Magic Bullet High Speed Blender Mixer System

Pros: mixing cups, small size.
Cons: motor isn't powerful enough, consistancy of end product is poor.

I received this as a Christmas gift last year. I saw it on Tv and thought it would be great for me.

Small profile, touted to grind, chop, mix, etc.

Came with alot of mixing cups, a few chopping blades, mixing blades, etc, as well as storage tops, and a juicing setup.

I was excited to use it, but unfortunately, the motor is really disappointing, it doesn't chop that well, not consistant, gets gummed up, etc. Tried to make smoothies, that worked out ok. I did try ice, not good. The motor even starts to smell a little like it could burn up with anything substantial. I never tried the juicer portion of it.

I do like the mixing cups though, I use them to microwave and store in and they are dishwasher safe.

Other than that, I would say, It's not worth the money. Your better off getting the full size blender and a food processer.

Pros: Compact size, promising capabilities
Cons: Poor quality, cheaply made

We bought the Magic Bullet because we were impressed with the infomercial and needed a mini-blender for mixing our baby's formula. We never used it for anything other than that and it stopped working after about a month. It was not cheap so this was very disappointing!

Pros: sleek design.
Cons: too many parts to store away.

I was extremely disappointed in the magic bullet. I've been wanting it for so long. I finally got it this Christmas as a gift. I tried it for the first time 2 weeks ago. Tried to make hummus, but it was too thick and would not process the chick peas properly. I would have had to use too much oil and it then would not be healthy. I tried to make apple juice and was very disappointed. I can't believe they actually claim it's a juicer. All it did was make a big mess.

Pros: Pretty. That is the only pro
Cons: Small. Motor burns up if used for too many seconds.

When I saw the infomercial I thought this machine could possibly be versatile and serve a lot of purposes in my kitchen. The first one didn't work. I returned it. The second one operated poorly. When I called customer service to ask for advice some lady wanted to know what I wanted. The only suggestion she would give me was to return it. The customer service was not business or professionally oriented. The best favor I have ever done for myself was returning this piece of junk.

Pros: Compact, great chopping power, does what it advertises.
Cons: Motor will overheat if used for longer than a minute.

The magic bullet does exactly what it says it does. I love it for the fact I do not have a lot of kitchen counter space, and instead of having a big bulky blender, I just use my magic bullet.

Today I used it to make chicken salad and a mixed drink (pina colada) since today was so hot! It did the job well. I also like all the attachments and the recipe book that comes with it. I can't wait to make some homemade salsa!

The great thing about this is that you can make you own homemade recipes and not worry about all the hidden salt, sugars, etc. that are in store bought products.

Pros: You can wash the food out of it by running it under water.
Cons: Unscrews during use. Wastes food, money, and time.

I have tried my Magic Bullet Express many times. Every time it has leaked to the point that whatever is in there winds up in the machine and on the counter and floor.

I know I am attaching the lid correctly and tightly. I have checked that every time after the first flood (orange juice and organic raspberries). I've even tried it with just water, shaking the heck out of the cup with the blades screwed on. It didn't leak a drop until I attached it to the base. Then, the flood.

I have checked the gasket, and it has always been in place. Plus, it is not simply that the cup leaks, but the blades actually come completely unscrewed from the cup during use.

Thankfully, Bed, Bath & Beyond is happy to refund my purchase price. (I'm just out the food, of course.)

Off to go clean up the last stick messy from the Magic Mess Maker!

Pros: Dices veggies in seconds. Excellent for mixing hard to stir ingredients.
Cons: A little too easy to overdo it and end up with pulverized goo.

I received my Magic Bullet as a gift this summer and it's taken quite a beating. My teenage son uses it to make omelets. I use it to chop veggies and blend up ingredients for things such as cheeseballs.

It does what it's supposed to do if you use it as directed. That part can be tricky as it's easy to push it down and slide it under the groove so that it doesn't stop when you let up on it. Just a second too much can turn your vegetables into soup stock.

