So many blenders...decisions decisions...help de decided



Recommended Posts

So i spent my entire lunch break looking at blenders and am undecided. I am trying to decide between the MagicBullet, NutriBullet or the Hamilton Beach51101 personal blender. All of which have awesome reviews on Amazon. Which blender are you guys using. I want something that is going to last but I'm also not trying to spend $120+

I got the Ninja for about $100. It was top rated on Consumer Reports. Working really well for me.

I got the Ninja at costco. It has a lot of bells and whistles (works as a food processor, etc) -- I couldn't be happier with it. I think it was right around $120.

I use it every single day.

I did the magic bullet and quite honestly only really used it in the purée stage. It worked pretty well even with chicken and gravy. Nowadays only my son uses it to make his fruit smoothie concoctions.

49.99 at target...

I got the Nutribullet from Bed Bath and Beyond. It was $99.99 but I used my 20% off coupon, so it came to $80- something with tax. It is a great blender but can be foamy on top of some shakes, which I just spoon off before drinking.

If you want just a regular blender, I'd go to Goodwill or some other thrift store. You could get one for under $10. Or ask friends or relatives if they have one they don't want. Most people have them and don't use them. Then you can see if you really would use it. The if you use it all the time, I'd look at one with all the bells and whistles. Just my opinion, I'm old school that way!

I got the Party Bullet because it was on sale after Christmas for 60% off. Same thing as the magic bullet - just has more cocktail-shaped cups. Honestly, I'm glad I didn't spend that much. I used it quite a bit during the puree stage, but have not used it at all since - really only used it for 2 weeks. For my Protein Drinks, I much prefer the Blender bottles - they are cheaper, and easier to use and clean (I can also take them with me on the road).

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
