Did anyone ever get a replacement part or the dollars off on a new purchase?  (I didn't.)

I received my $70 Gift Card by email on the 16th of Jan. Thx to @sidsmom

I had to go check an old email addy I'm no longer using.

Did you request the replacement balde assembly or the gift card?

Yes...but mine was for $70.00 toward the purchase of another container.  The dry container is $149.00, so I may consider it.  Wish I had to option to purchase other accessories instead.

You are correct. It is $70. I edited my post to reflect the correct amount.

That’s Great!  

Just to reiterate for those jumping in to this thread,

the class action lawsuit is an either/or:

 

Either

-a new blade to be replaced by the owner

or

-$70 email gift code for the use on the Vitamix website

 

I applied my $70 towards a new 48oz low profile canister.

I received it last week...perfect how it fits nicely under the cabinets.

I requested the replacement part.  No plans to buy any accessories or a new Vitamix.

Re: Vitamix Class Action Suit

I hadn't heard of this nor I believe have I received a gift card.

 

I purchased a Vitamix about 5 or 6 years ago from the Q.  Model "Creations Elite".

 

Was everyone supposed to get one?...or only certain models?

Received email today from Vitamix who will be contacting those who opted for blade replacement.  They will advise when and how to return the container. Apparently, they will do the replacement and return YOUR ORIGINAL container.  Because of the numbers to be replaced, it will be done over a period of time.  Also, if you want to get the $70 gift card instead, that would be an option you could choose.
