magic bullet Portable Blender MBPB50100 Silver

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I absolutely love this portable blender! It’s so convenient and easy to use. The size is perfect for taking on the go, and it blends smoothies and drinks quickly. It’s easy to clean, works great, and has become one of my favorite kitchen gadgets.

This was a wonderful item. It works better than I imagined and the noise level wasn’t loud. It blended my frozen strawberries like it was blended in a big normal size blender. I was very surprised for sure. It keeps a charge for a long time. Just remember to line up the marking on the bottle to the marking on the blender base for the machine to turn on. I didn’t realize this at first because I didn’t read the directions. This was a great value and easy to clean as it comes apart with out any problems. I always make sure to air dry it so there’s no leftover odd smell. I’m really picky with smells and this is something I’m obsessed with. So just remember to do that too. I have nothing negative to say. Enjoy your smoothies!!

I was planning for a trip to asia, and I wanted to be able to make protein smoothies while traveling... to allow for decent mini-meals if and when I ever needed them. Traveling can be challenging sometimes with food, and having a travel sized blender to make protein smoothies is one of my precautions I take... it gives me a bit more control over my diet. Anyways, this one looked great, ordered it, when it arrived it was compact yet clearly allows for a decent sized smoothie. It was weigth-y enough so it seemed solid... I felt confident it was the right choice. Flash forward 2 week traveling (about about 10 uses only). The blender quit working. Not only did it quit working but... it keeps teasing me. The light will flash blue ('working').... I'll load it up, press the button again, surprise, red light will pop back on ('not working'). Basically I'll test it before loading it, it will seem to work fine, then load it: 'something wrong'... nothing more annoying than to chop up fruit, add all the ingredients, just to find out, it was tricking you and its not planning on working after all. If you look at the design, you will notice the power charger port is places exactly where water might get in... the instructions say do wash with water... I did my best not to get water in the badly placed power port... but Im assuming a few drops got in? or some other malfunction. My opinion is, the design with the power port exactly where water might get in, is such a bad design that, no one should buy this product. This is inherently a product meant to be use, full time, with liquids... and only charge once and a while (while not in use)... they could have put the charging port anywhere... and also, added a rubber cap, or some other barrier ... but no, the designer and quality control people thought adding a water sensitive, rarely used detail (charging will only be happening once and a while) needs to be basically exactly where all the liquid will be also. I paid about $42 including shipping. A nice price.. but the wasted time, mental energy, and frustration is not worth it... especially when you see the silly design flaw which is just asking for problems. If you read through the reviews you will find peppered throughout, the common complaint that it just 'quit working'. Im pretty sure, most had the same issue I did which is, despite being careful with cleaning the blender... a drop of water or 2 snuck in to the charging port (which again, is exactly... exactly in the wrong spot to keep it working.. or right spot for dripping water slip in)... IF you buy this blender, it will almost definitely just quit working some random day... and you will have to start checking if its really broken,,, messing around with it... the light will turn blue (working), but then will turn red (broken)... etc etc... then you will have to throw it out, and start over again. Find another brand which doesnt have this really stupid unnecessary design flaw... and ... it will probably just keep working.. as most products usually do. Because Im traveling now, my options are much worse, because where Im at, if I can find a mini-blender, it will probably be low quality... ie I will just use it well traveling and then throw it out and by a new one when Im back in USA... so, I will end up spending $42 (this blender) + $40 (guessing price of random mini blender avaibale where I am, which will be crap) + $45 (new blender when back home .. obv different brand) = $125 (roughly) total... all in for some small inexpensive little blender. the money isnt that big of a deal... it just having to mess around with this stuff, while traveling... which I find frustrating.... knowing that its most likely this extremely stupid design flaw which is the problem.

I use this exclusively for protein shakes, and it's adequate but not exceptional. I probably wouldn't buy it again, though that's not entirely the blender's fault - based on my experience with this machine, I don't think a cordless machine in this price range is capable of doing what I need at the level of performance I want. I wouldn't buy any of its competition either. Pros: -Clearly marked measurements on the cup are extremely helpful -Fully incorporates about 70g of protein powder with 10oz of milk and water in one (abbreviated) blend cycle (see cons) albeit with some grittiness -Cleanup is extremely easy - rinse, add water with dish soap, run a cycle, rinse again, and dry (under 60 seconds total) -Impressively quiet compared to corded blenders - you can have a conversation while running it without raising your voice much if at all -Not only is it USB-C, unlike a lot of inexpensive USB-C devices, it's not picky about chargers Cons: -Quality control issues - my first unit was DOA (wouldn't recognize when the blender cup was installed) -Limited cup size - only 10oz liquid plus 70g protein powder is about all it will fit, and the result is a thicker shake than I really want -Underpowered; the protein shakes I'm making end up with the consistency of a somewhat runny milkshake, and that's about the absolute upper limit for this machine. it overloads and cuts blend cycles short, especially on the second or third uses on a charge. So it's marginal for protein shakes and I suspect it would be worse if ice, nuts, frozen produce, leafy greens, etc. were involved. -Battery only handles about 3 shakes plus 3 cleaning cycles per charge Overall, it's not really a bad machine. It has limitations imposed on it by its form factor and its price point, and if you operate within those limitations, it's serviceable. For me, I need a larger cup so I can make my shakes a little thinner, and I need a better blade design and a lot more power to blend them smooth. If you share those requirements, you will be far better served by a corded unit with a larger cup and probably an 800w or larger motor, albeit at probably 3x the cost or more. This is a reasonable option if portability and budget are priorities, but manage your expectations accordingly.

Received my bullet Saturday. Charged it until Sunday and went to use it Monday. Hit the button, it lights up, but no action. Requested a replacement. Hopefully the replacement works, if so I will update my review. Received my replacement Tuesday. The new one works great. Tried a test run with ice, banana, Almond milk and protein powder. Even at the lower speed, it chopped everything up. This will be a great companion for smoothies on the run.

Good quality; I’m buying it for the second time. The first one stopped charging after three years of constant use.

It did its job but it stopped working after like a month of having it. My mom did used it and she did liked it but it didn’t last long

I was looking for an item to use as a smoothie maker that was portable and easy to use. This product delivered! It's super easy to use and the portion size it delivers is perfect for one person. With a busy lifestyle, it's the perfect mini blender to drop in your ingredients and hit the road - then blend on-the-go. It has a flip top (that's lockable) and offers easy to carry handle. You can drink straight from the blender, so there's no need to take an extra cup with you. I keep a water bottle handy to rinse the blender when done, so it's easier to clean later if the unit is going to sit at your desk or in your car for a while (this way it's not crusty). Once home, drop component items (except the motorized base) into dishwasher, then it's ready to go for next time. I use it so much, I ordered a second one as a backup and for spouse to use (spouse loves milkshakes). There's nothing like FRESH smoothies and shakes for taste!
