400 bucks for a blender ?!?!

Date of Review:  Nov 16, 2000
Review: If anyone had ever predicted that I....would have a 400 dollar blender, I would have laughed out loud in their face.

The fact remains, that I (we) do have a 400 hundred dollar blender. And, frankly we like it. It's well built, blends...

Really Worth the Price

Date of Review:  Apr 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: Don't waste money trying to find a less expensive blender that will do what this does. It doesn't exist. This is a great product and well worth the money.
Review: I had researched the Vita-Mix for about 5 years. I kept asking my husband for one, but he would always insist that we didn't need it- we could buy a nice blender and be fine. Wrong. Finally, 2 years ago he bought me one and it has been used every...

Vita-screwup

Date of Review:  May 24, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you enjoy boxing things up, heading to the post office, digging out your hard earned money to make a return - BUY IT.
Review: To the point.

Out of the box the first Vitamix machine had blade bearing problems. Returned and exchanged. Simply poor luck, I thought. Try 2; the next Vitamix's motor died after 2 shy weeks.

No I wasn't trying to cut trees with...

A Expensive Blender? No a whole lot more!

Date of Review:  Oct 7, 2000
Review: About 3 years ago, I was shopping in the PX and they were demonstrating the Vita-Mix Blender. I was in awe! A blender that you can make ice cream with?? And veggie juice? and SOUP??? No way, I thought. Well, I tried a sample of salsa that came out...

All Purpose kitchen item

Date of Review:  Apr 30, 2000
Review: Been using Vita-Mix 5000 for over 1 year now and can't believe I lived this long without it. My "health concious" friend recommend it and so I tried her's first because I was skeptical. After 1 week of using her's I didn't want to give it back, so I...

Good product, good company. Worth the money.

Date of Review:  Aug 12, 2000
Review: Aside from the time my dad tossed a metal spoon into the container, our two Vita-Mix 5000's have performed flawlessly for the past couple years.

The Vita-Mix is the same blender as the ones used in some commercial smoothie shops. Its...

VITA MIX BLENDER: Simply an amazing machine!!

Date of Review:  Aug 15, 2000
Review: Simply an amazing machine

My new vita mix joined the rest of my appliance family early this month. I researched this purchase for over six months. I started asking on cooking message boards and health related message boards for advice in...

Former Vita Mix Dealer says...: Good for Some Things Not for Others

Date of Review:  Sep 10, 2000
The Bottom Line: Although this machine is very useful, it doesn't do all of the jobs advertised as well as I expected. However, there are many good uses for this machine.
Review: SHOULD I OR SHOULDN'T I?

I have debated on whether or not to give my opinion on the Vita Mix. You see, I have been involved with the Vita Mix Company for about 13 or 14 years now.


WHY DID WE GET A VITA MIX?

When we...

Vita Mix 5000, 9 years old!!

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2009
The Bottom Line: If you eat soups, dips, ice cream, sauces, smoothies, blended drinks regularly this is a wonderful machine that is worth the money! I've had mine 9 years and love it!
Review: I went to many home shows and watched this machine in action for years.  I love to cook and if I can cook easily and simply and quickly I'm excited!

We (I say 'we' because a $400 machine is definitely a 'we' purchase.) purchased the machine...
