Vitamix tall 64-oz container: When I purchased my Vitamix 5300 it came with the short 64-oz container. After a while, I learned that a narrower container might best suit my needs, and I found a great deal on a 32-oz container. It showed me that the narrower container would, indeed, be a better choice. For a while, I looked on eBay and Amazon for deals on the tall 64-oz container, but could not find what I wanted. Most offered were second-party or unknown brand containers, which I didn't want. The few used Vitamix containers that I found were more beat up than was acceptable. And I didn't want to pay full retail for a container that I didn't actually need ...
Last week I received an email from Vitamix saying that the tall 64-oz container was on sale for Labor Day, and the price was such that I could get a new one and end up saving about $80.00. CLICK!
and today the new container arrived ... just in time for the start of soup season.
