Chose the A2300 because it works with the Vitamix app for other models' presets, then found the app is hard or impossible to get on newer Android phones. Regrets the buying reason and wonders whether to return it.

Had the A2300 a little over a month and says it has been great, loves using it. The only problem is the 20 oz and 8 oz bases are not detected and just show dashes, while the 64 oz container works fine.
Bought the A2300 in a Costco deal and loves it, but regrets not getting the A3300 or A3500 because timed blending would be helpful for soups and similar.
Bought two A2300 kits because the 20 oz to-go cups were not detected. Vitamix explained the cup needs tightening further than leak-proof before the sensors line up. Works once tightened with two hands on the cup.

What does the signal score of 52 mean?
It's how well reviewed Vitamix Ascent A2300 is, out of 100, next to the other blenders here. Two things go in: how its reviews compare with the best-reviewed appliance (positive reviews, mixed counting half, and how many reviews there are), and its own negative and mixed reviews, which take points off, so only a appliance few people are unhappy with scores in the high 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
