We tested the ever-growing range of presets Vitamix has to offer to see if it was worth the pricetag.
Vitamix makes the best blenders. Period. End of story. We know that from years of testing dozens of blenders from different companies, during which time the brand’s tried-and-true 5200 model has maintained a multi-year reign as our favorite blender. But the 5200 is far from the only blender in Vitamix’s arsenal. The Vita-verse has several different series: the legacy series , the Explorian series , the Propel series , and the Ascent series . Now there’s a new addition, the Ascent X series.
I made a frozen fruit margarita, leafy kale smoothie, frappé, hazelnut butter, almond milk, and ground spices in both blenders, using either the presets each machine had or trying my best to mimic them on the A3500 in the case that it lacked a specific setting for the task. I started to become endeared to the X5 right off the bat when I used to make smoothies. This test introduced me to what would soon become my favorite feature from the Ascent X series—the tamp notification.
