Sensio 10029 Bella Cucina Rocket Blender Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this item for Christmas this year, and at first I was disappointed, because I had really wanted a Magic Bullet. Now, I realize I was wrong. I love the rocket blender. I use it at least once a day, sometimes more, for smoothies and blended drinks. I am unable to comment on how it does on regular foods because I haven't tried to make anything else, but just as a single-serve easy-clean smoothie maker it's already worth the money. I have heard of people complaining in reviews about the magic bullet not being able to crush ice, but I use whole ice cubes in every drink and my rocket blender crushes every piece and blends it well. I also think it's better for the design factor, it is much better looking than a magic bullet to leave out on my counter, of course it's a little bigger than a coffee cup, but no one should believe everything they hear in infomercials anyway. Even the plastic drink cups look nicer than those "party mugs" they show on the magic bullet commercial. The best reason I would choose this over a magic bullet? It's half the price.

Especially convenient for a single-person kitchen, this versatile appliance comes in handy for making everything from a fruit smoothie in the morning to a batch of salsa when friends come over for poker night. The blender features two stainless-steel blades--one flat and one cross, which effectively blend, chop, grind, mix, and whip up favorite ingredients in seconds. Simply push the button to set the blades spinning. Accessories include one tall cup, one short cup, four party cups, four comfort lip rings, two resealable lids, and two shaker lids. With a small footprint that takes up very little space on the counter, the blender measures 4-5/7 by 4-5/7 by 10 inches high with the short cup or 12-1/5 inches high with the tall cup, and it carries a one-year limited parts-and-labor warranty.

The Bullet Express System (W/ Bonus Juicer Express) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this because I love my Magic Bullet, however, this is definitely not the same quality. The juicer was ok, but the shredder shot my cabbage across the counter, til I found a really big bowl (it's a 2 man job in the infomercial). The third time I used the Bullet, I tried making some dough. The motor overheated after about a minute, then smoke poured out of the machine. I scraped out the dough and used my KitchenAid to finish the job (easily I might add). Fortunately the motor worked again after it cooled down. Check other sites you'll find this and other worse issues to be common problems - including poor customer service. Save your money. This product is not as advertised.

Back to Basics BPE3BRAUS Blender Express Plus 11-Piece Mixing System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's funny, the different experiences people have with the same products. Now, this review is for the Blender Express, not the "Plus." The only difference is the attachments. My wife picked up a couple of these at Wally World after Christmas (2005). They were in a clearance cart for [...] each. I figured that they were probably pretty cheap and I'd have a backup after I burned the first one up. Well, a little over a year later, I'm still using the first one. I use it 3-4 times a week for smoothies and frozen coffee drinks. I have to say that I really abuse the little guy. My coffee drinks call for half of the mug to be filled with crushed ice.
It will make these drinks with a minimum of "crunchy" ice particles and they are quite enjoyable. I never expected it to last this long because, truthfully, from day one, I have been able to notice the "burned wire" odor coming from the unit as I continuosly overload the mug. Yet, it is still chugging along. Even at the full price, a year of this type of useage certainly makes it a good value. And, cleanup is extremely easy and the "make it and run" mug is really handy. Of course, for larger quantities, I fall back on the larger blender. If I ever do wear out both of these units, I would not hesitate to purchase another.
UPDATE: 7/10/2009
Just wanted to add this note. Two and a half years after the above review (makes the unit three-odd years old), we're still using it!!! It still makes the smoothest frozen drinks. I guess we really got lucky with this one. I can't even remember where we put the second one! :)

Even more, the containers feature durable see-through construction, which makes it easy to keep an eye on the consistency and to identify contents at a glance when stored in the refrigerator. A user manual with recipes comes included.

Bullet Ice Cube Tray Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product is EXTREMELY deceiving. The actual mold is very small and it's hard as hell to get the bullets (which are as wide as a wooden pencil) out because they crack. The bullets aren't big at all, maybe 1/8th the size of a normal ice cube.
STAY AWAY!
