My life has completely changed with this blender. From smoothie bowls, to juices, soups and sauces - we use this beast on the daily. Even though they are quite costly, it is WELL WORTH the investment. As they say, your health is an investment, not an expense - and that’s exactly how I view this blender. Highly recommend!!! :)

Updated to a newer model - last on had the touch screen and I bought it for the preset functions went up in price to get them and went with a reconditioned model to do so. I like the dial much better on the A2500 and now with the app you really don’t need to go up to the next level to get the 5 presets. Takes seconds to pick the program you want on the app. Fabulous addition to the convenience end. Oh and the A2500 is just awesome!

The Vitamix A2500 is an integral part of my kitchen. For years I had a different brand that always left me struggling for a "finished" dish. My A2500 is absolutely incredible, from nut milks and butters, dips, doughs, cakes, baby foods (my grand loves this), desserts and healthy delicious hot soup.

It is very powerful blender, it has settings for smoothies and soups, i use those a’lot and like it a’lot. There is only one downfall, they say its bluetooth ready, but the app cant connect to it and do anything to it, it sees it but does not when connected ln app still shows no connection. So its worthless! Follow directions on what to put first inside the cup, soft stuff first then harder stuff after and add lil water for each smoothie, maybe one full cup, then add ice last, the water will really help with grinding/blending process to blend it to the perfection. If you do that step, there wont be any need for the plastic baton to push the ingredients down toward the blade. I rarely use the baton, only maybe sometimes when theres lots of ice. Its somewhat not that loud, everything gets done within 50 secs usually and its good to go. For soups i will say that adding some hot water to it will help it cook better nd you wont have to wait long 6 mins to get soup done it will be done faster. Also when you make soups, add tortila chips or crackers last 5-10 seconds to make it little chunkier. Always wash it by adding water nd drop of dish soap, and let it blend on high for 5-10seconds take it off an rinse, for smoothies, and for soups do same step but at the end flip the cup upside down nd let it dry like that, so the ingredient smells dont get stuck with it for long nd they air out, like garlic or onion type of smell, even when washed. Have fun with it, you bought it so use it everyday, i know the food or smoothies that i make in it are healthy for me and it will be same for you just keep making stuff with it.

I have finally bought the blender of my dreams. Although I haven't explored all of it's capabilities, I am so impressed with the quality and power of this machine. This blender is pricey, but I'll never need another one!...I've owned so many bad or mediocre blenders. This a real joy!

I bought my vitamix A2500 approx. 2 months ago along with all the attachments. Aside from being a recommended purchase, if space shortage is an issue, you will really enjoy extending the multiple uses of this appliance by purchasing the variety of attachements. It is pricey but, worth it.

I kept telling my wife that the smoothies that the Oster were making were just fine, and she kept complaining they were gritty. After a year and a half I bought her this for Christmas. This makes very smooth smoothies compared to the Oster. I am also able to make 2x as much waffle batter now (so 1 batch instead of 2 smaller batches). However, the best part is not having to wash the blender by hand anymore... Add some fresh water and soap, put it on 90 second smoothie mode, and the thing is washed!!! Okay, I guess I still have to rinse the pitcher and wash the top, but it is much less to do.

I bought this for my wife for Christmas. We had a decent $120 KitchenAid blender that we thought worked well. But this one destroys it. We like technology but more than gadgets, we like the quality and power. We don’t use the zillion programs built in and prefer the standard tactile dials.

I love my Vitamix. So far I’ve made blended frozen fruit(To replace ice cream), smoothies, iced coffee blend, and Hummus. I can’t wait to make soups once the weather cools down. The Vitamix makes everything very smooth. Smoothies have no chunks and have a great texture. The texture of the hummus is better than store bought. It’s also very easy to clean. I use the Vitamix everyday. So far my only complaint would be the lid. It’s not always easy to see if it’s been put on securely before blending.

I have owned a Vitamix for the past 11 years. I recently upgraded to the A2500. I really like the look and feel of the new clear color lid. I also purchased the 48 ounce container, along with the blending bowl starter kit and the blending cups. I do cooking demonstrations and batch cooking. The versatility of this appliance and added attachments makes the Vitamix an appliance that I use every day. I have been using the A2500 for a little over a month and absolutely love it.
