Vitamix 5300 Review

Want to feel the power and blend the crap out of stuff!  Then the Vitamix 5300 could be the right choice for you.  My wife and I purchased this version of Vitamix family of blenders for our at home use.  The blender show ½ classic ½ next generation in its design.  As with all Vitamix blenders the power and torque this thing puts off is out of this world.  It will blend and destroy almost anything you can put into it.  This “C” series was launch in 2007 by Vitamix and has satisfied many an owner since then.
​
Pros:
Controls: Easy to understand and easy to use.  A good tip is to always start on a lower speed and work your way up so that you get a mix that does not get stuck.
Design:  Just simplistic and stunning.  As stated above this is 50% classic and 50% modern in design.
64-oz Container:  This is the right size for a family of 1 to 4 people.  The 64oz has you covered for most undertakings.  Also it is considered a low profile to help you store it under your cabinets on the counter.
 
Cons:
Price:  As the saying goes you get what you pay for.  Quality is expensive, but worth it.  Right now on Amazon these are selling new for $269.95… Here is the link so you can get your own VITAMIX 5300.
Noise:  Yeah it is loud, but it is also awesome to watch.  So maybe don’t run it once the kids have gone to bed, but make it a family affair instead to prepare drinks and meals with it.  Of course our favorite is green smoothies!
