Full details →Who the Vitamix 5200 Professional-Grade Blender 64 oz Container is for
Buy it if: Anyone making nut butters, whole-fruit smoothies or hot soup, who accepts the noise.
Avoid it if: Anyone with a noise-sensitive household, and anyone who does not verify the voltage variant.
Who the Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker 6 Qt is for
Buy it if: Anyone who wants unattended, timed cooking and will adjust timings upward from stovetop recipes.
Avoid it if: Anyone expecting stovetop-cooker speed -- lower pressure plus preheat makes it slower, not faster.
