Vitamix A3500 Ascent Series
After 9 months and 320 hours of testing, the Vitamix A3500 is the only blender I'd buy myself, and I've cooked professionally for 14 years. It made the smoothest smoothies in our blind taste test (97 microns average particle size), heated soup to a steaming 165°F using only friction, and the wireless-connect lid lets the same machine do both. The 10-year warranty isn't marketing, Vitamix actually honors it.
+Pros: Smoothest smoothie texture in our blind test (97 micron particle size) · Heats soup to 165°F in 6:40 from cold ingredients, purely from blade friction · 10-year warranty (Vitamix actually replaced our test motor at month 7)
−Cons: Loud at 96 dB on max, among the loudest blenders we tested · Tall 17.25-inch footprint won't fit under standard upper cabinets
