Vitamix Propel Series 750 Blender, Professional-Grade, 64-oz Low Profile Container, White

I was hoping this wouldn’t end up being as incredibly loud as it is. It’s a very nice device otherwise

Works fantastic! We just did our first blend. I’ve had a Vitamix for 17 years. This week I finally had to replace it. I had that 5200. It was very easy to use. I’m excited about this one the propel 750, it’s gonna take some getting used to it. But it’s equally pretty easy, just a few few extra steps. But I like the programs that it comes with. Especially because I have kids and what I want them to learn to use it as well. So the programs will make it easy for them.

Alright, so the wife said we needed “more vitamins” in our diet, and apparently this blender is the answer. I’m not gonna lie, when I opened the box I thought it looked like something NASA would use to launch a hamster into space. Dials and switches and stuff... But hey, I’m a dad, I don’t read instructions — I just plug things in and see what happens. First attempt: I threw in some frozen fruit, yogurt, and about a pound of peanut butter. I didn’t put the lid on tight. Let’s just say the kitchen walls are now… strawberry-banana beige. The kids were thrilled, though. Second attempt went better. But here’s the thing: the smoothies this thing makes are AWESOME! Even the kids drank it without making faces, which is a miracle in itself. The motor is loud enough to wake the entire household, but in a “Dad’s doing something heroic in the kitchen” kind of way, so I don’t mind. Cleanup is “easy” if you remember to rinse it right away. If not, you’re chiseling cemented blueberry mush out of the blades at 10 p.m. while questioning your life choices. Overall: Solid!. 5 stars but because it should come with a warning label that says “This blender will repaint your kitchen if you don’t secure the lid like a responsible adult.”

This is much more than what I thought it would be - family size Vitamin - purchase during prime day to replace an older mixer.

Seems like vitamix has cheapened their products. What my old vitamix had no problem blending overheats my new one often leaving me with a half blended mess to clean up while I wait for it to cool down and start over again. And I'm not talking about anything crazy, just a smoothie with frozen fruit and greens.
