Vitamix is a reputable brand known for its quality blenders, and the Vitamix S50 is certainly no different. This blender comes from their S-Series which is a range of Space Saving blenders that makes it easy to create single or double servings that you can enjoy at home, or on the go.
As compared to their typical countertop blenders, the Vitamix S50 is compact with no extra fuss. Aside from protein shakes, this blender can also process small batches of sauces, dressings, and chop green veggies with no problem.
The Vitamix S50 comes with a 40 oz container and a smaller 20 oz insulated container that serves as your travel jug. It also comes with a tamper so you can insert it through the lid while blending.
The blender base is powered with a 790-watt motor together with Vitamix’s signature stainless-steel blades with an all-metal drive—so processing leafy greens and even frozen fruits wouldn’t even be a problem.
It also features 2 preset functions, Smoothies and Power Blend. These two options allow a very convenient way of blending enabling you to do other chores while it’s still in operation. After the selected cycle is complete, the blender automatically shuts off. This safeguards your ingredients to avoid over blending and saves some energy as well.
The blender is also easy to clean as the parts are dishwasher safe.
Overall, the Vitamix S50 is a premium option for those who want a high-end blender for creating protein shakes. All parts of the blender are highly durable and offer long-lasting performance, as evident by their 5-year manufacturer’s warranty. It’s a good one-time investment for many blending years to come.
