My wife absolutely loves this blender. This replaced our old Ninja. It has truly increased our horizons on what a Mixer can be used for. We made soups, smoothies, emulsions and plan on making full use of it as a resource during canning season.
Pros: Programability, Texture Quality, Durability, Easy to use, Versatility, Recipe Enhancement, Product features, Power

After only a few weeks of use and ownership the motor is making a horrible loud sound. Took my last vitamix years to do that. Haven’t found the contact info to reach Vitamix yet but plan to.
Jug is good size and easier to clean. Quieter than my last model.
Pros: Other

After almost 50 years with my Vita-Mix Super 3600, it was time for a new one. I could not be happier with its replacement. The Ascent X5 is a wonder. The ability to use the automatic recipe programs as well as the self-cleaning feature are a delight. I have been amazed at its ability to turn out perfect results over and over again without even needing to monitor it, as it changes speed automatically. This machine is very highly recommended!

The possibilities are endless

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such an amazing device, the base is very heavy duty & seems professional grade. There is a self cleaning option which you don’t see on many blenders. The ability to make so many different things is a huge selling point.

The most incredible blender I have ever used
on September 20, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You're only 45 seconds away from the perfect smoothie.
Upon opening the box for this product. I immediately noticed that it was very well made. The plastic of the canister is double the thickness of my old blender. The lid has a rubber gasket to seal it to the canister and 2 clipping mechanisms to make sure the lid is secure. The motor base is very heavy. I assembled the tamper holder to the side of the blender and followed the quick start directions to make a smoothie using ingredients I already had on hand.
I pressed the menu button, and the first option on the digital display was the smoothie function. I pressed play, and a 45-second timer counted down as the motor went through 3 speed settings to blend my smoothie. I did have to use the tamper because I put my frozen fruit in as the 2nd ingredient instead of the last as the instructions stated, but it blended perfectly smoothly.
After serving up my smoothies, I half filled the canister with warm water and added a drop of dishwasher liquid, put on the lid, and selected the clean button from the front. In just 45 more seconds, the clean cycle was finished. I rinsed the canister and lid and reassembled it all together and enjoyed my smoothie. Total time from unboxing to smoothie and cleaned blender was 5 minutes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing blender! 😍 My kids love puréed soups, and with the autumn season here, it’s the perfect solution for making pumpkin soup. It blends ingredients super quickly and has convenient controls along with a modern design.

Blends beautifully /easy to clean
on September 28, 2024
Posted by: bethanyo9
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Highly recommend this blender! It came with a small recipe book to provide options to blend and a tool to push the food down towards the blades. I have been making smoothies and frappes with this and it has blended beautifully! It also has different options to select what type of food you are blending with different strength levels. The blender is plastic which surprised me because I thought it would be glass. However, I would prefer the hard plastic anyway. Also easy to clean and it has a nozzle to push while you're cleaning it with soap and water.

The best blender on the market!

Posted by: natashaw132
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This blender is by far the best 1 I've used yet. I love how it has multiple functions to make many different recipes. The touch screen and pictures makes it easy to pick which setting you need. The cleaning option is very convenient and makes it's easy to clean in minutes. Definitely worth it to purchase this blender if you use blenders often!
