The information about plastics is completely wrong. The only plastic that sometimes has BPA is polycarbonate, which is a number 7 inside the triangle. However, A: 7 means 'other' - lots of other kinds of plastic are also numbered 7. B: there are now a lot of BPA polycarbonate plastics (which are also numbered 7). This means that there are two ways you can know if something is BPA-free. First, if the number in the triangle is 6 or below. Second, if the number is 7 but the manufacturer guarantees that the material is BPA free (and you don't think they're lying). For anyone curious, a 1 is Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which can be stiff if it's thick enough but is more commonly thin and semi-flexible. This is the clear plastic most disposable drink bottles are made of, along with a lot of other things. Manufacturers love it because it's appealing to the eye and cheap. There are some cancer concerns related to it, but I don't know if they've been substantiated. This and polycarbonate are the only two plastics that I'm aware of having any health issues raised about them. 2 is high density polyethylene (HDPE) which is rigid but either cloudy or opaque. 3 is polyvinyl chloride, aka vinyl, very flexible and often semi-transparent. A lot of shampoo bottles, for instance, are made of this. 4 is low density polyethylene (LDPE) which is cloudy or opaque and more flexible than HDPE though less than vinyl. 5 is polypropylene (PP) which is tough, high temperature-resistant, easily made food-safe and generally rigid. It is also cloudy or opaque. 6 is polystyrene, which is what is commonly called styrofoam, although this is actually no longer correct (which is good, because the original styrofoam had a lot health concerns associated with it), but so are some other rigid light-weight plastics. Anything you think of as 'styrofoam' (e.g. disposable hot-liquid cups) is almost guaranteed to be polystyrene, but so are some other rigid light-weight plastics. And, as stated above, 7 means 'other' which includes multiple kinds of plastics/resins, including polycarbonate (with or without Bisphenyl A, aka BPA). All of this information is widely available from reputable sources, online and otherwise. There are plenty of problems with using plastics - considering that they are petroleum-derived products and unlike glass cannot be recycled back to the same grade material they started with (they can only be 'downcycled') - without spreading information.

Would this work well for making blended margaritas? I'm nervous about frequently blending ice.

Let me preface by saying really like my bullet. For the price paid ($40) it's been great. I use it primarily for smoothies but commonly end up with things being a tad less blended (ice leaves a few rounded small chunks) than I would like. If smoothies were all I cared about I would stay with this. I've had it about 6 years and like the ease of quick single serve smoothies. Now I am looking for something new because I have NOT been able to get the nice blended margarita consistency I want (like ice for snow cones). Also, now I'm in a position to spend more money than I had when I purchased this.

I recommend the slap chop for nuts.

Would this work for hummus?

No, it worked for a couple of times for hummus and then the third time I made hummus it broke. And I only had it for less than a year and I didn't use it very often
