    Man I can't believe how simple that was. My mom wanted me to figure out why she couldn't use it and I even ordered a replacement blade thinking that was the issue. Afterwards I noticed the screw in piece at the bottom but I assumed it was part of the blender and that I had the wrong part. This video saved me so much time.

    OMFG... that little piece of!! So glad I didn’t grow away my nutribullet now. It was just sitting in my cupboard collecting dust but today, decided to see if a miracle had happened and my bullet would work again, but nope- still “broken”. Decided to order a new blade, thinking that’d solve it, but having seen your video and finding that piece of lid, I AM SO HAPPY!! Thanks so much! I was trying to figure out what that little kid was a part of too for a while! So excited to be able to use my nutribullet again!

  • @sdbsdb2571
    @sdbsdb2571 7 років тому

    U R my Hero too.
    U saved my NutriBullet and me having to call customer service.
    My problem was the Activators (or the cup) wouldn't go down.
    So glad you mentioned using WD and the "distinction" that the Activators were supposed to go up and down. Before the functionality had been a mystery.
    So I put drops of Dawn liquid soap on them and let it sit. Used a butter knife to get it moving.
    Dawn helped loosen them up. Then I followed it by spraying Grapeseed oil (my substitute for WD). The oil added the piece de La Resistance.
    Then the Activators started moving up & down again.
    I got my NutriBullet back. Good thing too, I already had a cup full ready to be blended.
    Thanks Again

    You really are an angel! I was going crazy this morning and was ready to buy a new Nutribullet. I am so glad I watched your video! Interesting that this has happened to so many people... I asked my husband for help and he wondered why there is a thread on the bottom part of the bullet but not on the top one. Obviously this did not make any sense. Still, we did not recognize this sneaky grey fellow inside. Thank you for posting this video.

    Thank you so much for making this video and tell your fiancé that I said, thank you for allowing you to take the time away from her to do so. I’m getting back to healthy eating again and this was my first smoothie that I’ve made in a few years and wouldn’t you know it I couldn’t get my NutriBullet to work that little piece within the way! Thank you, thank you thank you!🎉🎉🎉

    Thank you for making this video!!!!I was completely baffled as to why my cup wouldn’t go down all the way and I don’t think I ever would have figured this one out. What did we do before UA-cam?!? Again, thank you so much for taking the time to post this I’m sure you saved a lot of smoothies!
