I bought this because I had Bariatric surgery. I have only used it a couple of times to make some shakes, but so far I have really liked it. It chopped up the ice cubes so fine it was almost like they were part of the shake as opposed to other blenders I have used there were large and small chunks of ice in the shake. I bought the kit and love all the accessories that came with it. I like the lip/handle I can screw onto the cup that makes it into an actual cup instead of feeling like you are drinking from the blender.
Bullet blender is very durable, powerful, & perfect in size. I do wish, the blenders were improved so it wouldn’t be so loud like most blenders. That would be the silver bullet if the compay could accomplish that !
Nothing worse than getting your smoothie all together in the blender and then not being able to get it to turn on. Sometimes pounding on it gets it to start but after 50 pounds my palm is sore and I still can’t get it going. Using a switch is far better in my opinion.
Within 2 weeks of purchasing the inner seal on the base somehow came off while I was blending and got wrapped around the blades, got cut in half and made my kitchen smell of smoke and ruined the smoothie. I had a 600 for 8 or so years with no issues so pretty saddened that the 900 made it less than 10 uses before this occurred. I hadn't even pulled up the seal to clean under it yet, so not sure why it wasn't adhered properly.
