ZAPPOWARE Bartender Set with Boston Cocktail Shaker – Ideal even as Home Bar Tool Kit – Stainless Steel

Great for someone diving into cocktails and basic mixology. I didnt use all of the products in this kit but ill cover what I did.The shaker is nice for the price, its reasonably solid (non weighted). It typically stays closed and I have yet to have any real issues with it. My only gripe is that the inner edges are a little sharp and I have superficially cut my hand on more than one occasion. I took some 2000 grit sandpaper and smoothed the inner edge out on the small cup and all is good now.The jigger is basic but it works, I prefer the OXO mini angled measuring cups. Theyre slower, but more accurate and easier to read.Barspoon is fine, hefty and ive had no issues stirring martinis and negronis.Love the waiters corkscrew, bought this same exact one years ago.Muddler works fine, no issues.The Hawthorne is usable, but almost always requires double straining. I bought a Barfly Hawthorne strainer and the coils are heavier and much tighter, definitely worth the ~$12 as it feels like it will also last a lifetime.The pourers are fine, I personally dont use them as they introduce air into the spirits through the breather tube and will cause faster oxidation and allow any pests in like fruit flies. Good for parties though.

Kit had everything I needed for my starter bar. A couple quick things I liked: shaker seals easily with no leaks and muddler is very solid.The only reason I rate 4/5 stars, the shaker is pretty thin. Shaking with ice, it gets way too cold for me to hold on to. And while the shaker seems sturdy and good quality, because it’s so thin, one could easily re-shape the shakers by squeezing them which could possibly weaken the seal.Overall, happy with the product for the price as it gets the job done.

Works perfect, looks and feels professional. I serve at a fine dining restaurant and after my engraved wine opener got snatched, I bought this one. While it might not have my flower designs engraved into the wood, it's still a pretty little thing to look at. Operates smoothly and is cool to the touch. Would recommend for both professionals and the homebodies.

I bought it for the muddler. Wish the size of the measuring jiggers were shown. I like the stirring spoon but cannot figure out how to use the wine cork puller as a bottle opener; maybe it isn't a bottle opener but my old wine cork puller is.

This kit is amazing for the money - and includes everything you need to have your own cocktail bar. I've already used this and washed it several times and everything has stayed intact, and seems to be very quality. Several of my friends asked me to share the link for this kit because they were so impressed after they had used it at my house. It's a definite must-have for any home bar, and a great, budget-friendly gift idea for any person that enjoys making mixed drinks.

I got this for my boyfriend for Christmas and he absolutely loves using it. It’s a great set that has a lot of the essentials, it’s made with good materials, and comes in the cylinder box for storing pieces together.I’m a bartender so I also really liked the metal pour-spouts, which are far better then that plastic alternative.

Really nice set ! We have used for several months now. I bought for the DH for Christmas. Very handy to have around the house and the house and we have put to good use during our past few months of quarantine, lit at home.

Much better products out there. Do your research. Don't waste your money on this one.
