Best Size Container

Best size container, I consistently use this over the skinny 64oz container and the 20oz personal cups.

This is the perfect size for doing smoothies and blends perfectly. I gave it a 4 star just because it doesn't fit perfectly on the base I have and moves around a little while blending, but everything still seems to blend fine.
Pros: Texture Quality, Durability, Easy to use, Power

I am loving the shorter size! The lid fits nice and tightly, and who knew you could use it to grate hard cheese!

Dropped my old container and had to order a new one.. It was expensive but worth it, ordered a shorter size and I honestly like it much better. It blends better then the original.

Retired Tritan container after 5 years
on March 1, 2021
Posted by: jetlag
I received my 48 ounce container for the 5200 model in 2016. (The 5200 base unit had received occasional use from 2013-2015 with the 64 ounce container.) This 48 ounce container has a three year warranty. Prior to 2018, I used it several times a week, by which time it was discolored by the ribs after many mocha frappes. Beginning in 2018, I adopted a healthier diet. It received daily use in 2018-2019, and in the past year, I have used it 3-4 times per day for smoothies, shakes, supplement drinks, soups, spicy hot cocoa with homemade hempseed milk, gluten-free sweet potato bread dough, and beautifully emulsified salad dressings. Above the ribs, on the round 1/3 inside top of the container, I could no longer remove cocoa stains, even with scrubbing. I finally wore this container out. In the last two weeks, it didn’t spray from the top, but leaked slightly underneath at the bottom, and when cleaning the bottom outside of the container, I would discolor my dishcloth with a black substance that looked like the rubber bottom. So, if you buy a Tritan container, it won’t remain pretty, but it may well last longer than its guaranteed life. I hope this review gives someone an idea of how to budget for a replacement blender container. If looks are important, plan to replace it at least every two years. But If product utility and longevity is important, consider making a line item in your budget for a 54-60 month replacement schedule. As the base unit still works well, I upgraded to a stainless steel container which I received today, March 1, 2021. RIP, Tritan 48. (BTW, my 64 ounce container is still useful for larger blends, or for the very occasional batch of frozen margaritas, and for puréeing hot soups made in my Dutch oven. It is still pretty, but it spends most of its time in a cabinet). I am on a special diet, and I usually cook for one to two servings, unless I choose to refrigerate salad dressings or freeze meals for later.
Pros: Texture Quality, Durability, Easy to use, Versatility, Recipe Enhancement, Power

I like this smaller container for my protein shakes in the morning! However, I am glad I hung on to my old larger container for making soups and such.
