Vitamix Ascent A2500 Blender, Red, 062665

Es muy comodo y rapido.

Absolutely brilliant. I thought for a long time about purchasing a vitamix because of the cost and I had a ninja blender which was ok. This is on another level. More sturdy, powerful and blends quicker and more smoothly.

This is the real deal when it comes to blending!We have always been a "nutri-something or other" kind of family and thought that was where it was at. Sadly, those had a tendency of the motor burning out and perhaps more annoying, the bearing in the blades wearing out. After two blenders and five replacement blade sets, I think it is safe to say that I had had enough.After some research, we settled on this model as it is on the cheaper side but also had plenty of good reviews.BLENDING - If you are switching over from a cheaper product like we did, you will notice the difference immediately. I remember avoiding a too much fibre in my smoothies before because of the gunk that would rise to the top. Always made me think of pond scum for some reason...With this, there is none of that. The blender will make short work of that and the consistency is silky smooth. On the rare occasion it is not, I just blitz it again (top tip for green smoothies, to decrease separation of the liquid when left to stand, just add a tablespoon of chia seeds! You're welcome).NOISE - This baby is loud! But then it needs to be to do the work it does. It won't make you deaf and you can stand next to it as you blend but you will be aware of the noise.CLEANING - Simple enough to clean. I thought it would take me longer to clean than the other brands I alluded to but if it does, it is marginally so. I mostly just rinse it with warm water and a cleaning sponge or soft brush.SERVICE - Very good! So a month after buying this it wouldn't blend a smoothie I was making (spoiler alert - I added too much stuff!), so I went online to their chat via the Amazon page and the guy on the other end was super helpful. Also, he didn't make me feel like a fool for overloading it, just calmly talked me through it. So if you find it stops for any reason. Just empty it, put some water in and try again. If it works, you know that you have put too much in or the blending setting is not suitable.

Estoy bastante decepcionada con este modelo. Se para mucho, no tiene potencia y es como si no llega a coger bien los alimentos para procesarlos. No se puede hacer mucha cantidad ni poca, por que los cuchillos se quedan trabajando al vacío. Rápidamente empieza a oler el motor como a quemado. Mucho dinero pagado por un producto decepcionante. Estoy bastante enfadada conmigo misma por no haberlo devuelto a tiempo.

agonised for a long time about this purchase as, left's face it, it's really expensive for a blender. Previous one was one of the best mid range blenders which I'd had for 3 years and was 1/4 of the price. But it gets used at minimum daily, for smoothies, sauces and hummus etc and every now and again made a funny noise so decided to go for it based on the longevity and warranty mainlyWell, I thought my other one was fine until I tried this! Green smoothies are completely smooth, even when they have tough veg and seeds in, hummus is smoother, there's absolutely no issue with frozen stuff and whole family is addicted to basil lemonade!It's lost one star for 'cleaning' as making hummus is a pain to get the hummus out from around the blades, so takes a lot of scraping around
