I have been reading how it can basically blend anything and it looks awesome.

One thing I have a question about though......

I love BERRY juices in the morning. I have a L'Equip blender right now. But the little tiny seeds are a pain and I hate them!

Will the Vitamix pulverize those little tiny seeds in berries?????

Thank you!,

Dawn

The vitamix pulverizes the tiny seeds, but the texture of plain berries blended with water is a bit odd. The texture is just a tad bit sandy. It's hard to describe.
However, a mix of berries with other ingredients is delicious and you don't notice the texture at all. Blackberries blended with almond milk are awesome. Raspberries, rommaine and bananas make a great smoothie, too.

Yeah, the seeds aren't eliminated, but they're all cut into small pieces. I can always still tell there are berries in there, because of the little pieces, but it doesn't bother me.

Thank you! I really wish I could try one with the items I want to try in it! It sounds like I would like one though.

I am saving up for one and hopefully when they come to Costco this summer I can get one.

Since I have a blender, I am focusing first on the other items I need!

Thanks!,
