    Just got the Vitamix yesterday! Already made a bunch of smoothies, tortilla soup, banana "ice cream" and frosty basil lemonade. LOVE IT!!!

    I've had my Vitamix for a year, now, and use it EVERY SINGLE DAY! I make my protein shakes, and just made some delicious almond butter today, that's to die for. The only drawback is that's it's so loud! Therefore, I make my smoothies at night so I don't wake the whole house! Good luck!

    We've had our Vita-Mix for 8 years. Absolutely love it. I don't know anything about the other one.

    I've been doing research, and YESTERDAY I finally took the plunge (after three years of obsessing and several months of saving and coupon-seeking) and bought a Blendtec. It is beautiful, has excellent recipes that come with it, and the one jar (the FourSide jar) works for wet, and dry ingredients (with the Vitamix, you need two different jars for that). So far, I'm in love!

    I have a Vitamix and really love it- use it every day. I think it just came down to reputation when I was choosing. The Blendtec has that reputation of "blend anything, watch it blend an ipad" kind of thing. When I first got the Vitamix I thought there was something wrong with it. I called the call center and spoke to some one from this country who was very knowledgable. They had me send it back and they sent a new one out right away.
