Customer Reviews of 5-Hour Energy
Customer Review: True to the commercial, but caffeine amount is questionable.
Summary: 4 Stars
As a person who has never consumed a cup of coffee or other energy drink before in his life, I can't say for certain just how effective 5-hour energy is in comparison.
I can say that it worked, though -- my God, did it work. Having drunk merely half the bottle, I felt energized and ready to roll in three or four minutes. The product was true to its label in that I was able to study with concentration from 12 o'clock to 5 with no "afternoon slump" or "jitters"(though for a time I did experience a subtle tingling in my fingers). When my five hours were up, I came back to normal and didn't feel any side effects or "caffeine crash". The product is not addictive: I bought a pack of twelve bottles a month ago and still haven't used them all.
5-hour energy should be used with wisdom, however -- the manufacturers say that it contains "no more caffeine than a cup of coffee" but doesn't specify the size of the cup. It took me an hour longer than normal to get to sleep when I drank a whole bottle.
That said, I have no other complaints to offer of this excellent energy drink. I suggest taking half of a bottle whenever you need a boost of concentration or motivation, as that is usually sufficient. Also, drink these only when you need to -- it's potent stuff, and I wager those little bottles can disappear quickly.
5-hour energy is a great resource for workouts, daily business, and the hurly-burly of modern life. I give it 4 stars.

Summary: 2 Stars
I drank one 5 hour energy shot this morning. Prior to taking it, I was extremely sleepy and was having trouble staying awake. After drinking it, I instantly felt more energized. Despite the HORRIBLE taste, I really liked it...at first. Now, a few hours after taking it, I have a slight headache, am having muscle pain, and have crashed. I just took a two hour nap and am not feeling well.
The taste made me want to vomit.
Could not get the taste out of my mouth for a few hours.
Customer Review: You don't have to drink the entire 2 oz at one time
Summary: 5 Stars
I drink this one third at a time. It works great for me. My only complaint is that it is so expensive (I ave 26/20 bottles).
On the bottle it says it will keep for 3 days once opened. I usually drink one bottle over the course of a day and it makes a huge difference for me!
Customer Review: This is nasty
Summary: 1 Stars
I tried a bottle today and it was a waste of money. I drank the whole bottle and it tasted very gross, I almost gagged on the aftertase even though I chased it with water. Felt a tiny energy boost but less than normal from coffee. There was a "crash." Slight but still, they advertise that there isn't one.
