I appreciate not only the item itself and the 2 take along cups that serve double duty for mixing in and drinking from but also the very helpful books that came in the pkg as well that describe the combinations of vegis/fruits or other additions that you can try and the benefits of each. Surely worth investing in.
This item works well and serves my medical needs (have to eat blended food). I just hope it lasts longer than my previous Pro, whose motor seized after two years of use.
Have had it about a month and it handles whatever I throw at it. I worry that I will damage it by using it for more than 1 minute, as cautioned in instructions. Wish it had power and also didn't have to be used with such cautions.
The Nutribullet Pro is an upgrade for me. I've been using the Magic Bullet for the past 7 years, which was given to me as a hand-me-down, so it was 10 years old and still running. I just wanted a bigger container, and a sharper extractor blade, which the Pro has. I really like it.
My older, less powerful Nutribullet was much better than the PRO version. Right out of the box, the rubber washer on the blade attachment came out, there's no putting it back. Annoying but so what. Everytime I use it, I smell burning rubber. I thought that would go away, but it hasn't and now I don't think it ever will. Lastly I have to tighten the container with all my strength before I use it, b/c the thing is so powerful that when you turn it on, the action actually loosens the container from the blade, and the thing leaks. I've learned how to deal with it, and it's a first world problem for sure but you asked for a review, here it is. It makes an awesome smoothie and that's what I want, but when this thing dies in a year or two I will look at other options. I think it's just too powerful, and it's not necessary. You put a jet engine in a passenger car that doesn't need it. I would buy the original Nutribullet over this one if I had to do it again.
