I previously owned a Nutribullet and loved it. I tried to replace one of the extractor blade pieces when it finally wore out. The replacement was either way too expensive or did not fit the cups I had and had to be sent back. So I decide to buy a whole new unit from these guys. this one is basically just a blender. It no longer makes my drinks in 10 seconds.I use the same ingredients as before but the spinach or other greens take forever to blend in. I have to stop, stir, re-start, re-stir. I wanted anoth extractor, not another blender. Not worth the money
I bought this a month or so ago and am using it for weight loss. I have not lost much as it has been the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, but neither have I gained. I fill it 1/3 to 1/2 full of frozen kale (buy it fresh and freeze it in it's own bag. Then I add frozen blueberries or strawberries, I/2 serving of chocolate or vanilla whey protein powder and almond milk as desired. I don't usually fill it clear up to the fill line. In about 40 seconds it makes a great smoothie. If I use fresh fruit, I add some ice. Somedays I also add a rounded tablespoon of no sugar added Plain Greek Yogurt or even 1/2 of an avocado. You can't even taste the greens. The secret to cleaning the bullet is to put about 2" of water in the dirty blender, add a drop of soap and blend for maybe 3-4 seconds. Rinse and drain. It's ready for the nest day.
I bought this after watching an infomercial. I'd seen a demo in a store, so when I saw it on TV I decided to act. It's amazing how you can combine ingredients, some of which you don't really like, and make a delicious, healthy smoothie.
I have been using this for about a month now, and it does a GREAT job. There are two minor reasons why I did not give it four stars: 1) The " Fill To" line on the larger container is small and rather indistinct. I wish it was more bold. 2) For what they are, the accessories are very expensive. Otherwise I would have ordered a few things by now.
