It is so worth the money! I tried to replace with a cheaper version …2 times! - don’t waste your time - get the original. Just hand wash - it’s the dishwasher that rusted out a little ring on the outside bottom

I purchased a new container because my original one has been around for over 15 years. I cannot wait for it to officially break down and be without. So now we can do more than one recipe back to back without cleaning up between.

Ten years for the bearing to wear out with moderate use. Actually was able to get bearings and rebuild the old one but caught a good sale so I went ahead and bought a new one. You can't go wrong with a vitamix.
I have had my Vitamix TurboBlend 4500 for many years and we use it daily. When I wore out my 2nd container and needed to buy a 3rd, I was so pleased to find the Classic 64-ounce Container was still available. It works beautifully with my old TurboBlend.
I purchased a new blender jar after the original (new 12 yrs ago) malfunctioned. I’m able to whip up delicious smoothies & shakes, salad dressings, and soups again!
