Very Handy January 13, 2007 James Pierce (Bryan, Texas USA) 23 out of 23 found this review helpful
It's funny, the different experiences people have with the same products. Now, this review is for the Blender Express, not the "Plus." The only difference is the attachments. My wife picked up a couple of these at Wally World after Christmas (2005). They were in a clearance cart for [...] each. I figured that they were probably pretty cheap and I'd have a backup after I burned the first one up. Well, a little over a year later, I'm still using the first one. I use it 3-4 times a week for smoothies and frozen coffee drinks. I have to say that I really abuse the little guy. My coffee drinks call for half of the mug to be filled with crushed ice.
It will make these drinks with a minimum of "crunchy" ice particles and they are quite enjoyable. I never expected it to last this long because, truthfully, from day one, I have been able to notice the "burned wire" odor coming from the unit as I continuosly overload the mug. Yet, it is still chugging along. Even at the full price, a year of this type of useage certainly makes it a good value. And, cleanup is extremely easy and the "make it and run" mug is really handy. Of course, for larger quantities, I fall back on the larger blender. If I ever do wear out both of these units, I would not hesitate to purchase another.
UPDATE: 7/10/2009
Just wanted to add this note. Two and a half years after the above review (makes the unit three-odd years old), we're still using it!!! It still makes the smoothest frozen drinks. I guess we really got lucky with this one. I can't even remember where we put the second one! :)
simply the best blender to go July 3, 2007 K. Wong (Shell Beach, CA USA) 16 out of 16 found this review helpful
I have been using the Back to Basics Blender for about a month now. Previously, I own the Magic Bullet as well as the Shake and Taken blender.
Magic Bullet did not last after 2 months. The gear got stripped out. Shake and Take is still working but the container is long and hard to clean.
I really like the 24oz container of the Back to Bacics Blender. It is easy to clean. This is really THE BEST ONE on the market right now and the price is quite inexpensive.
Super Fast Smoothies! March 20, 2007 Megan M. Tran (Rancho Santa Margarita, California) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I love this thing. I make a smoothie every morning for my husband and it only takes me about 5 minutes to put it together, from start to finish. It does not say that that the cups are dishwasher safe but I put mine in the top rack and I have not broken it yet! It blends surprisingly well and I have never had a problem with it leaving any chunks of fruit or ice. This works better for me than any other standard blender I have used.
little blender is a Whiz! March 17, 2007 P. M. Ayers (Midwest USA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Love this little blender. Mix in container add a rim and drink. Blades are permanently attached, so no leakage. A great little smoothie, breakfast drink mixer.
