The Vitamix container is fastened to the base (and often stored that way), then loaded through the top. With the NutriBullet, one loads the container (only one opening), then screws on the blade head, which is then inserted into the base. In short, I never store the parts assembled (wouldn't make any sense) so they don't stand tall at all and fit just about anywhere. That's why it's so good for RVs at work, etc. There are many good arguments for Vitamix, but this isn't really a relevant one.
