Summary
The Magic Bullet is a compact blender manufactured by Homeland Housewares. It's widely marketed through television commercials and infomercials and sold in retail stores under the "As seen on TV" banner.
Description
The Magic Bullet is a personal blender that is designed to be used as a space saving replacement for other appliances such as a blender, food processor, and electric juicer. The Magic Bullet consists of an electric blender base with a number of attachments. Some of the attachments are included with the product; others must be purchased separately. These consist of:
* Two mixing cups, one short and one tall.
* A set of handled cups, called "Party Mugs" by the manufacturer, which can be used to blend individual drinks
* Threaded lids for the cups, intended for saving things made using the appliance.
* Perforated lids for the cups. These lids are intended to:
o Ventilate items cooked in the cup when using a microwave oven.
o Dispense hard foods, such as cinnamon and Parmesan cheese, that have been ground using the appliance and served in the cups.
* Two screw-on blade attachments: A "cross blade" (used for chopping foods and crushing ice), and a "flat blade" (used for chopping harder foods like spices and hard cheeses, as well as for whipping)
* Different colored "Comfort Lip Rings", which cover the threads on the tops of the mugs.
* A instruction manual which also contains a recipe book("Magic Bullet 10 Second Recipes and Owner Manual"), featuring recipes prepared in the infomercial and others.
* Other attachments include a full size blender pitcher and a manual juice extractor attachment.
Product Features
The Magic Bullet differs from other blenders in that there is no on/off switch. The appliance is used by attaching a blade attachment to the desired cup and fitting the assembly upside down on top of the base. The base contains the motor that turns the blade, which is inside the cup. When the cup and blade are pressed down and turned, the motor engages and spins the blade. When the cup is removed from the base, the motor turns off.
