Perfect for smoothies
on November 11, 2024
Posted by: jou3
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received Ascent X5 to try out.
I already have an older Vitamix that I enjoy using however it’s not as nice as this new model. The base and the blending container store separately and don’t take up too much room. Everything was neatly/safely packaged for shipping and was easily unpacked.
This unit is digital and I love the preset options. The smoothie setting blends everything perfectly. Starts slow and gradually speeds up automatically at a preset time. I mainly use my vitamix for smoothies.
The X5 has programs for nut butter, frappe, frozen cocktails, dips and spreads, non dairy milk, smoothie bowl and spice grinding. Haven’t used all of them yet but the nut butter and non dairy milk are great. Love that it is a fool proof setting and I don’t have to adjust the speed and time on my own. The lid snaps on securely unlike on my old model. The new blending container is a perfect 6 cup capacity. I find that size much better for smoothies than my old 8 cup. Cleaning it is a breeze.
The machine is LOUD on the higher settings but that is something I am used to. This blender is extremely powerful. Over all I love this new model. It’s easy to use. The pre programmed settings are super helpful and it’s beautiful.

Best of the best.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow. Just wow! This is one of the best appliances I have used! The amount of different features and blending profiles make this perfect for everything I make. Smoothie? Perfection. Blended drink? Nothing can compare. By far the easiest unit I’ve ever had to clean. It fits perfectly in smaller cabinets. This thing is a beast. I can’t say enough good things about it. Each day I find a new use for it!

I love my Vitamix, I use it daily and I’ve never had a problem. It’s reliable and so much better than any other blender I’ve used.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This blender is amazing! First of all it’s easy to use, it’s easy to clean and it works very good. It’s expensive but it’s worth the price for something that will work great and last for years. I love this blender!
