Vitamix 5200 vs Vitamix 7500

Breville products - after replacing all sorts of items breville hold up. Their larger counter top oven gets 3-4x/week use and nearly never use the “regular” oven any longer.

I made the jump from Nutribullet to Vitamix (specifically Vitamix 7500) last year and it's been a game changer.

Vitamix 5200, but for a more budget (but still excellent) option, I would highly recommend the Breville Hemisphere Control for a shade above 150. I will recommend against the Ninja blenders. They're a lot cheaper, but there are good reasons to get at least the Breville.

The price expires tonight midnight eastern time. You would pay 689.96 at retail, we're almost 291 dollars less and with the free ship you're, looking ...

It can easily make bar-quality crushed ice, almond butter, and smoothies, and it can even hot blend. However, this blender is pretty straightforward, and it doesn't have a Pulse mode or any preset modes. It also isn't dishwasher-safe, but it's still quite easy to clean by hand.

We all know one thing we have to be healthy to perform at our best and to do that. What better way than to incorporate some really really great nutrit...

Better practice would be to make all movement clockwise (or all movement cc) as this would put both studs of the pair in play for each lock-unlock episode ( and reduce the wear on the otherwise solo stud by a significant percentage).. The BEST PRACTICE, however, which might be a little hard to swallow or ordain in the instructions, would be to make all movement clockwise on odd days of the month, and all movement cc on even days of the month. OK, you think I'm nuts, so let me explain

I am in my 70s so I expect this may be the last model I will ever buy, assuming it lasts the next 30 years.

However, in order to use it for dry ingredients, you have to purchase a dry blade for it. For the price, it should have come with it. I liked it but it didn't fully serve the needs of my lifestyle. I took it back and bought a cheaper brand that I could use for dry ingredients

Okay, that's interesting! I wonder why you're not supposed to put in the sink? Oh, so I guess the blade doesn't come detached then just stays on Wow, ...

Received my 7500 Reconditioned and the first thing I noticed was the variable speed knob seems to have zero effect to the speed of the blades. I read the manual, followed the steps to 'reset' and still nothing. I have not had a great experience so far with Vitamix customer service. The first rep told me this was totally normal (which I've watched enough demo videos of this model to know that it is not, also just visited a friend yesterday with a Next Gen and their variable speeds work as expected)

Don’t forget to start on low speed but get to high speed within 5 seconds or air pockets will form and it will not blend properly. But of course, it all depends on well who knows what. Save your money!!! The co does nothing to address any issue. If you think mine is just damaged, Vitamix disagrees

They also back their warranty 100%. Bought a refurbished one with a 5 year warranty, 4 years later a small part cracked and they shipped it to themselves and sent me it back all fixed within 5 business days for free of course .

The jar and its lid are not dishwasher-safe (nor is the plastic tamper that comes with the blender), but both are simple enough to clean -- just fill halfway with warm water, add a few drops of dish soap, then run for 30-60 seconds, rinsing and air-drying afterwards.The 7500 also comes with a seven-year warranty, and you have the option to extend that warranty to ten years for $75. For customer service, call Vitamix toll-free at 1-800-848-2649, or e-mail service@vitamix.com

They emailed me a UPS label and let me ship (free)the mechine to repair. Only a week, fixed and returned it to me. No questioon, no more a word. Simple, easy, quick

3) The unit always turns on, first try, every time. My old unit was a different brand that was super finicky and had to be seated just right to turn on. It had poorly implemented safety feature involving lining up the container with the base. This one is so easy to use, you just sit the container not the base, that's it, no fussing
