Expensive but worth it! – I initially avoided vitamix due to the price but after buying a different high end brand that failed me, I put my pennies into a vitamix professional 750 series after some…

research and boy you get what you pay for. To begin with the noise level produced is less then other brands I've tried, the functions on the blender are easy to follow and are well designed. Great colours, I got mine in copper and its got such a retro feel and look! Great build quality too. Smooth! Smooth! Smooth! No lumpy smoothies or nice creams. This thing is a monster! Frozen bananas blend into a smooth creamy dreamy consistency. The pulse button is excellent for grinding like a food processor as well. I don't use the preset functions because I prefer to have control over the speed settings, but it would be good for others that like to multi-task in the kitchen. The large jug is light and actually makes it easier to scoop and spoon out thicker blends like nice cream. Mine is always on the counter and gets used every single day! In fact I'm going to use it right now :)! Best blender I've used by far!

Short circuited the power in my house! – After reading many reviews and not wanting to pay the price of a Vitamix I also opted for this blender. Whilst I wouldn't say it is quiet it is some what less noisy then other…

blenders I've had. It worked well for about 3 weeks until it short circuited my house and the power had to be reset at the electricity box. After that the blender would no longer work, I couldn't even get it to switch on. I'd like to think this was a random faulty unit but after reading the review of another person here from April I don't think so. Least to say I am disappointed because I've only had the blender for three weeks and when I placed a ticket inquiry through warranty, I was told to allow the blender to rest off power over night to see if it works again. This was incredibly frustrating because by that point in time it had already been 24hours. It took two to three days of back and forth communication before I was told I to send the blender back but that if it wasn't properly packaged and damaged in shipment it would be my liability and also if not cleaned properly there would be a $30 cleaning fee. I don't know how you can be liable for a blender that's already faulty! No one expects a product to break 3 weeks after purchasing it brand new. I think it's poor service to then turn the tables on the customer in terms liability for re-shipment and to return it to them to 'have a look at it for you.' I would have also thought an immediate replacement would have covered it, especially because the product became faulty within their 30 day money back guarantee. I'm very unhappy with the service at this point and the quality of the product. My old thirty dollar blender worked for years without being faulty, why pay $700 for something that doesn't work for more then three weeks. I was also upgraded from an order of the G2.1 as they didn't have any in stock.
