Vita-Mix 5200 Blender Reviews

I came across a Vita-Mix demonstration at our local Sam's Club store. It took me only ten minutes to make up my mind to buy one.

I could feel my glycemic index rising, as we drank down several different juice smoothies and soups. I would not recommend doing this! In fact, you would not. But for demonstration purposes, the demonstrator made at least five different things in a matter of 30 minutes.

The blender is so powerful seeds, and rinds from most fruits can be added directly into the plastic blending cup. It pulverizes whatever it is you add. You can gather your ingrdients, for instance frozen...

     I bought my first "VITA-MIX 3600" out of the classified ads for only $65! They said they paid a lot more money $$$ for this so called fancy "blender!" Which they said they hardly ever used!  Calling the Vita-Mix  a blender is such an understatement! That's  like calling the Grand Canyon a small, tiny little valley! The VITA-MIX is SO MUCH MORE then a common blender...it is the "ROLLS ROYCE" of juicers, blenders, choppers, food processsors, soup makers, smoothie-frozen drinks/ Margarita makers, grain-ice cream maker etc.... it's my #1 kitchen appliance! I found my second...

Noisy and a bit pricey, but worth it!  This machine can do it all.  I find the demo's both annoying and engaging.  Can one machine do it all?  Yes, almost.

We've had the Vitamix for almost three months, and have done blender soup, icecream and many many smoothies.  The other dry blender is noisy and fast at changing dry wheat berries into flour.  (The bread was a bit strong wheat tasting and a little on the heavy side for my family.) 

I bought this at a Costco demo and couldn't be more pleased.

My family and I play a guess the secret ingredient at dinner, and they are amazed to find cherry...

I was hesitant to spend the cash for a VitaMix mixer even though I was really impressed the the demo I saw at Sam's Club a couple of years back.  But when my blender died I gave VitaMix a look and really wanted one.  Their website has refurbished 5200s which is their current model at a great price.  Also it carries the same warranty as a brand new one.  I figured I couldn't go wrong so I ordered one and found a free shipping promo code to boot saving me $25.  I was impressed with the fact that VitaMix is made right here in the good ole USA and has been a family run business based in Ohio for...

I had seen the Vitamix demonstrations at Costco many times and thought to myself "sure, I'll try your smoothie/soup/salsa etc., but who in their right mind would spend over $400 on a blender?!".  It wasn't until I visited my dad and his girlfriend who had a brand new shiny Vitamix blender on the counter, did I become a fan.  My dad's girlfriend had pretty much turned our whole visit into a vitamix demo show.  She showed me EVERY trick she had learned in the short month she'd had it.  We made soup and salsa and smoothies and ice cream...by the time we left for home I was sad I couldn't afford...

I love my VitaMix, my mother had one when I was little and she made everything in it from juices to soups and pizza dough. Her original unit is still working today, with no repairs since purchasing it. The VitaMix brand has been around for a while and is reliable company regarding repairs and quality of the unit itself. The unit is a versatile kitchen appliance that I have found to be indespensible in my own kitchen. My VitaMix is easy to clean with water and a squirt of soap, it never has to be put in the dishwasher. Unlike a juicer, the VitaMix breaks down the pulp and solids that a standard...

I had to wait quite a while and save up my pennies to buy a Vitamix and I have not been disappointed!

I use my vitamix every day.  It blends until literally smooth.  It makes ice cream, nut butters, pancake batter, fruit smoothies that are smooth even after I add flax seed (!), chops hard cheeses that just about killed my food processor, makes soups, grinds grains,  does awesome salad dressings without having to chop first, and the pesto - YUM.

My sister went through 6 blenders in less than 2 years until she bought her vitamix.  She was burning them out making fruit smoothies - even the smoothie...

I recently purchased the Vita Mix 5200, with a 10 speed, 1500-watt motor.  After much research, comparing Vita Mix brand with Blendtec and other less expensive blenders, we found that overall the ratings for Vita Mix were excellent.

My husband and I were first introduced to the Vita Mix 5200 at a local Home Show, where a demonstration was taking place.  We were fascinated with the capabilities of a blender.

My pervious experience with a blender was making a fruit smoothie with a 450-watt motor blender that struggled to crush the ice.  Now we were watching a young lady put whole fruits and cups...

I absolutely LOVE my Vitamix Super 5000 Variable Speed Blender! It's very easy to use, there is no waste because it can liquify pinneapple & apple cores, and I haven't found a better way to create cheese sauces! It is louder than I like, however I can live with the noise!
