Vitamix Food Processor Review 

Wish they had a disc to dice and to do spiral . It would be nice if they did come out with one. But I think I’ll wait to buy one just to see how people really like it. I really love the idea of saving space.

Thank you for getting right to the point about how this can only be used with the Ascent series. Everyone else seems to be glossing over that.

Would love to see a spiralizer and dicing attachment

This is the most clearest explanation that I have ever seen before. I think I wanna this as my Christmas gift, 😂

Does the pulse button work with this attachment? I would hope so.

Thanks. I'm not strong but I thought I was the only one having trouble getting the lid on and off, especially off. If my husband wasn't home I don't think I could use it. I do, however, love it once it's together.

I don’t know how this attachment escaped my radar. Eager to get rid of the cumbersome Cuisinart and the tons of attachments and lids, etc that take up way too much of my kitchen, I went on Amazon to see if there’s an attachment for my KA Mixer and this popped up. I’m sooooo excited! Thank you for the review . . .ordering it now.

Finally someone mentioned the lid topic!! When I got the food processor I thought I got a bad lid! I literally broke a nail trying to open it 🤪 Vitamix cs was kind enough to send me a replacement. The replacement lid is still not as easy to open/close as the blender container lid BUT it’s definitely not as tough as the original lid that came with the processor 🙈

Can you do a side by side comparison with other popular food processors?

Unfortunately, this will not work on my 7500. Hopefully Vitamix will make one that will work on the classic models.

Your video is so pro and so great. Great presentation. Your voice sounds great. I bought the thing yesterday and I am glad I did. A2500... Your editing is great. The dessert at the end looks delish. I like your storage advise and keeping instructions.

Best review of Vitamix! I appreciate the differences of shreds. Thank you.

wow - great instructional video! kudos! I bought the attachment, and didn't know where to start. so this has been really helpful.

Thank you for using the same ingredient (zucchini) to show how all the different blades work!!

How quickly do the blades STOP when pulsed? Seemed like the blades kept going a bit when stopped by the off button.

Thanks so much. Wonderful review and extremely helpful. I couldn't figure out how to put it in storage mode. I read the instructions over and over, studied the diagrams, and it just didn't make sense to me. Then I started looking everywhere else - Vitamix sites, other RU-vid videos. Nobody made it clear. But you did. I had to watch your video slowly and keep stopping it to make sure I was doing it right. I've already ordered two new discs to make French fries and chips. They cost a small fortune, and I think many people are annoyed with Vitamix for that. They could have included them in the original package - I bought just two of the three new discs since the third one didn't seem useful and I'll have room in the storage container if and when they create more discs - but just buying two new discs and another storage container cost almost as much as the whole unit. So, yeah, a lot of people think this was exploitative of Vitamix, and I'm afraid I do, too. Greedy is a word I've seen used a lot. This on top of forcing people to buy new machines so they can use the attachments. You want to keep your customers happy, Vitamix - don't disappoint them!

Thank you mentioning that it is a little hard to get on and off. I have a disability and that would make it impossible with me. I think I'll still get it but consider that I'll need someone around to take it off

Can wait to invest in this attachment! Thanks for the thorough review!

Does it have a pulse function? I was going to get the A3500 but now I’m thinking if I want to use it as a 2 in 1 blender/food processor then maybe the A3300 with the manual switches would be better so the pulse function would be more responsive or easier. I can’t imagine a touchscreen button for pulsing. If it doesn’t have a pulse function then that’s a deal breaker.

A little late to the party, but the processor does have pulse. As to the sensor stopping if the feeding tube is not in place, etc, that is a safety feature. Don’t want to put your hand in there. It could happen with little hands especially.

Were there any leftover pieces/chunks left above the disk when processing?

I love my 26 year old Vitamix. The food processor has sparked my interest to upgrading and be able to have one appliance to multi task. My current food processor is a work horse and I use it often. It has a 14 cup work bowl and I often use it to capacity. I have concerns about going to a smaller bowl. Have you used yours to capacity and will it run for, say 5 minutes, without difficulty? Also, I have trouble with getting jar lids off due to decreasing hand strength. Any word from Vitamix on improving the lid to make it easier to get off and on? What parts are dishwasher safe? Thank you for a great review!

