Re: Nutribullet and your experience please!

I have a Nutribullet and have been using it a lot.

I love it. I gave away my old Magic Bullet because this replaced it so well.

Good points: it does a lot more than make smoothies. I use it for small amounts of sauces, making bread crumbs, and I use it regularly for grinding my coffee. They now give you two extractor blades, so you can change off.

Bad points: no longer comes with a milling blade. I bought one, because that is what I use for crumbs and coffee.

The replacement blades and a single blade (for chopping) are not expensive. You can get more mugs, too.

I use mine every day and I like it a lot.

Re: Nutribullet and your experience please!

My friend travels a lot and he uses it basically for fresh veggie drinks. He tries to get his leafy greens into his diet this way when he's gone. He gave up putting fruit and ice in it since it didn't work well for that. For a fruit smoothie, its better to use a Vitamix as it is capable of taking whole ice.

I have the 600 Nutribullet and I love it! I use all frozen no sugar added fruits, banana and Fresh Kale, I add water to keep the calories and sugar down. Delicious!

Don't worry, be Happy!

Re: Nutribullet and your experience please!

I used mine for the first time yesterday. Just soaked frozen strawberries in warm water for about a minute. Guess I don't have to do that. I did use ice and it didn't crush all of it. I thought when they were selling it, he added ice as the last ingredient. The smoothie was good. I used coconut water and a packet of stevia as well as kale and spinach. Who would of thought that would taste good.

Re: Nutribullet and your experience please!

Nutribullet 900 demo on Sunday 3/1/2015 (HSN), they used semi-frozen fruit and made "sorbets". It seemed to have a nice consistency. They used frozen pineapple and mango and definitely stated that it was partially thawed, not just out of the freezer.

Looking forward to using it. It had 2,221 reviews and 1,570 were 5 stars.

I also read about the gasket, so hope mine won't be one of those! LOL

Re: Nutribullet and your experience please!

Do any of these machines, besides the Vitamix, get rid of fruit seeds such as raspberrries, blackberries, etc.?

Re: Nutribullet and your experience please!

I own two of them and just LOVE when I use them. Great for home and work.

I originally purchased my Breville for juicing but, I found that this little guy actually gave me better results and a lot less waste. As other users have stated frozen fruit works perfectly, I have found that when using frozen items I did not need to use ice.
