I bought this last year for college since I had to start "The Virgin Diet." I was really excited not to have to lug around a huge blender and the package clearly stated it could make smoothies. So I finally got to using it this month and the first day it took me over an hour (this is giving the bullet a break after 40 seconds of on usage because it cannot run for longer than a minute at a time) after this time, my fruit was still not chopped up. I had to eat my acai bowl with hard frozen fruit in it. I tried to make a smoothie next with only 1/4 a cup of frozen fruit...still frozen fruit does not chop up. I left my frozen fruit out for 2 hours while I ran hoping that may be the problem, still, my fruit does not chop up. I had the NINJA at home and truly wish I had spent the extra money on that then this awful thing. I can't do anything with it, it's just as loud as a blender, and the results are just basically what you started with with a little mush here and there. Extremely upset over this product.

I loved the Magic Bullet when I first got it a few months ago even though the only thing I ever use it for is to occasionally make milkshakes. When I used it last week it made some weird noises and smelled like it was burning. I took it apart to find where the top and bottom meet to make the blades spin it was totally worn out. It probably hadn't been used more than 20 times and is now totally useless. I am very disappointed in the quality of the product.

I'm a protein believer but I hate eating all the food I need to get in 80 to 100 g of protein every day. Now I use 1/2 banana, Glucerna (medically ordered) and my protein power, 2 ice cubes with skim milk as a filler. I get almost 50 g of protein this way every morning and it taste so good too. Thanks for this Bullet maker is so much easier and quicker to enjoy my protein and get started each day with so much.

I've used Magic Bullets every day for years and they've been fantastic. When my latest finally quit after several years, I tried replacing it. Three new Magic Bullets in a row had to be returned. They all were barely able to spin a smoothie, smelled bad, overheated and stopped in less than 30 seconds. You've ruined a great product with whatever product or manufacturing changes you've made. Sad.

I bought this about a week ago and I do love it a lot, but it doesn't blend up smoothies in 10 seconds. I put frozen fruit, yogurt, and milk in my smoothies and it takes about a minute to fully blend everything so that's a bit of a disappointment.  I do like the consistency it gives my smoothies and the extra cups is extremely convenient.  I would recommend this to someone who is looking for a basic blender but if you're looking to crush ice and use frozen fruit all the time I would recommend something with a more powerful motor. 

I was fortunate enough to win this Nutri Bullet. I had saved using it until by former blender stopped working after having it for almost 5 years. I make raw veggie shakes and my other cheap blender would liquefy the shakes and they were great. But this Magic Bullet has only one setting and leaves my lemons with the rinds and celery all chunky, no matter how many times I mix it or how long I leave it blending. Will be buying another cheap, reliable blender which actually liquefies smoothies.

We got the bullet as a wedding present and one of the little white tabs broke then today (8 months later all the rubber came off of the bottom of the blade and now we can't use the machine at all. I am a little disappointed in the poor quality of this machine.

I am not sure when I ought it. I had a friend with one and she loved it. I bought one and didn't use for 6 months. Then decided to use it and used it about 9 times. Now it doesn't work. Something is rubbing and the base is covered in white powder. I think the plastic is grinding. So sorry I bought it. Wish I had put the money toward a better product. My magic bullet is black - not white.

"Original" was way better and came with multiple blades. This is a distinct drop in quality and it shows in both look and feel and operation. Why degrade your product offering over time when you could have improved? It is sad the first model was better and the company couldn't keep that standard.

bought this last week and the fist smoothie I made was perfectly blended. but ever since every time I make a smoothie the machine shuts off when it thinks its done and doesn't let me blend anymore and even if I take the plug out and put it back in it doesn't work. also when it blends for a few mins the machine gives off a smell.
