It is extremely powerful and I love how many things I can make in it. Making peanut butter, to bliss balls and smoothies. Frozen fruit gets blended in seconds. Best purchase I have made

Best purchase ever!

published

Really amazing blender, can blitz pretty much anything. It can be a bit noisey with the powerful motor but apart from that I’ve never had any other issue with it. Bought it at good guys for $800 and it has been the best purchase ever

You can't go wrong with Vitamix blenders!

published

6 years and it does an immaculate job! Blends even with such ease avocado pits (apparently full of vitamins and minerals)!
I had many blenders before I dared to spend the big buck on Vitamix- worth every cent, due to its superior performance, power, longevity, and quality of materials!

Purchased in October 2021 for $800.00.

A household essential!

I’ve gone through many blenders in the past and this one is by far my favourite. I tend to make a lot of banana ice cream (blend frozen banana) and my vitamix does the job. Plus it’s easy to wash

The Must Have One

It is very powerful and blend things quickly. My family and I love the fresh smoothies in the morning.It makes a great beginning for a day! The only bad thing about this blender is it makes loud noise.

Great for green smoothies

published

I love my green smoothies and if you love a silky smooth smoothie you will too. It doesn’t matter what ingredients you add the result is always the same velvety with no lumps or fibrous bits. I do find it to be quite noisy though so making a smoothie early in the morning is out of the question. I did enquire if my product was faulty after I bought it because the selling point was it was quiet but was told to expect a little noise. It is an expensive purchase but well worth it if you will use it. I had a ninja before and it isn’t even in the same ball park but after a year I had proven to myself and my husband I would use it everyday if we bought one ; do we did. Great buy 100% recommend it.

I'm pretty sure this blender can blend your blender.

published

We make our own almond milk and have learned that you need a professional blender to do the job right.
Most blender turn the almond into chunky soup but this unit turns them into a very fine pulp.
You can make "nice"cream as well as hot soups.
Very easy to clean.
My mother has owned a vitamix for five years and it is still as good as new.
Highly recommend this blender even though it is so pricy.

Best Kitchen Gadget

published

Best mixie i have had to make juice and soups. dont loose any fiber from the fruits and also the soups are well blended. the blender is well built but find it bit bit difficult to store in the fridge . The negative part is the size of the blender is too big and also it makes a hell lot of noise.

Date PurchasedJun 2014

Hi Alison! Thanks for the great review. We're happy to have you on Team Vitamix. Happy blending!


I would be lost with out my Vitamix

published

What can I say about a blender that does it all?? The speed, precision and ability to blend to perfection. I blend everything from coffee beans to making quinoa flour. I purchased the blender specifically to make blended meals for my daughter who is on a feeding tube. She gets healthy nutritious meals blended smoothly and without lumps. I now use it for everything making soups, sauces and flour. I couldn't live without it!!!

I purchased the Vitamix just over two weeks ago so that I could have all the nutrients, vitamins,calcium, protein and fibre in both raw fruit and vegetables, greek yoghurt, tofu, wholefood superseeds and honey in smoothies that would be easily digestible. Not only are they delicious but ultra smooth and it has given me a newfound energy. Next on the agenda is soup and I am sure that too will be a huge success.

I burnt my vitamin 500 series container.. I was grinding buckwheat.. it got a hole and the blade part came out ... where can I get it's container part for replacement ? Someone plz send me a link .. very worried :(

Rajina. The Vitamix 500 has 2 plastic containers each with their own blade, one for smoothies, soups, desserts etc where liquids are used, and another container for dry goods such as nuts, seeds and grains. Don't know where you live, but Essential Ingredient, who have outlets all over the country have Vitamix products and are able to order parts or replacements or can advise where to obtain these.

I bought it from Harvey Norman in Sydney and I was only given one 2 ltr container with four blades ... and when I called them yesterday they said they just sell them ... don't sell replacement parts.

I still have the warranty left ... hope it covers it up !


Pam

Pamasked

Why doesn't the vitamix flow freely while making ice cream just makes loud noises doesn't mix well even using the tamper?

2 answers
Anne
Anne

Pam, I don't understand why you need to use the tamper. That is only used for light vegetables like spinach etc that need to be pushed down to combine with other ingredients. I haven't made ice cream yet but I have made a chocolate mousse which was really delicious. The Vitamix does make a loud noise because of its powerful motor and is used mostly by restaurants and cafes.
Check list:
* Ingredients must go into the blender in the order stated in the recipe and don't forget the icecubes.
* If using a lot of dry ingredients add liquid like milk or cream, particularly if using fresh fruit (and make sure this is chopped.)

This may be a solution. If not, perhaps you may need to speak to the supplier or manufacturer.
- Try the "pulse" button, with all ingredients except icecubes, to combine ingredients prior to switching to the "frozen desserts" setting.

Hope this works Pam.

Hi Pam,

Thank you kindly for your question, it's great to be able to help not only yourself, but the wider Vitamix community.

Can I ask which machine you are using? There are a number of different ways to effectively make ice-cream, but it does depend on the type of blender, as well as the ingredients you are using.

Thank you Pam for your advice, you have shared some very helpful tips! The tamper can actually be used to make ice-cream, it helps to push the ingredients into the blades.

If you can't seem to get the right consistency, I recommend slowly adding a cup of ice-cubes to firm it up. Check out some of our best ice cream recipes here: https://www.vitamix.com.au/browse/s_ice+cream/

Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.

Warm regards,
VM
