Does anyone know when the next TSV on Vitamix will be?

Which one do you recommend? I'm about to pull the plug and buy one.

Like you I contemplated it for years.....bought it in Nov and ended up returning it. It is like having a lawn mower on your kitchen counter.

The small chop has to be a wet chop major work and mess. The soups require pre cooked food. I did not like how the container cleaned up. The top is a workout to pull on and off.....guessing that's why Jan does it on the presentations. It also drips. That stick is a mess, you can't really do small batches. Q is wonderful about returns but I am tired of going to the P.O.

I love mine. Initially, I returned one because I thought I shouldn't spend that much money. Then I watched the demos showing how it used ALL of the apple, pineapple etc, even the core. Since I am not big on veggies, the Vitamix allows me to throw in spinach for a lot of smoothies and soups that I normally would not be eating. You can't do that with cheaper blenders. I love making soup in 7 minutes. I precook the broccoli in the microwave while I put the other ingredients in the Vitamix, so precooking is not a big deal. I highly recommend it. Give it a try and if you don't like it, return it.

No idea, but there's certain to be one, since they seem incapable of going more than a few weeks without presenting one... None in my future, but if you buy one, enjoy it...

Purchase the Vitamix! It's one of my best purchases ever. I use mine at least twice a day, everyday.

We bought our Vitamix 2 years ago and have used it almost every day with no problems. Best purchase we ever made from QVC.

I did the same--bought one and returned it as I thought it was too much money for the use I would get from it. Later on I bought another one and I'm happy to have it. I still need to do soups in it. I would recommend a Vitamix.

Get one!! Just be sure it is the variable speed one and you will never ever regret your purchase.

I bought my Vitamix in 2007 and it's still going strong. It makes amazingly smooth green smoothies, which a cheap blender cannot do. I've burnt out at least four cheap blenders, so in the end, it costs less to purchase a Vitamix than replacing cheap blenders. My seamstress's Vitamix lasted 30 years before it broke down

I love mine, use it 3 or 4 times a week, mostly for fruit and veggie smoothies.

Very powerful motor that mixes things better than a regular blender.
