Not overkill if you really use it and up your consumption of fruits and veggies! But you have to take the time to use it.

Make sure the blender U purchase has a blade sharp enough so that U don't have to cut everything up in tiny pieces prior to blending. I have a Kitchen Aid blender, and I have to cut strawberries, bananas up very small or else I have chunks of it in my smoothie.

Vitamix is on my Wish List. The quiet one that they sell for $1000 or so. Yes, wish list

THE QUIET ONE®

Niiiiiiiiicceeeeee.

And of course they never quit. No good reason to buy a new one

..... where's that hammer....

Make sure the bottom inside is smooth. Mine had a depressed ring inside (if that makes sense) food was always staying down in that inverted ridge.

Mine smashed in the '94 quake.........haven't missed it

The Quiet One, to save $500.00 to $900.00, I'd put up with the noise of a cement mixer.
