Our Verdict

Vitamix 5200

Vitamix Explorian E520

The Vitamix 5200 and the Vitamix Explorian E520 are very similar blenders with slight differences. While both blenders have a fairly similar overall performance, the 5200 model is quieter than the Explorian E520. However, the Explorian E520 has two tumblers for on-the-go use and a couple of programs for blending specific recipes like smoothies.
