| Does Anyone Own a NUTRIBULLET????? I have been hearing really great things about this powerful little "blender"....can anyone attest to this first hand? I am interested in making green smoothies and veggie soups, etc to aid me on my weight loss journey!! Nutri Bullet NBR-12 12-Piece Hi-Speed... Target and Walmart sell it for $99 but I mostly provided the Amazon link for the reviews. I will be purchasing one of these this weekend to try for myself but was hoping for feedback and recipes, tips, etc

| My friend Cara (Cara41583) just bought one and she really likes it. She's not on YT much but if you PM her I'm sure she'll give you her feedback.

| Thanks! That's what got me thinking more seriously about purchasing one, actually. I know if I go to Walmart or Target I can always return it if it doesn't do what I need it to do.

| I just saw this advertised on TV last evening....one of those infomercials...I do have the original Bullet and I really do love this! I use it every am for the last 4 years, making my protein smoothie....still works like a charm....blades are not even dull! I am really interested in this one too! I think it is larger...I can make my son's smoothie as well as mine, at the same time! |

| I have one! I love it! I'm not gonna lie, I saw the infomercial and I was totally sold. Not because of the "cyclonic spinning action" or whatever they're saying to try and sell it.. I bought it bacause I wanted something small, conveinent and easy to clean. It's exactly that. It's pretty powerful too. Today I made a drink with spinach, onion, garlic, avocado, celery, red bell pepper, onion, jalapeņos and some flax seeds and it liquified all of that in like a minute. Pretty awesome. It made a better dip then a drink. I read mixed reviews but so far Im happy with it and I'd reccomend it. The original magic bullet has been around for a long time so Im confident they can put out a quiality product. |

| I had a bullet and it was a peice of junk. It did not have the power to do anything ! I gave it to goodwill. A good blender with some hoursepower is a better deal IMO

| This nutribullet sounds great. I have a Blendtec but the nutribullet may be good for travel.

| This is supposed to be much stronger than the bullet. Plus, it's fully refundable. What do I have to lose??

I've only had it for a few days.. I haven't had problems with it leaking yet. I've only had a chance to make a couple of smoothies with it so far. IMO for only $100 bucks its worth the risk. It has a 1 year warranty and if you're really worried about it you can purchase an extra 25 year warranty for only 25 bucks. That's a pretty good deal. | |

| I went to 4 stores and all were sold out But since I had my heart set on starting this weekend, I purchased a Cuisinart that has the same bullet "style" from BBB The saleswoman said to use it for as long as needed to determine if I liked it. Just keep box and receipt I made a smoothie already ~ so far so good
