Vitamix Smart System vs Blendtec Classic (2015)

The Vitamix A2500 has done great in a couple of roundups conducted by highly trusted sources that perform objective in-depth testing, like Tom's Guide, Your Best Digs, Rtings, and TechGearLab - it earned the "The best smart blender" title from Tom's Guide, "Ranked 1 out of 9" from Your Best Digs, and "Ranked 1 out of 4" from Rtings. Any product that's held in high regard by such reliable sources should be considered by anyone that's looking for a Countertop Blender at this price point.

Taking a look at the Blendtec Classic 560 (2015), we found that it hasn't managed to perform well enough to earn a spot in any Countertop Blender roundups done by sources that conduct their own, high-quality, hands-on testing. That alone makes it difficult to recommend.

Lastly, we tried to do a direct Vitamix A2500 vs. Blendtec Classic 560 (2015) comparison of review ratings between these two products, but couldn't find any review scores for the Blendtec Classic 560 (2015).

Compared to all other Countertop Blenders on the market, however, the Vitamix A2500 performed great. When averaged out, it earned a rating of 9.1 out of 10, which is much better than the 7.3 review average of Countertop Blenders in general.
