You may never see this....but here's my request: Personal blenders that don't need to blend anything more tricky than frozen fruit and kale. I genuinely know hundreds of people (via a kitchen group I belong go) that are looking for personal blenders that combine quality + good value + aesthetics. WHY is it so hard to make something that's appealing like a SMEG (I'm Italian/lived in Italy ) but I question its effectiveness, especially for the high pricepoint.

[@ClifD]

The Nutribullet is unavailable, hope they didn't discontinue. Wonder if there is a newer but at least equivalent version now? Seems the Syvio isn't either. (the two better but reasonably priced blenders on the list)

A big benefit of the Vita-Mix that you don't mention is that it is fully rebuildable. I run a restaurant and we have all Vita-Mix blenders in the kitchen and bar, and the rebuild kits are relatively cheap and replace all wear parts off the motor. You can run these things all day for years and when the clutches start slipping or the teeth on the drive gear get worn, it takes about 5 minutes to replace them and you're back up and running for another year or two. The motor is also pretty much indestructible, so these things are basically immortal. Makes the price a little bit easier to swallow.

[@dlewis9760]

Most home users won't be running them nearly as much as you. The time interval for a breakdown may be an extremely long time. You are correct though. You pay for industrial grade construction and most of the time you will get it.

[@boblove2796]

I'm really sad to hear about the rebuild kits. I've been trying to wear out my 20 year old Vitamix so I can check out newer models. 😞 There is a reason you see Vitamix on so many of the cooking shows.

[@nirvanarocks15]

This one hits close to home. My son was on a blenderized diet for most of his life. After chewing through a number of different food processors and blenders, we finally pulled the trigger on the Vitamix. We picked it up as a factory reconditioned model from a kitchen store at an outlet mall. Full warranty and it only set us back about $250. It looked and operated like brand new. We used this blender for over 13 years and it withstood a lot of use. The power switch failed on us once. Still within the 10 year warranty time period (yes, 10 years), they asked us to send the whole unit with upper jar/lid and everything. We explained what we used the blender for, they had a replacement sent for us a few days later to use as a loaner while they fixed ours. A week and a half later we received our old blender back. it returned to us with the power switch assembly replaced as well as a whole new upper jar (which included a new blade, lid, and tamper). I am assuming that if there were any other internals that needed replacing, they probably did that too. As to this day, it is still running strong. SO, say what you will about the expensive price tag. If you want a blender to withstand the test of time AND be backed by an excellent company with a warranty that beats them all, then Vitamix is the only way to go.

[@Larry-yb7zl]

As a home gardener with a quasi-chef hobby, I decided to splurge on a Vitamix earlier this year. It's a beast for sure. I freeze whole garden tomatoes and can throw them into the blender, frozen, with some spices and other vegetables and create a too-hot-to-eat tomato soup totally by friction in about six minutes. From frozen! Smoothies are great. Blackberry seeds, which I despise, disappear. I have the A3500 model. This is an amazing blender; I have not needed to use the plunger and I have used this machine a lot. One thing you did not cover was the warranty. Vitamix has a full 10 year warranty including the jar and lid. They also pay shipping both directions for warranty repairs as they doubt you will ever need it. I believe they state less than 2% have had an issue. I ordered mine on sale from Macys plus received a $100 credit for opening a cc account so my cost was substantially lower than list, but it is still expensive. First time I have commented. Really enjoy your videos.

[@ProjectFarm]

I own the 750 tested here. Bought directly from Vitamix for $399 on Black Friday. I'd also mention it has a self-cleaning mode, the blades are intentionally not sharpened, it has a power switch on the side. It's massive overkill for most kitchens, but I know people with 30-year-old models running strong. Great video, as always!

[@igbatious]

I'm going on about 10 years now with my Vitamix 5200, just replaced the container, but nothing else. Gets used once a week at least and it's by far the best kitchen appliance I've ever purchased. The initial cost hurts, no doubt. But it pays for itself year after year.

This is fantastic! I’ve gone through many blenders in my time. Everything is plastic and not made with quality. So far the best blender is still my Mom’s Oster blender from the 1970’s. It was thick, robust, and the blades were massive. Also, it has a glass container and still has that yellowing plastic color on the exterior housing. It has stood the test of time and still working to this day. Manufacturers have abandoned that kind of quality. Great work Project Farm!

