I am so happy that I finally bought a Vitamix. I had been debating for at least 2 years. The blending demolishes whatever I put in it. I'm truly amazed by the motor and blades. I use to taste the pulp, seeds or even chunks using my old blender but not with the Vitamin. Also, its not loud so that's a bonus. Its easy to clean and its fast.

I bought my new Vitamix A2500 to replace my 5200 which I planned to give to a friend. I liked the features mentioned in your overview and the fact that it can not only use the large container but the single serve smoothie and the 8 oz containers as well. I use the single serve containers with the flip top lids on an almost daily basis to start my day with a fruit and veggie drink, and this particular model works much better than the the competition, leaving my breakfast drink with no bits, seeds, or traces of skin from berries. The small cup is perfect for making salad dressings. Thank you for another dynamic product!

Hands-down an amazing blender for smoothies, almond milk, soup, & anything liquid... it always gives perfect results and silky smooth texture. However, for thicker things like hummus, it works okay but requires frequent scraping and stirring to get any sort of consistent result (I think my classic wide-blade food processor worked better for those types of things).

I have had a Vitamix blender for 10 years. I recently upgraded to the A2500 and my son inherited my original which still runs just perfectly. If you have ever used a different blender, which I had the misfortune of having to do for a couple of months, you will realize how well worth the price a Vitamix blender is. The A2500 is great, like the auto setting for smoothie as this is something I do almost every day. Simply, Vitamix is the best and the A2500 is excellent

I couldn’t love this blender more. The self cleaning feature is amazing. The tamper is so perfectly designed. The snap on/off lid is so easy to use. The plastic is durable, the blades are strong and precise. I don’t have any complaints about the way this blender operates. It’s not quiet, but I don’t feel like it is supposed to be. I’ve been able to make cookie dough, soups, smoothies, and fantastic blended drinks. If you’re curious if it’s worth the money, it absolutely has my vote. Their customer service is also phenomenal. Highly recommend!

I think that I have used this everyday since I was lucky enough to receive as a gift. It was a splurge that I was saving for so even more wonderful that I got for Christmas. So far I love it! It is a must kitchen item and has made cooking paleo/vegan recipes so much easier.

So quiet and powerful… love the pre-sets. We had to order the smaller container b/c the included large container was simply too small for day to day batches. I’d rate this a 5 star for product quality, but 4 star for value as it feels like a trick that you’d have to order the smaller container… Something as large as a 60+ oz container feels like it should be in the ad-on category, but perhaps just my opinion and not backed by sales numbers!!

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've been familiar with Vitamix's blenders for a long time, and just received the A2500 as a gift. I decided on this blender over other Vitamix blenders because I was excited about the smart detect technology and the compatibility with the food processor attachment. When the blender arrived, I was shocked at how cheap it looked. Right out of the box there were some nicks on the plastic and the entire base is comprised of plastic pieces that don't seem durable. The see-through container and snap on lid, while I understand it's purpose, seems less durable than the black lids. The tamper is what I was most shocked about as it resembles a bowling pin, hollow and cheaply assembled. I've talked to other Vitamix owners about this and the consensus seems that Vitamix has decreased it's quality over the past few years. I'm glad there is a 10 year warranty. I was honestly hoping for more and wasn't expecting this level of disappointment. Are Vitamix's just gonna get more cheap??

I have not had this machine long but I use it often. It amazes me how smooth things can get using this machine. I love it and would recommend it to anyone who says that their drinks are chunky and just don't turn out well. I make smoothies and soups in this machine. I have not branched out a lot from there yet but there are so many options. I have no regrets about spending the money on this appliance.
