I've had my A2500 for a couple of years now and felt it had enough bells and whistles. However, now that I've had a chance to get great use out of it I am ready to upgrade to the version that also has the self-cleaning mode. Standing in front of the A2500 for a full couple minutes to go through the cleaning cycle is a hassle b/c you can't multi-task as you have to keep track of the every 6 seconds cycle.

I had a well known brand blender and was very disappointed! I did not want to spend $$$ on Vitamix and I regretted it. I should have bought Vitamix instead. The one I had broke down the first time I used it to make peanut butter. So I bought an A2500 series and it's an excellent blender. It's powerful and do just about anything. Now I have it on the counter top and I use it all the time. So do not make the same mistake I did, if you want an excellent blender then go for Vitamix!!! Thank you:)

I have the S series and I love it for its personal usage however, there are t8mes I need to blend a lot of things when I have company. If Vitamix would create both the 48oz and 64oz container for the sis series this would be great. Customers would be able to enjoy the 40 oz for personal usage and purchase a bigger container for family and friends separately. Trust me it beats having to purchase a ninja or any other blender to fulfill these needs. Vitamix is great and I don’t mind having the parts. It would be my everything machine. Thanks!

I bought this for my daughter as my first grandson started eating solid food. I was surprised how much quieter is was than mine. Looks great in her modern kitchen. Was it wrong that I was tempted to give her my Explorian from 2016 and I keep the latest VM? Very sleek looking. Makes baby food prep to crushing nuts for vegan loafs a lot easier and faster,

We had been relying on Magic Bullets and Nutribullet for the last ten years. This past year or so I found myself using them 2-3 times a day and was always so grossed out with how hard they were to clean! This blender is SO easy to keep clean that I use it ALL the time! I love that I’m able to truly hide vegetables in my kids food to make sure they are getting a little more nutrition in their diet too. Since getting it a couple weeks ago I have already used it daily, sometimes each meal for something!

I bought a vitamix machine a year ago and have been using it more than twice a week so far. I make green smoothie mainly for me and strawberry smoothie for kids. Compared to previous machines, it can be made very smoothly and quickly. The sound is powerful, but as I use it, I get used to it and I am very satisfied with it so far.

I've had my Ascent blender for a few years now. I don't use it daily but pretty close. It took me a long time to invest in a Vitamix and it was worth it. It is truly a powerful machine that I don't worry about beating up too much (lost many a blender to daily smoothies). I love that it is so versatile! I got the stainless steel 48 oz. container to reduce my plastic consumption and very happy with the results.

I've been a Vitamix customer for years..got the new 2500 series...More QUIET,EASIER to operate and...LOVE the ALL CLEAR container and lid!!☺ Try making Peanut Butter...AMAZINGLY SMOOTH,CREAMY...my little dog LOVES his new treat TOO!!☺ FRESH tomatoe soup is so yummy....y'all ENJOY your VITAMIX....I AM!!!! HAPPY HEALTH!!

I just received my Vitamix last Thursday & set it up on Monday after buying all my fruits and so on to make a smoothie. After putting all of my ingredients in the pitcher I put it on the smoothie preset. It began working and after a couple of seconds it jumped and got extremely loud. I turned it off immediately and removed all of the contents. I washed it and dried it and put it away. On Tuesday morning I decided to give it another try. I put in my soy milk, yogurt and berries. I set it on smoothie and it began blending and as it worked for about three seconds it got louder and louder. I turned it off and decided to use the settings between 1-3. I didn’t take it up to ten. It worked fine. It was loud but not as loud as when you use the smoothie settings. As much as I love the idea of having a Vitamix blender, I don’t think that I will keep it. I spent a lot to have a quality blender and I certainly didn’t pay to have a blender jump up and get louder after a couple of seconds. It’s sounds horrible as if it’s going to explode. The sound frightened my dogs as it did me. I don’t know if this is normal for this blender or if anyone else has experienced this too. I just don’t think it’s worth keeping.

I have had my Vitamix for bout almost 6 month and love it. I didn't want to spend that much on a blender but I had several blender that did not do half of what the Vitamix do. got tired of buying blenders. I use this blender almost everyday and still going strong ]. I also love that it have a 10 year warranty if anything happen.
