Which Vitamix is the right one? Vitamix blenders in comparison

While there used to be only the all-round blender Vitamix TNC 5200, Vitamix has rapidly expanded their product range since 2014. There now is a variety of new blenders that are more tailored to specific needs.
You will get an overview of all Vitamix product lines here:

Vitamix Classic blender

The Classic blenders are the oldest Vitamix models. On the market for many years, these models also offer the largest range of accessory items. We therefore still consider the Vitamix Classic blenders to be the most attractive in the Vitamix range.

Vitamix Classic Blender

Vitamix C-Series: Vitamix for purists

Meanwhile, the Vitamix TNC 5200 belongs to the long-established product line, of the so-called Vitamix Classic blenders. No container lid detection, Bluetooth or digital display, but with all the application possibilities you would expect from a first-class blender. This series is optimized to allow the maximum freedom of preparation with only one single container.

If you want maximum flexibility with only one container, go for the Vitamix TNC 5200.

Vitamix G-Series: Vitamix for demanding users

After Vitamix introduced the Vitamix Pro 750 to the market in 2014, a new generation with electronic speed control was born. The Pro 750 features the new Vitamix container with patented high-speed blades, made for the creamiest smoothie consistency we know from a blender. Thanks to extended blades, up to 434 km/h are achieved at the blade tips, despite it´s lower rpm . The amazing blending result can be seen and tasted. In combination with excellent acoustic insulation, the Pro 750 is also the quietest Vitamix. We do not know another blender that delivers such a fine and creamy smoothie experience. Even raspberry seeds become as fine as in no other blender. We were also surprised by the pleasant cool temperature of the smoothie. However, an additional 1.4-liter container belongs in the package for smaller portions (250 to 500 ml).

Maximum performance in a timelessly elegant design. That's what the Vitamix Pro 750 stands for.

Vitamix Explorian-Series: Vitamix for Beginners

The models of the Explorian Series - Vitamix E310 (launched in 2019) and Vitamix E320 (2023) and Vitamix E520 (2024) - resemble the older Vitamix models in design. In favor of a more affordable price, technical features such as Bluetooth or container detection have been omitted. Accordingly, their operation is simple and intuitive.

This means that the Explorian Series offers three blenders: While the Vitamix E310 with its 1.4-liter container is an excellent all-around blender for all popular blending preparations in small to medium quantities, the Vitamix E320 with its compact 2-liter container excels in creating Green Smoothies, fruit and vegetable smoothies, coming close to the smooth texture of the blenders in the Ascent Series or the Vitamix Pro 750 of the G-Series. However, it completely lacks timer programs. If these are desired, the E520 is an alternative. With 3 instead of 5 programs, it is essentially the budget version of the Pro 750.

For those seeking a simple and good Vitamix at a more affordable price, they should consider the Vitamix E310. On the other hand, if the focus is on smoothies and shakes and is willing to purchase an additional container for other preparations, one should look into the E320 or E520.

Vitamix Propel-Series: Vitamix Classics for the Discerning

The new Propel series is expected to arrive in Germany and Europe in 2024. These devices are visually similar to the Explorian series, with different color variations (black, red, white, and possibly gray) and always equipped with timed programs. Since they are based on the same container system as the Explorian series, the blending capabilities are also identical.

Two models are announced for the launch: The Vitamix Propel 750 with a 2-liter Pro container and the Propel 510 with a 1.4-liter container.

If you appreciate a simple, classic Vitamix design but don't want to compromise on convenience features like timed programs, the Propel series is the right choice for you.

Vitamix Smart Blender

Vitamix Ascent Series: Vitamix for technology enthusiasts

Vitamix Smart Blender

Building on the Pro models, the latest generation was launched in 2017. The Smart Mixers from Vitamix. In order to maintain the high standard of the Pro 750, especially the creamy smoothie consistency, the powerful motor and the proven container design of the Vitamix Pro 750 were retained. Likewise, the same applies to the Ascent mixers: For smaller portions (250 to 500 ml), the Vitamix 1.4 Liter Container Smart is mandatory.

