Jim, Here you go. That's great the one you got has a lifetime warranty. I just ordered the 5200 model and it came with a 7 year parts service warranty. Let me know how you make out. www.vitamix.com -Original Message- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:blindhandy...@yahoogroups.com]on Behalf Of jim Sent: Thursday, April 01, 2010 11:36 AM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Vita Mix hi does anyone have the address or web site for vita mix? i have one of there blenders from the early 70s and they say it has a life time garentee on them so i would like to get it worked over. i wonder if they still are all metal construction? this thing is built like a tank in Minnesota [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

If you want a vita mix, check out the Health Master, it is like the Vita Mix but much much cheaper. They can be purchased at Bed Bath and Beyond for $200.00 I paid $450.00 for my Vita Mix..

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Vita Mix
I believe the Vitimix can be had for about $300 from Costco. Check around, I did not pay that much for mine, I think it was a little over $300 or $350. Of course I got mine over 10 years ago and it is still just as good as new. Whatever you get, just make sure it meets your needs, that is more important than which brand/model.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Vita Mix
Scott, Thanks for the update. Vita Mix is recommending the 5200 series for household use. It currently sells for $459.00I have seen other models on Amazon E Bay. I don't think you can get the free in home 30 day trial from the store.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Vita Mix
My wife and I have had one for a number of years. They are very friendly as last I checked the controls are still switches and a rotating knob. I will tell you that this is one serious machine that has the ability to take a solid potato and turn it into liquid. In my opinion, they are well worth the money and will last a very long time.
