D. Waterworth: This is the third vitamix we've bought in 30 years. (The last one was given to our daughter so he could get a new one). My hubby makes daily smoothies as well as other recipes. Holds up well.

Amazon Customer: Je l'utilise depuis plusieurs mois et j'en suis très satisfaite car elle est beaucoup plus puissante que ce que j'avais dans le passé. Je peux mélanger même des soupes chaudes ce qui est normalement interdit avec les mélangeurs que j'avais qui ont tous fini par se briser. Je compte sur la robustesse de ce mélangeur et qu'il saura me durer longtemps.

Tash: Can blend guacamole with no water. First time I’ve ever not needed to add water to a blender to make guacamole. Worth the investment.

Doze: Was nervous to spend so much on a small kitchen appliance but boy was it worth it. Used every day for smoothies salad dressings, sorbet, etc... really so much you can do with it. The big caveat however is that you’ll likely need to purchase the 48 oz blender in addition if you’re making for 1-2 people. Otherwise you need a fairly large amount of ingredients to blend so you’ll end up wasting food. Also bought the small containers for things like nuts as well. That being said the machine is great and used at least once a day in my house, sometimes twice or more. Big fan and it beats other blenders by far. It’s something you don’t know you need until you have it. The 64 oz container definitely works for most things, it just needs a greater quantity to blend which equals more food over time if you're cooking for 1-2. 100% recommend but you're probably going to need to cough up more money for some smaller containers if you're not always blending in larger quantities (3-4+ people). Adapters are great tho once you get them.

raquel: This blender is awesome, by no doubt the best blender ever. I've used Nutribullet and Ninja for about 10 years, they are both good, but Vitamix performance surpasses them all. Vitamix makes the smoothest smoothies, it's easy to operate, does not cause splashes, and it's faster. I love the 64 ounces jar because I can make my day's smoothie in one go and faster. I haven't experienced any of those problems I read about in the reviews such as the ingredients just floating without blending in the large jar, probably because I like making my smoothies in large quantities, hence the big jar is a blessing for me.

Randy: I am not going to go into the specs as they are already listed. Simply put this is a blender that can do just about anything you want. Key features which sold us on this are as follows. As with all my reviews, I will update this should it develop any issues with ongoing use. Expensive but with everything.... You get what you pay for,

-Quality-Durability.
-Size. Fits under our counters and looks professional on our countertop.
-Blending abilities. We blend smoothies and can thrown in whole cut up apples-seeds and all. Smoothie is silky and those parts of foods you usually do not blend remain giving you even further nutrients.
-Has our basic common presets for no fuss.
-Has great technology built into it. It has an app, wireless connectivity so you do not need to adjust settings when you use other self detect containers.
-Has timer. This is a gem! Once you find your perfect mix, you no longer have to guess at timing or anything.
-Note the cord is 4 foot which is a great length. Not too long and not too short like some. Make sure you use this on a dedicated outlet. It draws 12 amps and a typical home outlet is 15 amps for older homes or 20 amps for newer...

KS: Update after 10 months
What an amazing machine and a company behind it. I noticed a crack on my jug and called Vitamix. To my surprise, they simply sent me a replacement. No questions, no bickering. A very customer centric approach to ensure satisfaction. The rep also told me how much warranty I have left (9 whole years). After this experience, if Vitamix decided to double their price, I would still recommend them. Goes to show that North America can still produce fine quality products while remaining true to their values. Kudos to the entire company.

Super awesome product. I have only used it for two weeks but it is in a category of its own. No other blenders can come close to the quality which this product offers. Expensive but worth every penny.

Chaitanya H. Patel: First and foremost this blender is nothing short of AMAZING! It seriously blew my mind. I don’t know about you but product hype often times ruines it for me. I get so excited about a product and then it falls short and doesn’t meet my high expectations. I assure you, that will not happen with this Vitamix!

My previous blender was a Nutri bullet and the Vitamix puts it to shame! Before, I had no idea I could blend pomegranate seeds and black berry seeds into a smoothie without a grainy texture. I thought that just came with using fresh fruit, but nope, that’s simply not true—you just need a good blender. It completely pulverizes any and everything I’ve added into a beautifully smooth liquid. I can finally add celery to my juices without having to miserably choke it down. For high fiber fruits/veggies I suggest running the Vitamix on 2 preset smoothie cycles to further break down the fiber and produce silky smooth results.

There are several complaints about not being able to make smaller portioned smoothies. I have had 0 trouble making 16 oz smoothies for myself, but for me that’s a single serving smoothie/juice. I think the trick is to add more liquid to a...

DYVY: We've had the older series of this for about 7 years, used it daily until it was finally ready for an upgrade. We choose this option again as we use the smoothie button and the frozen deserts button.

We've always received excellent service from Vitamix in the past so, continuing to enjoy our blender.

We did try the model without the preset buttons but really missed our buttons.

New feature: It is a larger jug then before, which we like for our family smoothie time but when making for one person the ingredients splash around too much and don't always get a smooth texture. I liked the longer jug better.

Overall, happy about the upgrade. We always keep in on the counter as it's used daily so, no issues with storage.
