According to our blender expert
With the included mixing cups, you can also make salsa or a smoothie for on the go.
Thanks to the protection, the blender won't work if the lid or pitcher isn't properly attached.
With the Vitamix Perfect Blend app, you can choose from 15 automatic programs and 500 recipes.
The plastic casing is less sturdy and doesn't last as long as a stainless steel casing.

Blender performance
This is a super powerful top blender that does everything you would expect it to do.
It is a high quality blender. It is sturdy and nicely finished. It is an investment, but with such a beautiful and good device you always want to get started. So no blender to put in the kitchen cupboard and grab every now and then, but on the kitchen counter to use every day and be seen.
You can really make anything with this blender. The presets make it very easy. Making ice cream with frozen bananas? No problem. Vegetable and protein shakes are made this way. Fresh soups, spreads, nut butters are all ready in no time.
The blender therefore helps enormously with a consciously healthy lifestyle: you know what you are putting in it and what you are taking in. No extra refined sugars or other often unnecessary additives.
Long doubted about an upgrade to the 750 or the Ascent 3500, but very satisfied with the choice for the latter. Key points for the Ascent 3500: [1] The smaller smoothie cups that you can put on the blender (without a 'personal cup adapter' as with the 750), those cups can also be put in the dishwasher. Super easy for a small smoothie or protein shake, then you don't need a large blender jar at all. You also have smaller blender bowls for a nice healthy dipping sauce/dressing/nut spread/etc. [2] The presets on the blender itself and 17 additional presets in the app make blending easy. You can really make anything without having to scour the internet for the best blender settings. [3] The design is simply beautiful, after all, the eye wants something too. If you have a retro kitchen, a 750 might be nice, but the Ascent 3500 looks great in a modern kitchen. [4] The transparent lid on the blender jar is very handy, you can see from the top how your result is progressing. [5] The 10-year warranty shows that Vitamix has confidence in the smart blenders and is fully committed to the future.
In short, the Ascent 3500 is a top blender that provides great results in the kitchen. Hopefully we can enjoy it for a long time to come!

I've had a Vitamix of the classic line for 10 years before this. I have used it almost every day since we bought the Vitamix a3500i. This machine is stronger and faster than my old model and at the same time quieter (but not quiet!).
I find the 5 programs very easy to use and they are suitable for making soup and smoothies. The 64 oz cup is a good size for making dinner. The only problem I've encountered is that if you want to chop nuts, even on the lowest setting, the nuts are quickly ground into a powder. But this is a minor problem for such a nice machine.
The machine is expensive and I don't really understand why it is almost twice as expensive as in the United States. This also applies to the accessories.

When unpacking it is immediately clear that this is a high quality blender. beautiful motor home, nice mixing/pouring jug. The rotary knob to manually set the speed is very solid executed, a pleasure to turn. The display is also clear and beautiful. On the engine house lies a thick rubber mat on which the mixing jug rests stably. All in all a jewel on your countertop. Only downside in terms of quality: the pestle is made of cheap plastic. I also like it Too bad it comes with a very simple recipe booklet. On the internet you can see a lot of videos of a beautifully executed book that goes with it. Unfortunately that was not with my A3500i. Immediately tried the first smoothie. Blenders make noise, that's a known fact. I liked this one Vitamix does go along with the noise by the way; especially at lower speeds. Within seconds all solid parts (carrot, pineapple, ginger and ice cubes) had changed beyond recognition into a smoothie. Then the blender automatically switched to a higher speed and turned finally calm down for a few seconds. The result was a completely even mixture: a delicious and creamy smoothie! You can easily connect your phone to the blender. With accompanying App (iOs, Android) you can select hundreds of recipes. The App indicates which ingredients you need and even the order in which you throw them into the mixing pitcher. Then the blender automatically chooses the right one program where the speed varies as needed. Handy that you can indicate which ingredients you have at home and can also exclude certain styles (e.g. only vegetarian show dishes). In the coming weeks we will continue to experiment with sauces, dips and soups. So far no regrets with this purchase.
