Aahhh… the Vita Mix is one of those appliances that you’ll wonder how you ever did without! Built with a 2+ horsepower motor and running at speeds up to 218 MPH, this awesome piece of culinary machinery is commercial grade and is favored in restaurants and all types of bars around the country. Quick, easy and highly versatile, the Vita Mix will turn fresh whole foods into soup, smoothie, sauce, pâté, sorbet, baby food, or even puree smooth fibrous greens, giving you excellent nutrition along with the fiber. Ideal for grinding grains, nuts, seeds, or making your own sprouted living breads and crackers, the Vita Mix is the ultimate kitchen tool and the quintessential companion to the Excalibur dehydrator. Unlike regular blenders, the Vita Mix incorporates a metal to metal driver contact and comes with a tight sealing lid fitted for use of its plug or plunger. Vita Mix backs up their unsurpassed quality with a 5 year manufacturer warranty, and each unit includes an extensive owners manual and an informative, colorful book containing over 200 recipes.