[@hemiaddiction]

@Project Farm don't forget the Bosch universal + when you do that

[@ramrod132]

If you're interested in KitchenAid, AvE has a good breakdown video. He tends to be a bit crude, but the content is good. The biggest thing I learned from buying a KA Pro 600 is that they really struggle at kneading larger batches of whole wheat or enriched dough like brioche. Their stated capacity is based on very soft white bread loaves; they just don't have the power for large batches or heavy dough. If you are just making cookies, cakes, and icing then you will be fine, but adventurous bread makers will likely run into problems with a Kitchenaid. On the plus side, when you wear the gears down, KA mixers are very modular and easy to repair yourself. As someone who makes bread, if I had to do it again I'd look at the Bosch universal or the Ankarsrum mixer, or bite the bullet and get a Famag.

Thanks for that Todd. 10-ish years I did a similar test for my business and ended up with two Vitamix "Bar Boss" blenders @ $750 each (even though my business does not server alcohol) and two additional containers @ $250 each. What I discovered was having a larger, flatter canister bottom aided the blending action for making smoothies and frappes. My canisters are triangle shaped; I use chunk ice, milk, frappe mix and off we go for 1 minute. I have made tens of thousands of frappes and smoothies. I consider those blenders a corner stone of the business and one of my best purchases.

Wasn't expecting blender comparison, so this was a real treat! I watched quite a few blender comparisons a couple years ago, and came away with two observations: The Ninja is overrated and is only really good at crashing ice, and the Vitmax is expensive, but you really get what you pay for. I bought a Vitamix similar to the one you tested. Makes amazing smoothies. No seeds or bits, everything gets perfectly blended. Fun fact: the heat generated by the blade friction is enough that you can make hot soup with it when blending for six minutes or so.

The first was seemingly of the old metal and large motor design often associated with old American products that simply worked and lasted. Following that, the Hamilton Beach or Oster normal mixers only seemed to last a very short time in our home. The Vitamin was bought at Costco with the original tall design and it has been unbelievably good for about 10 years. The price was well under half of the price you quoted for the Vitamix at that time. Great review and it is nice to see that it still holds up to the competition.

I bought a no frills Vitamix 5300 from Costco in 2017. My speed control knob is better quality than one you reviewed. We make fruit and veggie smoothies daily. This blender is a beast. I paid around $400 at the time I believe. We burned up several cheaper blenders before trying the Vitamix. I was hesitant but glad I bought it now.

completely agree. Even a shootout between blendtec and vitamix would be great. One thing i am on the lookout for, which most of people from India would relate to immediately, is a blender capable of making 'dosa' batter. I ended up buying a $350 machine just to make that single batter as it is a staple for us. Was willing to spend $500 on a single blender if i could avoid buying that $350 wet grinder.

Really solid video, didn't really think there'd be many easy ways to compare blenders that wouldn't be fairly subjective, but you made a great effort.

Part of the issue that isn't measurable within these tests is durability. A cheap blender that has half the cost and half the reliability means you're getting marginally similar performance at approximately the same cost but twice the headache.

I've had two Vitamixes in the last 30 years; raised my 5 kids with them. Nothing could replace a Vitamix. It grinds grain to a fine powder (freeze grain before grinding to reduce lost nutrients due to heat). Makes the best homemade pudding I've ever had. You can make and knead bread dough. You can make hot soup (their tomato soup is my favorite so I always keep roma tomatoes in the freezer just for that). The other blenders feel like toys in comparison. Chopping is instant if you learn how. Amazing! And peanut butter does NOT take 2.5 minutes, I get smooth in 30 seconds; just use the plunger a couple of times until the peanuts go under. And peanuts are the only ingredient. Unlike store-bought, I do not get that horrible oil top layer. Wonderful machine that cannot be replaced. The customer service is top-notch. And how many other 'blenders' offer a 10 year full warranty?

The problem with non-stick pans is that they all seem to perform as advertised when they are new. Most of us do not want to replace our pans every year. The real test is how do they hold up over time which includes their ability to handle a little misuse. Project Farm is an outstanding channel, but it is a tough ask to test for long term performance or durability no matter what the product.

I thought this would be a hard challenge for you to distinguish between the bottom brands considering there are more random variables and subjective when it comes to blending. But the results are still comparable. Nice work!

Thanks!

Great video as always. Our Vitamix is the best blender we ever bought, still going strong after 19 years. Never had a problem with it. A video suggestion would be so called nonstick frying pans. I have never been able to find a good one.

Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.

Just wanted to say thanks for making this video. A lot of the other blender videos aren't worth watching because some of them don't even have enough sense to show you the aftermath of what they blended much less take the time to measure stuff like rpms.
