Product Review

The health benefits of eating less processed, less refined foods are well documented. However, preparing whole foods wasn't always the easiest or best-tasting choice. Owning a Vitamix TurboBlend VS changes all that forever. With the flip of a switch, you discover that creating delicious and healthy raw, vegan and vegetarian meals is easier that ever imagined. Variable Speed Control offers unlimited versatility in the home kitchen in one smooth motion. The precision crated stainless steel blades are laser-cut, one piece assembly. Sealed ball bearing prevent food and water penetration. Superior cutting edges join forces with a pulverizing process. A powerful 2 Peak Motor Horsepower propels the blade tip speed up to 240-Mph to blend even the toughest ingredients. The BPA-Free, Shatter-proof Container with 64-Ounce true blending capacity is designed to create a powerful vortex to force ingredients up from the blades and back down the center for thorough processing. Container to base, metal to metal coupling for maximum durability and long life. The spill-proof Lid with Removable Lid Plug seals securely allowing ingredients to be added while process. Tamper design allows for processing thick, dense ingredients and prevents air pockets from forming.

Yes, the Vitamix is an expensive blender at $500. It simply can't be compared to any other though - it is an amazing product. All of the claims are true - you can put just about anything in it and turn into a consistent smooth liquid. To be honest I'm not a big veggie guy, yet I know the importance of consuming them - there is a ton of research that validates a plant-based diet is MUCH healthier than SAD (Standard American Diet). I've had the Vitamix for about a week and have had fun making fruit/veggie smoothies (that taste good - even with lots of green stuff!). The TurboBlend VS is the one to go for - the "cookbook" that comes with it is full of great ideas.

If you're serious about using a Vitamix, you need the variable speed (VS). And I don't mean just high and low, but 1-10, in addition to high and low. With that, you can make cole sole in 2 seconds (no kidding!) and a lot of other things that you couldn't with more limitations, because different things require different speeds, sometimes increasing incrementally.

This is the same price, package and warranty that you get if you buy directly from Vitamix. I was tempted to rate it only 4 stars, because it is way overpriced. With an Amazon Store card, it's interest-free IF you pay it off within 6 months -- and that's vital, because whopping interest applies if you don't. Vitamix has a payment plan, too, but you have to pay more when you order and have only 3 months after that to pay it off. So Amazon's deal breaks it up into 6 smaller payments, which makes it the most affordable way for many of us to get one of these machines. There is nothing else quite like them.

This blender is incredible!!! I use it every morning for green smoothies and in the evenings for all sorts of delicious raw soups and salsas. It pulverizes everything to an extremely fine and enjoyable consistency. It even reduces the size of small seeds in fruits. I am satisfied and ecstatic about the purchase. I would recommend this product to ANYONE looking for a healthy lifestyle and versatility in the kitchen.
