(More customer reviews)My wife and I got a blender as a wedding gift, 3 months later, it was broken. So we bought another blender for $50 and a year later (after minimal use) it was broken. Then I worked at a company that gave you "reward points" for doing good work...it was an employee incentive program. After two years of accruing points, I got this Vita-Mix. Nothing compares to it. Smoothies are smooth. It makes excellent margaritas, grasshoppers, and daiquiris. I use the blender at least every other day. We got rid of our food processor and juicer and coffee grinder, because this blender does all those things perfectly. It's amazing at chopping up onions too. I cannot say enough good things about this blender. It is worth the money, because you know this blender will last forever. I've never had any problem with it.
It is expensive, and without the employee incentive program, I would never have owned one. But if this one ever breaks, getting a new one will be something I budget for.
