This product really did improve our lives in many ways. We use it several times a day (smoothies, sauces, soups, nut butters, etc). My 2 year old daughter loves it and has even dabbled in trying green smoothies. Customer service is outstanding as well. Some of the friendliest folks, and most straightforward resolution of issues.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my Vitamix A2500 for around two months now and have used it many times. I've made lots of smoothies, some sauces, tried my hand at peanut butter, and have used it in pureeing. I can say that I am very happy with how it performs. It makes the smoothies smooth and it does a great job of grinding up cashews in a soup base. The only thing I've ever had an issue with is doing ice cream or pureeing lentils. The contents gets real thick and it's hard to keep it moving. I've had it give me an error message after that but I just let it cool down and it's seemed to have worked fine ever since. I bought it mostly to use in my new eating of Nutritarian eating. It is working very well compared to my old Oster brand mixer. That one didn't chop up the spinach as smooth or even the cashews in a soup base. I am very pleased with my purchase and look forward to many years of use from it!

I love the heavy duty machine and the features I chose. It seems to blend everything it says it will, but my ice cubes do not completely get crushed. All other products do so far. I changed my ice settings on the freezer to crushed so that seems to work better. Its clean and sleek. I have made individual smoothies and even though the container is large, it does just fine. I'm waiting for my individual cups. They are supposed to come today. I can't wait to try them. Less water for cleaning :) I'm also anxiously waiting the smaller cup sizes. I have a grandson, now 8 months old and I want to make his food when he visits. I also want to make sauces, dips and dressings in smaller quantities. Hopefully those will be available soon.

This amazing blender is taking chores away from my food processor. Besides making the smoothest smoothies ever, without complaining about chunky items, this makes hummus and pesto better, and easier, than my food processor. Great for gazpacho as well. Can't wait to try hot soups as the weather cools.

I have been wanting a Vitamix for about 10 years but never felt I could justify the price. Well, I finally broke down and bought one (the A2500), and I can very happily say I have no buyer's remorse! I'm thrilled with it so far and have only just begun to explore its capabilities. Just making my own homemade butter from fresh cream in 1 minute is still blowing my mind! I haven't had it long enough to say anything of value regarding reliability, etc., but my sister has had one for 10 years (hence my longing for one), and it is still going as strong as the day she bought it.

Love this for daily smoothies for me and my kids everything comes out so smooth and delicious, I can sneak in extra nutrients which is reassuring as a mom. Can’t wait to try making salsa when my tomatoes come in . Also looking forward to fresh soup!

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.

After six months of thinking about it and researching, I bought a white A2500. It is beautiful, so happy I chose white. I make a smoothie with fruits and vegetables daily and use the preset button. Best part is walking away and knowing that in 50 secs my breakfast smoothie is perfectly made! I also make a lot of nut-based sauces and baked goods, and have been very impressed so far with the results. Basically it has eliminated the need to use my food processor. I recommend checking out the recipe book that comes with the A2500, I've made five of the recipes and they were excellent, especially the soups and the vegan cheese sauce! When people tell you that a Vitamix is a life game-changer, it's actually true!

No it did not go well. I just purchased it 3 months ago for my health issues used it four times and it will not even come on. I started using this machine for my business and now everything is halted. I am VERY disappointed and threw out my old one before purchasing this so I am really inconvenienced. I would like a full refund or another machine overnighted to me. Thank you

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.
