Review on 🥑 Vitamix A2500 Ascent Series Smart Blender, 64 oz. Low-Profile Container, Black, Professional-Grade by Todd Markel

First off, this blender is AMAZING! This seriously blew my mind. I don't know about you, but product promotion often spoils it for me. I am so enthusiastic about the product and then it does not live up to my high expectations. I assure you that will not happen with this Vitamix! My previous blender was the Nutri Bullet and the Vitamix puts it to shame! Before, I had no idea I could blend pomegranate seeds and black berry seeds into a smoothie without the grainy texture. I thought it was just fresh fruit but no, that's just not true - you just need a good blender. It completely turns whatever I add into a nice smooth liquid. I can finally add celery to my juices without choking on it. For high-fiber fruits/vegetables, I suggest running Vitamix in 2 preset smoothie cycles to further break down the fiber for silky smooth results. There have been several complaints about the inability to make smoothies in smaller portions. I had no trouble making a 16 ounce smoothie for myself, but for me it's a single serving smoothie/juice. I think the trick is to add more liquid to the smaller smoothie/juice to allow the thick plant fibers to move continuously without snagging on the sides. If you're making a smoothie for multiple people, you can trim out the excess liquid and thicken the smoothie/juice if you'd like. You'll have more fruit/veggies so they don't get stuck on the sides as easily because more will move. The soup setting is amazing. For a quick lunch, I like to add leftover roasted veggies with liquid and herbs. I bet and boom, a hot dinner in minutes! I didn't think I'd use this setup, but once you get a feel for how cool it is, you'll be hooked too. Cleaning is a breeze! Drop of Dawn, 1/2 pitcher full of warm water, run on preset smoothie setting, rinse and pat dry. It couldn't be easier! Once a week I mix water and vinegar to clean and then let it sit for 10 minutes to remove any mineral deposits on the blades. It works great and very fast. Just clean it right after each use and never leave any smoothie/juice in it and you will have no problem cleaning it. If you need a new blender, choose this one! It's worth every penny!
