I am new in this site and reading about the NutriBullet. I am wondering if anyone tried to pput pomegrante in their smoothie? I have tried with Magic bullet and it didn't work I had seeds left over!jackie999 wrote: ↑From the nutribullet FAQ
Q: How does the NutriBullet compare to the Magic Bullet?
A: The NutriBullet has a 600 watt motor (Magic Bullet has 250). The NutriBullet large vessel has a 24-ounce capacity (Magic Bullet is 18 ounce) and the NutriBullet comes with the all-new Extractor Blade that emulsifies even the toughest of ingredients including seeds, nuts and stems.

it's a blender, not a juicer, so of course it will have seeds left over.

Well, ur funneh and that's funny. I own both blenders and although I've never done this exact test, I can assure you that essentially every test or use I've compared between them, the Vitamix is far superior. The KA is great for the price and is a very good blender. The Vitamix is just on a completely other level. Make a strawberry smoothie or margarita and there are seeds remaining with the KA and the drink will separate after a while. The same drink made with the Vita has zero seeds, is much smoother and stays together much, much longer. So, yes the KA will do the job, but the Vitamix does the job much better....unless of course you toss a whole orange in, I suppose.ur_funneh wrote: ↑http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkcgBwbE7nw
this video clearly states the kitchenaid is superior to your vitamix. Funny enough there was a similar thread to how wonderful the vitamix was and as soon as I posted this similar video the thread just pretty much got all quiet, I will assume this will happen again.

I can't vouch for pomegranate seeds but I have seen people use them in smoothies on the facebook recipe page. I do know flax seeds in a blender doesn't work..they just fly around and aren't broken down..in a nutribullet they are ground to powder.

I have been using Nutribullet for the past 4 months now and enjoyed my smoothies almost daily; until this morning....the sharpe blades base after cleaning it ...I noticed rust coming out from the middle part and on both sides. I don't know how long that has been shutting rust flavor into my juice? I am a clean freak and this is not right. I will return it today at BBB for sure. The part is moving up and done so of course some juice and rust can get mix. The part should be sealed but it is not. Be careful future buyer!

You weren't drying it properly then. I have had it for over 6 months, used at least once daily and no rust. Just make sure you dry it properly.Noellee wrote: ↑I have been using Nutribullet for the past 4 months now and enjoyed my smoothies almost daily; until this morning....the sharpe blades base after cleaning it ...I noticed rust coming out from the middle part and on both sides.

You're confusing the magic bullet with the nutribullet.epik89 wrote: ↑I got this

The motor in the nutribullet is 600 watts. Your cusinart is only 350 watts.

We have the magic bullet, and so far it is ok for grinding spices, herbs, etc.
No issues so far and quality is good too.
It is the smaller version of nutribullet

I've noticed my nutribullet is getting pretty loud, it seems to be the blade making all the racket so I ordered a new blade from the site, for < $15, which seems reasonable to me.
This youtube video shows the 'new improved' blade,

It may also be the old blade vs the new blade. I got one about 3 months ago as a gift and I just watched the video comparing the blades and I have the new one. I've been using it daily ever since I got it and it has been fine. My only complaint is that the travel lids don't have a silicone sealing ring so they are not water tight. So even with the lid on, don't let the cup fall over or it will slowly leak (like in my car). Other than that I've been loving it. I also take out the ring on the blade and rinse it every day. Much easier to clean than the blender since there are fewer pieces.
I also has a cheap single serve Hamilton Beach one years ago and it worked fine fine but gets a burning motor smell after a few months and the blade was at the bottom of the cup and hard to clean. Not sure if they are still like that.
