This handsome Vitamix blender offers 10 blending programs to make flawless drinks, snacks, meals and desserts. Variable speed control allows you to refine textures, from a batch of chunky stew to small servings of super-smooth baby food. A built-in digital timer helps take the guesswork out of recipes, and the ingenious Add 15 Seconds button gives just a bit more blending time when needed. When the tamper indicator is displayed, use the tamper to press thick and frozen mixtures toward the stainless steel blades with no need to stop and scrape the sides of the shatter-resistant container. Dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup, the Ascent X5 blender also features a handy self-cleaning function.
