I wanted a blender that could make smoothies easy to drink. Making carrot, beetroot and other hard fruit/veg smoothies were always dreadful to make in my old blender. Always so chunky! Now thanks to the Vitamix blender My smoothies are practically equivalent to juice. Smoothies are healthier because no fruit gets wasted, unlike juicing. I love this blender and I am so happy I invested in this. My skin is almost flawless because of all the healthy smoothies I drink, and my digestion is better .My favorite smoothie is my vitamin C smoothie : - put a bit of orange juice in the blender - a carrot -put a whole unpeeled orange - chunks of apple -chunks of peach -chunks of pineapple - and blend !!!!

I am in awe at the power of this blender. I make smoothies and nice-cream daily and it just powers through with ease, and it is so easy to clean up. I gave up my Breville AND a Ninja for this bad boy. I am so glad I finally bought it. This blender has truly been useful and added to the quality of my life.

I bought this model about two months ago and I am very pleased with it. I have an older version still working, but decided to get a newer one (red color) for my home and take the older one to work. I make a lot of smoothies and now I can even make soups, drinks, and more!
I brougt the 5200 series several months ago it chops up all my vegetables and fruit so fine. I love the way my smoothies taste . I am really enjoying the Vitamix!

My friend has owned a Vitamix for about 10 years and I've had her smoothies, soups and blended beverages. I loved them, but felt the Vitamix was out of my price range. For a while I used a juicer; but eventually got really tired of the time it took to prepare the ingredients and clean the juicer afterward. So I made the investment in the Vitamix and I'm so glad I did. I have a smoothie almost everyday and I absolutely love the ease and convenience of clean-up; this powerful blender makes totally palatable drinks that are practically effortless to prepare. I've also tried a few soup recipes and enjoy them very much. I highly recommend the Vitamix.

My daughter and two daughters-in-law have Vitamixes. One uses hers almost exclusively to make smoothies, while another uses the Vitamix nearly everyday for various reasons, e.g., making hummus, a light sorbet for dessert, soup (!), pesto, etc. I was able to see firsthand how useful it was, and, when I had the opportunity to get an incredible deal, I jumped on it! Because of an injury, I have not been able to use my own yet, but I am nearly better, and looking forward to it. In the meantime, I have read all the literature that came with it, and the Vitamix story in the free cookbook. I will update with pictures and/or video when I have used my own.
