I Bought A Magic Bullet At Costco



Recommended Posts

I bought a Magic Bullet yesterday at Costo ($47.92 tax inc.). Does anyone here have one? Is it useful? Easy to clean? I thought it was cool because you can blend stuff and even microwave in the same container. It will crush ice and fruits and veggies for smoothies and Protein Drinks. It came with several different size Mugs, and smaller containers for Condiments, etc. I just would like some reviews before I use it. Thanks

I bought mine at costco a few months ago when they had it on sale. it was a great deal and came with more accessories than other stores. I love mine but have only used it twice. Once to make chicken salad and once to pulverize some ice to add to a mixed drink.

I'm sure I will use it alot more after surgery.

I was gonna buy one pre-op but just didn't have the money at the time - I made it through my puree phase without it. I'm sure it would be useful, but I don't regret that I didn't have one, either.

I bought one too on sale at costco and left it in my car for 3weeks. When I finally used it I couldn't figure out how to store all the pieces. I used it once. I returned it. I have an immersion blender with an attachment that is like a small food processor and a large container (like a chinese Soup take-out container). I works great in blending my shake in a large mug. It cleans up under running Water. I'm trying to keep it simple since this phase and pureeing food is not forever.

Bought mine at Bed Bath & Beyond for $49 less 20% which made it about $40. Love it! The whole thing comes apart so gunk can't build up in the base. And it all goes in the dishwasher. Plus it even comes with the straws!

I can understand that, there are alot of attachments. I keep the base on my counter and all the attachments in the box. I have a small space beside of my fridge where the box fit perfectly.

I bought what is essentially the Cuisinart version of it and I love it. I use it a lot when cooking and for making smoothies for my kids. I used it a lot on liquids and purées, but it definitely wasn't necessary, but I was glad to have it :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
