Our Verdict

Vitamix A3500

Vitamix ONE

The Vitamix A3500 is better than the Vitamix ONE. The A3500 has a much better build quality and a larger capacity. It's much more versatile since it can make nut butter and snow-like crushed ice, and you can use it for hot blending. It's also significantly quieter when it's running.
