For a POWERFUL blender to PERFORM well, it needs an effective blade design and a suitable container to use its power efficiently for blending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Power and Performance are the deal breaker perks for any blender and depend on the Motor, Controls and Design of its blending Jar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Motor\"><\/span><strong>Motor<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitamix 5200 has a high-quality powerful motor encased in its base. The source of blending power comes from the electric power of the motor is 2 HP (=1491 Watts) peak power. It draws 11.5 Amp which is used to rotate the blades at 500-37000 rpm at different speed levels.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vitamix is built and assembled in the US and it is the cream of the crop when it comes to the electronics and electric motor on a 5200 blender. There is also an overheating sensor that prevents the engine from burning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Blades_and_Container_Design\"><\/span><strong>Blades and Container Design<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The motor provides power to the blender while the performance is dictated by the blades&#8217; design and the jar with the ingredients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitamix has perfected the art of matching the high power of a motor with the super efficient design of the blade-container duo to convert that electrical power to pulverize<strong> everything.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The blades on Vitamix 5200 are dull, on purpose to act like a hammer and smash everything it touches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitamix designs every container for countertop blender (not the personal cups) to create a vortex action where the ingredients are pulled down towards the bottom center over the blades to constantly circulate all the ingredients for complete and consistent mixing, blending at liquefying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<p class=\"responsive-video-wrap clr\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Fun fact about the Vitamix.

With no pulse button you have to flick the On and Off buttons, if you want to make your products with desired consistency and smoothness like chunky soup or hummus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The preset settings on Vitamix may give you the privilege of walkaway blending, but these preset programs only work accurately for specific recipes that are mentioned in the recipe book that comes with the Vitamix blender.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to make larger amounts compared to those mentioned in the recipe or modify the whole recipe according to your personal taste. The programmed settings are not gonna work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So the manual controls on Vitamix 5200 give you the freedom to make whatever recipe you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Containers_and_Capacity\"><\/span><strong>Containers and Capacity:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitamix blenders come in plastic containers. The Vitamix 5200 comes with 64 oz. regular tall blending jar with a tamper. And it is also compatible with other regular jars of different sizes including the dry jars except for the modern ascent series containers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can <a href=\"https:\/\/blendersguide.com\/get-vitamix-compatible-container\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">read more about Vitamix container compatibility in this guide<\/a>. There is no problem with the actual plastic container (64 oz.) that comes with the blender but it might be a little taller to fit under your cabinet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, you can replace it with another low profile shorter Jar (48 oz.). Those who have been using it for a while suggest that the 48 oz.&nbsp; container blends better than the 64oz. carafe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blending performance comes from the container design. It helps the blender cavitation, rips and mixes really well. The narrow base with a small footprint makes Vitamix 5200 best for single-serving amounts as it requires minimum fill capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Longevity and Durability:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vitamix 5200 is the longest-lasting appliance that has lasted many users for more than 8 years of daily use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These long usability cases prove the claims by Vitamix that their blenders are built to last. And this is a fair reason <a href=\"https:\/\/blendersguide.com\/why-is-vitamix-so-expensive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">why Vitamix blenders are so expensive<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Warranty<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a brand knows that its products are really great.
