This blender is a game changer for smoothies and all kinds of sauces and soups. Especially having switched to plant-based eating a year ago, it's so helpful to have this tool to make super creamy cashew sauces and dressings.

I love my new Vitamix! It blends so much more smoothly than my previous blender, plus I can make more at one time. I have only used it for smoothies so far. I like the classic, tall cup, but if you have a shallow or small sink, it could be cumbersome to rinse out. Also, it's not as quiet as I thought it'd be, but it works so well, I don't care.

I did a lot of research of blenders before choosing the 5200 model. Every review was the same, it is an excellent overall blender. I even saw it used on some popular cooking shows. After purchasing it and using it for a month I have to agree, it works excellent! It does everything I need. I wondered how it would work without a pulse feature and it works just fine using the low/high adjustable features. When making my shakes it pulverizes the hard vegetables to a very smooth consistency in a very short time. It’s not overly noisy, it’s stable on the countertop with no vibrations. It’s everything I wanted and I highly rate it and recommend the Vitamix 5200 to everyone!

I purchased a certified reconditioned 5200 about 12 years ago and it's still going strong! It easily handles smoothies, hot soups, dressings, dips, chopping raw cauliflower to make "rice," and just about anything you might need to blend, mix, or chop! I am so glad I purchased it and will be looking to add one of the new shorter containers soon for smaller tasks :)

Absolute best on the market!! This was a replacement for my first one so there was a couple weeks without a Vitamix and it was an awful smoothie couple of weeks!! Our backup was terrible compared to our Vitamix! I will ALWAYS have a Vitamix!
