@Moose can you tell us anything about the packaging? Being refurbished I can only assume it's pretty basic. But would be good to know if giving this as a gift!
@studerc Refurb can be fine if it is backed up by solid folks. But, I'm not so sure I'd give a refurb item as a gift - especially since the receiver could be left to test that support. Unless you're trying to send a message.
@RedOak i totally get that. Luckily the person im looking at getting this for is even more frugal than myself. If i spent full retail for them they would be upset. This is perfect.
already ordered the ninja blender. but then i saw all this other cool shit you threw in. $24 for 4 16 oz portable cups is actually pretty reasonable. getting a blender on top of it is a good deal. you just made yourself a sale.
Best comparable prices. Groupon for $40 (but not available yet, whatever that means) and some other random site I've never heard of selling for $44 shipped.
Tempting, but I'm still holding out for one of those manual spin-chopper things with the pull cords. A friend of mine had a fancy german one. It was amazing. And you never had to worry about the motor burning out (or some other electrical problem), and it's easy to clean without worrying once again about electronic bits.
I feel like for 10 bucks more than the hamalton beach special (plastic plastic plastic, with paper blades) this isnt so bad. Smoothies? Salsa? Soup? Brain stew?
The light weight of the containers convinced me. Heavy glass blender jars and my tile floor are a disastrous combination. My irrational-peaceful-corsair image search was very pleasant. Maybe the order generator has decided to be nice to me.

Is this for blended families ?
@AttyVette I have been so chopping at the bit for a deal like this, I can't keep a lid on it.
@AttyVette I've heard it gets mixed reviews.
@jaremelz - I might just give it a whirl anyway.
@AttyVette
The blended families I've tried come out very well. It doesn't evenly chop them up sometimes, as if there's a dead zone around the blade.
@KDemo Like this?
@jaremelz noooooooooooooooo
@Thumperchick Sorry! Just thought I'd give it a whirl.
@jaremelz - Alert: Tiny Tub Mummy Protection Agency has been notified.
Let's mix it up tonight on this deal
But will it blend?

@studerc White box with color label. Could be better, but could be worse!
@Moose sounds pretty mediocre to me. It's perfect! Thanks guy.
@Moose so you're saying its "meh", eh?

I have this. It blends stuff. Be careful putting ice in it, though. The blades aren't all that strong.
@peaceetc If it can't make Margaritas, it can't make me happy.
Having said that, I think I just uncovered my personal life philosophy.
@MehAmphetamine This thing can make margaritas all day long. Now frozen margaritas may cause early retirement.
Mehness

@boygenius1991 I'm considering it mainly for the cups... I'm lazy.
@boygenius1991 a fair point. But I'd prefer 4 of the big Bubbas at that same price if the tumblers are the objective.
Glen says this deal the Glenanator is the "Last Straw " for him.. Oh meh oh meh
Have not had much luck with Cuisenart products other than my food processor

So. True.
That's not a Radioactive Cylinder. These are radioactive cylinders! (I love my job.)
