Vitamix Explorian Blender with Programs, Professional-Grade, 64 oz. Low-Profile Container, Slate (Renewed Premium)

I truly don't have anything bad to say about my Vitamix Blender. It functions spectacularly. Over the years, I've purchased other brands, and none of them compared to the standards of Quality of this Vitamix, EXPLORIAN SERIES.I do however have two minor, yet Important detail suggestions:The 'Lock' and (2) 'Unlock' Symbols on the Top Black part of the Lid, could be done in a more distinguishable and perhaps, contrasting color, other than the Black lid, itself. This might be much easier for an end user in her or his ability when it comes to using the Vitamix.The Same goes for the small clear plastic top knob.The 'Arrows' that point in opposite directions.2. On the clear Container itself, the 'Measurement guide' lines have a similar situation. Not easy to see!This is Not a complaint. Instead, it's a simple suggestion that, I believe would help Persons like me, with the usage of this machine.I use my Vitamix everyday, since I got it, and I highly recommend it to anyone, perhaps looking to purchase a similar machine. This is the “Real Thing” in many aspects!R.C.

Quality blender, I researched blenders and purchased a refurbished one. Worth the wait.

My son bought this for me and I love it. I make soups and smoothies with it. Easy to clean, good quality and quiet noise level.

I saved money by buying this refurbished blender. It looks completely new and works like a dream.

My machine has only been used 4 times. And the blender seems to be struggling with frozen fruits for smoothies. The fruits were small chunks and they sat on the counter for a little bit before I put them in the blender and added more liquids. I thought this blender was the “beast” of this appliance. I feel like I got a defective one. It literally sounds like the motor is straining and I ruled out the frozen fruits being too big of chunks/too frozen. My Ninja bullet ran stronger than this. Im so confused based on the reviews and research I looked up before buying. Truly disappointing and feel like I got ripped off.

Very well made, easy to operate and high quality appliance. If you are new to Vitimix it has a very high rpm in some programs that can be alarming if you are not familiar with its use

There are blenders, and then there is vita mix. Liquify anything

I was initially hesitant about buying the Creami at first , having read the reviews. However after reading a lengthy one from anogher purchaser I took a chance. His instructions were so precise and extremely helpful. There is a learning curve. It always takes two churns to get the best product. And you have to make sure to fill the cup just below the max fill line. It takes a few tries to get the best results. Even the ‘almost’ batches are still good. I bought extra cups to ensure I have a continuous batch ready to go.The only reasons I gave 4 stars is due to the loud noise and having to churn the ingredients twice. My blender is equally as loud and the Creami result is so creamy and delicious that, to me, it is a small inconvenience. Besides it’s much faster than my other traditional ice cream machines, takes up less space, is quicker and, most importantly, the finished product doesn’t have to be put in the freezer prior to eating.
