I love mine. One of the best gadgets ever.
Any interesting recipes?
I've just made in the small cup;

1 small hand full of spinach.
1 banana.
12 white grapes.
Squeeze of lime juice.
Small piece of ginger.
50% semi-skimmed milk / 50% water.

Beautiful.

Absolute piece of p*ss. Just rinse the cup and the mixing blade under a cold tap. No more than 10 seconds. That's assuming you've only used fruit and/or vegetables and other none-oily ingredients.
I make my own version of Mulligatawny soup, using different vegetables and a heap of curry paste, so that needs washing up with hot water and fairy liquid due the oil but there's nothing complicated whatsoever.

part vodka
1 part tequila
1 part rum
1 part gin
1 part triple sec
lemon juice
little cola
ice

Makes a nice drink.

Seriously I make a drink like yours but also grind up sunflower seeds, walnuts and various other nuts and seeds before adding liquid. Still easy to clean.

You evil bugger. You were supposed to say "its a right kerfuffle". I now have to buy one and will probably wear it out in no time.

I bought one of these around 6 months ago - it's easily the best thing I have bought in many years.

So simple to have at one least one really healthy meal a day, made in a couple of minutes and cleaning literally is a rinse under a running tap.

I mix a carrot in with a variety of berries, peaches, seeds nuts and honey and thats breakfast done - really tasty and filling until lunchtime - then I drink beer and eat too much junk (ah well)

I've been so tempted to get one, best way to get 5-a-day in one fell swoop.

Is it not just a blender that's had its price hiked to appeal to those on food crazes?

Pah! This is no mere blender. This is a “superfood nutrition extractor”.

It's just a very good blender which is much easier to clean, I wouldn't pay for one my self but luckily my housemate did

Managed to get one for £45 on Sunday with the help of Argos and an army of money off vouchers. More than anything, it's an excuse to try and make a more healthy crack at a breakfast smoothie. Tried kale, avocado, banana, lime juice and coconut water this morning, looked "green" but was actually not half bad!

Oh yeah, and it's stupidly easy to clean.

No - apart from the easy to clean bit, it's super-fast and strong enough to do more fibrous stuff, and handily one-person sized.

Great way to get your 5 a day.

We got a Breville version that was only 20 quid, and it brilliant. I've been on lanzoprazole for years, but there is fruit based recipe that I now have daily and I've been able to kick the pills into touch

I put 1" pieces of ripe banana in my freezer and they make fantastic banana flavoured ice cubes in my Nutriblast.

I'm sure it's still good for you but pulping fruit and veg reduces the health benefits. Don't think it can replace whole veg, only supplement it

Oh no no, I didn't mean entirely replace it. Only add to what I consume per day, I've often found myself only having 1 piece of fruit and then veg in the evening per day; wish to boost my consumption.
