Compare REVIEW ? Wolf Gourmet Blender vs Vitamix

Wolf Gourmet Blender REVIEW

A new addition to the blender market, Wolf Gourmet Blender lives up to the reputation of Wolf products. The High Performance Blender is substantial, powerful, and looks professional while carrying the brand’s signature red knob. Operating the blender is made stress-free with an LCD timer and a variety of pre-programmed settings. You can grind coffee beans into a velvety texture and puree soup with ease. However, there is a possibility for some large ice chunks to be left in frozen cocktails streaks of greenies to be left in smoothies. Given its steep price, the blender could have been better. The blender is easy to use.

 

Vitamix 5300 REVIEW

One reviewer of Vitamix 5300 says that they love the blender and it doesn’t leave a gritty texture in the smoothie unlike their previous brand of blender. They add that they are a lot healthier greens than before. Another reviewer says that the Vitamix 5300 purees and pulverizes easily. Their smoothies at times include quinoa, chia seeds, broccoli, celery, and other hard-to-blend ingredients. They can now create perfect smoothies with no shreds of greens left over and the seeds and grains blended fine. One user of the blender says that their kids are picky eaters but now use the blender regularly to make smoothies. They love it and the user doesn’t have to nag them to eat their food. They add that it has made a big difference to their family.

 

Vitamix 5300 Pros

Easy and quick to clean
The blender is very easy and quick to clean. You need to half of the jar with warm water, add a drop of dishwashing liquid, and run the blender for approximately 30 seconds. Then just rinse it and you are done. This method might be ineffective if you make any kind of nut butter in the blender.

 

Vitamix 5300 Cons

Does not work for frozen smoothies and hard ingredients.
The shorter wider container of the Vitamix 5300 does not work at all to make thick frozen smoothies. It fails to vortex the mixture so as to blend a thick blend completely and the tamper might have to be used. It cannot make thick smoothies using frozen fruits no matter how hard you try and the customer support is clueless about it too.

Vitamix 5300 makes banana smoothie quite well much like other $100 blender but leaves chunks behind in some ingredients like plum and tomato. It also doesn’t blend hard ingredients such as carrot into a smoothie completely. It leaves from small bits to marble-sized pieces even after blending on high for 60-90 seconds. Vitamix 5300 is not dishwasher safe and not a good idea for people who want to conserve water and use a dishwasher because they would need extra water to clean the blender.

 

Teflon scrapes off
Vitamix 5300 has black fleck issue when blending ice, that is, the Teflon coating under the blade scrapes off when blending ice. The problem arises because of a very tight clearance and when the blade hits the ice it deflects and hits the coating. Even though the Teflon coating is FDA-approved and the amount that flaking off is said to be safe for human consumption, no matter how safe it is claimed to be, the idea of Teflon scrapping off is not too good.
