The Vitamix Difference

Vitamix Vortex

Every angle of our patented container is designed to fold ingredients back to the blades creating the Vitamix Vortex for faster, smoother blends.

Long-Lasting Blades

Our laser-cut blades are designed to deliver the same quality results, from first blend to last, and are resistant to dulling or bending.

Easy to Clean

The container and lid are both dishwasher-safe, or let them self-clean by blending a drop of dish soap and warm water for 35 seconds.

Quality Construction

Containers and lids are made of durable, BPA-free Eastman Tritan.
