NutriBullet Magic Bullet Portable Blender MBPB50100

Excellent product! Easy to use and working as expected.

Usually, I put some water, protein powder, frozen blueberries, and a few cubes of ice and it makes for a great protein smoothie

I love the size and portability of this blender. I travel frequently and can put this in my carry-on to take with me on the go. It’s very powerful and get the job done. The only thing that I don’t like is that I cannot detach the cup from the base to take with me when I’m out and about.

The size is just right, it fits in my car cup holder with no issues. Having the option to blend a drink or infuse water makes it so versatile. Stick to the liquid measuring suggestions for the right smoothie blend. Cleaning the blender is super easy and safe.

Vale cada peso! Lo uso a diario y ha facilitado mucho mi vida. La duración de la pila es excelente.
Regresé para decir que después de 8 meses dejó de cargar. Una lastima

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.
