Customer Reviews

All the bad reviews aren't from uneducated people
After purchasing the product and reading many reviews, it seems that perhaps the blades are just made differently. I followed the instructions to a tee, including ingredient order, using liquids, using small ice cubes, following their recipes, pulsing, etc etc. But it will NOT crush all the ice for smoothies - it leaves big chunks that it just kicks around in the cup. I have to blame this on the blade more than anything else. It seems very inconsistent.

Tried chopping some onions - used pulse and tap and everything else - ending up with half pureed onions and half unchopped onions after 5 minutes of tapping, pulsing, etc etc.

Biggest problem I have - doesn't perform as in the commercial. Definite trickery going on there. Smoothies aren't smooth, vegetables don't chop right even when following all of their pulses/taps, etc.

Great idea, poor execution.

Like everybody else (114 bad reviews)... IT BROKE !!
I bought my Magic Bullet on Oct. 3 '07, I'm still within the 1 year warranty but there is no way I can get to speak with Costumer Service, I sent an e-mail and its been a more than a week and no answer yet! too bad I didn't read the "bad reviews" before buying it, specially because the pieces are made of plastic! you don't realize this until it brakes!! I'm not even going to waste my time and money with them, I'll buy another similar even if it is more expensive.....

Waste of Money
I received this product as a wedding gift. I tried it out, and the blade broke the first time I tried it. It had a "one year warranty" so I called the company and they refused to accept it. So if I wanted a new piece to replace my also new piece that broke the first try, I would have to send them 8.95 plus shipping and handeling. After arguing on the phone for almost a half hour with what they consider customer service, they told me to call back tomorrow. Do not waste your money on this, it is cheap and broke the first time. The company is useless and will just try to sell you new broken products.