It’s $249 now. I got it anyway! Great addition to the existing blender. Why buy a separate machine? It’s very powerful. I can even grind my own meat.

Love the vitamix but need spiralizer and dicing etc

Hello, thank you for the video. Have you ever grind meat with the food processor? For example, prepare burger patties? Thanks!

Thank you for the review on using the Vitamix food processor. I received my Vitamix food processor yesterday and look forward to using it.

Best review I've seen today. Thank you.

Are the thin slices thin enough for making Zucchini or sweet potato chips?

Thank you for the review. Can't wait to order one. I wish it had dual speed like most processors but I'll take it so I can save the space and hassle of a 2nd bulky appliance. You're pie looks delicious too.

I'd like to get this attachment to make healthy "Nice Cream". The endless pints of Ben & Jerry's during quarantine has just about done me in.

Does the pulsing feature work with this attachment or is continuous speed the only option?

Great honest review. Thx!

I just received exactly the same one. Thank you so much for the great info video .. and I agree with the pros and cons👍

Great. I'm due for a new Vitamix anyway. Thanks for the information.

I guess I'd have to buy a new Vitamix blender too, for the processor to work with the blender's base. I have an old Vitamix blender...about 12 years old.

Can’t wait when you get it back in stock 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Its not compatible with my 750. :o( I won't be buying a new blender just so I can buy this add-on.

I love vitamix, but this.. is it any better than chopping with a knife, for a small family?

Thanks for the wonderful review.

I'm going to keep my old cuisinart 14 cup food processor. It is nearly silent compared to this.

Do you need to have a vita mix to get the vitamix processor? If so what vitamix

Hi love! Can I purchase in AUSTRALIA?

It’s ashame. I was hoping this would be the solution to downsize my appliances. I have a cuisinart food processor and Vitamix; this was the chance to consolidate. Setup the new Vitamix food processor to shred some nice parm reg and the plastic knuckles busts on the small shred. Just stay to the appliance that is meant to do this, cuisinart. I’m sure Vitamix will re-release this to be more reliable and durable, but really needs a more integrated component.

Can it dice a potato in cubes like structure

What about the S Blade????

How about doing cheese? It’s horrible! I’ve tried everything and it just can’t handle it.

Where is the link for your apple pie?

So there’s no pulse with this processor?

Great content a few close ups wth side by side results of slice and shred would’ve been great

Is it possible to shred cabbage?

"Thick" and "thin" doesn't mean much to me. Can't you measure the thickness of the slices? Looked more like thin and medium to me. Are there other blades?

Great review...exciting new product!

Nice work Joy.

Don't forget you need hearing protection when running the vitamix! I do love mine but have earmuffs for hearing protection in the kitchen. I also wish there was a spiralizer attachment, that would be the cat's meow.

Hola🙋🏻‍♀️ porfavor ayúdeme a conseguir uno de estos procesadores de alimentos,soy Mónica de ECUADOR

Agree, the con is the lid. It’s terrible. I have had mine for over a year.

My biggest complaint, besides the difficulty of getting the top on/off is cleaning it. It's harder to clean than the other attachments. It's not horrible by any means, just not as easy as the others.

Have you tried hard cheeses yet?

Thank you.

I hv the 3500 ascend, could you help me out how to make the FP detectable?

amazing review thank you

Does it have pulse function?

Which blade would you use to rice cauliflower?

Can I shred cabbage

What happen to shedding cabbages.

so the attachment is $200, you also need the blender base...ahhh whats the blender base cost?

Thinks 🌺🍀🌺🍀🌺🍀

If it doesn’t dice for salsas, I’m out ☹️ a machine that can do so many amazing things but can’t dice 🤦‍♀️

This is not a test. Do harder veggies and cheeses.
