NutriBullet N12-1001 10pc Single Serve Blender

As you can see in this photo, I went from an original NutriBullet which I purchased eight years ago. The old girl motor was starting to burn out. So it’s time for me to get a new one. I was definitely surprised when I noticed the cup is considerably smaller than the original. It does work good, but I guess you could say I was spoiled with the first one that had a handle on the cup, I could make more of a drink to share instead of a single serving. This was a disappointment. It makes me wonder, is this one going to last as long as my original Nutri bullet?! UPDATE: I have now had this blender for about a month. I wanted to hold off before I sent my review in. I stand by the fact that this blender is a lot smaller than the first Nutri bullet that I owned. But that is not my major concern now. It’s the fact that if you don’t put it on really tight, it will leak the drink all in the inside and drain out through the bottom. You have to put the lid on so tight that it won’t leak. But that’s where the problem comes up. You need vice grips to remove it once you’re done blending. I usually have to have my husband help me take it off and I am pretty strong. It develops a vacuum, that really keeps it tight. This is not for someone who has weak wrist or has arthritis on their wrist/hands! My husband and I were on vacation and I took it with us, that is when I noticed this problem. Unfortunately, I threw away the packaging and it was too late for me to return it. I give it a one star only because it blends the way it’s supposed to. But other than that would be having to wash/clean up the inside (see pics) and pray that I don’t get electrocuted when I use it again. I wouldn’t recommend this to people that have Arthritic issues. UPDATE: I gave it more time to see if it worked out and it was a complete bust. I can now officially say this blender finally gave up the ghost. I went to blend yesterday and the blender did not start at all. I was telling my husband that I’m just throwing this thing away it’s net worth returning it. My husband opened up the bottom of it to look at it, and it was all corroded with what I’m assuming is the smoothie in the inside causing the motor to burn out. In addition, I would tighten the cap/lid as much as I could to avoid splattering or leaking and I would say 5 times out of 10 it wouldn’t leak. And if its did leak I would need to rinse it out because it would go inside. It would be draining smoothie mix from underneath. So the bottom line is, I will never buy another Nutri bullet again. $100 down the drain.
