nutribullet worth the $$$

[Keithsmomma]

Been doing some research and figured best place to get honest answers would be here. I'm looking to make smoothies. I normally work during lunch and don't have time to eat. So my questions are what version do you have? Do you like/hate it & why? Would you recommend a different brand?

Thanks
Rachael

I lovvvvvve my nutribullet!!! Best purchase I ever made. It's so easy to use, and crazy easy to clean. I have the regular $80-$90 model, not sure off the top of my head what the model number is. It is fabulous for smoothies and shakes, and I even whip up homemade pancake batter in it. I don't think you can go wrong with a nutribullet.

My nutribullet was a great purchase! I have the one that is sort of grayish gold. I think it was around $100. Easy to use and made great shakes and smoothies. Also really liked that I could prep everything in advance and just stick the canister on when I was ready to go. Smoothies are also great for work-through-lunch if you have some source of protein in them.

All that being said, I upgraded to a Vitamix (insanely expensive but my second favorite thing in my kitchen) a few months after purchasing the nutribullet. Husband starting drinking green smoothies soon after I did and we wanted more capacity than the nutribullet could provide.

I have the upgraded nutribullet (I don't know which model, not the basic one it's the higher one. I have had it for about 10 months. DH and I use it almost daily. I was between this and a vitamix, I decided to give the nutribullet a try-I figured if I didnt like it I was only out $100. I really like how well it blends. I am able to throw almonds into my smoothie and the nutribullet can handle it. Frozen fruit is no big deal for it either. I really love the ease of clean up.

Thanks everyone. I decided to buy one. Went to target yesterday and they had the nurtribullet Rx on clearance for 50% off. So I bought it. Can't wait to make smoothies.
