I have now made 5 or 6 smoothies with it, each using decreasing amounts of liquid. I'm surprised at how well it blends with very little liquid, making a very thick smoothy, and also how fast it blends. Apparently the motor is powerful and the cutting blades are configured such that circulation of materials through them is very efficient. I often try to blend so that a fair amt of fiber remains (in other words, I don't want my smoothies to be super liqufied), and that often only takes about 5-7 seconds.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I heard about the health benefits and convenience of smoothies so it was just a matter of which mini-blender I would need to buy. I took my time researching them online and watched the YouTube tutorials.
This NutriBullet came out on top and I an very happy with it thus far. It is very easy to use, low maintenance, and takes up very little space.
I heard a few horror stories from some reviewers that the lid leaked or the motor quit. I honestly suspect that some people do not know how to use it or take care of it.
The lid is NOT meant to be washed in super hot water nor should it ever be used to blend hot liquid. That will cause the gasket to leak, plain and simple.
Secondly, if it is overloaded with frozen contents and little to no water/liquid, the motor becomes stressed. This is common sense but some not everyone gets it.
With proper usage and simple maintenance, I hope to have my NutriBullet for at least a few years. This deserves 5 stars.

It is always leaking even though I measure exactly to the max fill line. It looks good and grinds everything up very well. When my blender broke, which I only used to make smoothies, I bought this instead. If I don’t turn it just right removing from base it leaks and is hard to clean.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this for my wife a couple months back because our older, less expensive, non nutribullet blender had died. The difference is night and day. You can put so much more in the cup and be guaranteed that it will be blended completely. The unit is probably the easiest one to clean too. I had seen many reviews before, about other types of blenders, but this one seemed to score high. This one is truly a great purchase! I have found that i will now have a smoothie every day because of how smooth it gets(I'm picky about that). My 3 kids are also now asking for some because we can actually blend pretty much anything we want in there in under a minute. Dont go for a ninja version, this outperforms it easily.
