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 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!

I have been wanting one forever. And it does not dissapoint. The only caveat I'd say is the 64 oz low profile jug can't handle smaller sauces. So I bought the 48 oz. Just wish I had known when I bought it. But I'm glad I got the smaller jug as I make a lot of sauces and dressings with raw cashews and use the tamper. I debated between the cups and bowls or smaller jug. After research I can definitively say the smaller jug is well worth it to have both.

We use this fabulous machine every day. There's not much it can't do! We make our own frozen desserts from fresh ingredients now - no more chemical ice cream! Sauces, smoothies, meringues - chopping nuts, mixing batters - and it's so easy to clean!

There is no comparison. This blender is amazing. I used to own a Kitchen Aid blender. I originally purchased the A2300 but exchanged it for the A2500. I make a smoothie every morning for breakfast and sometimes in the afternoon, too. At first I thought I would save money and just use the bluetooth smoothie preset on my phone app, which does work great. However, every time I left my phone in another room, it was a pain. I do realize this is a sign of tremendous privilege, but it was worth the upgrade. Soups also come out smoother than ever.

It was very intimidating at first - and I will say it is loud! But oh so perfect. Cashew cream, smoothies, "nice" cream! I still need to try soups, but this multifunctional blender is a dream come true - and was the perfect gift to myself after the events of 2020!

I bought this to replace my Ninja Blender that finally died after 6 years of daily use. So far I think I like it. My biggest complaint is that I miss having a completely removable blade when I clean it (this is something Ninja does well). Otherwise the power seems much better than the Ninja - I just have to get used to having a non-removable blade down at the bottom vs. a completely removable blade that goes all the way up the pitcher.

Absolutely nothing wrong with this machine; I love the program settings, and it's a breeze to use and clean. I have an issue with textures and lumpy drinks (dry-heave) - now my smoothies are the smoothest consistency I could have imagined. The red unit looks great on the countertop too. Only thing I would improve is having the dial register a subtle 'click' to acknowledge each speed when you turn it, but that's being very picky. The machine and recipe book are worth every penny, the speed, ease and quality of food we've prepared for our growing family have made this a life-changing investment.

This is our second Vitamix. We purchased our first machine approx. 12 yrs. ago and used it almost daily for 10 yrs. When the machine stopped working we purchased a bullet and then our kids purchase a Ninja for us. We used the Ninja for several months, then went back to the bullet and ended up purchasing two other bullets within a 2 yr time until we decided to purchase the new Vitamix. This machine is just what we needed. We are using it daily for our morning breakfast and at age 61 I feel great. Vitamix is the only way to go.

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.
