The low-profile 64-ounce plastic blending container feels fairly durable and fits more easily under cabinets but doesn’t blend as smoothly. This model won’t work well for smaller quantities and doesn’t have any single-serve features.

The four-tip blade assembly is made of hardened stainless steel.

There aren’t any presets, but you will have a pulse feature and a choice of 10 variable speeds, and we found the switch and dial interface somewhat clunky but very functional. The black plastic body comes in a choice of red, black, or white accents, and the all-metal drive has a strong, cool-running 2.2-horsepower motor. This blender combines many of Vitamix’s best qualities, with a very powerful motor and a great warranty.Īt 13 pounds, this blender is on the heavier side, but it’s also moderately priced and powerful. Our overall favorite is the Vitamix 7500 Blender, a sturdy model with plenty of capacity and quite a few speed options. Like other Vitamix blenders, this one has variable speed controls as well as a pulse button for ultimate control of everything you blend. The controls are a touchscreen for a sleek appearance and easy cleaning.

An integrated timer turns the blender off when time runs out, so you can walk away and know that you’ve blended for exactly the right time. It comes with a 64-ounce container, but other containers are available separately that work with this system. The motor base has wireless connectivity, so it can read the size of the container that is in use, and adjust the program settings and blending times appropriately. The app is compatible with both iOS and Android devices and it can also work with the Perfect Kitchen Scale for precise measuring as you cook. It also pairs with the Vitamix Perfect Blend app that has 17 different programs and includes over 500 recipes. One of the smartest of the Vitamix blenders, this blender has five pre-programmed settings to help you perfectly blend smoothies, hot soups, puree baby food and frozen desserts, and clean your blender.
