NutriBullet NBR-1201 12-Piece High-Speed Blender/Mixer System, Gray (600 Watts)

Wow! First of all the price was unbelievably low. I paid $68 for a brand new Nutribullet 600. I ordered it on Tuesday, June 2 and it arrived on Thursday, June 4. How is that even possible?I’ve had a Breville Compact Juicer for over a year but don’t use it anymore because every time I juice I need a shower afterwards. Pieces of veggies fly out of the shoot and end up in my hair, on my clothes and all over my kitchen. On top of that it takes about 15 minutes to clean. The cup is filled with foam after juicing and it’s extremely expensive to use because it takes so many veggies to make a full glass.I have some health issues to reverse and a bunch of weight to lose and after seeing an infomercial for the Nutribullet one night I decided to do some research and check out some youtube videos. Because I was able to find the Nutribullet 600 for such a low price and because many reviews and videos mentioned that there’s very little difference between the 600 series and the 900 series I decided to buy the 600.The Nutribullet I received has the new blade so hopefully I won’t have the rusting and leaking issues I read about in earlier reviews. In fact, one of the youtube videos shows the old blade and new blade next to each other so I know I received the upgraded version.My first smoothie, or Nutriblast wasn’t great because I used too many greens and not enough fruit. Except for that making the smoothie and cleaning up was flawless. For tonight’s smoothie I used the smaller cup and a different blend of ingredients and it was much better. I used too much liquid tonight so it wasn’t as creamy as I would have liked. I see this is a matter of mastering the recipes, like preparing any other meal,I bought the extended warranty offered by Amazon for only $5. It’s much more expensive on the Nutribullet website.I think I’m going to love this little workhorse. I have a fridge full of organic fruit and organic veggies and I hope by this time next week I can update this review with a glowing report of better health and more energy.** Update: Very happy to report this unit is working flawlessly! Tonight I made the most delicious smoothy ever using frozen organic blueberries, frozen organic strawberries, organic baby spinach, Barleans flax oil, organic vanilla yogurt, almond milk (couldn’t find organic). So incredibly delicious and easy. I called Nutribullet Tech Support to get some guidance about the rust issues other people have been reporting. Spoke to an incredible support tech named Michael. He explained to me that all appliances of this kind contain lubricating oil to keep the gears running smoothly. If the unit is damaged because of misuse the oil can leak from the section housing it. If the unit is not damaged the section containing the lubricating oil should remain intact. He explained that sometimes people don’t know they damaged the unit because it continues working. He suggested changing the blade every 6 months as a precaution. Hope this helps.
