I had the Nutribullet until the motor burned out, but at least it worked well for the 3 years I had it. The Magic Bullet failed on its first try. Couldn't blend frozen fruit. The instructions say not to run the motor more than 1 minute at a time, but it would take more than that to do a simple job. Should be taken off the market or at least instructions should say not to use frozen anything.
I've had 3 magic bullets and I use them all the time but thing that keeps on breaking is on the blender itself where the 3 little tabs from the cup lock in to start the blender. When one or two of those break it makes it very difficult to use . The cup tabs break as well but I have many cups to replace but only one blender so I have to buy a whole new set each time.
I was really excited to get the Magic bullet because I was tired of having to get my food processor out of the cabinet and having it take up so much room in my very small kitchen. Well, unfortunately it does not work as well. The blades aren't very sharp or maybe just too small to chopp even small amounts of garlic. When I try to blend a dressing, for example, pieces of onion or shallots don't breakdown. Its frustrating. I am a chef and love efficient equiptment that can make my job easier, and unfortunately I would only use the MB for blending liquids.
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.
