I bought the NutriBullet 4 months ago. Definitely does what it is designed to do - blends very well and extremely easy to clean. Only negative is that slots where the cup twists on tends to get jammed. We keep our machine maticulously clean, but still can't work out what's getting in there. But a spray of detergent every few days seems to loosen it up ok.

I am happy with the final results of the smoothie. It does process really well! But the gasket came out and will not go back in. And this is after a lot of attempts, on line videos, and several people trying their hand at it. I've started using it without the gasket and if I'm precise on how I screw it on, it won't leak. Maybe one out of three times it won't leak. Not my favorite. Sorry!

I have had my Nutribullet (900w) for several months. It VERY quickly blends up the best veggie/fruit smoothies. I use fresh or frozen produce, add a little water and maybe a little fruit juice and I have never had any problems with it. I love that I'm not throwing out the pulp like you would if you used a juicer. If I use it to make a frozen coffee drink, I used crushed ice cubes just to avoid any potential problems. Easy, breezy to clean, too. Great product!

I have been using this almost daily sometimes twice a day. It is really convenient and powerful, I prepped everything ahead of time about 5 or 6 days of juicing items and freeze them. It chops through frozen beets, ginger and any fiberous veggies with ease. The reason why I gave only 4 star was because a week into using it, the tabs on the lifs that came with the cups broke. They are very flimsy the only weak link in a otherwise sturdy product.

The bullet is easy to use and easy to wash. The materials that accompany the product are well worth the price. Unfortunately, I've had it only about 2 months and it does not twist and blend as easily and it used to. I hope the problem does not get worse. If so, I'll be in touch!

I bought this about three months ago and it worked fine. However, I am now having trouble getting it started. For some reason, I have to press down now really hard in order for it to start blending. I'm wondering if something is going wrong with it. Nonetheless, I like the size of it –it fits well on the kitchen counter and it blends the ingredients well, also.

