FranzKitchen Magic Bullet On The Go Mug with Flip Top Travel Lid

7 months ago I got a Magic Bullet Deluxe set as a gift. I believe it is a Magic Bullet set plus a few extra accessories. It is a legitimate Homeland Housewares product. It comes with two “Bullet-On-The-Go Mugs” and two “Flip Top Lids”. I broke one of the mug handles (by dropping it from high up when it was full of smoothie), and so got this item as a replacement. It was shipped from and sold by amazingearth. I will now compare the original mug to this item.MugThis item’s plastic seems to be more clear, but that might be because my original mug has been used heavily for months. All of the wording stamped into the plastic on the bottom is identical, including the patent numbers, but the fonts are different. The original mug has a “MAX” line on two sides, while this item only has one. My original mug has a 6 digit part number stamped on a ridge near the top, while this mug has a single digit. This item’s handle is a couple millimeters lower than the original’s, but otherwise all dimensions are the same.The threading appears to be completely different. The threads on my original mug go around three times, stopping on the “back” (if you are holding the handle with your right hand). This mug’s threads start in the back, go around two and a half times, and end in the front. The thread thickness and threads per inch appear to be different, but I’m not sure.LidThe lids seem to have identical plastic and rubber mouth hole and vent stoppers. The writing stamped into the plastic is the same, even the part numbers, though the fonts are different. The rubber gasket in my original lid is white, while in this lid it’s black.The threads are different again. My original lid’s thread starts at the front and seems to end beyond the gasket. This lid’s thread starts a little toward the back from the left side and also seems to end beyond the gasket.TogetherWhen I screw my original lid onto my original mug, it starts getting tight at the front (with the handle to the right), and is very tight at 45 degrees more to the left (counter clockwise). This means that when drinking, the handle is halfway between to the right and to the back.When I screw this lid onto this mug, it starts getting tight when the mouth hole is 45 degrees to the left (counter clockwise) of the handle, and is very tight another 22.5 degrees to the left (1/16 turn). This means that when drinking, the handle is just a little bit (22.5 degrees) toward the front from the right side.CompatibilityThis mug fits into my Magic Bullet Deluxe Cross Blade and High-Torque Power Base just fine. When I put this lid onto my original mug, the handle ends up just a little to the right of back. And when I put my original lid onto this mug, the handle is just a little to the right of the front. In all cases, a tight seal is achieved.ConclusionsCompared to the original mug and lid, this pair is almost as good. The plastics are rubbers are high quality. When putting the lid on, if you tighten it enough, the handle really isn’t in the way while drinking. and even if you don’t tighten it as much, the handle is still far enough to the side that it does not become awkward.

Easy to use, bigger than I need, and my aging Magic Bullet just isn't my favorite way to make smoothies. I bought it thinking I could use it for making hot Crio Bru, but it's tough to get any device (maybe the VitaMix would work better) to handle the agitation of the hot beverage without expanding in a very messy way! It works for incorporating MCT oil and powders into cold beverages.

I bought this for my husband because he's bigger than me LOL. I tried it once and loved it so much that I needed my own. He doesn't play well in the sand box on sharing. We use the cap from our magic bullet because we drink our smoothies so fast that the lid would slow us down. It is just the right size for the both of us. If you'd like to take it with you than it would be perfect.

We have bought a four or five of these and love them! The cups the Magic Bullet comes with are just too small for us. I only make smoothies in these and fill them up to the very top with no issues ever. We did have one cup have one of it's tabs break off, making it no longer usable, but that was after a couple years of very heavy use- I've had the original cups last less time.

I mix smoothies for breakfast and I am on the go, so this item has help my routine become fuss free on finding a cup that doesn't spill even after I threw it in my bag on it's side. The smoothie was still in the cup when I got to work, and not in the bottom of my bag. Great product. Oh, you can remove the white seal ring to clean it too. Just make sure you put it back the right way. :-)

The on the Go mug is very handy and useful. I use it everyday for work and home or gym.The best part is you dont need separate mug to make your smoothie or shake. Use the same mug and just replace the lid and you are ready to take the mug with you!!!!

Much better to use then the smaller cups. Love the lid for traveling. I blend my shake in the morning and am able to get out the door and drink my shake on the road. No spills.

i bought this cup because i wanted a travel lid for my magic bullet cup to take my smoothies with me during my morning commute to work. the cup is a lot bigger than the big mugs that come with the magic bullet. i can fit a whole banana, tons of frozen berries, and almond milk in this cup and get a rather filling smoothie. need to buy several more of these cups, especially since they aren't very expensive!
