My blender sucks, and so has every blender I've ever owned. Can someone recommend one that won't leave my smoothies chunky and is able to crush ice?

love, love, love my majic bullet. I would go into a major depression if it died on me.0

I have a Vitamix and found it for 358 one day at HSN. It normally goes for close to $500. I love it is one of the best. But consumer Reports rated the Ninja, I think as just as good for about $125. Wish I had know that before I got my vitamix. But it's worth it. We use it every day sometimes up to 3 or 4 times a day.0

the vitamix is definately better0 -
This is a good question I've killed about 9 in the past 3 years. No all of them were not mine. One was a magic bullet. It magically bit the dust.0

my magic bullet died and it did give me a sad face. it was very convenient for small shakes. great for dialing in your portions etc.0

I've heard nothing but wonderful things about the vitamix, but I'm in zero position to be spending hundreds of dollars.0

Magic bullet works well but you need to keep in mind it is designed for pulse blending. Never leave it on for more than 10-15 seconds at a time. You will burn the motor out otherwise. Many of these small blenders function the same way. Use it in short intervals only.0

Go with the Vita Mix!! It is awesome ~ does a great job with little effort!0

Blendtec is in the same class, price and proformance, as Vita Mix. I love mine.0

We got a Ninja and I love it. We got it with a coupon so it was about $60 or $70 I think, but it came with 4 travel/single serve blender cups and a large container as well. So far it is amazing and we've had it for a couple of months. I have only heard good things about the Vitamix, but extremely expensive.0

Hamilton Beach WaveStation 4-Speed Blender from Walmart $20....I have been using this since June almost everyday, sometimes twice a day, with no issues....It comes with a "dispenser" valve and flat cap. The flat cap can leak, so I put a piece of plastic wrap on and screw the cap on. I usually use the pulse option a few times then move through the other speeds and I have no problems! I am on a budget too and can't afford anything more right now!0

I also have a HB wave station that works pretty well but usually use my margaritaville blender . I LOOOOVE it! Not only does it pulverize my spinach or kale that I throw in with my smoothies, but you can also just "shave" the ice and use it with SF syrup for a shaved ice kind of thing. I hesitated getting it because it cost so much, but would replace it in a second if something happened to it. (makes great margaritas too! )0

I still say magic bullet. I have had mine for 6 years now, use it 1 or 2 times a day with no issues.0

The Vitamix is my most favorite thing ever in life.0

The Blendtec has NOTHING on the Vitamix.0 -

Yes but will the ninja last for a lifetime? No. My cousin has had her Vitamix for almost 30 years with no signs of wear or tear.
It's also Made in America (Cleveland) and I love that. The Ninja is made in China.0 -

The Vitamix is not sold on HSN...perhaps you meant QVC?0 -