MY FAVORITE HEALTHY THINGS One of the most popular former TV episodes of the year in the renowned Oprah Winfrey show was her Holiday show called, “My Favorite Things”. Having Oprah Winfrey recommend a product could literally cause a company’s business to skyrocket overnight, a phenomenon coined “the Oprah effect”. While I am not suggesting that my recommendations for any product can compare to the clout of an Oprah Winfrey, I do like to share any books, foods, exercises, or ideas that I come across that I feel may be of interest and benefit to my loyal readers who are interested in improving their health. Therefore, with the holiday season upon us and, with that, the never-ending quest for a meaningful gift, I would like to recommend my favorite new “toy” called the Nutribullet. I bought myself one of these a few months ago after watching those infomercials on Cable TV featuring spokesperson David Wolfe. David was one of the guest speakers at the school I attended to become certified as a holistic health coach so I know he’s the real deal. I do not think that David would associate himself with any product he didn’t believe in just for the cash because he’s so passionate about what he believes. The reason I like the Nutribullet is because it’s easy to use, has a compact size, is very easy to clean and operate. The basic formula to make great tasting shakes is very straightforward, yet allows for a lot of personal variation so you can be as creative as you like. Basically, you fill half the container with fresh greens of some kind. I suggest you start with a mild flavored green like baby spinach if you are not accustomed to eating greens or don’t think you like them. Fill the rest of the container with fresh or frozen fruit, add a liquid like water or almond milk and just press to start blending. That’s it! In less than a minute you will have a great tasting, healthy drink filled with all the vitamins, minerals, and fiber that you need to start out your day. What could be easier for anyone who is short on time, but still wants to maximize their nutrition intake? Please note, that I am not a spokesperson for Nutribullet nor do I get compensated by them in any way for recommending their product. In all frankness, there are a variety of Nutribullet like blenders out there that I’m sure are just as good. I just happened to have bought this one and I’m simply telling you my first hand experiences. Let’s go over making the shake part in greater detail and I will share my personal tips with you. First of all, when you go to the store to buy the greens and fruit, I highly recommend going organic. You can always go to Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s or your local health food store, but nowadays you can easily find an organic section in traditional supermarkets like Stop & Shop & Waldbaum’s at a fair price. To save time, there is quite a selection of various greens that are already triple washed and torn into smaller pieces so all you have to do is open the package and put them right into your shake container. You can choose from baby kale, mixed spring greens, Swiss chard, or a combination of a few different greens. Secondly, when you are buying your fruit, try to get fruit that is ripened to perfection to get the best flavor or, depending on the type of fruit, allow it to ripen at home on your windowsill. Pears are a good example of this. Berries are also a great choice because they are high in antioxidants and low in sugar. Choose from blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, and dark cherries. They are available year round in the freezer section of the store. Using frozen fruit can be an advantage if you are looking for a cold, creamy texture to your shake. Speaking of creamy, I like to add half of a frozen banana to my morning shake. It’s a great source of potassium and natural sweetness, plus a great way to use those bananas that tend to all ripen at the same time. I just peel the banana, break it in half so my portion size is already set, and put the banana halves into a re-sealable plastic bag in the freezer. You can also try kiwis, apples, pineapple, or any fruit that you like. You are limited only by your taste and imagination. Coming now to the liquids, water is always a safe bet. However, depending on the quality of water in your area, I suggest using filtered or spring water to reduce exposure to chemicals and pesticides. If you want a creamier texture, you can try one of the many “milks” out there today. My favorite is unsweetened almond milk, but you can also use rice milk, coconut milk, soy milk, hemp milk, and regular cow’s milk. Again, if you are using the latter, please go organic to avoid added hormones and antibiotics. You can also cut your milk and use half milk and half water. I suggest using the unsweetened versions of these milks to keep your sugar content down. If you are looking for a thick, cold, creamy shake, I’ll share a secret with you that I learned when I was a kid from the owner of one of those old fashioned soda fountains. Put whatever liquid you are using in a glass measuring cup and put it into the freezer for 15 minutes before making your shake. It semi freezes your liquid so your shakes come out so thick you can eat it with a spoon! Other ingredients that you may want to try include plain Greek yogurt to give your gut healthy acidophilus, canned cooked pumpkin for vitamin A, unsweetened coconut water, nuts and seeds, and spices like cinnamon that help regulate blood sugar levels. To give your shake an extra nutritional boost, there are a couple of adds-ins that I use regularly and would like to recommend. You can use them alone or in combination with the others. They are: • The Nutribullet superfoods superboost. This is a package containing ground chia seeds, goji berries, maca, and cacao without any added sugar. These are all considered super foods and can add a lot of nutritional punch to your shake. You can find this product at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. • Whey protein powder is another great add in to give you protein. My favorite is a brand called Jay Robb. It comes in flavors like vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry and is sweetened with stevia so it has no extra calories from refined sugar or artificial sweeteners. It is also fat free and contains no GMO’s. • Ground flax seed is another great add in to give you Omega 3 fatty acids and additional fiber. • There is a product from Standard Process that I like called SP powder. It’s a sugar free, highly nutritious blend of various whole foods in powder form that add a lot of high quality nutrition to your shake. Here’s a favorite recipe of mine to get you started: 1. Fill your container half way with raw baby organic spinach 2. Add a cut up pear with the skin, but exclude the seeds 3. Add half a frozen banana 4. Pour in 8 ounces of semi frozen unsweetened almond milk 5. Add in half a scoop of whey protein powder 6. Add one tablespoon of Nutribullet Superfoods Superblast. 7. Press to start, blend for 30 seconds and serve. Yum!!!!! This is just one example of many delicious shakes you can make in your Nutribullet. The blender comes with a hard covered recipe book to give you loads of other ideas. You can purchase the Nutribullet on line or you can buy it at Bed, Bath & Beyond. If you use one of their 20% off coupons that they send out regularly, you can really get yourself a holiday bargain. So, if you are looking for a great gift for someone who’s trying to get healthy, or a friend who is always on the go and has little time for a healthy meal, or even for yourself, I highly recommend the Nutribullet. As someone who already eats a healthy diet, I really didn’t think I would use this that often, but thought I would try it none-the-less. Much to my surprise, the shakes are so good and filling, that I have one every morning for breakfast Monday through Friday. Of course I vary my shakes daily to insure that I get a wide variety of nutrients in my diet. So try it and let your culinary imagination run wild. Your taste buds and body will thank you for taking such good care of yourself. Isn’t that a nice holiday gift?

I really do like this juicer. the only problem I had was not getting it sealed well a couple of times so it leaked. Over time it became hard to push the container down to get it to run and eventually it would not work unless I held it down. But I was able to return it for a replacement. Hopefully, this one will work better.

I bought this about a month ago, and let me tell you I just LOVE it!! It blends spinach, nuts, frozen fruit, ice perfectly !!! It performs exactly as it is stated in the description of this product. YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THE NUTRI BULLET PRO!!

I bought this bullet about a month ago because I was in a car accident and I needed extra calcium. By having dreams that I can grind up everyday in my bowl it and drink them down I don't have to spend as much time preparing meals which is hard to do since I'm hurt. NutriBullet Works awesome grinds up food great and 3245 seconds it's drinkable and delicious. Love my NutriBullet
