What customers say about "Key Specs"

Vitamix 750 Professional Series, Candy Apple Red Finish

Smoothie blending is perfect consistency. Blending sorbets and smoothies is very quick, like two minutes.
This new one is much quieter and with the combination of the full range variable speed along with pre-programmed settings, it's a fantastic machine.
This thing is amazing.. You really don't realize the difference until you use a blender with this kind of power and speed. I'm starting to make a lot of things in it now.. I makes wonderful soups, sauces, etc...
This is a very powerful machine. It can operate in some pre-programmed modes as well as in variable speed mode.
Soups do not get "piping hot." Even though there is steam coming from the container, the contents are warm at best.
Turns everything to mulch-looking stuff, even on slowest setting pulsed. Chunks are random shapes. Must still chop by hand when appearance matters. But this is true of any blender/food processor I guess.

Smoothie blending is perfect consistency. Blending sorbets and smoothies is very quick, like two minutes.
It has all the power you need for pureeing just about anything. It is extremely durable and its automatic cleaning system works like a charm. We absolutely love it.
With the power of this blender's motor and advanced technology blades, I've been able to make the best frappuccinos, frozen cocktails, smoothies, almond milk, and all without much effort.
Love the programming buttons including cleaning cycle. And above all, this is very powerful blender!
Just awesome and powerful with futuristic look with its Blue LED lit front panel.

Vitamix 750 Professional Series, Candy Apple Red Finish

As far as storage and cleaning goes, the wider shorter jar is your best bet. It's easier to clean, is better suited for smaller families and takes up less space on your kitchen counters.
The base is heavy, so you can walk away without worrying about the unit tipping or shaking if the contents of the container are off balance.
The Vitamix is heavy and very well made, compared with the Ninja.
I love the size/shape of the pitcher, it fits right under my cabinets and is very easy to clean out.
This machine will power through anything you throw at it. And, the recipe book is great as well.

Low profile - fits under cabinets easily.
It is extremely durable and its automatic cleaning system works like a charm.
It's not bulky and easy fit on my counter top.
Heavy but it does a good job with smoothies.

What customers say about "Features"

Vitamix 750 Professional Series, Candy Apple Red Finish

This is a very powerful machine. It can operate in some pre-programmed modes as well as in variable speed mode.
The various programs (smoothie, soup, etc) aren't just a gimmick - they actually work and make a difference in the finished product.
It comes with a recipe book that has really good recipes with specific instructions including the ORDER of adding ingredients which makes a difference also.
The container doesn't lock into place on the motor, so you have to hold it in place when doing heavy duty blending using the temper. Even with soups I'd be weary of not holding it, just in case.
Juicing is NOT smooth. I tried to make carrot juice by blending carrots on the soup setting and even longer on the custom settings, but there was still a lot of roughage.

Vitamix 780 Black Home Blender with Touchscreen Control Panel

UI - The new touch UI its a nice improvement.
The convenience of this model is the digital display and programming. It has the exact same motor speed (2.2), blades, etc., as the dial operated models.
The touchscreen just makes sense for this machine; less mistakes, for example, you can turn off the Vitamix without having to manually reset the speed to zero.
The smooth control surface means if you spill or happened to put food on the controls, you can easily wipe it clean, something that's more of a challenge with knobs and dials.
Cord Design - the cord as the base keeps popping out making the blender lopsided. Again this isn't a big deal, it just means every time I take it out, I need to adjust the cord.

What customers say about "Power"

Vitamix 750 Professional Series, Candy Apple Red Finish

It's powerful and has the smoothest sorbet blend I've ever seen, only a few tiny specs at the perfect sorbet consistency. If you blend until all specs are gone it turns into a smoothie consistency.
Super powerful, great for making veggie/protein blends (no smoothies here, borderline diabetes means no juicing/blending fruits), batters, breads, soups, mayonaise (omg, once you will taste you will never buy from store again).
It's a powerful machine and gets the blending job done... It's just what I wanted.
Best feature - Powerful motor, this translate to very smooth in anything you blend.
Noise (painful) on certain programmed settings.

Vitamix 780 Black Home Blender with Touchscreen Control Panel

Best purchase ever! Vitamix 780 is so powerful yet much quieter than my cheap blender.
The motor is powerful and I haven't had any problems blending anything I have tried thus far.
Very powerful blender. I usually use it to make smoothy.
It is loud, but that's because of the powerful motor inside which apparently really does make a difference.
