The 747/747R design is similar to that of the corresponding 737/737R, but offers more capacity. They can accommodate just as many or more flasks of a given size than the chest type 767/767R. Moreover, they also offer advantages over chest type shakers such as a shelf, a smaller footprint, and the ability to stack two units.

The 787/787R are affordably priced models with similar performance as the 737/737R and 747/747R. They are excellent alternatives when there is a budget contraint.
