Vitamix comparison

Vitamix Propel 510 vs 750

A plain-language look at the container, programs, controls, motor labels, and warranty labels that separate these two Propel blenders.

Concise answer

Choose the Propel 510 if its 48oz container and three programs cover what you plan to make. Choose the Propel 750 if you want the 64oz low-profile container, a fourth recipe program, a dedicated self-cleaning program, and the longer warranty. Vitamix lists a 2 HP motor for the 510 and a 2.2 HP motor for the 750. [2] [3]

The main difference is container size

The 510 includes a 48-ounce container, which Vitamix positions for individual servings and midsize blends. The 750 includes a 64-ounce low-profile container for larger batches. That makes the choice about the amount you usually make, not a universal household-size rule. [2] [3]

Other Vitamix containers may work with Propel bases, but exact fit, lids, tampers, and program behavior belong in the compatibility reference. For the role of a separately sold container, use the replacement-container guide.

Programs and self-cleaning

Both models have Smoothie, Hot Soup, and Frozen Dessert recipe programs. The 750 adds Dip & Spread and a dedicated Self-Cleaning Program. Self-Cleaning is separate from the four recipe programs, so it is not a fifth recipe program. [3] [4]

The 510 can be cleaned with warm water, dish soap, and variable speed, but it does not have the 750's automatic cleaning program. [4]

Motor, dimensions, and weight

Vitamix lists a 2 HP motor, 9 × 7.5 × 17.5 inch dimensions, and a 9.6-pound weight for the 510. For the 750, it lists a 2.2 HP motor, 9 × 7.5 × 18 inch dimensions, and a 10-pound weight. [2] [3]

Vitamix does not explain what that motor difference means in everyday use.

Warranty difference

The current product pages list a 5-Year Limited Warranty for the Propel 510 and a 7-Year Limited Warranty for the Propel 750. [2] [3] [5] [6]

Source note: the April 2024 shared manual uses Full Machine Warranty headings, while the current product and warranty pages use the Limited Warranty labels shown here. [4]

What stays the same

Both are Propel Series blenders with ten variable speeds, Pulse, BPA-free dishwasher-safe containers and lids, household use, and the same shared Propel 410/510/750 manual. [1] [2] [3] [4]

Who should choose the Propel 510

Choose the 510 if a 48-ounce container and three recipe programs fit what you make, you do not need a dedicated cleaning program, and the shorter current warranty label works for you.

Who should choose the Propel 750

Choose the 750 if you want a 64-ounce low-profile container, Dip & Spread, a dedicated Self-Cleaning Program, and the longer current warranty label.
