I am very tempted.
Currently making smoothies using my hand held blender which is fine for soft fruit and I can get away with kale if I add it in small batches but still...

I am tempted because I do love a gadget and am probably quite partial to a craze.
But I prefer chomping to slurping and drinking is so much faster than eating... I probably wouldn't use it enough to justify the price. Would be good for the dog's Green Stuff thoguh.

I also have the Kenwood Smoothie 2 Go (300W) and it does the job I need perfectly. I usually make smoothies with spinach, avocado, pear/apple and frozen berries, water or coconut water, sometimes whack in a bit of linseed, and frankly any fruit that's getting to its end days. The combination of green veg and red/purple berries in general makes it look disgusting but it tastes good!

One nutribullet acquired plus a trip to aldi(melon, mango, bananas, seeds, limes, strawberries, spinach, watercress, avocados). Only problem is my tiny kitchen is a disaster zone since no boiler, backed up dishes & functioning as a makeshift office since I've already moved half my furniture out the house. Instead of a healthy nutrient packed smoothie for dinner I've had half a pack of aldi pringles and a glass of sangria. There is no hope

I've only had mine a few weeks...but love it.
Breakfast is a green one..spinach/ Apple/ avocado etc. I can't get on with almond milk, so I might use fizzy water or half orange juice half water. Always put a few mint sprigs in..or maybe a little piece of lemon for zing.
After work is a treat one..frozen fruit of forest and milk..and amaretti 😀😀

Pop some of the fruit in with the sangria and blend it .
Probably not the spinach, though.
