Mizach, I"m glad the Vitamix is working well. By the time I have to replace what I have now, Vitamix will probably come out with several other models.
Sultana-I bought mine from QVC last summer with the easy pay. I wish they'd had the twister jar with it like they do now. I saved up Amazon points for the Twister jar, which I really like. My son loves the soft serve "ice cream" I've made using only strawberries and bananas. I'm glad to find a way to get him to eat fruit! I can't wait for the new jar to arrive so I can make it for him again. Sherry

I'm sure QVC must get a big cut because they sell a TON of Blendtec machines and have them on as TSV several times a year-good point!

I've had my Blendtec for 7 years with zero problems. However, I have heard about the black liquid from people on other sites. I wonder whether they make a different model for QVC? I bought mine directly from Blendtec. I replaced the blender jar a few years ago because I wanted one with greater volume, and now there is an even bigger Blendtec jar that I might end up getting.
Sorry you're having problems. High speed blenders are fabulous appliances. I hope you can find one you like, whether Blendtec or Vitamix.

Betsy-I really wonder now if there is a difference between the models sold directly from Blendtec compared to the ones sold through QVC and Amazon. I am really glad yours has not given you any problems for seven years. That is wonderful! I do really like the blender otherwise, especially for increasing my fruit/vegetable intake.
I have the Wildside jar, which works really well for soup recipes. Sherry
