The Today's Special Value is the new model: Vitamix Creations GC. "GC" stands for "Galaxy Class". They have stated that the motor is 2.25 HP so it is "the most powerful Vitamix ever sold on QVC."

All of the Vitamixes I could find on Vitamix.com only have 2HP. Does anyone think 1/4 more horsepower makes THAT much of a difference?

I bought the 5200 from QVC this past August when it was the TSV. Since I have only been "power blending" for 4 months, I am not experienced enough to know whether .25 HP makes that much of a difference. I am very happy with my Vitamix, but I would be a little disappointed to know there is a better, more powerful unit for only slightly more money since I bought mine so recently.

Thanks for your help!
