Fantastic blender! I was hesitant like many other people have stated, but I decided to give it a shot since my other blender just broke. I AM NOT DISAPPOINTED! Peanut Butter in 1 min? YES PLEASE! Almond Butter in 2 min? HECK YES! Smooth smoothies? OH MY GAWD! I chose this model because reviews stated that the standard models can be quite loud and shake all over the counter. I am very sensitive to noises, and this is manageable. After speed 8 it gets "loud" but it's nothing near any other blender I've heard. My ONLY gripe so far... is that I can't remove the blade to get a good clean. So, I am left to trust the system of running the hot soapy water for a minute in it. Sometimes I feel this doesn't get it all (I've even tried using ice to get some harder things out of the blender). Thankfully my sink has a strong spray nozzle where I can blast a lot of the peanut butter residue out.

I like the look of this blender. It has a strong motor. I like icy smoothies so I have to use the blender plunger every time I make one. I was hoping that wouldn't be necessary. I really like the pitcher. It's a little heavier than my past blenders but very high quality and a nice spout. I'd like to know if using the plunger for a smoothie is normal.

I have been wanting a Vitamix for the longest time. I finally decided to go for it in November. So glad I did. Being a first time user I decided on the A2500 instead of the A2300 because of the presets. I am glad I did. I like the convenience of just selecting the smoothie option. Greens just disappear into the smoothie and the to go jars are awesome, as are the little jars when you just need to chop a small amount of something. I also bought the Aer Disc which I enjoy as well. Very happy with my blender and I am looking forward to trying more recipes in the future.

My machine arrived about two months ago and I am impressed how smooth the juice made by Vitamix is! I have made juice and smoothie and all work good. It just makes really loud sound and wake everyone up in the morning. It is okay to make juice since it only takes like a minute but if making soup from scratch with the machine, it takes like 5-10 minutes and my family can't stand it(We live in an average sized house but it is still pretty loud) . I still recommend this product to people who would like to drink good juice and smoothies at home.

I bought my Vitamix as a Christmas present to myself and it is well worth the cost. The unbelievable results of blending all the fruits (with seeds and skin), the nuts, veggies, etc into a silky, smooth, delicious drink, smoothie, or hot soup has to be experienced too believe it. What a powerhouse! The features are very user-friendly and non-cumbersome. The digital timer and auto shut-off that controls speed and time length of smoothies, ice cream, and soups takes all the guesswork out and leaves you with perfect results. There is still a manual speed dial that gives you the option to control what you’re making. It also is a self cleaner so you don’t have to touch the blade. The Vitamix A2500 is a beautiful machine that is build to last. That’s why it has a 10 year warranty. Great investment, replaces so many appliances in your kitchen. Thank you.

I've had my machine for about 6 weeks and am amazed at the difference in my smoothies. This machine is able to grind the veggies so fine I no longer have leftover pieces in my mouth to chew. I am still getting used to making ice cream but imagine I'll matter it in time. So far very pleased with my purchase and love how easy it is to clean.

I am highly satisfied with my vitamix experience. I was recommended to purchase a Vitamix by a family member. It was the best decision I could have made. I have made frappe, smoothies, juices. Very pleased with the outcome of each. I will recommend to others.

I bought it because i thought it will be easier to use compare to the manual one turns out that its not sensing the sensor will take 5 min to 10 minutes of turning or pulling in and out before it senses and E10 always come out so have to turn it on and off.

We love it, this was the first time we bought this blender. Debating over other brands, finally after reading the reviews, bought this. Very easy to use, easy to wash and easy to handle. I should not complain but we felt its bit loud while running, maybe its normal for this powerful motor.

I was very hesitant to purchase a blender due to the initial sticker shock, but finally did so without talking to the husband. After receiving it he was so happy with the product he did not care. The Vitamix is used daily in our house for smoothies, homemade nut butters, soups, etc and we always get the best results. Our children who previously did not care for our plant packed smoothies now drink them without batting an eye. The entire family has enjoyed this purchase. With such a nice long warranty the initial price is actually right on par, if not cheaper, than buying a new blender every few years because the other bit the dust. We look forward to many years with this awesome product!
