Anyone have the Magic Bullet?

[suzieqinga]

I was just wondering if any of you have the Magic Bullet blender thingy that is advertised on TV infomercials. I have seen them at Walmart and have thought about buying one for months. I'd love to hear any opinions on this product. Do any of you have one? If so, do you use it often? Thanks for any input.

MY MIL has 2 of them and she loves them...I am too cheap to buy one since I already have a blender so I can't say personally but she is always talking about all the things she has made in hers..

Yes, after watching my daughter use hers all the time (it never gets put away) for the past year, going camping with a crew who always have them out, I finally bought one on eBay, the 21 piece set with the spaghetti cooker (that went to my grand who loves gadgets) for $45 shipped and came last week. It came as advertised, brand new and I love it already! Interesting thing, the person I bought from has perfect feedback, but becamse unregistered, the day after I bought it, and I had already paid, so I was nervous I wounldn't be seeing it....and it came without a hitch. I've sent a couple others over to his website to ask if he would sell one to them! I know they are on sale on the site, but you needed to buy two to get the deal, and the shipping was high..so I went with eBay.

I have one, too. It was recommended by online friends from a fitness board I have been a member for years. I make smoothies, shakes, and slushies with mine. I don't use it for cooking like making recipes that come in their cookbook, but you can.

My older dd's easily make their own drinks, too. The only difficulty we have had is that it doesn't chop ice very well. Yet we like it because it's easy to use and easy to clean.

I bought mine at WalMart because I didn't want to have any hassles or deal with high shipping costs.

I love it!

My dh really wants this. Has for a few years. I see Target has it now too. Funny thing, I used to take orders over the phone for these.

My neighbor has one and loves it. She loves to make mudslides and other yummy things in it

For the smaller set (17 piece..it doesn't have the blender) I've found them to be $59.95 plus tax locally, which is why I went with eBay. I paid with Paypal, so even if the guy wasn't a great seller, I knew I would get my money back.

It's great to make your own baby food. I don't think we had to buy any jars of baby food for our daughter! Much healthier and really very easy.

I got mine at Macy's for $55 or so a year ago.. but I know Wal-Mart had some around Black Friday last year at a great price.

Just remember, there are two main deals..the 17 and 21 pieces. The 21 pieces come with a blender, which is great for making larger amounts.

I have one and I use it all the time. I don't even put it away because it is used so much--other than the toaster and coffee pot it is the only appliance I leave out. Mixing the kids smoothies, icee's, breakfast shakes, etc. in thier own cups is soooo easy. I love it for adult drinks a well. If mine breaks I will get another one.

I have one and I love it, my neighbors have one that they love also. It sounds silly but it is so great for scrambling eggs or beating them for french toast and stuff. Takes about 2 seconds and none of the slimy membranes are left in the eggs, totally smooth.

I got mine at Kohls, it was on sale, for about 54.99 I think, and I had a 15% off coupon, so I got it for around $46.
