There are the blenders you can buy at your local store, and then there’s the VitaMix 5200. This is a SUPER blender! Well, it’s kind of beyond “super,” to be honest.
I’ve had the pleasure of trying this out and it was by far the most powerful blender I have ever used. As the company says “whole foods aren’t just blended in the 5200; they are pulverized – seeds, stems, skin and all. By rupturing cell walls and creating more surface area, the Vita-Mix releases the full bioavailability – and flavor – of what you put in it, making it the ultimate whole food machine.”
If your mom likes to cook, she will LOVE this. If your mom is too busy to cook and wants to whip up an awesome smoothie or quick bowl of gazpacho, she will LOVE this. Either way, you’re covered.
