This Vitamix blender is not the only great small appliance being discounted right now. Here are a few other early Prime Day deals worth considering to upgrade your kitchen:

The Vitamix Ascent A2500 has three program settings that let you make either smoothies, hot soups, or frozen desserts. These settings have varying blending speeds that allow you to fine-tune every texture from smooth purées to chunky pasta sauces, and everything in between. With the smoothie function, you can put whole ingredients inside like ice cubes, fruits, and leafy greens, and blend everything together into a nutritious smoothie.

The soup function is next-level wonderful. You can make hot soup without the use of a cooktop, microwave, or stove. Just pop the ingredients inside and in under 10 minutes, voila! Steaming hot soup at the perfect serving temperature. This is because the stainless-steel industrial-type blades alone create a friction that the blender heats up and cooks everything, something that regular blenders can’t do.

You can also create chilled desserts in seconds. Simply add frozen ingredients to the machine to make ice cream, fruit sorbet, and more. All these are made possible by the A2500’s 2.2-horsepower motor that’s powerful enough for almost every kitchen job. In fact, it’s so powerful that you can make perfectly creamy peanut butter from roasted peanuts and turn coffee beans into ground coffee with it. The A2500 eliminates the need to purchase an additional food processor.

This blender has a built-in digital timer that removes the guesswork with recipes you process manually, helping you achieve the ideal texture and consistency every time. Aside from its large 64-ounce container, you can purchase additional containers of varying sizes to expand the machine’s flexibility. You can also download the Vitamix perfect blend app on your smartphone to unlock 17 programs and more than 500 recipes.

The A2500 has received a pretty impressive 4.3 out of 5 stars rating on Amazon. Customers have pointed out its amazing soup function, powerful blending, and multi-functionality, calling it the Cadillac of blenders. Despite being reconditioned, Amazon guarantees the blenders’ quality through a 17-point meticulous inspection and careful sanitation. As part of Amazon’s early Prime day deals, you should seriously think about the A2500’s $120 worth of savings.

Apple HomeView feature

I was genuinely excited when Apple announced the HomeView. A 7-inch smart display from Apple sounded like something I would happily put on my kitchen counter. Then Apple published its repair prices, and my excitement took a nosedive.
