User questions & answers

Question:	what country is the blender made
Answer:	The KitchenAid KSM8990 SpecSheet states "COMMERCIAL-GRADE ACCESSORIES COME STANDARD." Then it lists "Stainless Steel Spiral Dough Hook, Stainless Steel Flat Beater, Stainless Steel Elliptical 11-Wire Whip, 8-Qt Brushed Stainless Steel Bowl with “J” Style Handle."
Question:	Can the blender be used for chopping and grinding? Or is it just designed for smoothies
Answer:	I have bought 3 of these in the past 4 years and 2 have already broken. I am mixing cake batter and buttercream with it, not dough, and it does have breaks between use. The handle on the bowl is only attached at one point, not two points on the bowl like the home models. I have had problems with the handles breaking off because you of course have more weight in a bowl that will hold 8 quarts vs. 5 quarts. Personally I am disappointed with the commercial mixer! I have a Kitchenaid 5 quart that is around 20 years old that still works great, but have had no luck with the commercial series.
Question:	Glass or plastic container
Answer:	2 quart less than 10 quart, depending on your needs when using. Bumping up to 10 quarts probably means a commercial mixer obviously. Value wise, I think the 8 quart is a steal.
Question:	removable blades for cleaning
Answer:	I'm a chef that has been using the kitchen aid commercial series at work for many years now. The commercial kitchen aid has better horsepower than the proline series. So your awnser really depends on what you need the mixer for. If you are using it at home every now and then the proline works just fine. If you plan to use it a lot, like powering through cold butter to whip it, or large batches of doughs, whipped cream in under 30 seconds the commercial is the way to go. Personally I try to buy all commercial grade items for my home as well, they tend to cost more but the hold up better and longer, and always have more power. Hope this helps.

Built to Last

A bargain blender's not a bargain if it doesn't last. We know purchasing a Vitamix blender is an investment. But Vitamix blenders are built to last, helping you buy dependable, not disposable.

Easy to Clean

Just blend warm water and a drop of dish soap at your machine's highest speed, and watch it self-clean in 60 seconds or less - no disassembly required.

The Difference Is in the Blend

Since the number-one reason people purchase a blender is to make smoothies, it’s important to get them right. Whether you prefer an icy blend or a perfectly smooth puree, nutrition-packed with veggies or a light, fruity treat, Vitamix smoothies give you a delicious, even blend in every sip.

Power

We don’t aim to have the highest horsepower. You don’t need more horses; you need trained ones. The focused power of our complete blending system causes every component of the Vitamix machine to work together, creating faster, smoother blends packed with flavor.

The Universal Tool

Make smoothies & juices, hot soups, flours & dough, nut butter, frozen desserts, batters, dressings & sauces, non-dairy milks, and more.

Manufactured in Cleveland, Ohio USA

Troubleshooting All Vitamix Blenders include thermal sensors designed to shut the unit off when overheating. When this occurs, turn the power off for up to 45 minutes, allowing the blender to cool down or reset. Always check your speed: Vitamix blenders perform best on High speed to pulverize food and process thick mixture. Check the quantity and density of your blend. Follow the order of ingredients. Use the Tamper. When in doubt, refer to your owner’s manual for tips or visit the Vitamix homepage for techniques videos.”

• Variable Speed Control: Easily adjust speed to achieve a variety of textures. The dial can be rotated at any point during the blend, so you’re in complete control
• Large Batches: The size and shape of the self-cleaning 64-ounce container is ideal for blending medium to large batches. Design Feature : Radial cooling fan and thermal protection system
• Hot Soup: The blades in the Vitamix container reach speeds fast enough to create friction heat, bringing cold ingredients to steaming hot in about six minutes
• Hardened Stainless-Steel Blades: Our aircraft-grade stainless steel blades are designed to handle the toughest ingredients, so from the first blend to the last, you get the same quality results
• Self-Cleaning: With a drop of dish soap and warm water, your Vitamix machine can clean itself in 30 to 60 seconds.
• What's in the Box: motor base, 64 oz. container, getting started guide, DVD, classic tamper.
• 7- year full warranty. Electrical Ratings - 120 V, 50/60 Hz, 11.5 Amps

User questions & answers

Question:	Can anyone recommend a good scrapper to remove all the contents from the glass container? I feel like I'm leaving too much behind
Answer:	From Amazon - Oxo 1241581 good grips jar spatula. I have the flat spatula that comes with the Vitamix but I wanted something better. Order two because you may wish like I did that I'd done that and had to reorder.
Question:	if i buy it from amazon, is the warranty still valid
Answer:	If I buy this and ship to international, how can I have the warranty?
Question:	can it be used as a juicer
Answer:	In the strict sense, no. Juicers extract the juice (water) from the plants. The vitamix blends the plants into a smooth concoction. You do need to add juice or water to do this but would be amazed at how little. If your goal is to create the healthiest and tastiest drink than go with the vitamix and make a smoothie. You will read that he advantage of smoothies is fiber, but that is not completely true. Think about how much of the vitamins, anti-oxidants that are left in the plant itself after you extract out the water/juice. Especially in non-juicy plants like; spinach, kale, carrots, etc... Plus you can throw in healthy juice, protein power, Metamucil, etc... into the vitamix and it will blend it all into a very smooth drink. But if a smoothie is not your idea of a meal and you just want a healthy juice to go with your meal/breakfast than I would go with a juicer, not the vitamix. It blends extremely well but does not extract. Hope that helps.
Question:	Can it blend an Iphone
Answer:	Please do not blend your iPhone.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the pitcher really able to be cleaned in the dishwasher? Won't the rather harsh dishwashing soaps score the plastic
Answer:	The unit is made in China
Question:	Is it good for grinding ice in a smoothie
Answer:	Second picture from the top ~ Shows all the dimensions.
Question:	Is the pitcher made of glass
Answer:	yes the doors are reversible. I am impatient and refused to read the instructions or even look in the bag for the 2 plastic replacement pieces. What should have taken me 30 minutes or less took me 2 hours. When I finally looked into the bag to grab the instructions that's when I saw the replacement pieces. I am a woman, you can bet I was the butt of everybody's jokes later on. After finding the replacement pieces getting the doors to work right was a snap.
Question:	Is this the ice blue color
Answer:	About 100 watts when running, and about 400 on startup. I have had mine for a couple of months now and it has been great.

Question:	What color is this
Answer:	Plastic, but really thick and sturdy.
Question:	Is it ok to put hot food like soups in this blender
Answer:	There are 5 shelves and they are removeable. So if you have something really tall it would work. I really like this freezer.
Question:	How many watts is this blender
Answer:	Unplug the freezer. Remove all frozen foods from the interior and allow the accumulated frost and ice to melt. (Prop/block the door open) DO NOT USE a hairdryer or other type of heater to expedite the melting process as damage to the interior plastic may occur. Wipe the moisture/water from the walls and floor of the unit after the ice/frost has melted (bath towels work well). Put all of your frozen food back in the freezer. Plug the unit back in to the AC power receptacle.
Question:	Is the pitcher glass
Answer:	It is normal. Many brands and sizes of refrigerators and freezers have the motor/compressor exposed at the bottom rear of the cabinet.
