If you don’t have a blender ready, then you’re in luck as these Amazon deals put two professional-grade Vitamix blenders on sale just for Prime Day.
Just to give you an idea, Vitamix is like the Mercedes of blenders so you might want to snag one for yourself before the deal expires 8 a.m. PT on July 16.
Vitamix 5200 Professional Grade Blender — $229
The Vitamix 5200 Professional Grade Blender can whip up almost anything you throw in that 64-ounce container. The hardened stainless-steel blades can pulverize even the tiniest of seeds with the guarantee of smooth blends packed with flavor from start to finish.
The Vitamix 5200 has variable speed controls to achieve a variety of textures up to your standard.

You don’t even have to worry about it overheating as it is packed with a built-in radial cooling fan with a thermal protection system.
Another feature you’ll love about this blender is that it’s self-cleaning, you can simply pour in some warm water, a pump of dish soap, blend it at it’s highest setting, and see it good as new in just 30 to 60 seconds. Step up your game and blend like a pro while the Vitamix 5200 Professional Grade Blender is at a discounted price of $229 on Amazon. Get it before it bounces back to its usual list price of $450.
Vitamix Explorian Professional Grade Blender — $181
If you find the price tag on the Vitamix 5200 a little steep even with the 49% markdown, then the Vitamix Explorian Professional Grade Blender is another great option you might want to try.
