Vitamix5-Speed Immersion Blender, 625-Watt Motor, One-Handed Operation, 5 ft cord, Stainless Steel/Black

After purchasing some cheaper immersion blenders that only last a little while I decided to upgrade. This is more expensive but you can tell why. For the motor is so powerful and doesn’t struggle to break things up. This is a lot heavier than others but in a substantial quality sort of way. It can split into two parts so it can fit into a drawer. Vitamix makes awesome stuff.

This Vitamix immersion blender doesn’t mess around. My old stick blender used to take forever—it would hum, sputter, and gently suggest things blend. This one? It dives into soups, smoothies, and sauces like it's training for a culinary triathlon.We're talking seconds, not minutes. It’s like the blender equivalent of a Formula 1 pit crew: powerful, efficient, and shockingly quiet for something that absolutely pulverizes anything in its path. I once blinked and my chunky soup was suddenly velvety bisque. Magic.It’s solid and well-built too—none of that wobbly, plastic “I might die mid-blend” feeling. The one-handed operation is smooth and the 5-speed control actually makes a difference. The 5-foot cord means I don’t have to do blender yoga just to reach the pot.If you’re tired of blending like it’s 1995, upgrade to this beast. It’s quiet, classy, and gets the job done like a kitchen ninja with a deadline.

I love this, day 1. Already made a smoothie with frozen blueberries, kale and kefir, it powered thru the frozen berries and tough kale with no problem, in a single stainless steel cup - super smooth result. Mainly interested in making soups and blending in the pot (tomato, butternut squash, potato, carrot, pumpkin), and dips like hummus and artichoke. Love that it won't scratch my pots. This replaces a cheaper immersion blender that was returned after sucking liquid up into the shaft toward the motor. The Vitamix is much quieter and much better at liquefying fibrous kale than that one. Cleanup is super easy, just detach the blade wand, run under water to rinse, spray Dawn Powerwash on it, quick brush scrub, rinse and you're done. Happy with this handheld- saved me $200+ more for a stand blender, much easier to clean. It has the same blade as a fullsize Vitamix blender. Better for small spaces also.

Wow! This is a fabulous immersion blender true to the Vitamix brand!! I’m a happy owner of a Vitamix Pro 750 (used daily since 2012). This little, cute immersion blender has so much power!My boyfriend presented it to me as a Christmas gift but knew better than waiting until then to present it to me (because I already used it yesterday to make us pasta sauce from whole tomatoes, shallots, fresh basil and spices. It took me 45 seconds on level 2 to make dreamy sauce.I’m a power smoothie person and knew the true test would be my breakfast smoothie this morning. I layered the ingredients as instructed in the booklet (which is the opposite of what I do in my 750 Pro): cacao powder, sesame seeds, roasted peanuts, medjool dates, banana, water. I was skeptical it could produce a smooth smoothie in my actual big smoothie glass. Alas, I turned on the power, immersed this beauty into the ingredients as far down as it would go, started at speed 1 as they suggested and then cranked it slowly to speed 5. Ha! Speed 5 is so powerful I couldn’t move it so I put it down to 3 and blended for about 30 seconds. I was impressed! It made a creamy, dreamy smoothie! It wasn’t as smooth as my 750 Pro mainly because I still need to get the hang of moving the immersion blender around, up and down and figuring out the best speed and duration.It is awesome that I can easily clean it in a glass with water and a few drops of dish liquid in 10 seconds!I LOVE this immersion blender and look forward to making soups, sauces, nut butters and traveling with it once this pandemic is over.Thank you for another fabulous product, Vitamix family :-)—————December 20, 2020 update.I’ve used the immersion blender 1-3 times a day since December 7. My smoothies are very smooth. I made carrot/ginger/cashew soup yesterday and it was creamy, smooth and blended on speed 3 for about 45 seconds.I made coconut milk hot cacao with spices this evening and used speed 3. After blending, I heated it and it was smooth and delicious on a cold day.I also made fresh, chipped ginger /freshly squeezed Meyer lemon juice using speed 5 and the juice came out pretty smooth. It had ginger pulp which I expected.What I really love is that I can blend it in any container (as long as it’s wide enough) so I don’t dirty as many dishes. I also like that I can blend snall quantities that are too small to blend in my Vitamix 750 Pro.I’m very happy with it.

I've had a counter top Vita Mix blender for over 20 years and was so pleased to find this immersion blender by Vita Mix. This is a great piece of kitchen equipment, the brand name is again backed with high quality. This runs smoothly, fits easily into my hand, the settings are easy to navigate, the design around the blade is excellent and causes little to no splatter. Easy to assemble, clicks easily into place, and also easy to take apart to clean.Excellent product!

I love the power of the blender that gets stuff blended quickly and smoothly. I've had it for over 2 years now and it seems like it will last a long, long time. The blades are sharp and have a protective, rubber-like housing that prevents a blender bowl or cup from getting scratched. My only complaint is that some of the mix is forced into the protective housing and you need to clean deep into the tight pockets of the "rubber" with each use so as not to trap food in there.

Powerful with the quality you expect from Vitamix. It handles kale in a green smoothie as well as its countertop parent. Fits in almost any container, eliminating the need for a separate prep/drink set up
