock. Check the live product page.
