Troubleshooting All Vitamix Blenders include thermal sensors designed to shut the unit off when overheating. When this occurs, turn the power off for up to 45 minutes, allowing the blender to cool down or reset. Always check your speed: Vitamix blenders perform best on High speed to pulverize food and process thick mixture. Check the quantity and density of your blend. Follow the order of ingredients. Use the Tamper. When in doubt, refer to your owner’s manual for tips or visit the Vitamix homepage for techniques videos.”HP: 2-peak.Compare with similar items

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was making hummus regularly, every three or four days, using a battery operated hand held immersion blender. I did not get quite the smoothness I wanted, it was not powerful enough, but it was compact and I could do the blending in the jar I stored the hummus in and was easy to clean.
With the Vitamix I got smoother hummus, but that was only after interupting the process and using a spatula to stir things up - because without that the output had larger bits of chickpea skin that survived (I don't want to skin the chickpeas). (With a hand blendeer you can move the device around to make sure everything is processed.) The cleanup with the blender is typical, but what I really dislike is the effort it takes to get hummus out of the container. I haven't made icecream or sorbets, but how does one serve it without leaving a significant portion deep in the container or coating fluted walls that don't lend themselves to convenient silicone spatula use? So conclusion is that the product is great but I don't like countertop blenders.
With the exception of wishing I'd got the low profile container, this blender is definitely superior, and what I would consider an investment in your health. It makes homemade much easier and efficient, which obviously has its benefits. While the price tag might elicit a little whiplash for us normal folks, I don't plan on having to replace it any time soon. And if you consider it an investment, it definitely makes the price easier to swallow.

Prior to this Vitamix the only blender I had ever used in my *entire life* was an ancient Osterizer from the 70s. The thing is literally older than I am, but beyond all reasonable expectations it still somehow works. Go Osterizer, I guess? This year I grew way too many hot peppers, decided to make a bunch of hot sauce with them, and suddenly the Osterizer showed its age. While it was fine blending a couple of smoothies a month for us, it struggled to blend up 12 litres of hot sauce in one night, so I figured maybe the time had come to get a "real" (I.E. manufactured in this century) blender.
After some internet research I selected the Vitamix 5200 as being the most likely not to struggle through my new hot sauce hobby, only to find that I was basically swatting a fly with a nuke. That old Osterizer took about 2 hours of blending and cooling down to do 12 litres of my (admittedly very thick) hot sauce puree. The Vitamix 5200 did all 12 litres in less than 2 minutes.
The Vitamix 5200 is *absurd*. And that has made it life-changing for us.
It doesn't matter what you put in there. You can just shove the most fibrous of vegetables in there, right up to the brim, and *bvvvvvt*, instantly pureed. Shove a bunch of ice in there...instant slushy. Anything that is a solid that you no longer want to be a solid anymore this blender will handle.
So we went from a household that might make a couple of smoothies every month to one that is now bulk-making sauces, soups, and so forth. We even just toss hole grains of various types (wheat, oatmeal, rye, flax, etc.) and turn them into our own multi-grain flower, then into pre-mixed dry bread ingredients.
When we are "low spoons" - I.E. we just don't have the jam to cook properly - we can just pull out some of our pre-made sauce from the freezer, drop it on some noodles, et voila: actual food groups get consumed.
As an ADHD household we have been familiar with the concept of "a critical threshold of ease of use" for some time, but we never expected to find that in a *blender*. Somehow, however, the thing is both just easy enough to use and powerful enough to handle whatever we throw at it with zero prep work that has managed to make the "pre-cooking your nutritious meals" parts of adulting just easy enough that we can actually do them on a regular basis.
If you're looking for a top-of-the-line blender for your home, you'd be hard-pressed to find anything that would top it, I think. All those rave reviews on the internet were, for once, actually not lying.

I purchased a Vitamix blender many years ago and fell in love with this versatile machine. Easy to use and clean. Worth the investment for sure.
Thank you Lemon Scent.

The amount of money I have wasted on cheap brands compared to this high quality blender specifically the 5200 is upsetting. Very pleased with the power, but as one would always say, could be cheaper, but you can't really put a price on quality.
