Pros & Cons
Pros
No other blender compares to the vitamix 5200. I use the 5200 to make amazing sorbet as an amazing summertime thirst quencher.
The carafe is 100% perfectly shaped. It is easy to mix in many fresh fruits or vegetables. I rarely need to use the tamper. It's so much easier making frozen fruit smoothies in the morning.
Vitamix blenders are a great powerhouse when it comes to blending. This blender is on a whole other level than any ninja or other brand besides maybe blendtec. Blending power is tops.
Cons
Review was moderated by vitamix because i said something bad about their inept customer service. Either this is a knock off or refurbished or defective but they won’t allow a return after 1 month. Junk junk junk.
The vitamix has a burning smell when used. My plastic is pitted and discolored.
Highlights
Quality
This has a super strong motor and it is very well made.
It feels solid and durable, ready to handle everything from frozen fruits to tough leafy greens.
Instructions are to unplug the machine and allow it to sit for at least 45 minutes to reset the shut-off.
I had a ninja but it stopped working, plastic broke off the gear.
Price
Pricey but again it is the best.
I could not justify the cost of this blender for just making smoothies.
Shipping
This highly anticipated vitamix 5200 blender arrived today, even earlier than amazon originally promised.
Packaging/appearance
Pulled it out of the box, grabbed some ice and mixers and made margaritas.
The only thing i would say i did not like was that they sent it in a brown box and i didn’t get the original box it came in…kin... Read More
Competitiveness
My cuisinart food processor did a good job with peanut butter, but the vitamix is so much better.
The kids and i did a side by side comparison with the ninja we had been using and it was shocking to see the difference.
