Product Review: Vitamix Professional Series 750

Company: Amazon via seller Vitamix

Price Range: $650-$750

Who Would Buy This: 

Those shopping for a top of the line high power blender. The Vitamix Professional Series 750 offers some of the most powerful features on the market. Anyone who enjoys fruit smoothies, green smoothies, icy drinks, sauces, soups, or blended bean dips will find this to be a suitable blender.

Purpose of Product:

With up to a maximum of 2.2 horsepower in this blender, any blended task with ease. This blender includes a variable speed dial, so the amount of blending power is up to the user to apply. The Vitamix Professional Series 750 offers a whole new level of ease with the programmed digital blending functions.

Pros:

Unleash a whole new level of power in the kitchen with the latest model released by the Vitamix company. The Vitamix Professional Series 750 offers 2.2 horsepower worth of peak power. Along with this, the Vitamix possesses a 1200 watt motor. Most high end blenders are only possible of reaching a 2 horsepower peak blending speed.

Discover a whole new function of blenders with programmed blending options. Vitamix now simplifies blending by including settings for blending functions for set periods of time and power. Program functions include smoothie, frozen dessert, soup, and puree, and there is a rinse function. The smoothie function and frozen dessert both are made relatively the same, this is most likely due to the fact that ingredients for frozen/icy items are similar (frozen bananas and frozen fruit in both). My favorite function is the soup setting as I can literally set it and forget it and have a perfectly smooth hot soup made. Puree is interesting, but I have always preferred direct input when making sauces. Finally, the rinse function is great because you can get the basic cleaning of the blender done while you go off and clean u other dishes in the sink. 

A whole new blender size now exists for the Vitamix Professional Series 750. While the model contains a 64 oz size blender, the design is totally different from the previous generation of blenders. In order to hold 64 ounces on past Vitamix blenders, the blender size was tall and thin. This new Vitamix blender is much wider and shorter than previous 64 oz blender sizes. Overall this is much better as the blender now can more easily fit inside a cabinet. Also, if you ever need to scoop things out of the blender like hummus, it is much easier to stick your hand and a scooping utensil within it.

Variable speeds allow for even the toughest jobs in this blender. Make nut butters silky smooth without having constant hiccups in the blending process. Smoothies with lots of ice in them are blended easily thanks to the wider base and powerful motor. When you want a thick hummus or bean dip made, this blender offers the best experience you can find. Do not worry abut being forced to water down all of your blender creations in order to get something to blend, the motor and wide base will allow for dryer conditions to blend.

Cons:

64 ounces is much lager than you may imagine. When I first made the switch from a 48oz Vitamix container to a 64oz container, I could not fully utilize all 64 ounces. Even when I consumed green smoothies every morning for a period of months at the 48oz serving size, I could not fully graduate to the 64oz size. Other than smoothies, I never even used the full 48 ounces at one time with my Vitamix. There are few reasons I can think of that would require a 64oz blender for a single blending job.

Guarantee:

Vitamix offers a 7 year warranty on its motor base and blending container. This will cover both any faults in manufacturing and any problems that come up from normal wear and tear. Vitamix is truly one of the premier companies when it comes to customer service.

The Amazon A-Z Guarantee is the best guarantee in the market. In the event that the product is not delivered, delivered in a broken condition, or is not meeting the quality expectations of the buyer, the item may be returned to Amazon for a full refund. A 30 day window exists to file a claim to Amazon over any problem that may come up with the product.

Value for money?

For anyone that ever wanted a programmable blender, the Vitamix Professional Series 750 offers the best option on the market. Anyone with a previous Vitamix model really should not upgrade to the 750. If you are interested in owning a Vitamix, the 750 Series provides a dependable tool that will automate a lot of the work behind the blending process.
