gx2Banded 4 Posted October 19, 2012 Hi destynee I have this one at home and it has served me well. http://www.amazon.com/MaxiMatic-EPB-1800-300-Watt-17-Piece-Personal/dp/B001ASAVPA/ref=pd_sim_sbs_k_6 I used it for my medifast while I was preparing for surgery and it blended and crushed ice great! I also used it to puree meat, vegetable, Soups, stews etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lana08 37 Posted October 19, 2012 I highly recommend the Magic Bullet it's perfect!!! Look on Kijiji to find a used one if u want it really cheap but they aren't that expensive from Walmart or costco. I used it post op to purée everything it was great!!! 1 Domika03 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildrose1966 396 Posted October 19, 2012 The bullet is good for puree and blending, it does not crush ice, it just spins it, unless you let it run forever and then it isn't slushy, just more Fluid. I like my bullet except for the lack of ice crushing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe u were using the wrong blade attachment I used it to crush ice to make my Protein shakes everyday 3x a day and it worked great. I would even fill the cup with ice then brew a small coffee over the ice add more ice the Protein powder and make an iced coffee it was delicious and worked excellent. Most come with 2 blade attachments u have to use the bigger blades for ice... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildrose1966 396 Posted October 19, 2012 Nope, I have 2 blades, use the larger one and it just spins the ice. I have to sit there a pulse it or let it run til it disintegrates the ice and there is not even slush. I like it otherwise. but never get crushed ice.

A New New Dawn 1,695 Posted October 19, 2012 I, too, have an off brand magic bullet type blender and love it for pureeing and I make my shake in the morning and it crushes the ice. Not sure why it didn't work for one of the other posters but it works for me. I was lucky enough to come across mine at a garage sale for $5. 1 destynee1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
