is it any good if some one has already used similar thing

Thats a good price, got one last week from Tesco's online for £34 or so delivered (thought that was a good price as previously the cheapest we could find it was for £45), have had a play with it and not dissapointed with it so far - particularly the juicer which is centrifugal, have been surprised by how much juice is obtained.

is it noisey?

Dingdangdoforme

Reasonably noisy, sort of food mixer/hand blender levels, then it only requires running for a few seconds to juice the fruit.

Has anyone seen this in the Notts area?

It's just what I'm looking for as I couldn't decide on a juicer or smoothie maker!

We had a similar one and used it about 4 times! Far too much faffing with cleaning etc.

Tried two Sainsbury's in the area this evening for this Smoothie Bar and unsuccessful, none on the shelves or any signs of tickets with empty spaces on the shelves either. My guess it may have just been a single store clearance, anyone else had any luck?

Ended up getting one of these Kenwoods from Comet in the end, my wife has been wanting one for a while and they had the price up for it wrong on the shelf at £39.99, scanned at the till at £49.99, guy obviously honoured the £39.99 price, so a sort of bargain...nowhere near as cheap as that elusive Sainsbury deal though.

The larger sainsburys stock more electrical goods+TV's etc which might explain why its only been mentioned in one store (so far)

Just got one from the Hull store but it was £24.99 , still cheaper than Argos.
One left on the shelf but no price ticket had to get a member of staff to check the price.

We tried regents road and denton none there.

Can anyone who owns a smoothie bar comment on how well the crush ice? Just about all blenders & smoothie makers say they can crush ice, but in reality most just swill the ice around a bit, chipping it a little & the result is pea size (rock hard) ice balls!

I was going to buy a blender but this might be better...certainly it has a fairly powerful motor (600w).

Any comments from blender/smoothie experts?
