VitamixE310 Explorian Blender, Professional-Grade, 48 oz. Container, Red

I had a Vitamix in my coffee house/restaurant over 30 years ago, before most of us didn't know about them! It was amazing; made smoothies mostly in it at the time. When the restaurant closed, I took it home, and used it until ...I can't remember! I believe it was due to needing to replace the container. At the time, the cost was extremely prohibitive. Fast forward...my latest blender was $25.00, a KitchenAid, from Goodwill; have had it for ...I think about 4 or 5 years. It started leaking; away it went! And OMG, just from making almond milk, which I make fresh every few days, and my morning smoothie today...I am so glad and excited to have this beautiful strong Vitamix on board!! It is not that noisy , wow, from the reviews I read on it's noisiness...umm...no, not my experience! It's way quieter than the one I just tossed! I really wanted a glass container, but really wanted the Vitamix, so...I'm OK with the clear BPA -less container. Love that it can go in the dishwasher. And will probably leave the base on the counter , covered with a dishtowel so it doesn't get dirty or greasy from being near the stove, and store the container underneath in a cabinet. So excited to make soup, and all kinds of smoothies with lots of add in's that I normally would juice vs. pop in the blender. Yes this is expensive, but.....yes will save money by not buying things that now I can make at home really easily. I imagine this will be my life time blender! It's beautiful too, by the way. :-).

There is nothing better than a vitamixer

I resisted buying a Vitamix for a long time. I thought it was an indulgence that I didn't need. when my very good old blender died, I replaced it with a newer model--almost worthless. it wouldn't even blend all of a banana in a smoothie. my daughter recommended a ninja, and I got one, but I hated it. the noise! that tower of blades! this vitamix, on the other hand, is the bomb. straight out of the box I used it to blend a batch of palak paneer into a sauce for topping veggie bowls. I couldn't get all the residue out of the bottom, so I threw in the last of the beans and an avocado, with some lime and spice, and hey presto, spicy avocado dip! it took no time at all to make a very smooth and creamy product with both these blends. my only question is, how do you scrape out the residue trapped in the bottom--not for cleaning, for avoiding waste--? and it is not nearly as loud as that refund Oster blender that now goes to Goodwill. I did not buy a larger more powerful model because I'm just cooking for me, but I did spring for the stainless steel blender container, and I love it! the amount of turmeric in my very first blend would have turned the plastic container yellow forever.
