I guess it depends on what you are looking for. We had the Kenwood for ages (paid about £20 for it) but it drove me mad when I had to clean it and I found the spout very clumsy.

We now have the Magic Bullet (there are other similar ones around) it does individual size cups as well as a few other tricks. Can be bought from Woolies or EBay for about £30; there is another thread just on the Bullet. It is brill.

I have read that a hand blender is just as good if you already have one of these

I agree with the hand blender. This is all I use and you have no fiddly spout etc to clean, just the jug and bits.

Tesco do a smoothie maker for £14;99 if you are looking for a basic one,

I use a standard blender - I personally prefer it to using a hand held blender, but that's just my opinion!!
Not sure i'd actually buy a smoothie maker as they seem to be very fiddly to clean, and not as flexible as a blender.
HTH.

currys are selling one for 9.99 ,its a disney one tho

Another vote for a traditional blender, not a hand one. Smoothie makers are a pain to clean.

empire catalogue had a juice maker for 9.99, but they are out of stock why can't they just take the pic off the site when they all go instead of getting my hopes up??

G i found the smoothie maker kept clogging up - if you like "bits" in your smoothies get a blender
