For those who are having difficulty deciding, more power doesnt really mean better outcome. If you are just looking to prepare smoothies & blends. See this side by side in depth comparison between E310/E320 & 5300 and you can make the choice. Hope that helps in deciding the direction of pulling the trigger.

Really good deal for the 5200 at $279. This matches the June's frontpage deal. Last time it was cheaper was in 2019 at $260, so I wouldn't bank on that happening again.

The 5200 is one of America's Test Kitchen most recommended for high-end blenders.

Is this overkill for just blending up frozen fruit for smoothies?

Under the About the Details section, the 5200 says 7 years warranty, Refurb Explorian says 3 years.

And soups in 5 minutes with friction heating, if you care for that.

yep.... the list goes on and on. I doubt any of those facts matter to the person who made that comment...

How does this compare to the Vitamix.com deal on the V1200 unit and accessories for $279.95 (5-year warranty) ?
Although refurbished, I like the V1200 deal from Vitamix for $280. Bought that.

I bought the 320 - love it. No reason to pay more IMO.

I probably use mine the most for this and it makes a nice smooth smoothie. It pulverizes anything and is easy to clean. I usually have 2 types of frozen fruit bags from Costco and throw that in with liquid of choice. Does veggies too if you like to add stuff like that.
