From the UK and want to look into getting a Vitamix model. Won't be able to afford it anytime soon, maybe even with the Black Friday sales, but want to know if anyone from the UK has any recommendations. Looking for something with a crazy long warranty to give me comfort as I've had two Ninja blenders in the span of 5 years that didn't last long. Need something relatively quiet and can shred seeds in protein smoothies in less than a minute or so (to not deal with making loud noise especially in the morning).

I've read a fair amount of reviews that say pretty much all have the same performance so it just comes down to features. According to Rating.com the A3500i is the most quiet out of all the UK models available but that the A2300 and A2500 are good options too for the 10 year warranty. Not bothered by large containers as I'd be aiming to make smoothies/protein shakes single serve every day around 500-600ml in total unless I just make two servings and store one in the fridge for next day consumption. E310, E320 and E520 are also available and cheaper but supposedly and marginally more noisy.
