Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love this unit to make my smoothies in the morning.

What’s the point if it can’t break down kale? I mean big leafy pieces.

It's not that powerful of a blender for the price.

Ok, for the first vitamix, but wanted something with more power and speed .

My only complaint is the cup. I hate the pour spout. Other than that, i am pleased with it.

Im not a big fan of the vitamix, it shuts off and doesn’t blend thoroughly

It is good but you should not go for this one kitchen aid is better then vitamix kitchen aid has a better quality

This blender doesn't do anything extraordinary for the high price they charge for it. I was expecting a more culinary arts type of machine even though I know it's for smoothies and juice primarily. It's good for someone who wishes not to handle blades as there is nothing inside of it. Very frustrating.

The Vitamix is a very simple blender, . . . and that's not necessarily a bad thing. I was dismayed when I first opened the box and saw how big the base was. It definitely takes up some significant real estate on the counter top. The pitcher looks positively teeny tiny in comparison. My concern ratcheted up a notch when I saw how simple the controls were. A pulse switch, a dial to control speed (with nothing but numbers on it), and an on/off switch. Where are the pre-programmed settings? Where are the built-in timers and calorie counters? What do you mean this won't automatically post my smoothie recipe to Facebook? Then I turned it on. WOW. While not silent by any means, this blender is much quieter than most of the blenders I've used in the past. The noise increased significantly as I cranked up the blend speed, but at the lower settings it was just a dull hum. Despite the relatively quiet operation, the blender did a great job of converting the oranges, pineapple slices, and banana that I tossed in into a breakfast smoothie. Cleaning the blender gave me pause as nothing on the box seemed to indicate if it was dishwasher safe. Ironically, the guidebook's cleaning instructions make it clear that they assume that you'll clean this with a dishwasher. The book did offer a good tip for cleaning it without a dishwasher though: put a little soapy water in the pitcher and run the blender for a bit. It's a simple enough notion, but it honestly never occurred to me. I was all set to cut my hand to ribbons trying to clean the blades with a sponge. Their method makes a lot more sense. It should be noted that the pitcher is all one piece. The blade assembly doesn't appear to be removable, and there is no rubber gasket to worry about cleaning / losing. Overall, the blender is very well constructed and feels solid. My only real gripe is that the pitcher doesn't lock into the base in any way. Instead, it balances atop four posts that only loosely hold it in place. I would not feel comfortable turning this on and walking away from it for more than a minute or two. While very simple and without frills, the Vitamix blender is very well constructed and functions well. I would definitely recommend this blender to a friend.

No power, disappointed about the higher end model Are use it every day anyways because I have to

Had a lot of trouble with smoothies in the morning. Tampering every few seconds, motor would get stuck quite often. Kitchen aid mixer was this ones replacement. Kitchen aid model is far superior.

Hoped I would shown options. Would have been good to know.

This machine give off an odor when in use. Which also affects the taste of your blended drink. I would like to return this one for another one I like vitamin machine’s

I thought getting a Vitamix would be the most amazing blender I've ever tried. I'm honestly not that impressed. I'd save your money and get something without the "name brand" because nothing has jumped out as special with this.

Average blender and way over priced. Do yourself a favor and buy a Ninja. Not worth the $$$

I love it. I’m able to make more smoothies at a time

Great product. Excellent buying experience at best buy.

I returned it after a year. This blender would could not break down ice

Never got the product and they would help me to resolve the issue

This item works great.blends up leafy vegetables and ice very well.
