Buy one. You won't regret it. That is all.
Outstanding. I use it daily to grind 1 cup of oats for pre-workout. Done in a minute with a little tapping/shaking with the small cup.Just curious, you guys that have one. How well does it blend up oats into something drinkable?

I really like the Magic Bullet, works great for shakes but can get clogged if you use too much PB and too many scoops proteing without enough liquid. That goes for any blender though, but if you like a 64oz shake, it's not for you...
I think you'll like it. It's easy to clean too, just rinse and dry 2 pieces for oats.Thanks brotha, I am specifically looking for something that is gonna work well for oats, and my standard 15 dollar blender ain't cuttin it, haha. So I took the plunge a few min ago and bought a bullet from amazon
You won't regret it man. I grind oats in mine sometimes too. I also put wheat germ in there a lot. Grinds it up pretty well.Thanks brotha, I am specifically looking for something that is gonna work well for oats, and my standard 15 dollar blender ain't cuttin it, haha.

No, but it's compact.Hey,are these things cordless?
your gonna love it, MTD, TRUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Just curious, you guys that have one. How well does it blend up oats into something drinkable?
I haven't added oats to my shakes in over a year, thanks for the reminder! Sounds delicious. I might have some vanilla protein with some milk, blueberries, peanut butter, and oats later!I ALMOST bought one at the QVC outlet at the Myrtle beach tanger outlets Sunday...now I saw this post and I am pissed I didn't...it was a set for like 50.00 ...I was figuring I can likely get it at Target or somewhere like that...might check out Amazon like ya'll said. Looking to get one primarily for grinding oats myself. Need to up my cals somehow and that seems like a great way by adding the oats into a shake.
Sounds OUTSTANDING (pun intended kind of)! What kind of PB you puttin in there?I haven't added oats to my shakes in over a year, thanks for the reminder! Sounds delicious. I might have some vanilla protein with some milk, blueberries, peanut butter, and oats later!
I have a few containers of Power Butter, but I also love Smuckers all naturalSounds OUTSTANDING (pun intended kind of)! What kind of PB you puttin in there?
Ever check out Naturally more? Good stuff and I highly recommend.I have a few containers of Power Butter, but I also love Smuckers all natural
Not so sure on the MB...def dont get a slap chop...I got one and tried it and it def does NOT work like they show it on TV...truth in advertising HA!Anyone use it to chop up veggies? I'm looking for a lazy man's alternative to doing all that cutting.
Not yet but i know it tears up pumpkin seeds in like 5sec.Only thing i think with the veggies is it might turn them into a paste mybe.Anyone use it to chop up veggies? I'm looking for a lazy man's alternative to doing all that cutting.

Interesting, where can one find said Vitamix?VITAMIX > magic bullet
Its pretty much the blender you see smoothie king , starbucks, etc use to make their smoothies and coffees. You know as well as i do, that you have at least once in your life said this after drinking a smoothie/coffee from one of those places...."man, if i could make one of these at home, then i would drink these all the time"
well, the vitamix can do that and more. How about putting a whole bag of spinach, cup of grapes, kale, bluberries, pears, greek yogurt, etc...etc.....blend it up and drink it. Not a single clump....all smooth as water.
Yea, they cost a lot, but are worth it IMO
Good lord at 1k for a vitamix no thanks!Yeah the Vitamix has always intrigued me... but for now, until I have well over $1,000 to buy one, I'll keep using Jack Lalane's Juicer.
What's the difference between models? I wonder if the 'cheaper' $500 model can still take the abuse and years of usage? Eh, what am I saying, I'm not going to spend $1,000 or $500 haha!I checked out their website, the reasonable ones are actually only 500, haha.

Now you tell me after i already got one!Oh well i still like it.Except for grinding nuts,but could make p/b with it!I've had my bullet for 4 years now, only problem I had was the plastic/ rubber gear on the bottom of the blade broke off- easy fix with super glue though! And they do have a cordless version http://www.bullettogo.com/
Holy monkeyballs!!!$1000 for that much i'll just chew really,really fast!Yeah the Vitamix has always intrigued me... but for now, until I have well over $1,000 to buy one, I'll keep using Jack Lalane's Juicer.
Thanks so much, reps - great post. I am not doubting in any way the amazing power of these machines, I'm just saying right now I'd rather buy another couple hundred grams of testoser.... um, I mean, make a car payment, then buy a juiceractually, right now on their website, you can get a refurbished one (its basically a new one) with a 5 yr warranty for 359 + free shipping. Its the new model , 5200. The thing is an absolute beast, and i will probably order mine tomorrow.
To answer some questions on how durable they are...umm...they last forever. Its a 2hp motor. It will cook/boil soup in the container...boil water in a few minutes. People have had their original vitamix blenders for over 20yrs. So, yea, they are well made. Take a look.

comparing 2 top blenders.....blendtec vs vitamix.

try a banana in there WITH the oats, for some reason it holds the oats and makes the whole mix smooth and drinkable as opposed to either them all sinking to the bottom or being gritty.My most awesome GF got me a MB this weekend. Ground up some oats for my post workout shake...I think I needed to grind it a little longer it was gritty...looking forward to trying some other idea's.
Will give it a shot + reps for you!try a banana in there WITH the oats, for some reason it holds the oats and makes the whole mix smooth and drinkable as opposed to either them all sinking to the bottom or being gritty.
