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 purchased this unit about 6 weeks ago and I am so glad I finally took the plunge. yes it is one of the more expensive blenders I could have purchased but the quality and variety of uses is worth it! Plus the warranty and the free gift of produce/smoothie options that came with it from another company was sooooooo nice! I would purchase this item again, over and over!

My green smoothies come out perfect every time. I was making them daily in another single serve blender and thought about buying a Vitamix for over a year. So glad I finally did it. I have also used my Vitamix for pancake mix, desserts and a different variety of smoothies. For those of you hesitant on spending the money on one of these, I highly recommend to just do it!! You won't be sorry!

I got this blender recently and I thank God I did. I am so grateful to the inventor. I can eat my moi-moi (beans pudding) and akara (beans cake) anytime I want just because I have this blender.
I knew when i bought a vitamix that it was THE best of the best. but, MAN. It blends anything and everything in no time! anything that gets stuck immediately blends with a little help from the wand! (: I make my thick veggie/fruit loaded smoothie every single morning, no problem. I love love LOVE it...ill never use anything else.

I am so happy with my purchase. Used different blenders but so far this is the most excellent blender I have used since it makes me nice smoothie and blends vegetables perfect. Does not leave any particles while blending baby spinach, spring mix, etc

We purchased our Vitamix many moons ago. We have had to send it back twice for service, which the company completed quickly. Each time the problems were associated with the canister. It's like it was locking up and then putting drag on the motor. We would get this smell and then the motor would overheat. The second time we sent it back they sent us a new canister and it's worked well for almost a year. Well, it started doing it again last night. Also the knob for changing the speeds has also come loose. I have no doubt that I will contact Vitamix and they will make sure everything is right. I'm just a little nervous that we're closing in on the end of our warranty and once it's out of warranty we'll just be out of luck. We love having a Vitamix but I fear we've just gotten a bit of a lemon. We have always followed instructions carefully with our machine.. even babied it a bit because of it's weaknesses. Our friends purchased one right when we did and have never had the issues we've had. I still recommend this machine because it works beautifully. Just not sure about this model. Maybe the 750 is a better choice? Not quite so many issues with the canister.
