I've wanted a Vitamix for quite a while, and cannot be happier with my purchase. It does everything claimed for it, and seems very well made. I make large batches of soup on a regular basis, and have been making smoothies and vegetable juices just about every day since I took delivery of the machine, almost two months at this writing. I've also made nut butter a couple of times, and once or twice a week I make a big batch of almond milk. The machine's used a lot, and it's never missed a beat. The 64oz capacity of the container is appreciated. I would like the option for a stainless steel container though ... not a big fan of plastic. I also like the idea that I can get a smaller container for this machine as there are times when I'd like to take advantage of the benefits of the 32oz container.
A bonus was the good price I got ... a new machine with full warranty for less than a refurbished machine!
While the blender is noisy, it's not as loud as I thought it would be. I'm very happy with this purchase.

I was hesitant to spend this much on a blender because there are $30.00 blenders out there & I'm no chef. After watching some You Tube demos, I decided it would be worth it because two of my favorite foods would taste better when freshly made - hummus & nut butters. I've used the peanut grinder at "Whole Foods" a couple of times & I noticed the peanut butter tasted much better than store bought. And you don't have to work hard trying to mix it like store-bought nut butters. But it's way too pricey.
I just received the Vitamix today. This model has the shorter, wider jar that fits under cabinets. My house was built in 1954 & it barely fits under my kitchen cabinets with the cap on the jar, but I wouldn't store it that way, anyway. I prefer to allow air to circulate in the jar. It easily fits under my cabinets without the cap.
After cleaning the jar as recommended (which takes a couple of minutes), I made a large batch of hummus, using the recipe in the included book. Even though I forgot to put one of the ingredients (ground cumin) on my shopping list, it was absolutely spectacular - the taste couldn't be better, and I'm very picky...
