ᐅ Mixer of Death

Hello, I currently have a blender that unfortunately can no longer handle harder ingredients like nuts or seeds. Cleaning it is also always very time-consuming because it cannot be disassembled.

I am looking for a blender that can really crush everything. This includes things like peanuts, chia seeds, sunflower seeds. Apples, pears, or other fruits should not just become a puree with small pieces but be blended finely (a smooth puree).

I usually make a smoothie from these ingredients that covers a large part of my daily vitamin and mineral intake.

So here are my requirements:
-Blends nuts and seeds into “dust”
-Can crush ice
-2L (67.6 fl oz) capacity
-Easy to clean
-Quiet operation is preferred
-Automatic run time (e.g., 30 seconds) is preferred
-Glass container instead of plastic is preferred
-Quality is important

I use the appliance almost daily. Longevity is an important factor.
If it comes with glass containers for storing with secure lids, that would be an additional plus.

I can consider a price of up to 500€ but it should be a top-quality device that perfectly meets my requirements and preferences.
My target price is more around 200-300€, but even then, my highlighted requirements must be met.

Vitamix TNC5200 .. basically a classic model - however, it does not have a glass container, this version has no preset programs, and it is far from quiet (although quiet versions do not exist for these blenders either)

This "heating function" is a bit confusing to me right now. 🙂
I assume it’s just a byproduct of the blender and not an additional feature?
If so, I could do without it.
Unfortunately, the price is a bit above my budget. Hopefully, there is a more affordable option.

I think it costs 550 € - it doesn’t really have a heating function... it might get warm if it blends for too long.

I have the Omniblend V. I’ve been using it almost daily for 1.5 years. What can you say about a high-performance blender—whatever goes in gets broken down to its molecular components 😀

They’re all loud.

Get a Thermomix. Then you’ll have peace of mind. It’s just slightly above budget but can do everything perfectly.

The only thing is, *QUIET* and *ICE CRUSHING* are contradictory on any device. It’s just not possible.
