Summary: All the bad reviews aren't from uneducated people
Comment: After purchasing the product and reading many reviews, it seems that perhaps the blades are just made differently. I followed the instructions to a tee, including ingredient order, using liquids, using small ice cubes, following their recipes, pulsing, etc etc. But it will NOT crush all the ice for smoothies - it leaves big chunks that it just kicks around in the cup. I have to blame this on the blade more than anything else. It seems very inconsistent.
Tried chopping some onions - used pulse and tap and everything else - ending up with half pureed onions and half unchopped onions after 5 minutes of tapping, pulsing, etc etc.
Biggest problem I have - doesn't perform as in the commercial. Definite trickery going on there. Smoothies aren't smooth, vegetables don't chop right even when following all of their pulses/taps, etc.
Great idea, poor execution.

Summary: Like everybody else (114 bad reviews)... IT BROKE !!
Comment: I bought my Magic Bullet on Oct. 3 '07, I'm still within the 1 year warranty but there is no way I can get to speak with Costumer Service, I sent an e-mail and its been a more than a week and no answer yet! too bad I didn't read the "bad reviews" before buying it, specially because the pieces are made of plastic! you don't realize this until it brakes!! I'm not even going to waste my time and money with them, I'll buy another similar even if it is more expensive.....

Summary: Waste of Money
Comment: I received this product as a wedding gift. I tried it out, and the blade broke the first time I tried it. It had a "one year warranty" so I called the company and they refused to accept it. So if I wanted a new piece to replace my also new piece that broke the first try, I would have to send them 8.95 plus shipping and handeling. After arguing on the phone for almost a half hour with what they consider customer service, they told me to call back tomorrow. Do not waste your money on this, it is cheap and broke the first time. The company is useless and will just try to sell you new broken products.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Seems adequate.
Comment: Seems fine. Appears to have superior build quality to the knock offs. The "gear"/"teeth" that drive the blade are a hard plastic, instead of rubber. That will probably not disintegrate like the knock off did.

Summary: More Trouble Than It's Worth
Comment: I was so excited about the Magic Bullet because it is small and seemed to do everything. I bought it particularly to make vegetable purees (ie baby food). I also loved the idea of making smoothies right in the cups; how fun! However, when I used it I was very disappointed (and ended up returning it). For pureeing vegetables I followed the manual exactly, adding extra water, using the shake method, using the tap method and the food came out very smooth, but it took about 20 minutes for one tall cup of veggies (we're talking squash here, not carrots or something more firm) and my arm was tired from all that shaking and tapping. It was also very messy and I ended up with squash all over the outside of the cup, the motor base and my kitchen. For smoothies, all went well except that there were 3 chunks of ice that never would be crushed, no matter how long I blended it. My overall thought on this product is that it is more trouble than it's worth and highly overrated by the manufacturer. I was so sad that it didn't work as expected because if it had I'm sure it would be my favorite kitchen appliance ever, but unfortunately, it just didn't prove itself worth all the money. If it was as easy and simple and quick as they said it was I would have kept it, but as it is, I am now in the market for a real food processor.

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.
