Nothing really special about this over priced blender which is an eye sore on the counter top. Don’t know why the company has not updated the look of these blenders. I was not impressed by it so returned it and got a blender for far less money which is equally good. Customer service was however awesome. My money was refunded promptly.
Pros: Speed of Service, Easy to use

10 years of daily use, still works great. Blades are still sharp in the 64 oz & 32oz containers, and the motor still strong & humming gently. Best blender ever!

Disappointing smoothie performance

I bought this to replace a Hamilton Beach machine that I used to make a daily smoothie. Unfortunately the 5200 does not perform as well as the much lower priced machine it replaced. Certain smoothie recipes that the HB machine handled automatically with its smoothie setting require me to carefully modulate the speed knob and stir the contents by hand, otherwise half the ingredients float unblended while the ingredients near the blades over blends and heat up. Otherwise the 5200 seems to be a powerful and well built machine.
Pros: Durability, Power

I have lost count of how many of these I have bought because I gift them to my married kids, too. However, my original Vita-Mix is 25 years old and still used daily and doing great! My daughter has that one. I bought a reconditioned one quite a few years later and that one is my daily blender and it, too, is doing great. I cannot say enough about this awesome machine. I am so thankful you guys have not compromised quality like so many other companies.
