This old Vita-mix 3600 blender model is way different from the Vitamix blenders you see today, which are more good looking and classy. This one is literally a stainless steel packed blender wherein almost every part are made from stainless steel. Now, that's iron clad!
By the way it looks, you could easily say it's ancient but this old blender proves that Vitamix blenders can withstand boundaries of time and that they are way more than their price tags.
All those years of manufacturing great quality blenders, helped Vitamix Corporation perfect both the design and functionalities of every Vitamix blender they produce.
So how long do you think would the current models of Vitamix last?
I bet recent models could surpass the Vitamix 3600 blender a thousand fold not only with durability but in performance as well.
A Vita-mix Blender is indeed the excellent choice for every kitchen. Cook a steaming soup in demand (from scratch!), juice fruits and vegetables juicer recipes, and create homemade ice creams???
Yes, all these things including ice creams, and many more! I did mention that it can replace up to 10 appliances in your kitchen, did I? It's an all in one kitchen appliance that can cook soups and mix ice creams...
Durable as it is, Vitamix blenders come with long 7 full long years of warranty from the date of purchase guaranteeing that your machine is free from defects be it in parts or performance.
Basically, they guarrantee that your machine will perform like new for full seven years or they'll fix it it for free!
Sounds like a good deal ain't it? But if the Vitamix 3600 blender could last for 40 years, you may never even use such a warranty.
Each Vita-mix Blender comes full-packed with features and the following are the common features that you find on every Vitamix blender.
Below are blender reviews of selected Vitamix blenders to give
you more insights on each of these selected model.
The CIA Restaurant Commercial blender was brought about by the partnership between Vitamix and the Culinary Institure of America or CIA. It was used to train more than 37,000 Chefs and food service professionals including a lot of celebrity Chefs.
If you're not sure about the quality of thsi blender, go ahead and ask your favorite celebrity Chef to see what he or she thinks about this Commercial quality blender.
Like any other Vitamix blenders, it could easily handle the functions of many other appliances. It could blend, puree, chop, grind, juice, etc, etc, etc., all in this one multi-functioning kitchen machine.

The strongest advantage that one would get when getting a Vita-mix blender is of course its multi-function capabilities. It means that you no longer won't need appliances like food processor, coffee grinders, mixers, and many more when you have a Vitamix Blender around since all of the functions of those appliances are within your reach with a single Vita-mix!
It's large pitcher allows you to blend and process a lot of food variations in huge batches that's enough to serve a regular sized family.
The seven full long years of warranty offers more than enough assurance and peace of mind considering the amount of the machine. So whenever you feel that it's not functioning "like new" within the seven year warranty period, feel free to contact support!
The variable speed control let's you prepare your food just the way you like it; allowing you full control of the process.
Of course, no other blender I know in the market that could keep up with Vitamix's performance, except Blendtec blenders of course.
There were some users who have complained about the noise that a Vitamix blender produces but then if you'd compare it with most blenders, you'll find out that most produces the same amount of noise with some even greater at less performance.
It's tall size has been an issue for many users since they can't fit it in the limited kitchen counter space. The enormous size of this blender is both an advantage and a disadvantage so in choosing between Vitamix and Blendtec (which is shorter), is a matter of preference.
A Vitamix blender normally weighs about 14 lbs which some users find quite heavy. The solution for this would be to place it (semi) permanently in a kitchen corner where you could use it comfortably without the need for moving it around. Vitamix blenders have massive motors so they'd naturally weigh more than their counterparts. They're the ones doing the heavy lifting!
A Vita-mix blender is one of the best blender that you could get your hands into but each comes with a farily high tag price which usually ranges from $300-$500.
If you have the budget and you're looking to purchase a multi-function kitchen appliance that can withstand time considering the daily wear and tear of using it in your kitchen, a Vitamix blender is a must buy. The price tag can cost a bit upfront but it could easily justify itself with performance (considering that it can do about 50 plus functions) and durability.
The long warranty period is a high plus since most blenders only has about a year or two warranty periods.
