You might think blenders are only useful for making smoothies, but they're actually much more versatile. Blenders can help you make all sorts of recipes, like sauces, soups, sorbets, and more. They can also be used to prep ingredients fast, so you don't have to spend your time and energy chopping. Vitamix makes the best blenders on the market. That said, they're not always affordable, and Vitamix sales are hard to come by. But if you've been waiting to try one for yourself, our favorite model, the Vitamix 5200 Blender, is on sale now for a limited time at Amazon.
The Vitamix 5200 is an easy-to-use, easy-to-clean blender with the power and speed variation to handle any task, making it the best blender we've tested overall.
- Simple but sufficient controls
- Ultra-powerful
- The best pitcher we've tested