In addition to a new visual look, there are a number of technical refinements:

  • Bluetooth interface for the "Vitamix Perfect Blend" app
  • NFC - container lid detection protects against accidental switch-on (SELF-DETECT)
  • Dishwasher-safe container with transparent lid

Anyone who suspects a high susceptibility to malfunctions with all these high-tech functions can breathe a sigh of relief: the Vitamix Ascent Series comes with a 10-year warranty.

Those who are attracted to the latest of the latest will be delighted by the Vitamix Ascent Series.

Vitamix Compact blender (Vitamix S-Series)

Vitamix Compact Blender

Vitamix S30: For travelers and small kitchens

For travelers and small kitchens, Vitamix launched the Vitamix S30 in 2015. Performance-optimized to the 1.2 liter container, it takes up less space in the kitchen and impresses visually with its slim design. It has the smallest minimum quantity and is therefore suitable for small salad dressing portions, fresh baby food, etc.

Those who also value compact size, in the device and in the portions, achieve the maximum performance in the smallest space with the Vitamix S30.

Note: Since the Vitamix S30 has been discontinued in 2021 and Vitamix does not offer anything comparable, we recommend the Bianco di Puro Attivo as an adequate alternative.

Which Vitamix is the best?

Best Vitamix - Vitamix Pro 750 Of course, we can only answer this question subjectively: Currently, the Vitamix Pro 750 with 1.4-liter container is not only the best Vitamix for us, but also the best blender. The smoothie consistency leaves nothing to be desired, and it also impresses with its elegant appearance and design.

Highlights include:

  • Timelessly beautiful design
  • Finest creaminess
  • Carefree investment with a 7-year warranty

Which Vitamix has the best price/performance ratio?

Vitamix - price performance winner

Currently, the Vitamix TNC 5200 might be the most attractive overall package.

Why is Vitamix so expensive?

Why is Vitamix so expensive?

"Built to last": Vitamix blenders are designed for the longest possible usage time at uncompromisingly high blending speeds. Like no other manufacturer, Vitamix is working on two competing goals at the same time. The resale value of Vitamix products on second-hand market, such as Ebay, are correspondingly high. According to Jodi Berg, the CEO of Vitamix, there are even devices that are over 50 years old and are still in use.

First class service

If something does break or a complaint is made about a Vitamix blender, the first-class customer service takes effect. Vitamix offers a 5 to 10 year warranty for private use of a Vitamix blender. You can find more information about the Vitamix warranty on the corresponding product pages.

Hello,
can I also juice with the Vitamix ?

Warm regards,
Bettina

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Bettina,

basically, you cannot juice with a Vitamix. The Vitamix homogenizes the ingredients to a mass, while juicing separates liquid and solid.

However, you can use a Vitamix with a nut milk bag to remove the solids. However, the result is obviously not quite as good as if you use a slow juicer. And with the Vitamix, in most cases, you will be forced to add a little water to help the blender blades grip. This is not necessary with the slow juicer and accordingly the juice is also more concentrated.

Kind regards

Vegetable smoothies and porridge are no challenge for the Vitamix E310. They turn out wonderfully creamy and fine.

Hello,

yes, there is a selection of containers for the Vitamix VM0109, which was listed as "Vitamix TNC 5200" in our company.

I am interested in the Vitamix 750
Are there two different versions of this?
5/25/2023
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Elisabeth,

thank you for your inquiry. We offer the Vitamix Pro 750 exclusively in the color pearl gray. In addition, you can purchase the Pro 750 in a set with one or more matching additional containers: The 1.4 liter container Smart for smaller preparation quantities, the Vitamix grinding container Smart for grinding any cereals or also coffee and/or the Vitamix Aer Disc. The purchase in a set is of course cheaper than the individual purchase of an additional container.

Kind regards,
Carla

Hello,

I have an older Vitamix Pro model and with it the 1.4l container and the grinding container. Is there a trick when I want to grind nuts? It always remains larger pieces there and a part is already somewhat sticky and remains at the bottom, so that overall the nuts also no longer move much. I want an even grinding result for baking cookies for example. Or is the Vitamix not so good for this and a food processor would be the better alternative?
Thank you and best regards

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Jana,

thank you very much for your comment.
I always grind my nut flour with the Vitamix. However, in several tranches of 100-150 g, so that the nuts do not settle at the bottom of the container as described by you

Best regards,
Carla

Hello,

We own the Vitamix Creations (predecessor of the 5200?) and I'm looking for a significantly smaller container (for sauces). Is there a suitable attachment available?

