I'd been making smoothies in a blender for years - it always clogged, they had to be made really watery. This works amazingly well - can make smoothies so thick I have to eat them with a spoon. Haven't found anything it can't make into a smoothie yet. There is an issue with leaks - I have to be careful, or the lid can become loose while operating. That's the only drawback.

I bought the NutriBullet a little over three months ago. So far I am down almost twenty pounds and use it every day. It took about a week to get use too but I am hooked. I find it easier to use frozen fruit for variety and price. That way you do not need ice.

This is sure a powerful blender and could rival the Vitamix but the blade comes dull as heck! I’m looking forward to getting it professionally sharpened; once I do that I think I’ll have a great blender! It would be nice if they’d actually manufacture sharp blades though. Also, you need quite a bit of liquid in it. It doesn’t work for making really thick ice cream style blends.

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.

First, for those who talk about it running over....all you have to do is following the instructions and properly tighten the top!!!! NO PROB!! I love this thing. I even sold my Ninja--didn't need it anymore! For once in my life I can eat raw greens and fruit without digestive problems!! Can you imagine how great that is? God bless who ever created this awesome machine, I just love it :-)

I bought this perhaps a year ago and I used it everyday. The only problem for me was holding down to make it work because my kitchen counters are high and I am short. At the end I could not bother using it. But it is great for your everyday healthy juices.

We bought this 2 months ago. I had problem with O ring come apart and get tangelled in blade assy. & then started leaking through. But After getting new assy. everything worked best. We made Hot soup with it couple of times it does great job. We are enjoying it very much.

I loved the idea and the convenience BUT it needs better engineering! It is hard for a woman to get the base screw eon tight enough AND if she does, it it impossible to unscrew - so I have already ruined the base by a leak - too bad it is not a SEALED base like better machines. I would love it with improved engineering.

This is my second nutri bullet. I upgraded to the more powerful bullet. I really love the ease of making a smoothie. Clean up is so easy too. This machine pulverizes everything so it is nice and smooth. The only reason that I did not give it a full 5 stars is because my last nutri bullet started leaking after about a year. It also would only accommodate one of the several blender cups and only in a certain position. I hope this new one lasts longer.

I am concerned about this breaking! A few times there has been liquid in the machine after I take the container off and when I stop the process, there's a cracking loud sound which makes me wonder if the plastic part that grips the turning cover is broken. So far, so good, but I'm sure it will crack sometime..
