Product Description:
The Venturist Pro Blender offers iconic Vitamix performance, compatibility with a wide range of containers and attachments, and the peace of mind that comes from a 5-year full warranty. Smoothies are just the beginning. Hot soup without a stove, frozen sorbet in just a few minutes, healthy snacks, batters, sauces, dips, and baby food — Vitamix can make it all.

• You’re in control—adjust the speed during the blend to achieve a variety of textures, or use the Pulse feature to create quick bursts of power.
• A built-in timer helps avoid over-or under-processing your custom recipes, helping you achieve the perfect texture every time.
• Just blend warm water and a drop of dish soap at your machine's highest speed, and watch it self-clean in 60 seconds—no disassembly required.
• This blender is smart! The motor base automatically recognizes your container size and adjusts program settings and maximum blend times. You can add a range of different container sizes, all with built-in SELF-DETECT technology. That’s one smart blender.
• Blend frozen fruit, heavy powder, all the greens—our powerful motors transform tough ingredients into smooth blends, year after year.
• Every angle of our patented container is designed to fold ingredients back to the blades for faster, smoother blends—creating the Vitamix vortex.
• Our laser-cut blades are designed to deliver the same quality results, from first blend to last, and are resistant to dulling or bending.
• Our blades reach speeds fast enough to create friction heat, bringing cold ingredients to steaming hot in about six minutes.
• Make steaming-hot soup without a stove—in under 10 minutes. The friction from our blades brings soup to serving temperature, right in the container.
• Turn fruits and veggies into refreshing smoothies and juices. Vitamix blenders use the whole ingredient, including the fiber, to make healthy snacks.
• Create chilled desserts—just add frozen ingredients to your machine and you’ll be enjoying ice cream, fruit sorbet and more in seconds.
• Quickly mixing batters, creating custom baby food, and creating flavorful dressings has never been easier. There's always something new to explore with your Vitamix.