Thank you and best regards,
Petra Stanislav

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Petra,

Thank you for your inquiry. For the Vitamix Creations, a smaller container that would fit is the 0.9-liter container. It is significantly smaller than the 2-liter container, but it allows you to produce only slightly smaller quantities.

Best regards,

Carla

Hello Helmut,

Thank you for your question. All Vitamix blenders come with a BPA-free Tritan plastic container - there is no suitable glass alternative available.

Good day,

Eight years ago, my husband and I purchased the TNC 5200. It was one of the best decisions we've made in our lives! We mainly use it to make green smoothies and we are extremely satisfied with it. Now, we are in need of a new container, and I already anticipate that everything will go smoothly.

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Kirsten,

Thank you for your comment.
It's great to hear that you're so satisfied with your Vitamix TNC 5200. It's also my daily companion in the kitchen. Simply brilliant and reliable.

Hello, I really like the old Vitamix Blenders like PRO 750 and TNC 5200.
What is the best and more powerful between the 2 please?

A3500 is better and more powerful ?

I would order from France so I can have the 7 years warranty from you or either from Wismer ? (Official Vitamix French Distributor)

Many thanks.

Henri

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hi Henri,

Thanks for your request.
In our opinion, the Vitamix Pro 750 is the best smoothie maker - especially for green smoothies.They turn out wonderfully creamy and fine! The Vitamix TNC 5200 comes very close to creaminess - its strength is that it comes with a 2-liter container in the Standard Edition, which can make small as well as large quantities of all popular blender preparations - from smoothies to hummus and pestos to nicecream.

Just like the Vitamix Pro 750, the Vitamix A3500i scores with the creamiest green smoothies. Both blenders have a similar container, which is why the A3500i also requires a minimum preparation volume of 750 ml for viscous preparations such as nicecream or almond butter.

However, the A3500i has received a few upgrades: its container is dishwasher safe and has container detection technology - means the blender can only be started when the container is in place with the lid engaged.
In addition, the Vitamix A3500i has a total warranty of 10 years - the other two models have a 7-year warranty.
Of course, you receive the full guarantee when buying from France.

In case you have any other questions feel free to get in touch again!
Best regards,
Carla

Hello, with a Vitamix Pro 750 (or 300) can I also use the container, especially the dry container, from the TNC?

Both the Vitamix Pro 300 and the Vitamix Pro 750 are compatible with the Vitamix Dry Grains Container Classic.

Sandra
Hello!

After using my Omniblend V mixer and realizing that it cannot handle dry ingredients (nuts, spices, etc.), I am in search of a new blender with a motor that doesn't overheat and doesn't require constant addition of liquid. I would like to process nuts and spices, make spreads, hummus, ice cream, etc. I might also want to chop chocolate or grind coffee beans. I've been reading and researching, but I'm unsure which Vitamix model to choose. Should I go for the Ascent 2500i, Pro 500, or another model? And do I need a specific container for dry ingredients? I would greatly appreciate your specific advice.
5/6/2021
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Sandra,
Thank you for your inquiry.
High-speed blenders are specialists when it comes to blending multiple ingredients with a bit of liquid into a smooth or chunky mixture. They are best suited for making smoothies and shakes. They can also be used to prepare hummus, ice cream, or even grind coffee.
If your main focus is on making dry, solid doughs or consistencies without the addition of liquid, as you mentioned, then a food processor would be a better choice. Not only your Omniblend, but also a Vitamix blender will activate their heat protection feature in such cases. However, if you still want to use a high-speed blender for preparations like energy balls, it will require patience and experimentation, as the heat protection feature may come into play.

