Works well. Smaller than other personal blenders, but it’s still a good size for one beverage. Just make sure you put the ice or frozen fruit in last. Otherwise it has a hard time blending. Two of the blades are so close to the lid, it makes cleaning a little more difficult.

I got this for my son for Christmas, and he has used it every day a couple of times a day for several different things since he got it. He loves how easy it is to use, how easy it is to clean, and how versatile it is. I would definitely buy this again. It’s made very well also.

I’ve pretty much switched to having protein shakes in the morning along with the occasional shake as a meal replacement or whenever I get hungry and need to satisfy that hunger with something healthier than what I used to eat…at first I tried blender bottles. They were mostly, meh. I’ve determined a LOT of how efficient your bottle may be depends a great deal on the protein powder you plan to use. They are NOT created equal and some blend better than others. I try to shy away from plant-based meal replacement/protein shake powder for only one reason: I’ve tried more than 7 different kinds and I’ve never liked the taste of any of them. Some were better than others, but none made me want to finish the whole bottle and I ended up donating each to friends who were okay with the flavor or genuinely liked the taste. Not sure if this is true with all plant based shakes, but so far (for me anyway) it has been.
I prefer whey based shakes…but not even all of them are equal. This is a case where the phrase, “You get what you pay for” pretty much applies. Not 100% mind you, but far more often than not. I tried a chocolate peanut butter protein powder from Complete Nutrition once (I had a $50 gift card) and the bottle of powder cost the whole $50…which for my meager budget was quite expensive…but man did it blend and taste incredible. Best I’ve ever tried, in fact. No sugar…but you’d never know it from the taste. Unfortunately that first bottle was also my last because my finances simply cannot afford it. I discovered around this time that even the harder to blend whey protein shakes would blend much better with an actual blender rather than a shaker bottle. I’ve stuck with them ever since.
For quick protein shakes that do not require ice (more than a single cube) and no frozen ingredients, the Magic Bullet works great. If your goal is to get a powerful blender to mix frozen fruits and veggies to make a smoothie, you would be better suited to look elsewhere. The motor in the Magic Bullet simply isn’t strong enough to work on anything more than as I mentioned before, a single ice cube. I tried 2 cubes once, and it was apparent from the moment I turned it on that this was not going to work. I pretty much knew this going in having done my research ahead of time on the blender and I knew the limitations, so this didn’t surprise me. If you truly wish to make a smoothie using frozen anything, I don’t know that a personal blender exists that can conclusively show they are effective at blending well. The motors simply aren’t powerful enough to expect any kind of efficiency…not without running the risk of burning out the motor and/or getting significant chunks of ice or fruit left over regardless of how long you try to blend it. You may as well invest in a larger model that has the power to blend whatever you wish. There may be a personal model I don’t know of which can do this, but I’d imagine if it can, it will come with a rather significant price tag as well. Just keep that in mind.
For me, I love my Magic Bullet. I know what it can and cannot do, and that’s okay. ESPECIALLY for the price. It comes with the most cups and attachments I’ve ever seen, again, especially for how little it cost. I would gladly trade 2 of the cups for one larger cup however. Maybe twice the size? Again, this is a very minor complaint considering what it comes with, but it’s nice to know I can order a cup which is bigger that fits the Magic Bullet specifically…which I’m sure I’ll do at some point. For making my protein shakes with almond milk, an ice cube and maybe a small chunk of banana and a spoonful of peanut butter, it works pretty much flawlessly.

The family loves this and it works perfectly for single smoothies. Has a lot of powder and mixes and blends everything perfectly. We now have two of them and the first one has lasted for over 3 years. Just bought another for Christmas gift. I’ve personally used it for cooking and making puree, but girls are making smoothies with it every day. Cleaning the unit is pretty simple and easy to take apart and put back together. Really seems like a quality product.

This item was in the warehouse and on clearance so to speak! So it was a great deal! Works great easy to use and easy for the quick morning shakes, afternoon smoothies or just a quick shake for the kids! It even works to blend up small pieces of food, ginger, garlic etc! This is a plug in type of “blender” so will need an outlet to use but over all great product and love the easy to make smoothies and shakes!! Its a must try!!

I owned one before, and I loved it, this new one started out great, now after a month, I am sad to say that my unit no longer works. The deal was too good to be true, I was right.

This new size is amazing! When I opened the box my first thiught was that this size wouldn’t blend as well as the larger magic bullet and I was wrong. This is a powerhouse blender just like th larger one and I can put in the same amount of nutritious ingredients I put in my larger smoothie , just needed fewer ice cubes to make the same great smoothie. Also, I love the way it fits in my hand and rinses off so easily.

This was a gift, however, I have had 2 in the past and still have one of them and know that it is a good blender, cutter etc. I really like it as it is dependable. Like any blender, don’t keep it on full blast over 30 seconds..15 seconds is good and you can use it in stages. In other words, don’t over use the motor.
