Overview

A smoothie maker ready to move up from a basic machine gets a motor base, a Tritan container and a mini-tamper in this Vitamix. Controls are physical, with variable speed and pulse, and the blade is stainless steel.

Smoothie makers and soup cooks get a strong motor base and a mid-size container backed by a full warranty. Cleaning means blending warm water with a drop of dish soap. The box holds a single container size plus the tamper, so very large batches need repeat runs.

Who it's for

Daily smoothie drinkers and home cooks making soups or nut butter will use the variable speed most. The self-clean method needs no disassembly. Cooks wanting automatic programs should know the controls are physical and manual.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Variable speed with pulse
  • Self-cleans with warm water and soap
  • Long full warranty
  • BPA free Tritan container
Cons
  • Single container size in the box
  • No preset programs listed
  • Tall body may not fit under cabinets

Performance notes

Blades spin at a speed chosen on the variable dial, and pulse gives short bursts for chunky textures. The mini-tamper pushes thick mixtures into the blades. For cleaning, warm water with a little soap is blended at the highest speed, which the description says needs no disassembly. The listed motor rating powers all of this from one base.
