Vitamix A2500 Ascent Series Smart Blender, Professional-Grade, 64 oz. Low-Profile Container, White

I am not going to go into the specs as they are already listed. Simply put this is a blender that can do just about anything you want. Key features which sold us on this are as follows. As with all my reviews, I will update this should it develop any issues with ongoing use. Expensive but with everything.... You get what you pay for, -Quality-Durability. -Size. Fits under our counters and looks professional on our countertop. -Blending abilities. We blend smoothies and can thrown in whole cut up apples-seeds and all. Smoothie is silky and those parts of foods you usually do not blend remain giving you even further nutrients. -Has our basic common presets for no fuss. -Has great technology built into it. It has an app, wireless connectivity so you do not need to adjust settings when you use other self detect containers. -Has timer. This is a gem! Once you find your perfect mix, you no longer have to guess at timing or anything. -Note the cord is 4 foot which is a great length. Not too long and not too short like some. Make sure you use this on a dedicated outlet. It draws 12 amps and a typical home outlet is 15 amps for older homes or 20 amps for newer homes. -Metal drive socket. When this wears down you can replace it for cheap and easily! Most kitchen appliances are made so when they break, you have to throw them away. -Does not get hot like some blenders and even has a setting to make warm soups. Yep, it actually warms them up as it blends due to friction technology. -10 Year Warranty although I do not think I will need to use. (Most are only 1 or 2 years.) Note - We have not used this with any other containers. Just the 64 oz one Oh yeah, did I say SELF CLEAN!

This blender is incredibly powerful. Smoothies, sauces, even tough ingredients blend effortlessly. The presets make it really simple to use, and the build quality feels premium and durable.

I love my Vitamix!! I make smoothies every day. I had been using a Nutri Ninja, but they didn't last but a year so I decided to step up to a Vitamix. Yes it was expensive, but hopefully with a 10 yr warranty, I will be money ahead in the long term. The smoothies are now really smooth; much more so than when made using the Ninja. I was very undecided about which model to buy, but I made the right choice with the A2500. It has the smoothie preset so I can start it and walk away. I use the same selection for cleaning because I know it will stop by itself. And cleaning is so easy. It grinds up anything I've put in it, even makes kale stems smooth in short order. I do like having the digital timer because I can see how much time I've used when blending for recipes. The lid snaps on easily and releases easily. I would recommend this model to anybody. The container size is perfect too.

I got fat...so I thought it would be good to eat better and try healthy smoothies with vegetables and fruit. I dugout my old blender and found the consistency poor and seeds in my teeth. So I did a lot of research and review reading. I narrowed it down to 5 brands, then 2, then Vitamix. I was really sold on the Professional Series 750 or the new Ascent A3500. I just could not pull the trigger on a $500-$650 blender. The Ascent A2500 has the same 2.2 hp motor, a 10 year warranty, is a fraction shorter than the 750, has a clear lid, a time counter, 3 program settings, and standard controls like the 750. The 750 has been a very popular model. I love the brushed stainless...but that fraction (1/4") keeps it from fitting easily under my cabinets. The older style with the block centering pad does not look as sleek as the new Ascent series. I like the redesigned cooling system for the Ascent series and the 3 extra years for a total of 10 years warranty. That told me Vitamix was banking on the redesign. The Ascent series comes with the 64 oz container and there are additional accessories in the works. The Ascent series has 4 models which all have the same motor, container, warranty, etc. The A2300 has a 10 speed dial, pulse switch, start/stop switch, and digital timer. The A2500 has the same features and adds 3 program settings for smoothies, frozen desserts, and hot soups and adds $50 to the price. The A3300 is the same price as the A2500 but loses the program settings but gains touch start/stop, touch pulse, and a programmable timer (which allows for setting a count down time). The A3500 adds 5 program touch settings and $100 to the price. No matter which one you get, I'll bet you'll love it. A couple of weeks after getting the A2500, I got a wild hair and decided to also get the A3500. They are both awesome and right now I'm enjoying a fantastic frozen margarita.

I love this blender! I puree vegetables into soup; threw lots of cooked veggies into the blender but my old KitchenAid couldn't handle it. The Vitamix 2300 pureed it quickly on 'soup' setting, so smooth and delicious. Same with my protein shake. The KitchenAid left pieces of the greens and blackberry seeds. The Vitamix powered right through it on 'smoothie' setting. It is loud, though. When it gets to the higher speeds it sounds like it's going to take off. Worth the money as I'll use it often.

Update after 10 months What an amazing machine and a company behind it. I noticed a crack on my jug and called Vitamix. To my surprise, they simply sent me a replacement. No questions, no bickering. A very customer centric approach to ensure satisfaction. The rep also told me how much warranty I have left (9 whole years). After this experience, if Vitamix decided to double their price, I would still recommend them. Goes to show that North America can still produce fine quality products while remaining true to their values. Kudos to the entire company. Super awesome product. I have only used it for two weeks but it is in a category of its own. No other blenders can come close to the quality which this product offers. Expensive but worth every penny.

Beste wo gibt

Amo mi vitamix

Klappte wie immer "wie verrückt"

Purchased August 2023. Shipped quickly and was packaged very well. My first ever Vitamix product. I am extremely happy with this item. It is loud, but that kind of comes with the power it has. The nice thing about the power it has is that it does the job very very fast so you don’t have to run it that long. Makes the most amazing smoothies, sorbet, puréed soups, butters ect. I was hesitant due to the price, but it is worth every dollar! I have since purchased the smaller blending attachment and container. It is incredible for making just an individual smoothie or small batches of dressing, aïoli that kind of thing. My husband’s favourite feature is the ease of cleanup. Just Add water, dish soap and turn it on. Drain and rinse. No need to worry about getting cut by the blades while cleaning. Highly recommend
