My husband got this for me as a gift for my birthday. I had to leave my professional series vita mix in Canada when I moved over to join my husband and had been missing it dearly. This is the perfect size for our small kitchen and it blends just like the pro series! I love that I can also blend right into my smoothie cups and the containers are also perfect size for our family of 3. Can’t wait to keep creating!

My Vitamix S30 was a gift from my daughter &SiL. I had so admired theirs.The smaller S30 is perfect for One Person. I use it every day to make a smoothy of raw vegetables and fruit, so I can keep up with the new Canada Food Guide. I haven't found anything it will not render SMOOTH unlike all the others I have tried over the years (and I'm 73 so that's a lot of years!).

This blender has been a headache. It doesn't matter how much fluid I use or if I fill a few inches or to the max line it still takes me close to 20 minutes to make a simple smoothie. Forget about almond or cashew butter, you will be at it for hours. It simply shuts off then I have to unplug and wait, plug it in and try, unplug and wait more time until it decides its ready to resume blending my simple fruits and liquid. So disappointed in this blender, I wish I would have saved my money.
