Hello again!!

I have been wanting to buy the Magic Bullet "as seen on TV" for a while now, and Just dont know whether I should spend the 70 dollars on it or not?? They carry it at Kohls and other stores now. It looks great, easy and small, which are all requirments of mine. I would really only use it for making Baby Food and Salsa. I have read mixed reviews online, some say it was great, others say the blades and other materials are cheap and they break. Does anyone have one that could give me some feed back? I will probibly only use it once or twice a week, maybe less. Also, does anyone have another small food processor they can recomend? I breifly glanced that the Food Network 3 cup processor too.

Thanks so much!
A.

What can I do next?

I have the magic bullet for 8 years never had a problem with the blades. I highly recommend it for baby food use. I use it for all 4 of my kids for baby food. Theres alot more you are going to make with that than what you said once you get it you will be making more. I make margarittas in less than 5 mins You can make the kids home made slurpees in less than 5 min you can make smoothies. I have made guakomolie and other dipps. You will be very inpressed and want to make more. I am very happy with mine. I recommend it or buy for showers if I can. The cheapest is bedbath and beyond its originally 49.99 but if you have a 20 percent off from the mail which there it doesn't matter if its out of date they still except them. You can get 20 percent off than. BUy one!!!

I have had mine for over 3 years now and it still works great! My only gripe is that it will overheat and won't turn on sometimes, but only when used for extended periods of time all at once. I too used mine to make baby food and had no problems. It is great for smoothies as well, although it doesn't seem to chop up the ice as well as a heavy duty blender, but that is to be expected.

HOpe this helps!

I have seen the Magic Bullet food processor at CVS actually and I don't think it is $70 there! I believe it is much less! I received it last year as a birthday present and it is wonderful! It is very easy to use to make baby foods!

We love our Magic Bullet. I would go to Costco or to Kohls with a 30% off coupon when they have it for sale. I think I got mine for about $30 dollars.
Good Luck.

I have a Magic Bullet and I like it just fine. My stepson (11) uses it to make smoothies and he loves it. There are times when the ingredients won't mix together without some coaxing...sometimes they get stuck in the top, depending on what you are making. But for baby food or salsa, you should be okay. It is small, but remember all the attachments that come with it (4 cups, 4 lids, 4 rings, 2 blades), so you'll need someplace to store them when not in use.

My husband LOVES his "bullet" he makes smoothies, crushes up flax seed and other thing with it. It is noisy but small and convenient. I like that it can go in the dishwasher (top rack). He bought it a long time ago from a TV ad when it was buy one get one free - It has lasted a long time.
I don't use it much but he swears by it.

I bought the Magic Bullet off of Craigslist for $40 and it has been worth it. I really only use it for grinding beans and rice/oats. For that it works like a charm. I've occasionally tried to puree some things and ended up transporting stuff to my super deluxe Vita Mix blender because that is like one hundred times better. The advantage to the magic bullet is that it is smaller and easy to clean. I would not pay full price for the magic bullet. Costco has it for $50 and I always recommend checking craigslist. Or you may want to look into a food processor because i've heard those are great--i don't own one. Not sure I've been any help at all.
