5 out of 5 stars I love this thing!   May 21, 2008
Julie L. Day (CA United States)
I picked this mini blender up at Wally World a few weeks ago and have been pleasantly surprised by its power and utility. Haven't had any problems blending frozen fruit or ice cubes. I suspect that some users aren't putting enough liquid in, hence the negative reviews, but if you do it right, this thing will work like a charm.

I started out throwing huge chunks of hard-as-rock frozen fruit in this thing, but in hopes of making it last longer, I have a better solution: I make up small tupperware containers of mixed frozen/fresh fruits and defrost them in the fridge (or on the counter if I'm in a hurry) for and hour or two before mixing. Should help prolong the life of your beloved blender, and make it more convenient for those of us who buy fruit in bulk!

All in all, an excellent, cheap kitchen gadget that I highly recommend!



1 out of 5 stars Burned out the motor after 6 months   May 18, 2008
NYC gal (NYC)
Another shameless throw-away item that is built not to last. In this age of environmental melt-down, manufacturers have a responsibility to step up and produce lasting goods, not ones like this cheap blender that breaks after 30 uses and ends up in the landfill forever!

My mother had an Oster that lasted 40 years or more - now THAT is manufacturing integrity. (I do not work for Oster.) But I do believe the earth can no longer ingest all the throw-away garbage we are buying and tossing out because this cheap junk is built to break, not to last.

Shame on them for making this junk and shame on us for buying it.

My 92-year-old mother loves making smoothies with this blender! Not too difficult for her to operate.


3 out of 5 stars Price is great... but   April 26, 2008
Dain Ehring (usa)
I had a bullet but decided on this because of reviews and price. The good of it is its size, simplicity, and price. The bad of it is the low power of the motor (although I was able to blend ice so it does what i need) and while the attached blade makes the design simpler it is easy for food to get under the blade and then not blended. for example you learn to put the milk in first *then* the protein and fruit.


5 out of 5 stars Best Money spent   April 25, 2008
Nicholas J. Preston (Ohio U, Ohio)
I never write reviews for a product, but this one made me. I have had this product for about 3 months and use it twice a day. It makes the best protein shakes you have ever had. If you are looking for a great shake maker, look no further. Its small but still can make a double shake no problem. Add some chocolate protein and a frozen bananna and its better than frosty from wendys, I kid you not. Awesome product dont hesitate to purchase.
