    Sounds like a fantastic machine. I might have to check it out. By the sounds of it, I don't think I will be able to find one in a thrift store that is for sure.

It does everything you can think of when you use the right way. You can grind meat and on and on. Our daughters made their own babyfoods with theirs. No additives, no preservatives, no things you can't pronounce. Only pure natural food.

    You can go on the vitamix website and they have tons of recipes and google vitamix recipes and you should find tons of websites with recipes and ideas. Don't be afraid to think up your own ideas that would please yourself and your family. I have yet to find anything to fail. Fresh vegetables work great and even if you don't like some veges but know it's good for you....you probably won't even taste it in the mix you create making it so healthy.

    We like to eat our food in as natural a form as possible. You can create anything you can think of with it. Plus all you have to do for cleanup it put a bit of dishsoap and water in it and put it back on the machine and whirl away and you are done.

    No don't work for them but sure wish we had stock in that company......love, love that machine!

    Everything you said is DITTO DITTO. Love ours bunches. If you have a SAMS, they have demonstrations and samples for them. I cant say enough good about them. Good Luck!!

    I looked it up. A bit pricy for sure but evidently made to last a lifetime and then some. I might just have to check out Sam's the next tiime I am there. My "blender" is the pits.

    I have had mine for about 10 years and love it. I don't use it as much as I should but would never get rid of it. There are some recipes on their web site and my machine came with a nice recipe book. I'm sure you can find more recipes by doing a google search for vita mix recipes.

    Have had ours well over 12 years. We use it about 4 out of 7 days a week. Love it. Still works well after all these years.

    I have been reading up on it on the internet. Seems to be a great thing from what everyone says. What kind of day to day things do you use it for?
