This is our 3rd bullet and we do like them. My husband and i both make our moring shakes with it and i also make my salad dressings in it. my newest came with flip tops. i used them with my salad dressings and they work great for pouring. the problem is i recently removed a top from an empty container that was refrigerated with dressing in it and when i washed it a black tar stuff came off. so i guess there needs to be a warning about this to others. not sure how much of the tar stuff we ate :( it is not all plastic it has some rubber on it that apparently disinagrates.
All I wanted to was to make a smoothie. But instead of a quick, easy procedure, I find myself spending 10 minutes to make one. Because the not-so-magic bullet won't blend all of the ingredients together, I add them one at a time. Of course, I have to open the chamber to add another ingredient, which means the liquid drips all over the inside and outside. But, if I do this, maybe I'll get a finished product.
This is the second time that I buy a Magic Bullet BUT I would like to suggest, to improve the blades construction because they are weak and brake very EASILY.
When I first bought it I liked it very much. It was easy to use, easy to clean. After a few weeks of use I had to store it for a year. After unpacking it worked for about two times and then quit.
I needed a new blade and since the price of a new one was a better choice I opted for a new one. This one leaks easily. I don't load up - I follow instructions. When this one goes I will try another brand. AND it is only used 1-3x a month.
