I've finally got round to ordering one, mainly so that I can get rid of the juicers I've bought and hardly used. Has anyone else got one [I know someone said they were planning to]? I don't tend to eat my 'five a day' so I'm hoping it will lead to a more healthier lifestyle.

Flickety I agree! I have just watched the advert video. I cannot see that it is any different from a normal reasonably powerful blender or food processor.
The pseudo science about the mixing action and the slicing blades seem no different from my small Moulinex goblet blender.
With a machine with a less powerful motor if you just chop teh veg up a bit bfore you start the motor would take less strain, in a smaller

The Nutribullet motor is 600 watts my Moulinex is 400 with a one litre goblet. They seem to do a 900watt professional model.

I doubt if this expensive machine would be any better than one of those.

I suspect it all depends on the power of the motor in the machine.

Oops! I think I will need a more powerful one to chop up the hard boiled egg I have been boiling to death while looking at GN.

What is it about nurses sense of humour that generates these things?

(My DD had that sent to her on FB.)

The Nutribullet has more blades and gives you a liquid that is not grainy when you put whole fruits with seeds and skins in it nellie (a few seeds like apple pips don't go in). It mills seeds and nuts more finely than a blender. I have a fabulous KitchenAid blender that gives me lovely soups when I have cooked the ingedients, but the Nutribullet blasts raw ingredients. I can use both - enjoying having the extra veg, fruit, nuts and seeds at the moment.

Oh yes! (re sunseeker's post. I suppose it could be like - grapes are good. Grape juice is not. Something to do with the Glycaemic index.

I do like my nutribullet and for somebody like myself who hates spinach it is ideal. Because I have Macular Degeneration I am supposed to eat a lot of kale so this machine helps with that.

If you mix eg kale, grapes, bananas and a satsuma, the end result looks like disgusting bright green pond life but tastes delicious. It is a case of experimenting with what you have. I am pleased to have a downstairs loo!

I was amazed at how easy it is to clean- I abandoned my fancy juicer because it took me 2 minutes to produce a lovely drink and 20 minutes to clean the apparatus.

How much are Nutribullet machines and is there only one model?

Gimmiky!! What's wrong with a liquidiser or food processor. Originally they cost nearly £100 and are now half price.

I got a Salter Nutripro. More powerful and cheaper than the Bullet ones.
