I ordered this bullet after the one I had for 13 years finally bit the dust.  We love this thing.  It works far better than I would have ever imagined.  We use it for everything.  Crushing ice, grating cheese, making cocktails, pesto, salsa and grinding coffee.  This set did not include the other blade that our original one did but it's  half the price we originally paid.  Not sure the advantage of the Nutri Bullet, but as well as this thing works I can't see needing to upgrade.
