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 :)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
