I bought this to mix my sons food to give to him thru his g tube. It’s does a great job. I now feel more confident that he is getting what his body needs thanks to vitamin! Life saver
I bought this machine with the hopes of having my son eat healthier and get off the 2cal formula he was on. I have only had a month or so and am still learning, but it has been wonderful!
We went through two other brands of smoothie blenders. They did not work overly great. This blender is expensive, but it was well worth it. By the time we spent all of the money on the other blenders that ended up not working, we wished that we would have started with this one.
Pros: Speed of Service, Texture Quality, Easy to use, Versatility, Recipe Enhancement, Power, Other
I only wish we had made this investment sooner! We've been making daily green smoothies, sauces, soups, etc. If you do a daily smoothie, this will pay for itself in no time. Silkiest smoothies you've ever had!

We love it, we have used for several thing, chopping, mixing and most of all for blending foods for my son. I highly recommend it just perfect for all your blending needs.

I saved up for months to buy this Vitamix. I cook every meal from scratch and used my previous blender and food processor at least twice a day. I knew that when both died I wanted to invest in a machine that could last through years of multiple uses each day. My first Vitamix only lasted a few weeks before the variable speed stopped working. It was replaced with a new machine, which I was happy about. But I wasn’t happy to be without a blender for over a week while it was replaced. So far I’ve used it as a chopper, blender, mixer and ice crusher and it’s done well. I love the different features and I’m optimistic that it will be a good investment and last at least 10 years.

I love my Vita-mix, bought my first 6 years ago after coveting my mother-in-laws for years. I knew I would love it but didn't realize how much. I can sauce and soups, make nut milks, and fresh gravies, sups and sauces, and smoothies so my mixer see's a lot of action. I quickly realized that after my children moved out I needed the single serving cups with the small mixer attachment which was an added expense - but really made life simpler once I made the purchase. the Vita-mix doesn't do everything, but it does A LOT!
You will never need another type of blender, and you will only need one or two in your lifetime. It was a big expense for me at the time, however - I make everything from scratch, so the cost savings came quickly in time and quality of product - allowing me to make even more from scratch like nut milks, fruit leathers, vegan cheese and hummus, etc. If you don't cook from scratch, if you don't make your own foods - this blender might be overkill for you, (unless you just have money to spend and like the highest quality things), but for me - it was a MUST.
I still use my original Vita-mix, this purchase was a gift. I have given a Vita mix to each of my children once they had their first child and got serious about the food they eat - it has been well received every time.
