Direct Concept Magic Bullet 7712

Pros: Great for dips and spreads.

Cons: Doesn't crush ice completely for a drink.

The Bottom Line: I recommend this product if you like to cook and need to make small portions.

Review: I am not one to buy things from TV advertisements, however, the Magic Bullet caught my eye. I purchased this over a year and a half ago and still use it to this day. It has not replaced my blender or food processor, however, for making small portions ...

Pros: convenient and easy to clean, makes great smoothies, the size

Cons: It doesn't chop

The Bottom Line: I've had this about a year and a half and use it almost everyday. If you want it for drinks (smoothies/shakes) than I definitely recommend! Don't buy for chopping.

Review: I love my Magic Bullet. I use it almost every morning to make some sort of shake or smoothie. Chopping: I do agree that it does NOT chop. I tried putting leftover chicken and some mayo to make chicken salad like on the infomercial. Well even ...

Pros: Small, efficient, easy to use, easy to clean.

Cons: Doesn't really chop or mince like it's supposed to.

The Bottom Line: If you puree a lot or make a lot of shakes or smoothies, you absolutely NEED to have this product in your home!

Review: I have had a magic bullet for well over a year now and use it regularly almost on a daily basis. I mostly use it to puree vegetables for baby food and to make pureed sauces for pasta, dips and smoothies. I have tried to use it to chop tomatoes/onions ...

Pros: Easy clean up, efficient and powerful

Cons: Noisy

The Bottom Line: Fast and efficient

Review: I love the magic bullet! I thought it was perhaps one of those "seen on tv" products that I would use once in a while, only to eventually find it dusty in the back of my pantry after the initial thrill wore off, but NO! I use my Magic Bullet EVERY day, ...

Pros: Simple to use and effective

Cons: Small design flaws in cups.

Review: I have had this unit for a few years now, and it has worked great. It is very simple and safe to use, and it is used by the entire family. There is a small design flaw in the cups though, if they are washed by machine they get warped and the caps do ...

Pros: Great for smoothies, mixed drinks, whipping cream, shakes.

Cons: Does not chop like they show on TV. It's better at mixing than chopping/dicing.

The Bottom Line: I'm neutral. Not what it is hyped to be on TV, but not a bad small portion mixer/blender. NOT A CHOPPER! Probably better units available at a lesser price.

Review: Well, the TV does make this product look magical, but in reality it's just a nice mixer. I've owned this for about 2 years now and it does get used, but it doesn't have the utility the infomercial indicates. On the negative side, I would not by this ...

Pros: small and easy to clean and use

Cons: loud and doesn't work exactly the way it claims

The Bottom Line: I think it is great for creamy creations, not for chopping veggies.

Review: So, my husband and I were enjoying a lazy afternoon in front of the television when an infomercial came on advertising a remarkable handheld blender unlike any other blender we have seen before! At first we just laughed and laughed at the wonderful ...

Pros: Small size, lids allow storage in blender cup, works well with herbs, sauces, dressings.

Cons: Flimsy plastic material, no control over speed, weak blending ability.

The Bottom Line: Do not recommend anything other than the small blender for light use.

Review: So we received the bullet set with the blender set as a gift, and it works well with small portions like salsas, dressings, sauces and etc. The small containers with lids conveniently double for storage as well. That's about the extent of what this ...

Pros: It is small, good for making whipped cream or smoothies.

Cons: Cheap, cheap, cheap.

The Bottom Line: Save your money. It's very cheap. Good only for smoothies and whipped cream.

Review: Don't buy it. Put your money away. I bought this for myself for Christmas. All the commercials finally got to me. I thought what the heck, I'll try it out. This is a piece of junk. There's really no other way to put it. The cups are very small. You ...

Pros: Easy to use blending soft fluid items

Cons: Difficult to blend hard or frozen items and will probably break the unit

The Bottom Line: I think you could get a better, more durable blender for a little more money. It is useful in limited situations.

Review: I have had the unit for about 5 months. I wanted something relatively cheap that I could use at our cabin during the summer. I had a low end blender, but that wasn't very good at blending frozen berries in smoothies. After watching the infomercial I ...
