I know the Nutribullet isn't a juicer, but wondered about the texture. any answers would be appreciated.

I use all kinds of textures from nuts to all types of fruit and veggies. it depends how smooth you want the final product to be. Just let it run longer or add more milk/water for extra smoothness.

Instead of juicing where the pulp is removed at the end and disposed of, this machine pulverizes the fruit and vegetables into more of a solid form. Instead of juice it is more like a pudding. I eat my blended raw vegetables and fruits with a spoon. I make my morning drink with a whole lemon with peal & seeds removed, a chunk of ginger, a banana, a half of avacado, a whole organic apple, and a big handful of kale or greens, pinapple chunks if you have any, and add water and put the blender into action. In about 30 seconds it is an edible green shake. I add fresh blueberries on top and eat it with a spoon. delicious. It comes with a recipe booklet and you can add nuts or flax seed to it as well. You eat all the fibre with the juice so the entire vegetable or fruit is consumed. Very few particles are in the mix -- Depending how much water you add to the container when you are blending the mix it can be thick or more liquidy.

I think it works fine, just let it run longer if you want a creamer texture. I use walnuts, almonds, spinach, all the berries and bananas with a little ice and about a 1/4 cup of water. I put alot of spinach or 50/50 blend salad in mine, yummy

The Nutribullet is the best of both worlds because depending what u put in it, it can be particulate or smooth. Also how long you let it run alters that as well. I just love it and use it every day. You will be amazed all the things that can be "juiced"! AND it cleans SO easily (an issue that deterred be often from using my Pro-Juicer).

The only thing the nutribullet has over the vitamix is convenience. The nutribullet will still get the job done but it doesn't hold as much food. One major problem I had with the nutribullet is it started leaking a brown substance from the extractor blade after 3 months of use. I was replacing the blade every 3 months and couldn't get an answer from customer service. I don't know what it was but it was going into the drink. I read you aren't supposed to put ice in it or any hard frozen fruits like strawberries.

I don't have any problem with it. It doesn't have a gummy feel. I really like mine.

Like all juicers, the Juice Bullet does have some waste left over. It is the dry fibrous material of the fruits and veggies and I simply put it in my compost pile. Some machines blend the entire fruit, but that is really a different product.

Well, I had put it into my smoothies in my NB blender, in that way I couldn't tell as it was in with all that good fiber. I might just have to taste it in some water and see what it's like, I will try to update this again soon.

I tried it directly out of the jar just to see what it would taste like and it is a grainy taste and texture. I put about 2 T in my morning smoothie and really don't taste it. It does not have a "honey" like taste.

A little bit of pulp makes it into the juice. It's pretty minor and I just think of it as "fiber." Depends on what you're using, too. Greens with tough stems like kale probably do it a bit more than say, spinach. I compared it to a Breville and the juice quality and amount of product needed to produce the juice was way superior on the Omega. Lots of waste on the Breville and it is WAY more trouble to clean. Hope that helps!

If you are looking for a "juicer" that removes the pulp - this is definitely not it. However, it puree's better than any blender on the market. The ninja does great with making great "snow" style ice, but it leaves unappealing chunks on basic juices. The Blendtec also does an excellent job - but you have less control over the speed. We use our vitamix for tons of things - even wheatgrass added to our fruit/veg juice! It is the best for making hummus. My knowledge on the other 2 blenders is experience from friends & family that use it for the same purposes I do. They are all going to get the vitamix too.

Really? I've found it to be one of the better tasking powders. That having been said, I make a smoothy with a banana, a scoop of Vega, a handful of frozen strawberries, a handful of frozen cherries, and top it up (to the consistency you like) with vanilla almond milk. Give it a good blitz (a Vitamix is capable of breaking it down even further so it's not chalky at all) and voila! Blends right in! Pun intended... :)

Not certain about weight, holding it I would say 8-9lbs. But After I purchased this item, I bought a Magic NutriBullet, a much better buy. The L'Equip is a pain to clean up because you're left with the pulp, which I also think is essential for health. With the Nutribullet you get it all, juice and the pulp! It's an extractor. Don't worry, it blends everything to smoothe texture. If you want a thinner, juice-like consistency just add more liquid such add water,ice or milk(protein). I use mine every 3 days to blend 13-15 fruits and vegetables. Only one easy, simple blade to clean, done! It's a great way to get kids to get their veggies without a fuss. And what you blend is in one of the provided cups with lids. Blend, drink, and store..done! But, though the Nutribullet is smaller, it feels as though it weighs the same. I hope this helps in making your decision.

I don't think the blades and revolutions for blending are high enough to consider my Magic Bullet model a 'juicer.' Having said that, I don't personally use my Magic Bullet as a juicer but I think Magic Bullet does make a juicing model.

I replaced my Nutribullet with the Ninja....and I'm glad I did. It's very powerful, liquefies in seconds. The nutri billet would often leave me with chunks of unprocessed bits of carrot and ice. Very happy with the ninja. And for the price....I believe it's a way better value. Hope this helps :)

Hi, Kaitlyn, the pulp, skin, etc . . . was actually pretty mushy, once all the juice ran into the glass. In fact, a lot of the contents was stuck to the inside of the machine, instead of going into the container. I had the lid on properly, but it didn't seem to transfer all the contents into the bin. Some of the fruit was even stuck on the outside of that tool, used to push it down into the chamber. It was fairly quiet, considering how big this thing is. As for being compact and transportable, I would have to say "No." This thing is huge, and you have to make sure that several parts are securely in place, otherwise, you will get a big mess, when you turn it on.

I didn't have a NutriBullet, but my sister does. My Bella makes quick work of pulverizing flax seeds and everything else, even with the blender blade (not the one for coffee, nuts, etc.), and my sister's NutriBullet leaves them mostly whole. Considering the huge price difference and more powerful motor along with the great reviews, I'd try the Bella.

Hmmm, I'm new to smoothies, brand new in fact-haven't made one yet, so maybe I should get used to smoothies without oatmeal first. I was only here to donate mine. I bought the giant pack by mistake.
