I'd been looking at the NutriBullet for a few months for the healthier nutrition benefit. And being a beginner at this, it's a much better price than other blenders that do the same thing. A purchased in the summer, and have mostly used fruit. For the most part it does as advertised -- whips up into a tasty drink. It has been through trial and error that I've found if there's too much liquid in the fruit and you fill with water to the designated level, it will leak, making a mess in the unit. Another problem was after using it only a few times, I found I couldn't press down hard enough to get it to turn on. The slot areas on the base where you press down should be made of something stronger than plastic. I fear eventually something is going to break. I did come up with a solution: Dabbed a bit of liquid wrench, a spray especially made for plastic, on those areas of the base. I was then able to get it moving freely again. Overall I'm happy with this purchase. I've been enjoying many healthy drinks. The fact that it can leak is the reason for my 4 out of 5 rating.
My daughter is a soccer player and she loves the ease of the nutibullet and the easy clean up. Would like a little bigger container than the one offered.
Just knowing I'm getting much more nutrition on a daily basis makes me feel better. The bullet also makes me confident I am getting and maintaining good health every day. Glad I have it!!
I purchased the Nutribullet about one month ago, It is a money saver. All the fruit is made into a smoothie. The grandkids love it. I even make milk shakes in it. I am still learning to mix greens with the fruit. Well worth the money.
My views with this machine. I wish the containers were glass instead of plastic. The plastic becomes cloudy and discolored. I also find that it is sometimes difficult to thread the lid on for a tight fit which causes it to leak into the machine. In all fairness this could be just a defect in my lids and containers. The motor is strong enough and does blend smoothly. All in all it does the job.
