    Vitamix Reconditioned Month

    Published: Nov 5, 2013 · Modified: Jan 26, 2015 by Mike Vrobel · This post may contain affiliate links · 4 Comments

    My reconditioned Vitamix 5200

    Vitamix has announced a sale on reconditioned blenders! Now through December 2nd, you can get up to 30% $30 off any reconditioned blender you buy on their website:
    Vitamix Certified Reconditioned Blenders

    The blender I own, the "standard" model (a Vitamix 5200) is on sale for $299, (down from the $329 price I paid for a refurbished model, and $449 for a brand new one):
    Vitamix Certified Reconditioned - Standard

    If you want to buy their newer, quieter, and more powerful model (the Pro 300 series), it's on sale for $439:
    Vitamix Certified Reconditioned - Next Generation

    They have some other models on sale as well, but I'd recommend one of the two models above. Their cheapest least expensive blender only has two speeds; I prefer the variable speed knob, so I can slowly turn the speed up to 10. The other models come with programmable settings; I just crank the blender up instead of needing a dedicated "smoothie" button.

    Why buy a Vitamix?

    Read all about it (and my visit to their outlet store) in Road Trip: Vitamix Factory Outlet Store
    (And, if you live in Northeastern Ohio, you can visit the outlet store and get these same sale prices.)

      I have been contemplating buying a Vitamix. My food processor broke last week and I'm on my second "magic bullet" type device. Maybe I just need to break down and buy one of these!

      Crap. You're right. Fixed it in the post, and thank you for pointing that out.

      Hey, Mike. Are you sure it's 30% off Certified Reconditioned Blenders? I thought it was up to $30 off.
