Product Description
Magic bullet high speed blender mixer system - power base with stainless steel cross blade and flat blade/tall and short bullet cups/shaker/steamer tops/stay-fresh lids/four mugs with colored lip rings/100-page magic bullet, 10 second recipe book. The magic bullet replaces a food processor, blender, and coffee grinder. Yet it occupies only the space of a coffee mug. It stays handy on your countertop for instant meals and snacks. There are no buttons to push. Just load the ingredients into the short cup, the tall cup or one of the four mugs. Twist on the cross or flat blade, place the bullet on the power base, and press down - in seconds, you'll have chopped onions, minced garlic, grated cheese, spaghetti sauce, salsa, soup, chicken salad, smoothies, shakes and more. To heat or chill, simply place the magic bullet cup or mug in the microwave, refrigerator or freezer.

I used my mother's Magic Bullet one time and had to have my own. I use it to grind coffee, make iced cocktails and smoothies, and process vegetables for soups. This is one great product!

I recently purchased the Magic Bullet a few weeks ago from my local Meijer's for $50 to replace a blender that my father had lost the parts to. For the most part this is one of the few items you can buy from an infomercial that manages to do exactly what it's advertised to do. So far I've used this machine to make omelets, various drinks/smoothies, grate cheese and grind spices.
Of course judging from the reviews about how easy this thing is to break and then looking at the people that have had it for several years it does seem to be a case of user error in my opinion. The same people who complain about it breaking easy also tend to complain about how it turns everything to mush. I can see why folks would think this. However it's mainly a case of getting a feel for the machine and actually reading the manual. The first few times I used the Magic Bullet I managed to overblend/overfill the cups. Now however I'm doing everything it's advertised to do just fine. Overall it's a great machine that will not let you down.....provided you take the time to RTFM ^_~ lol

After reading some reviews on here I decided to make my own. Something I think people need to understand is that the Magic Bullet (MB) blender was made for very specific use. I haven't seen the info-mercials but I can say that for me, this is the perfect blender. Here's why:
1. Size - The MBs compact size means it's easy to store. This is crucial for people who don't have a lot of cabinet/counter space. My counter already has a coffee pot, espresso machine,toaster, knife rack, etc. I need a blender that doesn't take up very much space, so for me, it's the perfect size because I leave it sitting out. The extra accessories can be left in the box it came in and put in the attic or basement for storage if you won't be using them on a regular basis. I only use the 20oz cup.
2. Ease of Use - We live in an age where people want simplicity. By design, the MB already has your serving size pre-determined. This is great for people who are conscientious about their portion sizes. In addition, it makes clean up easier. There's no need to pour your drink from a pitcher to a cup, so not only are you using less dishes, but the design of it is just like cleaning a glass. Also, there is only one speed of the MB. This may seem like a detractor, but the switch between pulsing and pureeing works well and should handle any job a normal blender does. I found this surprising omission to be one of its best attributes, hence it's specific use.
3. Functionality - I've only used the MB to make smoothies/shakes and it works great. Some reviewers have complained that the MB underperforms in this area but I think it is a case of operator error. They must be using it wrong because after I got the hang of it, I found that I have a perfect smoothies/shakes. What I would recommend is to blend your ice (approx. 5 pcs) and milk/water (approx. 1 cup) first. Break the ice up by pulsing the MB. Once this is done, add in whatever mix/powder you want in it. Mix it in by pureeing it. Lastly I add half a banana by pureeing it as well. The result is a perfect drink without any ice chunks. I find for smoothies it works better than a blender.
All in all I highly recommend the MB if the details I listed earlier are what you're looking for. If you want more than single servings at one time I would look elsewhere. Otherwise, the MB should be able to handle any job a traditional blender does.
