Yes, twice the price and the containers are twice the size of a magic bullet with 700 HP, so it's like a mini vitamix...it pulverizes fruits and vegetables. I wanted it so I can just make one glass at a time. I have the big Healthmaster machine which is comparable to the Vitamix, but the big ole pitche is a pain and it's so much better to make fresh vegetable juice and only what you can drink at one time. And don't tell my wife, but I just wanted a new toy to play with.

Well be sure to give us a review. I like that the magic bullet keeps my serving size smaller. I could get in trouble making smoothy twice as big. Lol. But it sounds interesting for nut butters and making soups etc.

I didn't want to be the only one who didn't know what it was.LOL
I checked it out. I have a Betty crocker that looks like a magic bullet, and it is my little machine. I really like that little machine, I've had it for 6 years. It works like a champ. My sister has the healthmaster, I have the vita-mix, and my other sister has the Blendtec. But I always say , so many kitchen gadgets so little time. You go Nigel. It's really cute. |

Thanks rosethorns and Brendajm, I will give you a review as soon as I get it and try it out.
I'm ditching my Healthmaster cause the dang pitcher leaks and it's $80 for a pitcher...ridiculous!! So I'm going for the Ninja Kitchen system 1100 for about $75 more than the cost of the pitcher. Maybe I'll get lucky and the ninja pitcher will fit the Healthmaster...I'm just angry cause it crapped out after only a year and a half. The motor has a 100 year warranty and it works great, but the pitcher isn't under a warranty. Grrhhh!! I have a blender that I've had for 20 years, just a cheap ole one from walley world and it still works like a charm and that pitcher still doesn't leak. Go figure. Maybe I should call up Montel Williams and complain. |

I saw the infommercial last night late finally. The container IS big! I'd definitely contact Healthmaster customer service about that. I've heard lots of complaints about the leaking.

I got mine yesterday. I thought the cup would be bigger, so I reckon I don't know how big 24oz is. LOL
I made a blueberry smoothie today with almond milk and included ice. The best thing about it, is that it's so dang quiet. I love the quiet. It didn't make any noises crushing the ice, so quiet in fact, I thought it didn't work, but when I took off the lid, all the ice was gone and I had a nice, thick, ice cold smoothie. I tried to take a picture, but my camera crapped out. So maybe tomorrow if the battery charges up right this time. It came with a little booklet and a bigger booklet and a hardback book with lots of info about your health and what smoothies for what ailments, etc. It even has a 6 week program, but I doubt I will pay much attention to that part. I do like all the recipes though and plan on trying out lots of them. |

Wow. Quiet would be a big PLUS. I swear I need ear plugs when using the magic bullet. Did it come with extra cups? Blender?

Review of the Nutribullet:
It leaks already. Don't buy one. It's a waste of good money...it is convienient, but how long will it be until it's unusable? And where it leaked, it got inside the part that covers the motor, so who knows if it will get into the motor or not. I coulnd't get it all out and it doesn't come apart there. GRRRHHH!!! For a good review, I got a Ninja 1200 and it's a wonderful toy, 2 sizes of containers and 5 attacments and quiet too. So far I've only made slushies, but I'll try it out on veggies tomorrow when I make some V8+. It came with a dough hook so I can make LC pizza dough easier now. And if it has any problems, I got it at walmart, so easy return if necessary. Last edited by Nigel; 08-10-2012 at 03:39 PM.. |

The Vitamix is better than thr Ninja. Since I got the 1200 model, I expected it to do better pulverizing of veggies. It does make great slushies thoiugh and its still a good blender, but the Healthmaster was an 1100 hp and it reaaly pulverized the veggies, but the pitcher wore out.
