Pros

Cleaning is a breeze, especially using the cleaning button. While you may have to take a wash cloth to the inside once in a while, for the most part, the self cleaning does the trick. Cleaning mode really works.

The accent a3500 is noticeably quieter than other models. The controls are easy to read and intuitive and, as suggested earlier, it’s a very intuitive machine overall. I am now a believer.

Cons

New a3500 has persistent error 1 codes out of the box. Had to power cycle 20 times over 30 minutes to blend first smoothie and run cleaning cycle. Could not even crush frozen berries. If i attempt to blend anything frozen or even remotely solid the bl...  Read More

The power rocker switch fits loosely on the unit and is made of cheap hollow plastic. It is incapable of dealing with anything remotely viscious. Purchase a ninja instead, or any blender really.

Shipping


)if you aren’t home when it’s delivered and are in an area with porch pirates, beware.

Packaging/appearance


However it is worth noting that the vitamix ships in the vitamix box only without an exterior box, so it is painfully obvious t...  Read More

    The sound is very loud but the power is strong

    I’d rate this 6 stars if it was an option

    This is an expensive blender but has a 10 year guarantee with shipping paid both ways


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The idea of boiling soup in a blender was trippy to me at first but the texture of soups and smoothies produced is unparalleled by anything i’ve ever tasted


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I’ve never been great about eating my vegetables but the way this blender processes solids turns the coarsest fruits nuts and vegetables into pure buttery velvety ambrosia


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In fact i’ve found that even some soups i’ve made that are traditionally served hot taste amazing chilled


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Due to safety and durability concerns about repeatedly heating plastic at such high temperatures i sprung for a separate stainless steel container which for no good reason i can think of vitamix only offers in a barely adequate 48 oz capacity option for making hot foods
