[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A solid, professional grade stainless steel essential tool that every kitchen should have. A tool that has made preparing meals and even shakes so much easier. No more rummaging through your cabinets to find your blender and the clean up involved with that after. Its fast and easy to use. My wife who absolutely enjoys cooking and preparing delicious meals for her family has fallen in love with this Immersion blender. She has been making salsas, using it in making soups, pancake batters, tomatoe sauce and other delicious meals. The only thing that she was not a fan of was the lack of accessories, or none thereof. Now don't get me wrong, this is a good appliance but it could have been so much better if some accessories such as a whisker or a beater would have made this a beast and at the same time eliminated the need for additional items in the kitchen. Nonetheless a good product still. Let's go over some of the specs of the Vitamix Immersion Blender. - Good build quality. The Immersion blender has an absolute solid feel to it and a beautiful stainless steel finish. - 5 Speed operation - An amazing 625-Watt motor - An extremely sharp 4 Pronged blade - Easy to use one handed operation, so you can quickly add ingredients without the need to stop blending. - Comes in easy to assemble to piece. The top motor/handle is NOT WATERPROOF, but the bottom Immersion/blender portion is ok to wash or throw in the dishwasher. - One best feature about this blender and why my wife fell in love with this was that there is almost none to very little vibration in this. Now we have had other Immersion blenders as well and in most you can feel the vibration and after prolonged use the hand starts to get numb and that was not the case with this. All in all this is an absolutely must have product and we would definitely recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been holding off on getting an immersion blender because I have a handheld mixer, a smoothie blender, a food processor and a regular blender. Boy am I sad I waited so long to get this immersion blender. It’s awesome! Super easy to use. Nice and solid which is helpful when holding and blending - not too lightweight that it moves easily. The width is the perfect grip to hold onto with either hand. The bell guard on the bottom protects my pots which is a necessity with my induction stovetop cookware. There are five speeds which completely blend everything in seconds. It helped to save lots of time with my soups, desserts, drinks and homemade master tonics. All I do at the end is twist it apart and wash the top. It’s worth the money! I should have gotten one sooner.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I got this thinking would I really use it while owning a vitamix blender? Yes I do use it if im not in the mood to to bring out the blender. Due to the lack of countertop space I find myself using this when I'm making something just for myself. Quick soup, slushie or a smoothie so far. Now it take some practice to use the right way I'm getting the hang of it and having it at a slight angle helps . Great thing about having this is not having to buy processed foods, I have the ability to make what I want and how I want it rather quick and easy. The kids want a slushie? Well if you go buy one they are packed with crazy amounts of sugar. I can make it sweet enough where my son would like it, on top of that add fresh fruit well by that point it's a smoothie lol. Having tools like these has shown me to save money and time. This thing blended the ice like it was nothing. Also made a cup or corn atole, that's like oatmeal but instead use corn and it worked well didn't have a piece of corn in there. Super easy to clean some soap and water on the blade part not the motor. Doesn't use up much space in my cabinet. Well made has good weight to it and easy to use with one hand, use 2 fingers one to start motor and the other one to change speeds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Vitamix Immersion blender is a very diverse utensil. Not only can you blend up eggs or make a shake with it but it will also chop up vegetables and fruits to make juice. The Vitamix immersion blender is a large and well-built device that looks to be built to last for years. Despite it's large size the design of the handle and the way your hand goes under the top put your fingers in the perfect position to increase or decrease the speeds which are easily identified with an array of lights on the top. The on-off button is also right there where your finger sits on the front of the blender where your hand naturally sits and your fingers wrap around. It is very intuitive and easy to use and does a good job of chopping and blending whatever you need. My overall impression of the Vitamix Immersion blender is that it is high quality and practical addition to any kitchen that will make your life easier. It's diverse multi-faceted use factor definitely makes it a worthy addition to any kitchen and one that will serve to eliminate the number of tools you need to complete your food preparation tasks simplifying your life. I would say to anyone that does not have an immersion blender the Vitamix is a top choice and a device that every kitchen should have going forward!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This one has surpassed my expectations. Well worth the money. Doesn’t scratch.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This could be one of the most powerful hand-held blenders. The motor is rated at 625 Watts, which is close to what some full-size blenders use. It's all wrapped in stainless except from the bottom so it doesn't scratch pots. The bell-shaped base helps it be more stable while blending, and reduces splash. There are two buttons on the handle: Pulse button for power and speed, which is controlled by clicking on it and white bars light up on the top of the handle to indicate the speed. It always starts on the slowest speed. The base is held firmly and has to be rotated to open. It's a bit slippery to open. Works better using a rubber jar grip. Because it's so powerful, it can be on the heavy side. There are four blades on the base instead of the usual two on most handheld blenders. The base diameter is about 3" so be warner that it does not fit through most mason jars that are 3" wide. So we used a pitcher instead to make smoothies. The base is over 9" long and the motor assembly is 9", making it somewhat long and can be used on bigger cooking pots. To make smoothies, we found out that using it on speeds 2 and 3 works best. It crushes ice with ease, although as with other hand blenders, the space between the top of the assembly and the blades is not much so crushed ice gets stuck on it, if crushing ice alone. Works fine when mixed with other liquids of course. The base is easy to rinse. Overall very satisfied. Although we used it for about a week, seems very well built, although it's built in China, not on Vitamix's blender factory in Ohio.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having never tried to make soups before, i was pleasantly surprised how easy this was to use. It's fairly light and easy to use and maneuver. I even had my 8 year old son using it while i got the rest of the meal ready. On the slowest setting, it made quick work of our vegetables and the low speed made sure it was easy to control. Pictured is a carrot and ginger soup. Because its in two pieces it makes it fairly easy to clean. Although, one concern is i don't know if it'd be so easy for other kinds of foods you use it for, like for something with a thicker texture like a smoothie or mashed potatoes. I'd personally prefer a removable blade to have more confidence that it's being properly cleaned, but so far, have no reason to suspect it isn't

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You get what you pay for. This Vitamix immersion blender is extraordinary. It is extremely powerful, balanced, and well thought out. From a hard rubber tip guard to protect your container to the rubber hand grip to the easy to separate halves for easy cleaning and more. Also, their website provides dozens of recipes to create if you need any ideas as well as other tips and information. Anyway, this was simply an awesome purchase for us.

I just got my Vitamix immersion blender. It was easy to put this blender into the soup pot and push the button instead of pouring it into a standard blender. I was so impressed at how quickly I got a beautiful creamy soup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Vitamix immersion blender is something I now realize I should have already owned! I have always owned a standard type of blender and 90% of the time hated the fact it used soo much of my counter space but now I have a tool that can tackle the same job and is 1/4 of the size. As soon as you open the box you can feel that this is a quality well built kitchen tool, all stainless steel and 100% SOLID! I was somewhat skeptical that it would have the power to do the same things as my rugged KitchenAid but was quickly taught a lesson that it would not be an issue. There are 5 speed settings that range from the ability to mix a quick drink to crushing ice and having a smoothie in a flash. I am pleased that this unit is quieter than a regular blender and fits great in my hand, you can adjust the speed without ever stopping as well as on/off. The next greatest thing is the ability to twist off the lower blade attachment and stick in the dishwasher instead of having 3 or 4 pieces to wash with a regular blender. I would TOTALLY recommend this item to anyone and for the quality is a very reasonably priced tool.
