Vitamix Ascent Series Container, 48 oz. with SELF-DETECT

Ok so if you got your Vitamix for smoothies.. THIS is what you were actually thinking of when you saw all of the reviews about how great these blenders are for smoothie making!I wish they would have offered a choice of containers with these blenders..Yes you can make smaller batches with this but more importantly, even larger smoothies are FAR better made by this.. the shape is far superior on this for smoothies in general and it blends so much easier and quicker.I make the same exact smoothie many times a week and with the original larger container I would nearly always have to use the tamper.. so when I made my first big smoothie with this thing I got it ready.. and have never needed it once.. so much better of a design on this!I wish they would stop trying to appeal to people who want to have a fully assembled vitamix under your cabinets and just make the larger containers this shape like they do on the older original models. The large container fits under the cabinets too.. but it’s not like you can load them under the cabinet so what is the point of caring if it fits there all the time!?

El vaso quedo super bien para mi modelo de vitamix!! me encantó!

I originally purchased the Ascent Personal cup system that could only make a decent smoothie if you’re willing to fidget with it. I exchanged the personal cup system for the 48 oz Wet Container.The 48 oz container (hands-down) makes better smoothies for 1-2 people. Vitamix should actually include the 48 oz with the Ascent machines since less than 20% of Vitamix owners actually need a 64 oz.Making a smoothie for one person in the 48 oz container is a breeze. You can always buy a separate Smoothie bottle for the 48 oz if you need a to-go-cup.If you care a lot about the quality of your smoothie for 1-2 people, the 48 oz wet container is by far the better way to go. The Smoothies are much smoother with no particles left or clumped dry ingredients.The 48 oz mops the floor with the smoothies made by the personal cup system.The 48 oz smoothies actually meets the quality standard you’d expect from a $600 blender.

When I ordered I was so happy that this size now is available in Europe/Germany, even if delivred from the US...I have seen this size in action on a Vitamix from the US and wanted to get it for my EU Vitamix Acsend 2500...Long story short, it doesn't work, because it doesn't get recognized... so it is useless...have send it back, Amazon says that i'll have my money back in the next day...I'm still intrested in a working Version of this Container...Hey Vitamix Engineers, it can't be that difficult to construct one that is working for the EU Modells.

Unfortunately this container is nut suitable for uk Vitamix but I have got the full refund from the seller so all good !
