Review: I love the settings - turn it on and walk away! - I replaced my 10-12 year old Vitamix with the Vitamix Ascent . It seemed like such a splurge, but as I use it every day at least once, it's a no-brainer so long as it holds up as long as my old one. It is BPA-FREE which is important. The only reason I gave up on my old was was that i mindlessly took the lid off while blending & insereted the plunger which got shredded. The motor was never the same, although it did function. Out of warranty, I'll pass it on to someone else who can pay for the repair. I was ready for an upgrade. I bought the smaller 48 oz. container (my old one isn't a match for the Ascent) as I'm generally making a smoothie for one person. I hear the larger container doesn't blend as well if there's not enough volume inside. The 64 oz container is collecting dust in the basement. Sadly, you have to buy the 48oz container separately. Ding for that. I didn't know how much I would really like the programmable settings. It's my FAVORITE feature. I don't have to babysit my smoothie and adjust the speed; I just press the button and do my kitchen clean up, get a glass on the counter, and POUR! BOOM! 1) SMOOTHIE setting: I add a touch more water than recipes call for so it doesn't get stuck. It handles frozen fruit well, leafy greens, salad smoothies - YES! 2) SPREADS setting: Hummus does pretty good - I add a bit more olive oil to keep it moving. 3) CLEAN Setting: I squirt a few drops of dish soap with a half carafe of water & turn it on if I've been blending something with oil or onion or other strong flavor; again, it turns itself off when finished. 3) MANUAL SELECT SETTING with the BLENDING BOWl: A) Great for chopping nuts. B) I used the smaller 1 cup Blending Bowl to make a mixture of soaked dates, cocoa and cashews for "truffles", it stalled a lot; I had to unscrew it 6-8X to reduce the amount of mixture at one time. I may see what happens if I use the mid-size container. However... 4) I LOVED their scraper tool to remove the sticky yummy truffle mix. A spendy piece of plastic, but it scrapes under the tines and the sides of the larger containers really well. It gets a fair amount of use surprisingly. 5) DRY INGREDIENTS CONTAINER: I used this for flax seeds to turn them into flax meal - PERFECT! So much cheaper and fresher than buying it at a store. I will try it in the smaller Blender Bowls & see how that goes. So, after a few months of daily dedicated use, I'm a fan of the Ascent; given the programmable settings & the options to add Smart Accessories like the smaller Blending Bowls... worth the extra. I'd do it again. No regrets.
Review: This big blend bowl is great for large batches. - I am obsessed with my Vitamix blender! The large container is great for big batches, not so great for smaller ones because of the powerful blending capabilities, smaller batches get swirled to the side and off of the blades. I purchased the 36 oz blender bowl, the 2 smoothie containers and 2 8 oz blender bowls and the scrapper that helps reach underneath and around the blades and sides to get every last drop out. Yes, it is a big expense, and yes, it is worth all the hype I heard about the Vitamix for years. My last blender stayed under my cabinet to be pulled out every so often. This one however stays on top and gets used every day. I use it for the normal smoothies, for sure, but since moving to a plant based way of eating, I use it to make sauces out of raw cashews, whir up a batch of almond milk, chop up all the ingredients for yummy soups and even have group my own nut butter. NO, I'm not one of the wacky Vegans, just a normal gal who is totally into eating more naturally. this blender makes this work easy. I've never had a creamy sauce like this from a blender before, smooth as silk with no need to soak the nuts in advance. You will not be disappointed in this purchase, once you get over the sticker shock. The saying, "you get what you pay for" is true for this blender purchase.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ... came with the 64 oz wet container which is wonderful for making soups and larger portions
*by L***M on April 13, 2015*

My vitamix came with the 64 oz wet container which is wonderful for making soups and larger portions,but way to big for making a smoothy for one or two people, so I ordered this 32 oz wet container on amazon.com. It works perfectly! No issues at all. Since it is so much smaller than the 64 oz container, I dont think it really needs the rubber grip on the handles.I prefer this less bulky feel. Also, it is very easy to clean. Just fill with a couple drops of dish soap and warm water and then blend, empty and rinse as the directions say. Very easy! I did get a small spatula to reach the bottom near blades. Any recipe left at bottom comes out easly with the smaller spatula. I was worried it might be wobbly on base as some people have mentioned. True it doesn't sit on the base as snug as larger container does,but it is still secure enough and works just fine. No problems at all with it tipping or wobbling. I am so glad I purchased this smaller container. It does not come with a tamper, but since I did get a tamper with my 32 oz dry container, I did not need to purchase another one. I have an 18 inch backslash, but my kitchen cabinets only allow 17 inch clearance due to the extra trim work at bottom of our cabinets. Sigh… So, I have to tilt the container a bit in order to store it on top of my vitamix 7500 G series machine. Not the companies fault since it does say 18" clearance needed. For the most part, I don't store too much on my counter tops so I don't mind putting the container in a cupboard.
