VitamixA3500 Ascent Series Smart Blender, Professional-Grade, 48 oz. Container, Brushed Stainless Finish

Vitamix is the best! Works like a charm, great instructions and recipes! Easy to use!

What can't this blender do?? If I didn't love it so much I would experiment and see if it could crush rocks! There is nothing not to love...it's ease of use, it's sturdy base, it's pleasing presence on my counter and the oh so lovely smoothies! Did I mention it practically washes itself? No more ice chunks, not more smell of a burning engine because it couldn't handle the heat. This baby has it all. Some people complain about the noise but it just gets me excited to hear the jet engine noise whipping up my favorite yummies and it really doesn't take long for this blender to get the job done. Yes, it's an investment but if you use your blenders on a daily basis, it's worth it.

I absolutely love my new Vitamix. The quality and versatility of this machine is amazing. I use mine almost every day. I have owned other high-performance blenders and this Vitamix outshines them all. It arrived quickly from the seller and in perfect condition. The small cookbook that came with it is a great help in learning how to use the blender. I also bought the Vitamix cookbook written by Jodi Berg, a great addition to my cookbook collection. I highly recommend the Vitamix A3500 Assent.

I use this for almost everything. Durable. Quiet and easy to use.

I purchased the 5200 model exactly a week ago and started having some buyer’s remorse. First of all, using the manual controls, I could never seem to get the consistency exactly right. Secondly, all of the upgraded features from the 5200 to this the a3500 is WELL WORTH the $100 price difference and I started feeling a little ripped off when I looked at it from that perspective. This blender is just superior in every single way.It works with your phone and you don’t even have to pair it; they just recognize each other when you’re standing next to the blender with the app open. You put the ingredients in there; skin, pulp, seeds, and all, and select the smoothie button on the blender or the phone (or tell Siri to make a fruit smoothie!) and 40 seconds later you’ll have something that has the taste and consistency of a silky chocolate milk. Cleanup was under a minute as well.Also, unlike the tall 5200, this one fits neatly under my cabinet and has a little acrylic stand for the tamper so it doesn’t roll round the counter.Lastly, this model has optional attachments, like a food processor and a Bluetooth scale, both of which I will absolutely be getting, making this the definitive choice if you’re stuck trying to decide which model to buy.

I was hesitant to spend that much money for a blender and bought the Beast blender instead and although it's a good blender it's largest container is not big enough to blend a Medical Medium smoothie and one time I tried to use it it would switch on but would not work, then when I tried it again a day later it worked.The Vitamix A3500 Ascent Series Smart Blender, Professional-Grade with 48 oz. container is perfect and I love how the preset changes speed and gets the job done.

I really love my VitaMix A3500, it blends perfectly, no lumps no bumps, just smooth smoothies no matter what ingredients I use. Have had other brands of blenders and was disappointed with uneven blending and lumpy results. For me VitaMix is well worth the price. Would highly recommend. Love the smart blending controls, just touch the button and walk away and it does the rest. Long 10 year warranty on the motor is really nice too. For me nothing else compares.

It is my first time to buy a vitamix blender, specially a blender worth 600 usd and I'm really disappointed that they are shipping defective units. My unit doesn't even power up. Good thing Amazon help me to return the item.
