A friend has one and does not like it, despite the TV infomercials. It is not a food processor -- it is more like a mini chopper. It doesn't have the strength to do serious chopping and it ends up tearing the pieces of solid food into mush (sometimes getting caught in the blades). It is OK for smoothies, drinks, dips, anything that uses softer ingredients, but don't be fooled into thinking it is a smaller version of a powerful food processor or a regular blender. I've also read online reviews were people complained about customer service problems.

IT IS A WORTHLESS PIECE OF JUNK WITH PARTS and I do mean junk. For awhile they were selling 2 for the price of 1. so afew of us bought them and split the cost. Big mistake, they had to "ALL GO BACK". the juicers never worked the engine was not strong enough, we didn't purchase ours just to make smoothies we all had larger appliances. I have a little 23 year old Oacar that still works like a charm I use it everyday for something. My large expensive cuisinart is not much better than the magic bullet but it does crush ice. Its impossible to clean under the blades.

I don't have one, but mom does and she loves hers. Since dad has to have his food chopped up really fine, she does that with it. She has not had any problems with hers at all. Sorry I don't have any recipes here to make a healthy dip, she has all that at her house.

I saw that Sunbeam has come out with one and it is under $25. Still not sure if it is worth it if you already own a blender or food processor.

I've seen them on the infommercials, and they look so easy and good! I am sort of disappointed to hear that they don't make the grade, but not surprised. I really wanted one when they first came out but I wouldn't spend the money. Glad I didn't.

I bought mine in a store on sale for $59. I like it a lot, as it is very easy to use and doesn't take up much space, but I must say that all I use if for is frozen drinks, such as frozen lemonade concentrate, frozen peaches, a little sugar, and vodka...........

We've had ours for about 2 years and we love it! But I must say we mostly make smoothies and drinks with it. I saw it at our local store yesterday for sale. Not sure I'd ever make all the stuff they do on the informercial, but we do enjoy yours!

I always wanted to try one, but I have so many other gadgets that do the same thing basically ,so I never spent the money.
