Magic Bullet Blender - High Speed Mixing System Review

After watching the infomercial enough times to memorize it, my husband bought this for me as a gift when he found it on sale.  I am very skeptical and quick to doubt, but I admit that this appliance is very handy in my busy family life.  I use it for making homemade baby food, fruit smoothies (as advertised) and especially for preparing ingredients for meals and snacks. Clean up is easy: toss the cups and blades into the dishwasher and wipe the base off.  It's small and meant for short bursts of blending. If you want a food processor, buy one.  But if you want a fun gadget that can shave time off from kitchen duty, you should try this.  Also ideal for those with a picky family where every member has a particular drink they prefer because you can use the individual mugs to mix up the perfect drink for each person.  Two things I had issues with:  the price and the name.  I'm cheap by nature so I would naturally suggest buying when on sale or with a coupon.  And I'm still a young(ish) adult and the magic bullet I knew about wasn't appropriate for setting out on your kitchen counter.
