Kind Of Complicated

I'm not sure if I am doing something wrong, but this blender is a little difficult to use. First of all, it does not seem to allow you to just turn it on and off with the button on the face. I think it is expecting for you to enter the information about the ingredients into the app. Well, the app doesn't work well, either because if you do not use one of the pre-made recipes already in the app, it does not appear to want to start blending. I have resorted to pushing the button and then unplugging the machine when the ingredients are blended. It's kind of dumb, but that's what I'm doing until I figure this thing out!

I like this Bullet. The blender is very heavy and appears to be well made. It comes with two giant blender cups and “to go” lids are included. I downloaded the app and very easily connected to my iPad via Bluetooth. I wanted to try one of the recipes on the app. I’m not really concerned about nutrition but wanted to try the ingredient ‘sensitivity “ of the blender. I had barely heard of some of the ingredients and had to make a special run to the grocery store to try to make a “nutritional” smoothie that we might actually like. I’ll just say it was expensive. I found the instructions a bit confusing but the app recorded the weights very closely. For those who really need to be accurate and precise, I think this Bullet will be a very nice addition. I was surprised that the blades are not sharp like my Ninja. I found that they didn’t need to be. This thing blended chunks of frozen bananas, spinach leaves, clumps of frozen strawberries and it was truly smooth. I t is a great little blender. I’m keeping it on my counter since the “footprint” is small. We’ve made several smoothies but I’m more of a dump stuff in person so the manual option is best for us. I haven’t really used the app to measure the ingredients again. When I’m epready to start my diet this will be great to help me count my calories and watch my nutritional intake. I’m actually very impressed with the power and ease this Bullet turns anything I’ve thrown in it to a very smooth tasty treat.

I was so excited when I bought this but I immediately returned it. It was leaking and very loud. The regular one without bluetooth is so much better than this. I love their concept but it's not quite a good product. Maybe in the future, they can master something like this.

I have owned a few nutribullets. This one has a lot of new technology. I love the way that the scale inside of the unit helps you make smoothie recipes. And that you can drag nutritional information through the app. But I think that he's a little bit of upgrading. It's not very user-friendly. And not easy to make recipes that you search for. The blender is self Five Star but the app needs attention.

It Just took Once...Im A Fan For Sure!!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
After my first use, I am a fan
I did 8oz cold whole milk, 1/2 cup of strawberries, a small nanner and a scoop of protien powder and a few ice cubes.
Just like drinking a HUGE low cal milkshake, and it was really good
Could have cut the carbs in half by eliminating the nanner but was just experimenting with the nutrition calculaton system.
Ya put an app on your smartphone and this weighs the ingredients as you add them and name them.
Save the recipe for future meals and snacks so you easily know the data for that smoothie.
And of course when your in a hurry it can be used manually without the app.
It completly liquifies your ingredients.
Go healthy or go delicious or strike a healthy and happy medium, your in control, its up to you.

My son loves to make smoothies and this is a great addition to the kitchen. He was using the Ninja and it is very large on the counter... the NutriBullet Balance is much smaller and even better! Great design and love the suction cups on the base of the unit.
We first downloaded the App to our phones and connected via Bluetooth. Washed all the components and got started on making our smoothies. In the app there is an option to create your own recipe or use one there. We did both and it was super easy. Love that it weighs your ingredients as they are placed in the blender! Even better was being shown the nutritional information, including calories, protein, carbs, sugar, and fiber. You can also find recipes for soups, desserts, and dips!

This was my first time using using a NutriBullet and I was very impressed. I had a similar blender from Hamilton beach but there is really no comparison. I wasn’t sure why Bluetooth would be needed for a blender but it was a great addition. Being able to measure your servings and see it live on the app as you’re adding ingredients is great. You can track and find new recipes with the app. I feel like this is a great product for anyone trying to monitor servings, gain or lose weight for anyone really. The cups are large which I appreciate I can save for later instead of having to make 2 like I used to with my Hamilton beach. Great product easy to setup and use.

This system comes with 2 large cups. Love it. The cups have 2 ways to drink from. Either a ring and drink like a normal cup or it has a nice lid piece that makes it like one of those shaker cups. Works great so far. I like to just get frozen fruit and juice and blend. Takes a minute or so at most. Simple to use. With a blender you have to blend first then pour into cup. This is already in a cup once you blend it.
I also like that you can manually turn it on and off or use the app and connect and it will do it for you. The app helps keep track for you as to what you eat. And had a lot of recipes as well as you can add your own.

