The vitamix blender can replace ten appliances in your kitchen. The Vitamix can perform the following functions: juicing whole foods, making soups, making frozen sorbets and ice creams, chopping wet ingredients, mixing, blending, grinding grains, crushing ice, chopping dry ingredients and grinding wet grains. An ice cream machine and food processor, which are both very large and cumbersome appliances, are no longer needed when you own a Vitamix.
In addition to saving room in your kitchen, the neat part about eating foods from your Vitamix is that you are able to eat the foods in whole, so nothing is thrown out. For example, you can throw an entire apple into the machine to mix into a smoothie or soup, and the Vitamix has the strength to break that apple down into a juice within minutes. To make a vegetable soup, you can throw into whole carrots, zucchinis, onions, tomatoes and sweet potatoes, and let the Vitamix do the rest of the work as it blends your veggies into a creamy soup.
