I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.

Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I'll never use a crappy blender again.

Anything else like that?

Absolutely. Even something as simple as a fresh fruit shake comes out so much smoother from the Vitamix. As the person who commented below you also mentioned, it is great for making soups as well. I have the food processor attachment and it's mind-blowing how much quicker I'm able to prep my food because of it. I haven't gotten the dry mixing bowl yet, but a buddy of mine uses it when making flour and swears by it.

Is it overkill for most, probably, but given it's going to last me for at least 10 years, I'm okay with the purchase price.

I bought a refurbished from the Vitamix site for half the price, looked brand new. Had gone through 3 ninja blenders before getting a Vitamix, this one's had no issues going on 6yrs now.
