The Ascent X5 in Brushed Stainless is a game changer! We've made frozen desserts, protein shakes, peanut butter, soups, dips—you name it. It's powerful, easy to use, and cleanup is quick. The preprogrammed settings make it effortless to create just about anything. Highly recommend!

Old Blendtec burned out (10 years about 2k uses) - bought an X5 - night and day. Makes the Blendtec look like a toy. Perfect nut butters, smoothies, and just about anything. Ultra stable on counter. Tamper is a good thing. Easy to clean. X5 gives you best of both worlds- easy presets as well as adjusting knob - recommend without any reservations.

I have been dreaming of getting this blender for ages but I cousins afford it. Long story short, there was a sales going on during holiday period and I took advantage of it. No regrets afterward. I do a lot of blending as a Nigerian. Someone introduced Buchimix blender to me as an alternative but didn’t really go for it. After getting the newest Vitamix blender, I did test run of the blender using the same food/spices but with different settings and posted it in my YouTube channel.
I have had this blender for roughly a month and I use it everyday. I had a Bullet blender before and the Ascent X5 puts it to shame! Every smoothie I have made has turned out perfect and there is nothing this blender cannot chop. I love the preset modes and the clean function! Never thought it would be this easy to clean a blender. Overall, if you use it everyday it’s well worth the $$$! Just buy it and you will not regret it!

I had an older model that was still going strong but I moved that to a second location. I wish the new one A) had a bigger container like the older one, B) the container was made of glass and not plastic. Otherwise works the same and is excellent
