Do any of you mama's out there have one or both of these bullets? If so do you actually use them on a regular basis? Is it really as simple as they claim it to be? Was it worth the money for you?
I was thinking of getting the Baby Bullet and maybe the Magic Bullet but I honestly don't know how much I will use it. So what do you think?
Thanks in Advance!
I used my Magic Bullet for baby food, before the Baby Bullet came out. It worked well. I also use it for smoothies for my son now, for breakfast. So, yes, I used it. However, the one blade just stopped working, so I only have one other blade now. So I'm a little disenfranchised with it right now. I have had it for a couple years, though, so maybe that's all it's supposed to last.
I have had 3 sets and wore them all out. I'm kind of getting tired of how much it seems like they wear out. However, we do use them a LOT. It's just so much easier to chop with it than to get the quisinart out. I don't like how many pieces and parts there are to the quisinart.
Things I love... I like making cheese sauce using the magic bullet.
I like making chicken or beef spread out of it. I like using it to make slim fast shakes or other shakes. If you have a baby in the house, yes, it's fast and easy.
BUT, on the down side... The seals come out easy and wear out fast. The blades get dull quickly too. It seems like I end up using them for a long time when they aren't working as well as they did at first.
I do LIKE keeping small amounts of leftovers in the container. The lids and containers are convenient.
Like any other kitchen gadget... If you use it a lot, it's going to wear out. It takes up a LOT less space than a blender.
I've had 2 magic bullets over the last 7 years and I love it. I originally bought it to make baby food, not that my kids are older, I use it to make smoothies. I don't use it for much else though. I do love mine!
I got a a knock-off for $15 on sale. I love it and use it almost everyday. I does not pulverize things though. I have a larger appliance for smoothies that I use everyday. It will pulverize anything, including seeds.
We got a knock-off magic bullet a couple of years ago (for our son, actually) and he has really enjoyed making things with it.... I haven't used it much, though.
He just bought himself a Ninja food processor set and loves that.... he enjoys cooking and working in the kitchen, and is planning on starting Culinary school this spring or summer.
I do have a magic bullet n I really LOVE IT!!!! I would get the magic bullet n forget the baby bullet that one is almost identical to the magic bullet you can do the same things with the magic bullet that u can do with the baby bullet. Now if your on your first or second child n plan on having more than go ahead. But if not stick to the magic bullet n enjoy i love mine use it daily. Love Margarittas in 2 mins or less too.
