Vitamix Ascent Series A2500 Blender, White

After muhh deliberation I decided to invest in a vitamix and I am not disappointed. I wish I had bought it sooner. I use mine multiple times a day and it blends brilliantly. Much better than any blender I've had in the past and it's really helping me adopt a whole foods healthy diet.

I bought this vitamix blender a few weeks ago it's my very best friend in the kitchen now love it amazing product .

Just love this new machine. So solid and works through fruit vege ice etc with ease. We have been using daily as rinses easily or dishwasher clean - could not be easier. Made quick hot soup the other night ..... dips easy and of course smoothies each day. Planning Xmas day cocktails !

My machine arrived about two months ago and I am impressed how smooth the juice made by Vitamix is! I have made juice and smoothie and all work good. It just makes really loud sound and wake everyone up in the morning. It is okay to make juice since it only takes like a minute but if making soup from scratch with the machine, it takes like 5-10 minutes and my family can't stand it(We live in an average sized house but it is still pretty loud) . I still recommend this product to people who would like to drink good juice and smoothies at home.

Absolutely nothing wrong with this machine; I love the program settings, and it's a breeze to use and clean. I have an issue with textures and lumpy drinks (dry-heave) - now my smoothies are the smoothest consistency I could have imagined. The red unit looks great on the countertop too. Only thing I would improve is having the dial register a subtle 'click' to acknowledge each speed when you turn it, but that's being very picky. The machine and recipe book are worth every penny, the speed, ease and quality of food we've prepared for our growing family have made this a life-changing investment.

This is my first high tech blender and it is just amazing! For anyone who is deciding between a juicer or a Vitamix, this was a clear winner for me. I've bought two juicers in the past, one was a centrifuge and one was a masticating one. Both had its pros and cons but eventually I got tired of the clean up process; it took at least 15 mins to prep and clean up and if you do that every morning, you get tired of doing it. So I ended up throwing out both. I bought this and the clean up process takes 1 MINUTE. All you do is rinse And clean with a little soap and that's it. It has the consistency of a juicing if you add more water. And bonus, you get fiber that would be lost in a juicer. Highly recommend.

I am highly satisfied with my vitamix experience. I was recommended to purchase a Vitamix by a family member. It was the best decision I could have made. I have made frappe, smoothies, juices. Very pleased with the outcome of each. I will recommend to others.

After six months of thinking about it and researching, I bought a white A2500. It is beautiful, so happy I chose white. I make a smoothie with fruits and vegetables daily and use the preset button. Best part is walking away and knowing that in 50 secs my breakfast smoothie is perfectly made! I also make a lot of nut-based sauces and baked goods, and have been very impressed so far with the results. Basically it has eliminated the need to use my food processor. I recommend checking out the recipe book that comes with the A2500, I've made five of the recipes and they were excellent, especially the soups and the vegan cheese sauce! When people tell you that a Vitamix is a life game-changer, it's actually true!

they are requesting i do this review. but i have not had the machine for very long. so its a bit premature to give a accurate review. The biggest negative was the price. Its super expensive. But it is American made. If it were not, i would not have been willing to pay that much for it. i do like the features it has. if you want to make a smoothie, you turn the dial to the picture of the smoothie and press start button and it runs the machine at one speed for several seconds and then speeds up at appropriate time and when its done it stops and the results are the smoothie comes out perfect. with a ordinary blender, you'd have to adjust the speeds manually and check it until you got it where you wanted. but it does have a way to do it manually if you didn't like using their preset settings for smoothie and a couple other items, i forget right now what they are. one thing they could improve on is i am not jazzed about the plastic container. wished it was glass. also the lid has a twist off center cap, which is hard to twist off easily. its somewhat hard to pull up to add some water/juice or some thing through that opening. but overall, thats a minor issue. other thing is when its on full throttle, its kind of loud, like most blenders. possibly future models could be designed to operate more quietly.

I came from a Pro 500 Vitamix and I upgraded to this new Ascent series. It is worth the upgrade and worth the investment. As soon as you open the box you will notice the high quality standard that Vitamix put into this product. I like everything with this blender. At first I thought that the rubber lid will be better, but once you see and hold the new lid, it is very well constructed and the clips on the side is very strong. I like the new container as I noticed that it blends better, less need for the tamper because it is wide and having the huge 4" blade is a plus. It seems that the gears on the container that goes into the drive socket is longer than the old one, which to me it will last longer. The self detect feature is great as well for safety, as you can only run the blender when you place the container on top of the blender base. The blender base is heavy which make it more stable when blending. It is definitely much quieter than the Pro 500 that I had. The rubber pad on the top feels good to the touch which I think helps to reduce the noise. The toggle switch for pulse and start/stop have a great rugged feel to it. The digital timer is one of the great feature of this blender as it shows you for how long you are blending already and when you are using the pre-sets it will show you as to how long it will blend. Overall, this is a great blender. If you want the manual controls, pre-sets, digital timer, the new container and the 10 YEAR WARRANTY!!!. Then, this blender is for you. You can never go wrong with this. I can't wait until the new single single cup container becomes available.
