Bit the bullet and got a Vitamix: WOW

It was pricey but after dealing with cheap Ninja blenders I decided to go with the so-called industry leader. My Ninja left a lot of pulp no matter how long I blended. It didn't seem to blend as much as it just chopped everything up at a high speed. The Vitamix? I'm absolutely blown away by how consistent my smoothie is. Not a bit of pulp.
Now I can't wait to dig into the inch-thick recipe book
P.S. I got their "certified-refurbished" which comes with a 5-year warranty. It's a helluva deal, I think.

Deal is kinda relative I guess but I think I'm going to bite the bullet at some point. Keep waiting on our kitchen aid to crap out but that thing has more lives than a cat

I've ground allspice in mine. You can put granular sugar in there and make powdered sugar also. That thing is bad arse.

my wife is trying to get me to get us a juicer. i've read nothing but bad things about those frickers with the cleaning and shite.... i'm trying to steer her to the vitamix or the blendtec. told her it basically did the same thing. im hoping it works

I'm in the same boat as many of you that are waiting out a blender. I can't rationalize paying that kind of $ for a smoothie maker.
I'm praying one of my family members ends up upgrading and I can take a second hand unit. If I start making "green" smoothies, that might change my mind.

We have one and love it. It makes greats soups that come out of the blender hot.

I've got a blendtec (commercial unit) and it's shocking the leap from a regular blender to a vitamix or blendtec. Ice to snow, not ice to crushed ice for example

Mine is incredible, worth every penny of the $365 I paid for it. If anyone is thinking about it don't hesitate to make the purchase you won't regret it.

It really is a solid machine, the ice cream and soups are really good in there
