The Blendtec vs. Vitamix discussion humors me.
Yes, are the two main commercial mixer for use at home. Yes, they are more expensive than most other mixers of similar production. And yes, they were at the top of their games for a long time.
The truth is that this mixer could not be distinguished from one another.
You can not just flip a coin or throwing a dart at the target and walk away with one of these brands and Life Is Peachy. Let me brieflyOn the paths of these marks are different. You want to remember this information before buying a Blendtec or Vitamix.
Size
The Vitamix intrinsically much larger than the typical Blendtec blender. What happens if your kitchen cabinets to hang low? It will not be able to fit under the Vitamix Blender and save on your kitchen table. Of course this would not be a problem if you put in, but most people leave their blenders as an aesthetic piece.The mixer Blentec fit much more than the Vitamix blender, because they are shorter.
Guarantee
Vitamix has seven years on some of there warranties. Blendtec even close to this. If you have two comparable Blendtec Vitamix mixer and weigh next to each other, were the Vitamix blender will weigh more than ever. Not only are constructed with heavier materials, which carry with them a great warranty. This is a great peace when you are either very rough with your nDevice degradation or death of a mixer expensive to you without fear of retaliation.
Marketing
Blendtec takes the cake. Will It Blend series whose video was made, and appeals to a younger audience. I mean things like an iPhone is a paste mixture of these dead generations. Vitamix have been there since 1920, and it seems that their marketing pizazz delays in the department. According to the report you believe, was Blendtec (formerly K-Tec) in foundationeither 1975 or 1987. Blendtec Blendtec vs. Vitamix marketing wins the battle, hands down.
Technology
Vitamix blenders are easier to use than Blendtec blender. This does not mean Blenec are difficult to use Blender, Vitamix simply means it is easier to use. Two power switches with a speed / timer dial is all you need to learn with Vitamix. Blendec machines have LCD display and pre-programmed to scare you, if you could not do technology.
