I love being able to make all sorts of well-blended sauces and smoothies in my large sized blender container. My original container is still going strong with little issues when I got it in 2015!
Pros: Texture Quality, Durability, Easy to use, Recipe Enhancement, Product features, Power
The 64oz container is ideal for making large-batch recipes of many blends. I MUCH prefer this narrower-bottom, Legacy-series style container due to the broader-based 64 oz containers because the blends seem smoother and more pleasing to my palate.
Pros: Programability, Texture Quality, Versatility, Recipe Enhancement, Product features, Power
My original container fell on the ground and cracked in half. This is an exact replacement. The Vitamix customer service helped me confirm that it was the right size. I just wish it wasn’t so expensive to replace the original!
I think the replacement container is overpriced. However, when the container breaks from a lot of use, the blender is useless without it. That said, the new container is working well and I have my smoothies back every morning.
