Ascent X4 Gourmet SmartPrep Kitchen System, Professional-Grade Blender, Stainless-Steel Blades, 12-Cup Food Processor Attachment with 4 Discs, 48 Oz Blender Container, White

Works very well. It can handle anything. My main ingredients are frozen whole bananas, frozen half-avocados, frozen peanut butter scoops. Very convenient to just press a button and walk away.

My vitamix from the 1980s quit working. I hoped to save money by using a food processor instead. Unfortunately they have very different blades and the outcome was less than desirable. After careful consideration ($$) I decided to buy another one. So, I did some research and chose the Ascent 4x. I like the size of the pitcher, the pre programmed options and quiet engine. Wow, just wow! My old vitamix was very nice, but the new one takes it to the next level. What I don’t like is: the tamper seems to be made out of hollow plastic. I’m not sure how well it will hold up. This version doesn’t offer the individual to go mixing tumbler that is available with the pro 5200. I like the added convenience of mixing a smoothie in the same container you will drink it out of. This was almost a deal breaker for me, but the size of the machine was a bigger issue. I am not disappointed at all. The ease of use and consistency made it worth while.

Wow, so much power, so much versatility, and so much fun. This little beast cuts my preparation time into 1/4 of the time spent slicing and dicing. The only thing I need now is the personal cut adapter. LOVE IT

While it’s on the pricier side, this blender/processor is worth every penny. It’s solid, powerful, and handles even the toughest tasks with ease. We’ve used it for everything from blending smoothies to processing ingredients for soups, and it has far exceeded our expectations. Making soup has never been easier—the consistency is perfect every time. Highly recommend if you’re tired of replacing blenders every couple of years—this one’s built to last!

Excellent blender for a large family.

Junk. Don't buy. Food processor only worked twice now the vitamix does not not work because it won't recognize it. I have clicked every part many times. Wasted alot of money and threw the box away cause it was huge. Biggest mistake buying this thing that will be stored in my garage.

The blender works great. I use it every day. The food processor does not work like I expected. I thought it was going to be easy to use but its so finicky that I rarely use it. It is too much trouble to have to fiddle with it over and over until it finally runs. If I manage to get it to work. I keep getting the warning icon on the screen which apparently means all the pieces are not perfectly attached. I thought it was just me until a friend that has worked in restaurants for years and should have been able to use it easily also ran into the same issue. He recommended I contact Vitamix.

We had an old blender that was on its last leg, around 20 years old, so we were looking for an upgrade with the same reliability. We did a lot of research and landed on vitamix, we chose this one due to the electronic display and the pre-loaded settings. Honestly, it’s so fast and so smooth that making smoothies is a breeze now. We did find that the preloaded smoothie setting can make the smoothies a little fluffier/airer than we’d like, so we do it manually and it comes out perfect every time. We’ve had no problems so far, no ice chips or chunks of anything. The capacity of the blender is a decent size, we can make around three tall glasses of smoothie per blend. Make sure you pay attention to the order in which you put in your ingredients, as that helps with the functionality a lot.

Fantastic! Nothing like a Vitamix. . This is an upgrade from an older model that was still working. Highly recommend!

This is the best blender I’ve ever had. But it better be for $1000. Pretty quiet as far as blenders go. Just don’t tell the wife how much you paid for it.

I love my vitamix.. I use it most days.

Merveilleux

Best appliance and now the most used appliance in my house. Smoothies are daily for my husband and I. We LOVE them and I LOVE my Vitamix!