I've read other mentions of the plastic gears breaking easily. I've not had this problem but I can see how it could happen. I've warned my son about getting it stuck on so he's got a hair trigger reaction and often pulls it off the base unit a little too quickly. When this happens I can hear the gears gnashing and it sounds as if it will break.

It's small size makes for easy storage. It really does work well if you are careful with it. Worth the money if you don't have counter space for a full sized blender to sit out.

Pros: None.
Cons: See Above.

...that are a bust in real life. What a waste of $60. I'm one more try away from tossing the damn thing. I can't believe there isn't SOMETHING that it does that would make me feel better for having spent money on it. If you're reading this: SAVE YOUR MONEY!! Your food processor and blender will do just fine. All this does is take up space.

Pros: Quick and fast
Cons: Over heats quickly

My daughter and I just love this little gadget, because we like to make our own recipes of milkshake and we can do this in our own individual cups.

Pros: Compact, nimble, surprisingly durable.
Cons: Upfront cost, but one gets what one pays for.

I've been using this almost daily to make quick chocolate protein shakes or coffee cappuccino drinks. It's lasted well over a year now and works great. The array of drink and blender containers are perfect for what I need.

Quite a novel gadget... especially for an infomercial gadget. :)

Pros: Occupies a very small footprint and nice looking
Cons: It breaks and breaks and breaks.

I have had my Magic Bullet for less than a year and have already had to have two replacements sent to me. Just last night -- not to my surprise -- the third unit broke, so I will be calling Homeland Housewares for another unit this afternoon. They will replace the broken units for up to a year. After that, I'm out of luck.

The only thing I use it for is to grind pepper (a couple of times tops for each unit) and to chop garlic for one of my favorite meals (about 4 to 6 times a month). That's it. Nothing else. And yet the unit can't hold up to that amount of usage.

I went to HSN.com and read the customer reviews and learned that many people are having the same problem. You can read about them on the HSN website.

Unless you are fond of parting with your hard-earned money, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!

Pros: Powerful, Easy to Use, Clean, Quick, Small, Useful
Cons: Loud, False Advertisement,

I received a Magic Bullet Blender for Christmas and I was amazed with the quality. What impressed me is how easy it is to use. You just simply fill the container / cup with whatever you want blended, screw on the blade, place the container into the blender, and push it down and in seconds you have created a blended new products. Its great for making frozen beverages or other blended foods such as salsa. The advertisements exaggerate a bit, but it is a fairly fast process and you do use it practically every day! The set comes with 6 containers, 2 Blades and some extra accessories. The Magic Bullet is also very small, I don't mind leaving it out on my cupboard each day. Its also fairly powerful. For such a great price the Magic Bullet is a great thing to have.

Pros: Great little on the counter, always ready tool.
Cons: well let me see....none.

I love it, I had it for over a year and use it mainly for quickie stuff, the heavy duty stuff I leave for the big blender of course, I made smoothies. guacamole, salsa, omelets, and tons of other stuff, but a couple of days ago I broke it, I did not secure the blender blade and it leaked inside and damage the motor, so I ordered a new one and can't wait to get it, there are no cons only pro's especially when you have kids, my daughter she is 9 blends her own smoothies and shakes she loves it as do I.

Pros: It takes up very little space on counter and clean up is a snap.
Cons: None for us.

I bought the Magic Bullet because I have a 9 year old daughter who loves to make shakes and smoothies and I hated to drag out the blender to make a 1 serving shake. I knew that making shakes/smoothies would be the main purpose of the Magic Bullet for us and I got it for a good price at Linens-N-Things.

I'm very pleased with our purchase and we continue to use the Magic Bullet at least a couple of times a week. The Magic Bullet actually does a better job of chopping up the ice than our blender. In addition to lots of shakes and smoothies we have also made scrambled eggs and pancake batter. I'm looking forward to trying some fun frozen drinks in the summer.

Pros: easy to use, easy to clean, very useful
Cons: very loud, could use a lower speed

I absolutely love my magic bullet. There are limitations to what you can make with it because it is a very high speed and high impact processor. Once you've realized this, you can do SO much with it. I always have mine on my counter. I use it for guacamole, soups, mixed drinks, sauces, and more!!!
