I have the most basic model.  That is really all I need.  But for my niece and her boyfriend this Christmas I want to give them a model they could really use daily.  Both are excellent cooks, so I was thinking the version with the dry container might be the best bet.  Since I don't believe there is another Vitamix TSV coming, which one would you recommend?  Thanks so much in advance for your replies.

What a lovely gift! I would check the VM website. They hvae model comparison charts, and offer reconditioned deals

I bought the 7500 for my daughter.  She wanted a model to fit underneath her kitchen cabinets.

I have the 6300 that I bought from Costco.    

I would not buy one without the variable speeds and settings.  We love soup and frequently use the soup setting to make a single serving lunch or dinner when we happen to be eating alone.  

I love my Vitamix and would never be without one.   I don't have the dry container but I don't make my own flours.  I can see where that would be handy though.

I'm sure they will love any model you get for them.  That is a wonderful, generous gift!

I would definitely gift the one that has the "under counter" size carafe.  I bought the first TSV and it had the tall model and although I use the tall carafe, I bought the smaller one on the website so I could store the unit on my counter.  I don't have low cabinets either, new house with quite a bit of room.  It's helped me considerably.  I use the smaller carafe all the time..... and yes to variable speeds, etc.....and WHAT a great gift~!

I'm sure they would be happy with any Vitamix machine. Q has a Vitamix TSV Sun. Nov 15th. From their guide it looks like Vitamix shows all day Sun.

Does anyone know what model is the TSV on Nov 15th? thanks

Hi @sashamatthews, a few months back a good friend's Vitamix finally bit the dust and I researched the various Vitamixes and where to find the best values on Vitamixes. -- I shared this information in the Vitamix - comparing the three different model lines  thread. I've moved the thread up because I thought you might want to look at it.
