I bought a magic bullet 5 years ago and it worked really well. Unfortunately it died recently, a good long life for a kitchen appliance to be sure. So I buy a new one. Not the same. When it runs it makes a foul chemical burning smell. The LAST thing I want to smell in my kitchen let alone right before I drink the smoothie. Either I got a defected one or Nutribullet cheap’d out after years of making a quality product to increase margin by selling garbage-quality stuff. Shame. I used to buy these as gifts.
