Does anyone here own a Vita-mix?

One of these?

Tell me all about them.

I do - I have used it for about two years.
I make smoothies to get fruit and veg into my ds.
Probably saved a fortune doing so.
It uses all the fruit and veg including the pips
Use it most mornings - then have to give it a rest as he goes off things if I give them to him all the time
Also makes brilliant soups for me
Bonus - it is really easy to wash up
No pulp to clear up
I need to leave it out on my worktop to ensure I use it

Yes - we have had ours for about a year and a half I guess. It lives on the counter and yes we use it.
We make smoothies which is just about the best way for using fruit and feeling so good and healthy!
We also make soups a lot - again so quick and easy.
I have also made batter in it alot to make pancakes for breakfast when we are feeling like a treat.
I mush onions up in it too - then chuck them into other recipes.
Chops carrots up for carrot cake.
Have done all sorts of other stuff in it too.

We justified it by saying it would make puree-ing so easy for DD2 after the hassle it was with DD1 - but then we went BLW with DD2 so it hasn't really been used for that.

My parents also have one - and it lives in their cupboard most of the time...
