The Machine

So this is the Vitamix.

It's looks like your average belender.

But don't be fooled, this is a blender on steroids!

The base of the machine weighs 15 lbs. and the clear plastic the container is made out of is the same plastic used to make airplane windows.

They claim that it can blend rocks, yes rocks, into powder. This voids the warranty though, so we haven't (and probably never will) attempt it.

It comes with a warranty of 8 years. The man who sold us the machine claimed he had owned his machine for the last 18 years. We are hoping to own our Vitamix for at least that long after shelling out $500 for it!
