The blender is described as sturdy, well-made, and durable, with a transparent yet thick plastic jar. Its components are built to last, though the plastic container may scratch over time.
8 Performance Consistency
Produces consistently smooth and uniform blends. Users have reported excellent results with green smoothies and other blended foods, with no clumps or uneven texture.
7 Ease of Use
The blender is user-friendly with straightforward controls. Some users mentioned the need to "tamp" food down during blending and noted that it requires oversight.
7 Versatility
The Vitamix A2300 blends a wide range of foods, from smoothies and soups to nut milks and butters. However, users noted potential overheating with thick mixtures and desired more attachments for its price.
6 Ease of Cleaning
The blender is not the simplest to clean, but its blade assembly does not need to be disassembled for cleaning. Some users found residues under the blades challenging to remove.
6 Size and Compatibility
Despite being labeled as 'low-profile,' the Vitamix A2300 may not fit under standard kitchen cabinets. Users appreciated its large 64 oz. capacity but found its height a bit inconvenient.
5 Noise Level
While extremely powerful, the blender is noted for being very loud, especially at high speeds. It's louder than a vacuum cleaner, which can be disconcerting for some users.
5 Noise Mitigation
Due to its high noise level, users recommend using earplugs or headphones during operation. Noise can be an issue for apartment dwellers or those with roommates.
