I bought the aer disc container last month. Everything I have tried turned out great. The only downside is the small number of recipes included.
Pros: Easy to use, Versatility, Power

I recently received the new Aer Disc container and it is fantastic! Since I've had it, I made hot chocolate with the sugar free mini chips, I have muddled with it to make incredible fruit drinks.....I haven't used it for everything yet because I haven't had it long enough.....I am really looking forward to making those delicious fruit waters in the summer....I did make the strawberry lemonade and that was so yummy! I highly recommend this new container....I have had my Vitamix for 8 years and this was a terrific addition...it is a great concept and it works!
Pros: Speed of Service, Texture Quality, Durability, Easy to use, Versatility, Recipe Enhancement, Product features, Power

I bought the Aer container for the foaming feature. It’s perfect for making my favorite lattes. It makes a much better latte than the original vitamix container. I like the bonus of being able to make mayos and dressings.
Pros: Texture Quality

Actually, I don't really get the unique features of the Aer, maybe it is a bit pass my culinary capabilities. I just feel like I have two separate pitchers now--one with sharp pointed blades and the other with rounds ones.
Pros: Other

The container with blades will purée, chop, grate and grind while the Aer Disc will master whipping, muddling, foaming, and emulsifying. Liquid ingredients are pulled through small holes in the spinning disc, aerating and emulsifying them, while firmer ingredients like ice, fruit, and herbs are agitated but not puréed.

First, I have owned and used my vita mix for over 8 years now and use it frequently throughout the week. It is a great device for the kitchen. This review is for the Aer Disc Container only.
I am not sure it is worth the price for what use I have got out of it so far. It is well-made and functions fine, but does it do a better or different job than the original container? Some things yes. For example, if you would like a cold drink over crushed ice, this will keep the ice from blending up in the drink. Maybe during the summer months when I am making more cocktails this will become my go to gadget.
The “recipe" book was a bit disappointing with 10 recipes repeated three times in different languages. And the examples that they give are uninspiring such as whip cream. The book probably was intended to show the different ways this device could be used. I thought the original Vita mix recipe book was really well-done and useful so I was expecting the same quality.
So in summary, so far this device falls short only in that it does not do much more that I can already do in the original container. If money and space is not a priority in your life, go ahead and buy this item and maybe you will find a purpose for it.
Pros: Speed of Service, Durability, Easy to use, Power
