| i'm on my second one, the first one I bought at canadian tire and the second at costco. the first one broke after about a year of use and the second has been working fine for about two years.
i doesn't do everything, or even very much, of what the informercial says it can but it is good for making smoothies. i run everyday so i use it to make a protein shake after my runs. it fits nicely on the counter so i don't have to put it away. |

| I've had my Magic Bullet for over about 4 years. When my son was a baby i made all of his food for him using this it was so easy. I still use it alot when i have to do a quick blending job or if I have to puree anything. Never had a problem and only had to replace the gasket ring once and it came with two extra. |

| I bought the COOKS brand (available at J.C. Penney) for $25 - with a $10 rebate - and it's great. I use it at least twice a day to make frozen smoothies & I've had it for about 3 months. |

| Like most of the other reviewers I love the magic bullet, but like most others mine eventually broke. First the plastic O-ring broke on mine which may have been because i sometimes overtighten the lid to avoid leaks. Ultimately my wife and I tried to take it on our vacation to Jamaica to make smoothies and blended drinks, when we plugged it in at our hotel to make some fresh pineapple, mango, and banana smoothies it died on us; fortunately fresh fruit is just as good as blended fruit. We now have a new one and haven't used it as much as the original. Maybe the newness of it is over...oh well. Great product though for mixing drinks. |

| I love using the Magic Bullet. I use it to beat eggs, make fruit smoothies and shakes and to make tuna salad.
The first time I bought it, I returned it because the liquid would sometimes seep through. But I found that I really missed having the Magic Bullet, so I called and found out that it was probably the rubber gasket that had to be replaced. I ended up buying it again (at a local store). My only suggestion is to make sure that the top is screwed on very tight when using thin liquid. |

| We had for several months until the inside clear plastic part break in pieces. I think they should make that part in steel, this way it would last longer. Sad and disappointed. I really liked the thing but 100.00 to buy again doesn’t worth it |

| I use it at least once a day to make smoothies, only 2 problems:
1) After about 4-5 months of use, my first one got stuck together - I couldn't remove the cup from the base after blending a smoothie. I called the support guys and they shipped me out a replacement.
2) I tried chopping up some hard cheese (I think it was pretty old - was originally ground parmesan but was hardened to the point that I had to saw the plastic container it was in apart to get the cheese out) and bent a blade. Hardly a fault of the device, though.
Since then I've had no problems, it's been over 2 years now. |

| I use it often for whipping scrambled eggs. But most of all for making smoothies to take to work. I love the fact that it has a screw on lid. Many of my friends and coworkers and gone out and purchased one after using mine. |

| As long as you got the deal paying around $50 per set, it is an OK deal. It makes margharitas pretty well, but when chopping things that are tougher (like cheese), it is not the best.

| I loved the magic bullet while it worked, after a month it stopped working. I went to make a frozen drink, and nothing. Also our first o-ring was also faulty, once we replaced it the seal was good. |

| We love the magic bullet, my kids use it all the time for smoothies, pancake mix etc. Our first one lasted 2 years before a part broke. We have another one now and love it, but the juicer isn't great. Overall, a great product! |

| Great for individual milkshakes, making homemade alfredo, salsa, whipcream, ect ect. Chops fresh herbs but I find it mushes onions instead of chopping them. I don't mind that but some people may like chunky salsa or chunks of onions |

| I loved the magic bullet until it broke after the 3rd day. It made meat small enough for my 15 month old to eat. It chopped ice into what I describe as snow, however an Oreo burned out the motor....seemed to me if it was okay for ice an oreo should have been easy. |

| Excellent product...I would give it a 5 star, but I didn't like the juicer. Even so, for me it's still worth it. I use it for everything from scrambling eggs, to making frozen drinks....for so many things, I can't list here. I leave it right on my counter top and use it almost daily. One Warning...when chopping veggies, be careful, if you go too far, you will turn them into liquid. I've done it, It is a powerful little machine.
