CONS

Vitamix A3500 Brushed Stainless Blender
Vitamix Next Generation Blender
Yes

• For a juice blender, this appliance is kind of expensive and overpriced but with all the good features, it definitely is worth it. • There isn't a pour spout so you have to remove the lid completely to pour out the contents. • Comes with zero accessories beyond the single 64oz blender pitcher and additional accessories are also pricey. The 64oz blender is great for larger batches of things but it definitely isn't ideal for smaller individual-sized batches. • Unfortunately this is not dishwasher safe; therefore cleaning it is a chore. It is wise though to clean it immediately after blending for then the increase easily comes off. • There is a bit of a learning curve needed when using this blender but it becomes fun after you get the hang of it. • A few people complain about the noise and loudness. • Not the most affordable blender. • Pitcher is difficult to pour for some customers. • Harder to clean because blades aren’t supposed to be removed. • No pre-set programs like the Vitamix 750 Professional Series or other models. • No pulse mode, but can still do pulsing jobs. • Plastic top can be annoying. • Fairly bulky and large (you can buy low profile container).
