I purchased this item about 20 years ago, I have made all kinds of great things. I saw a demonstration years ago and learned they now had a small top, I love using it for my smoothies. I did make a mistake and grabbed the wrong tamper for the smaller container and the blades ate the bottom of my tamper. Be very careful and check before inserting that tamper. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have loved mine.
Pros: Speed of Service, Durability, Versatility, Product features, Power
I bought this blender over a year ago and its still working as good as day one. I haven't had any issues blending anything to a puree. Cleaning the product is very easy. Even though you dont need to use a sponge to clean it, I advise running it with soap as instructed but then just quickly take a soft (non abrasive) sponge and wipe the insides or else you will have a cloudy and spotted container. This extra step allows it to be cleaner and easier to spot remaining things in any. Its a solid build. The middle speed knob feels a little light and cheap but It works perfectly fine. Honestly zero complaints. Buy this one if you can!!
If you’ve ever worked in a kitchen then you know this is pretty much industry standard. Puree nearly anything like a dream, this machine does much more than smoothies, I promise you that. Does have that sort of off electrical smell while using, but I’d imagine that’s the smell of new, well oiled gears a-grindin’

I bought my Vitamix with extra dry grind container for me as a reward for making it out if hospital & learning to do everything again after being hit by a speeding car as a pedestrian in 2003. I love it. It immediately replaced over 6 appliances & became literally my right hand go to for smoothies, cream soups, sauces & agua frescas. It's older as we all are & I need to take care not to run it too long or hot. I'm a compounding herbalist, so I use the dry container to make powders for encapsulation to tinctures for optimum absorption. I would love to put THE ONE, in my rental house, but we'll see. If I need to, I feel confident to replace my 5000 with the 5200.
Pros: Texture Quality, Durability, Easy to use, Versatility, Power
I am really loving my Vitamix! I've learned it is important to put smoothie ingredients into the container in the correct order for best blending, but if that requirement is met then it blends perfectly! It is also surprisingly quiet, given the power.
This blender is great for making anything that needs to be smooth and creamy. Sauces, smoothies, salad dressings, you name it. The power of this blender is amazing!
Vitamix is the best. My last one gave me over 30 years. It was still working but I could tell the motor was getting tired. Love my new one and figure it should last the rest of my life!