Great blender, questionable app

Pros:
- Strong, durable, build with very easy to clean parts
- Very easy to use and reliable operation
Con
- App is basically worthless. When it is not force closing it runs at a deathly slow pace. It can possibly helpful as it can give recipes with percise measurements relateable to the container, but it's just not there yet.
I would recommend the blender based on it's physical function alone, but don't have high hopes for the software.

Blender Great, App needs works

the blender itself is fantastic. not too loud, blends well, sturdy construction. however, the purpose for the upgrade was to be able to use the connected functionality. it takes 3-5 minutes to connect when it actually connects. this makes it virtually unusable in this fashion. Another issue is that it doesn't always measure a very small amt if an ingredient, when ur composing ur own recipe, ie- tablespoon or less of ingredients. Absolutely love the blender. A definite buy.

This NutriBullet Balance Blender with enabled Bluetooth, is an amazing addition to our kitchen. It works really well, and it has the benefit of the Bluetooth syncing via their app. We had some issues with the app on Android. But when it works it is amazing, giving a complete profile of it's nutritional information.

What a neat blender

I really like the Nutribullet and this new feature of being able to weigh what you put in with the scale is pretty awesome. Its a little time consuming at first but if you plan to use it often and the same ingredients, it wont be as time consuming as the first time and I'm sure once you get the hang of it, it goes pretty quick even if you add new recipes and ingredients. Being able to sync it to your phone is nice too. I love that feature. I actually used the recipes they offer on the app. Your also able to send the ingredients to your shopping list on the app so if you plan to make several different smoothies the ingredients will all be there. Just be careful to save the name because it doesn't separate them for you. The ingredients are all clustered together. I would def. recommend purchasing this. I own another blender too and this one I like because it saves counter space and its so much more convenient with the app.

How do you start?

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Wife seamlessly hooked up via Bluetooth and to phone. The app shows the nutrition value of food items you put into cup based on weight of items from the internal scale. However, we were making margaritas and it did not have margarita mix on app! My wife and I were able to get past that but no where in the directions or anywhere does it tell you how to start blending. After, too much time we finally got it to start by pressing down on cup but come on! The app tells you time to hold down and you just hold down or you do not we still do not know. Items blended and we enjoyed margaritas. It is a little noisy and it appeared to be scary for my wife as she was the one holding it down.

Great Blender and Bluetooth Integration is Helpful

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
If it werent for the bluetooth integration, this "bullet" would not be much different than others out there on the market. The machine is well built and the device does an excellent job of blending. The real difference comes when you connect it to your mobile device and use the application to manage what you mix in the machine. There are pre-prepared recipies you can use to make shakes. You can also mix your own and input the ingredients to be tracked by the application. It's easy to use and setup and being able to track your various recipies is an excellent touch. I would recommend this device.

Great for making smoothies!

This little blender makes a great smoothie. It has managed to fully crush all of the ice I have thrown at it and blends up fruits very well.
The connectivity to the app on my phone is a really cool feature and the ability to "measure" ingredients is really cool and saves me from having to use a measuring cup/spoon.
If I had to say anything negative about this, it would be in the cups themselves.
1) They are quite large in diameter and do not fit in the cupholders of any of my three vehicles.
2) While the lids to seal well to form a leakproof seal, they don't instill much confidence that they won't come open (for instance when I carry them in my bag.
3) The lack of measurement marks on the sides make manually measuring ingredients or the amount of intake impossible with the cup alone.
4) The lack of any double wall insulation causes them to sweat profusely...I have to add ice to my smoothies to keep them cold for the drive to work, and they sweat all over my bag by the time I get there.
Also, the app lacks many ingredients.
Overall, this is a fantastic little blender with modern connectivity and a cool app, but does have a few shortcomings that hinder it from being the perfect smoothie blender.

Okay -- a smart blender? Well, that's really cool. I'm still getting used to the functionality, but it's a great way to be able to tell the nutritional value of your smoothies, cocktails, etc.
The motor is way powerful, and it looks and feels solid. There's even plastic rings to cover the threads on the cup so that you're not sipping on a threaded edge when drinking.
A couple of things I don't like about it so much -- the cups are huge!! It's more for like 2 people, and the containers are too deep for drinking straws. The lid thingie -- I really wish it had a breathing hole, because when I drink from the lid, my mouth forms a seal and the drink doesn't come out very well. So I have to use the mouthpiece on the lid like drinking from a tiny cup, and that's pretty messy.
I understand that you can use this with existing nutribullet containers, so I'll have to try those and see if it's better for me.