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
Best regards,
Carla

Hello! I purchased the Livington Fitmix Smoothie Maker in 2015 and have been very satisfied with it. Yesterday, while cutting a pumpkin, it turned out to be too hard, as a plastic part (underneath the large container) broke. This means that the motor block won't work without this piece. Can I order it as a replacement part? The retailer says no. Regards, Ingrid

Sabine
Hello! I am in search of a Vitamix or a food processor, and I am now completely undecided. I want to make tuna spread with margarine/butter, nice cream with frozen bananas, and energy balls with dates. Can the Vitamix handle this, or will the butter/margarine and dates stick? Thank you in advance!
4/30/2020
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Sabine,

Thank you for your question.
If you primarily want to prepare dough or solid, sticky ingredients like dates for energy balls, I definitely recommend a food processor. A high-performance blender is and remains a specialist for blending liquid ingredients. It also handles viscous consistencies like hummus, pesto, applesauce, and liquid pancake batters well. However, its weakness is definitely solid doughs without the addition of liquids. Therefore, I would not recommend it for making spreads with dates and nuts.

Best regards,
Carla

Patricia Rykena
Hello!
I can't decide which Vitamix is right for us. From nut butter, hummus, nice cream, and raw food cakes to smoothies, I make everything for us (2 adults + 2 children). Either I need additional containers or I feel like I have to compromise on performance. Can you help me with that??? Many greetings, Patricia
3/23/2020
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Patricia,

Thank you for your question.
I regularly make all the blender preparations you mentioned, and I use the Vitamix TNC 5200 - for over 8 years now! The included container is an absolute all-rounder - perfect for both large and small quantities. This is great, for example, when you don't want to make 1 liter of nice cream or only need 300 ml of pesto.

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
Best regards,
Carla

Tanja
Hello,

I would like to primarily prepare smaller quantities that will rarely exceed 300 ml. I want to be able to easily make nut butter, ice cream, and creamy smoothies. Which Vitamix model is right for me? Thank you!
2/18/2020
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Tanja,

Thank you for your question.

With these requirements, I definitely recommend the Vitamix E310: With its 1.4-liter container, it is perfectly suitable for your preparation quantities. However, please note that the minimum amount for making ice cream and nut butter is around 400 ml.

Best regards,
Carla

Doesn't the extra attachment from the Ascent series, the 225ml kit, work well for small portions? I have a similar decision dilemma: I also need small quantities.

Hello Verena,

Thank you for your question.

The Cups&Bowls for the Vitamix Ascent blenders are specifically designed for small batch preparations. They work great for dressings, dips, pesto, or even grinding coffee or grains.

Hello! I think the Vitamix (E310) can do everything I need, but can it also grate/chop chocolate? Rarely, but sometimes I need that for baking... Thank you! Best regards, Connie

Hello Connie,

Thank you for your question. I haven't personally tried grating or chopping chocolate in the blender, but I can imagine that it is possible, especially if the chocolate is hard. I would suggest giving it a try.

Hello! First of all, this is a great and informative website! Thank you very much! Now, my question: Will there be accessories available for the Vitamix Pro 750 during the 7-year warranty period? Or will the Ascent series soon replace the older models?
Thank you very much for a brief answer!
Lisa
7/24/2019
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Lisa,

Thank you for the compliment and the interesting question!

Unfortunately, we don't have a crystal ball to answer this question accurately, but let's look at some facts:

1. The E310 in Germany and the entire Explorian Series in the US were released after the Ascent Series (also in the US) and feature the same container design as the Pro 750. It is therefore likely that the "old" container design will continue and corresponding containers and tampers will be offered.

2. The accessory business is attractive for Vitamix. Vitamix buyers usually only purchase one blender, and that's it. If additional containers are purchased after the warranty period, Vitamix benefits. During the warranty period, the container is typically covered. And if the motor base or container fails during the warranty period and no spare parts are available, according to the current warranty terms for the Pro 750, either the purchase price will be refunded or an equivalent new model will be provided.

3. Unlike the Ascent containers, the older ones are the same internationally. This means that even if Vitamix were to focus sales activities in Germany on the Ascent Series, as a retailer, we would still have the option to import accessory parts from other countries where they are still available or to order them directly from Vitamix.

Best regards,

Carla
