Moved to the Ascent X5 from an 11-year-old Blendtec for a stainless container and uses its programs daily for smoothies, ice cream, soup and nut butter.

Bought the X5 on sale and loves it; the +15 seconds button helps with thicker blends.
Has the Ascent X5 and finds it good, with nice build quality and the narrow 48 oz jar as good as the tall one.
Got the Ascent X5 but would just get a 5200 if doing it again.
Coming from a Ninja, loves their new Ascent X5: it cuts seeds so well they don't notice them; rates it 8/10.
Tried to replace their old Pro 750 with an Ascent X5, but its self-detect container stopped working a week out of the box and the included 48 oz container felt small for the price, so they went back to the 750.
Loves their Ascent X5, going strong for about 1.5 years; they make a lot of nut butter and like pressing a button and using the tamper rather than working the dial.
Bought the Ascent X5 stainless steel bundle on sale and finds it bomb-proof; the preset programs help their easily distracted household, and the stronger motor chews through everything.
