Title: Excellent Machine: Very very loud at high speed; very loud at medium speed, loud at low speed.
Review: Absolutely an awesome blender. Also purchased the food processor attachment. Everything was easy to assemble and use. Every attachment is dishwasher safe (except the motor base), however the recommended cleaning method using a drop of dish-soap in the water filled containers, then turning on the unit (followed by a rinse) works very well and is faster than the dishwasher.Very loud blender assembly... from loud to very-very loud depending on speed setting. I have and use hearing protection, and recommend all users wear hearing protection. It may seem like it is unnecessary, but if you use your blender with any frequency, the noise level will degenerate your hearing over time. [FPN: I knew from both reviews and friends who have this unit, it was LOUD, but I felt (still do) it was worth the purchase. Sidebar: I also wear hearing protection (plus other PPE) when using my power tools (chop-saw, table saw, circular saw, zip-saw, drill, etc.). So, I suggest you treat this tool in the same manner as other power tools and protect your hearing!]User Note; the blender motor controller will not allow the motor to energize unless all of the blending (and food processing) attachments are fully seated and the lids/covers are properly (tightly) secured.I'm very glad I have this blender; for me it's very useful and provides all the power to do what it's designed for, with ease.Pros: excellent power range, speed and controls; awesome attachments.Cons: pricy and loud.

Title: Perfect and quieter
Review: This was an upgrade/replacement to our prior Vitamix. Great blender. Yes, it's expensive, but it's also a perfect machine. And this newest model is a few decibels quieter. That sounds like a minor difference, but it is noticeable, and since you're standing right next to it as you're using it, your ears will thank you.

Title: BEST BLENDER EVER!!!!!
Review: I have to start by giving a huge thank you to the Amazon employee that helped me out with this. When I received the blender initially the first one had an error code on it. I called Vitamix directly and was on the phone for about 45 minutes between holding and talking to the representative trying to resolve the issue. Vitamix recommended that I send it back to Amazon because if sent it to them it would be up to two weeks before I got a new blender. I was very disappointed and called Amazon to explain the situation. The rep was very sweet and had a new blender on the way to me for next day delivery before I even sent the old one back! Now on to the blender. It is AMAZING! I am vegan and make a lot of dishes with cashews. I don't even have to soak them overnight like I did with my Ninja blender and would still have chunks in it. This blender makes the best queso, soups, nut butters and smoothies I have ever had. I love the cleaning mode as well! It comes with the longest warranty of anything I have ever purchased besides an automobile! It is well worth every penny! I am so happy I made this purchase!

Title: It’s Wonderful
Review: This is the noisiest piece of kitchen equipment I have ever owned, but I love it.Don’t know what took me so long to get one, probably the price. It makes the creamy smoothies, and it even does hot soups.But if you’re looking for something quiet, this is not the one for you. It is very, very noisy especially when it reaches about 7, 8 and 9.10 is the loudest.

Title: 2 yr love affair
Review: I wanted to use this for a while before I made any reviews or judgments. I purchased on 11\2021. TL:DRI will never use another blender again. It does everything that the I need plus more. if it lasts as long as it claims to it is well worth the investment and with the warranty on the motor I am not worried in the least.I can make creamy ice cream, smoothies, raw food juicing, milks, nut butters, soups, drinks and much more. I was an avid fan of Nutribullet. I started out with the magic bullet and progressed my way to the 1200 w Nutribullet that claimed it could blend any fruit or vegetable into a creamy smoothie.Wrong. I would always have small chunks of ginger and baby spinach in my smoothie. I have an aversion to certain textures so this was not acceptable. So I began the deep dive into finding the perfect blender for me. For my household needs I needed a blender that was capable of doing multiple things well ( smoothies, drinks, nut butters, milks, soups, actual blending, whole food juicing, etc.)At first I thought 549 dollars for a blender? Hard pass.Then I noticed I kept coming back to the this blender. I then deep dived unbiased reviews of this blender vs the Blendtec vs the ninja blender. While in the videos the vitamix came out on top about 80% of the time, the only defining qualities the other machines had were a lower price point.i decided against the NInja because the 3 towers of detachable knives peaked my Final Destanation senses and in a head to head blend off in real time the spinach was still separated from the rest of the blend.i veto'd the blendtec bc the reviews weren't that glowing. That left me with the decision of which vitamix to purchase. I was torn between this one and the original. I choose this version because of the timers and the bells and whistles. i don't know sometimes how long i am supposed to blend something and this version gives me the option to add ingredients, sync up to the app and let the machine take it from there. there has not been on recipe when i let the app control that has come out wrong. also if i want to be experimental i can with the dials.Buy it. you wont regret it.

Review: I had seen these blenders before on the cooking shows and know the big Celebrities all say its a "must have kitchen essential"... but it really is. My Partner and I went away on vacation and the resort had a smoothie bar and used these. We were so impressed at what it did, I bought this machine as soon as we came home. We literally use it everyday to make smoothies. Our fresh produce waste has actually reduced as we put everything and ever fruit and vegetable on hand in these smoothies. I have also purchased the stainless steel blender cup and started making soups in it with the 1-tough soup mode. It's truly an amazing machine. I recently purchased the food processor attachment and donated my long trusted Kitchen Aid blender, food processor, and mixing wand as this easily replaces all of these with ease, snd its self cleaning! I hate to agree with them, but it is a Must Have kitchen essential! LOL!

Review: Be very careful what vendor you purchase from! My wife bought from a 3rd party seller that advertised at nearly twice the price as they stated a pro professional version. There is no such thing. We returned and were refunded (thanks Amazon!) and purchased another at 1/2 cost for identical unit. We love this Vitamix!!

Review: Finally took the plunge and purchased a Vitamix. Figured if I was spending the money I’d go for the 3500 with all the bells and whistles. I really do appreciate the presets. Totally unnecessary, I know, but they do add convenience, and what’s an extra few bucks when I’m already spending hundreds of dollars more than most high end blenders. I’ve made juices, shakes, smoothies pretty much daily, and consistency is perfect (no chunks, fibres, etc.). Made the best hummus I’ve ever made (out of hundreds of batches). Did a broccoli cheddar soup that came out great. Chocolate mint and strawberry ice cream. Clean up is a breeze. So far it’s living up to the hype. If buying on Amazon, watch the price, as it tends to fluctuate by a hundred bucks or more from day to day.

Review: I have only had this for 4 days but it is amazing. Smoothies are brilliant and soup is brilliant in it!! Love that it has the ability to clean itself ❤️. Have not made any ice-cream or granita yet to comment. Bottom line - well worth the investment.
