I absolutely LOVE my magic bullet blender for shakes. I use it every single day. I haven't had great luck (nor have I experimented much) with using it for a lot of other things. But, it is perfect for shakes. I fill it to the same level with CRUSHED ice, add water (or coffee), a dallop of sour cream, my flax seeds (when I remember), and my protein powder. It blends up perfectly every time. It makes the same amount (16oz) and you can drink out of the cup you blend it in. I LOVE not having to wash a blender carafe...or guess which size cup my drink will fit in. The drinks fit perfectly in a starbucks grande cup, too. You can get them at Home shopping network, JR.com, and right now Macy's has them on sale for $49. Sometimes Kohl's carries them as well. Sorry to sound like an infomercial!
