Lifestyle dependent

I owned a vitamix briefly. It was brilliant for blending and achieving amazing creamy texture. If you are the type who drinks lots of smoothies, then this is for you. I don’t find it particularly helpful as an extremely expensive blender. I upgraded to a thermomix and was much happier due to the heating, weighing, cooking, steaming functions.

Powerfull blender

published

Are you satisfied with your machine's blending ability?
YES

Think about the consistency of the end result, or how it handles solids vs liquids?
Super smooth result, feels like drinking water

Is your blender reliable or well-built?
YES

You may also wish to discuss storage, noise level, ease of use, and extra settings or features.
Very easy to use, but a bit noisy.

A beast

This thing will handle everything you throw at it. I mean we tried it all from full oranges to Apple's to ice to peaches to plums to lemons and it just ate thethem up. It sure is noisy though but I think you have to deal with that right. Great buying if you can afford

Top quality will last a lifetime.

Great blender, have used it for years and never been disappointed, For healthy eating this is great. We use up fruit and veg mix before it goes off by making healthy smoothies. yes this is a very expensive unit however it is top quality and will last a lifetime.

Frankly I’m not convinced it’s worth the money

published

This is a big blender and frankly I expected more.i find it seems to struggle with my morning smoothies. These are only a couple of ice cube fruit, often bananas and spinach and some milk.
I often have to stop it and reorganise the contents.
It’s pretty noisy too.
The size and appearance are impressive but not sure it’s worth the hefty price tag!

Works well but very noisy

published

We purchased Vitamix Total Nutrition Centre together with an extra dry jar to grind nuts and seeds. It is a very powerful blender and we have used it extensively. Great for blending soups and making large qualitites of smoothies and shakes. The only issue is it is very noisy.

Didn't use to potential

published

Very solid blender, able to blend fruit smoothies by only chopping the fruit in large pieces and also frozen fruit.
Very handy to quickly make smoothies and juices but it also has potential to cook foods, tried once with a pumpkin soup, was terrible..

It is not the cheapest you can find in the market but trust me this is the one you want to get! It’s so powerful that it can make anything into fine purée.

My Vitamix.

published

I am still learning that my Vitamix does everything. I love it for smoothies, ice cream making, I make hot soups and so much more. I really know now that you don't need all the other things to run a house. It is a bit expensive, but well worth the money.

Use daily, love it.

100% satisfied with my Vitamix. It will blend anything perfectly. I make smoothies daily.
Very reliable and sturdy, doesn't rattle around when switched on.
Also I find it's a great size, doesn't take up too much room on the counter.

Perfect purchase

published

This is the best blender available
Even the most fibrous foods are blended to perfection.
Absolutely cannot do without this it’s a family favourite for all types of smoothies & dips.
It’s certainly well built and stable even on the highest speed although it is quite loud.
Due to height I like to leave it set upon the bench as it’s annoying to have to store.
The extra things you can do with this appliance is endless & I have many things to still explore but am extremely happy with this appliance :))

Great blender but expensive

Love the blender but not sure it’s worth the price tag. Haven’t used the warm soup function much which was of interest to me when I made the purchase. Pulverises well

Great for smoothie bowls!

published

I love this product! Although I haven't worked put it's full range of use (hot soups anyone?), ice used it time and time again for smoothie's and acai bowls.

With various settings, I've worked out how to get the exact consistency im after in a flash, with nothing left unprocessed.

Easy to prepare, easy to clean, easy to use and store.

My vitamix stopped working, what can i do?

I have been following Vitamix recipes but am struggling to get same results? My husband attempted to blend a sambal last night and he ended up getting out an old cheap blender (Russell Hobbs) to finish the job. I've also struggled with blending pesto. I had to continually stop the machine and spoon the mixture around. again I got frustrated and gave up after 4 attempts. what are we doing wrong? smoothies no drama, but even ice cream has been tricky. I've had the machine for a month and I'm seriously thinking to take it back because I just don't want great smoothies :(

Would this be capable of mincing cubed chicken? If I purchase a secondhand blender ( unwanted gift ) still brand new in the box, I’m guessing I’m getting no warranty with it ?
