CONCLUSION

PROS

Oster Versa Blender
Vitamix A2500 Ascent Series Smart Blender
Yes

• Strong motor • Smaller footprint • Easy to read controls • Easy to clean- Cleaning is a breeze, just cycle water through; you can throw just about anything into it, fun to cook again. • Aesthetically pleasing design despite its large size. • The jug is great and easy to attach. • Lightweight, durable plastic jar and (seemingly) solid, well-made, base and motor. • Seven (7) year warranty makes the high price more tolerable. • The gasket appears pliable and has dual ridges to securely seal the lid; only time will tell how durable the gasket will be. • It's easy to use. You can just use the dial or use one of the pre-set buttons. • It's stable and does not move on the countertop. • The base is heavy and has rubberized feet. It won't walk across your counter while blending, doesn't cause crazy vibrations, even at top speed. • Jar capacity is pretty good. Two very large hurricane glasses full, I'd say. • The blade just destroys ice and frozen fruit/veggies. • Preset buttons are useful, but I prefer the manual control knob. Has a solid click and a good feel. • Square jar is my favorite. Creates a real nice swirl in the jar that gets every last chunk down to the blades. • Plastic plunger helps break up any blockages • Single piece jar--no bottom to unscrew, no leaky O-rings to fiddle with and seat properly or to lose at the bottom of the dishwasher. The top has two rows of flexible ribbing that ensure a tight seal all the way around the jar. Easily removable plug in the lid made of clear plastic. Very sturdy and heavy-grade plastic all around.

Yes

• Modern design • More affordable than the A3500 • Three built-in program settings • Digital timer • Plus 17 preset programs when linked to the Vitamix Perfect Blend App • Ten variable speed • 64-ounce (1.89 L) low profile container • Great for crushing ice • Ounce and cup measurement markings • Transparent lid for a better view • The lid plug doubles as a measuring cup • Laser-cut hardened stainless steel blade • Smart Accessories compatible • BPA-free • 10 Year Warranty ensures you’ll get a good return on your investment. • Starter recipe book contains lots of inspiration for soups, dips, smoothies, and more. • Three reliable pre-programmed settings take care of the most common jobs automatically. • Variable Speed Controls – and Pulse feature – give you manual control over the texture when you need it. • The classic Vitamix design is given a 21st-century makeover. • Dishwasher-safe. • Quieter than many earlier Vitamix machines.

CONS

Oster Versa Blender
Vitamix A2500 Ascent Series Smart Blender
Yes

• This blender can get pretty loud at full power. Low power is not so bad. • It is not considered dishwasher safe by the manufacturer. • The blade cannot be removed...at least not very easily. • The rubber seal on the lid comes off easily. • It can be a bit tricky to get the pitcher to sit on the base properly. • The entire unit is very large. The base alone is heavy and stands fairly high. • The manufacturer recommends wrapping the cord underneath the base and around the motor. This is just not practical when you use the blender daily.

Yes

• It is very powerful there are no suction cups on the bottom to keep it from moving. • The container does not latch into place on the base. • People say it's very loud. • Because there are 4 blades, it can be a little difficult to clean in making peanut butter. • It’s not cheap • Classic switches tend to accumulate dust and food particles • Ingredients can get stuck on the side of the jar. • Doesn't automatically stop when finished. • The Ascent range of machines isn’t cheap, and neither is the A2500! • Quite bulky. You’ll need either a big storage cupboard or plenty of under-cabinet space to accommodate this blender.
