Hello, I currently have a blender that unfortunately can't handle harder things like nuts or seeds anymore. Cleaning it is always very time-consuming because it cannot be disassembled. I am looking for a blender that really grinds everything down. So also things like peanuts, chia seeds, sunflower seeds. In addition, apples, pears, or other fruits should not just become a puree with small pieces but be ground really fine (pure puree). I always make a smoothie out of this that covers a large part of my vitamin and mineral needs.

So here are my requirements:
-Grinds nuts and seeds "to dust"
-Can crush ice
-2L capacity
-Easy to clean

-Quiet appliances are preferred
-Automatic running time (e.g., 30 sec) is preferred
-Glass instead of plastic containers is preferred
-Quality is a must

I use the device almost daily. Durability should not be neglected. If glass containers with secure closures for filling are included, that would be an additional bonus.

I can imagine a price up to €500. However, it must then be a top device that flawlessly meets my requirements and wishes. My targeted price would be more around €200-300. But even then, my requirements marked in bold should be fulfilled.

Vitamix TNC5200 .. actually classic - but does not have a glass container, in this version no timer programs and is anything but quiet (however, quiet is not an option with these blenders)

This "heat function" is confusing me a bit right now. :) It must surely be a byproduct of the blender and not an additional feature? I could do without that. Unfortunately, the price is a bit above the limit. Hopefully, it can be a bit cheaper.

I think it costs 550 € - it actually doesn't have a heating function... it may get warm if it mixes for too long.

Got the Omniblend V. Have been using it almost daily for 1.5 years. What can you say about a high-performance blender, whatever goes in is broken down into molecular components :D

They are all loud.

Take a Thermomix. Then you have peace. It’s just slightly over budget but works perfectly.

The only *QUIET* and *CRUSH ICE* is a contradiction in any device. That’s not possible.
