Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Enhanced Efficiency and Performance: LabGenius HS120598DS Mini Vortex Mixer Unleashed! by Wagner Witlin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not just for chemists

I use this powerful little vortex to remix everything in a tiny bottle: paint, ink, nail polish, liquid watercolors. It shakes up the settled pigment, but creates fewer bubbles than a shaker. Mini Swivel feels and looks like a quality tool. Other paint/polish shakers seemed useless to me and would take up too much precious desk space. The mini swirl measures 4 inches wide and 3 inches high. It's deceptively heavy and stable for its compact size. Of course, most bottles aren't the size of test tubes, but simply push the bottom edge toward the center to turn on the motor and hold it there for about 15 seconds. It does a great job. I also bought some stainless steel ball bearings (link follows) to make the job even more efficient. Does it do as good a job as these color mixing tools? Probably not, but I have yet to find one that is affordable without numerous complaints that they no longer work. I assume all that shaking will shake the engine for sure? I've been using this Vortex for about six months with no problems.

Pros
  • Stable platform reduces sample falling while working
Cons
  • Boring packaging
