I bought this unit for a green smoothie diet I was going to use, and it worked perfectly. Then only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, is that the blade unit must be tightened quite hard to prevent leakage. My wife won't be able to use it on her own, due to arthritis in her hands.
Must have received a lemon will not allow the tabs to turn in either direction after inserting in the 3 slots. Much too costly and time consuming to package unit and wait for refund or another poor unit as a replacement. Just returned and decided on another product from different retailer.
I would have given it 5 stars but I find one thing disturbing. This is my 3rd unit. I had the regular one and this is my 2ND Pro series one. I found with my first 2 units, that if I went 20-30 seconds, it would emit a "burnt" smell from the motor. I had my 1st 900 for a year and a half before the motor blew out. With my latest 900, I find the "burnt" smell as soon as I turn it on. Could be be nothing but I feel paranoid the motor is going to burn out. Maybe I got a bad unit, maybe I'm reading too much in to it. All in all this machine was a game changer for me. I don't leave the house in the morning without my shake. If you're a serious coffee drinker and want a healthy start to your day, try my shake recipe: espresso, chocolate protein powder, oats, peanut butter, banana, kale,spinach, beets and fill with whatever you do for "milk".... Love my 900, just please don't die on me! LOL
We were given this bullet as a gift and MAN HAS IT IMPROVED from the original smaller bullet.... lots of great suggestions in the book and works like crazy... so wonderful
I bought the nutribullet with high expectations of easy fast blending. I use it to make fruit smoothies and the blender always gets stuck and I have to continuously remove the shaker and shake it up and place it back on the blender to blend. I have to do this 3-6 time ms every time I make a shake. I use frozen fruit and it does not work well at all. One of the notches on my blender cup broke off when putting it in the blender and now I can't use that cup to blend. Worst blender ever, for a product that is supposed to be powerful fast and convenient.
I am a new user - used it about 10 times so far over 1 month. It works as expected. The only issue I have is getting the lid off. It seems as though a vacuum is created during operation, making it harder to twist off the lid. The lid needs to be on tight enough to reduce leak risk. The diameter of the lid is large for my hand so that probably contributes to the difficulty I have twisting it off.
I love the concept of this machine. It's easy to clean and worked great. However, I have had two of these machines the last one I bought this past January. Both time the lid got stuck and I'm unable to get it off. Please do something to fix this problem. Useless now.....
