Free Blender - Not Vitamix?
Posted by: nik ()

I've only heard about the Vitamix blender recommended from everyone I know, but I haven't been able to buy one. Does anyone have the new Blendtec blender? How is it compared to the vitamix? Is it worth buying over the vitamix if I don't win this?

I'm trying to win a free one at [gliving.tv] but I only have 1 day to get someone to sign up so I get entered in the drawing. I already wrote my family but I don't think any of them have, they don't care about this stuff. If you sign up please say you were referred by Nik! I really need this blender! I'm so sick of plain salads, smoothies and fruits and am getting pretty bored of my raw food selection.

Nik,

I have the KTec Total Blender by Blendtec. It's cheaper, quieter, and has a lower profile (shorter) than the Vitamix). I recommend it. However, if it wasn't for green smoothies, I'm not sure why I would need it. My regular blender (KitchenAid) was fine for fruit smoothies, soups and dressings. What will you use it for?

I have the K-Tec, too, and prefer it to the Vitamix. I use it for soups, dressings, smoothies, and nut milks (aahhhh!). With the Vitamix, you need to tamp down the food to the blades; the K-tec is so well designed that the food is sucked into the blades and you never have to tamp it down. I love mine.

I have also used both of them. I actually prefer the vitamix. The ktec has fancier digital controls. I guess I just prefer the manual controls of the vitamix. I do have the Ktec for sale if interested. It is practically new. I have some pics on my blogger site (see below). Feel free to post here or on the blogger site.

It's heavy; so I don't know how much shipping is. I am here in Tennessee.
