I got mine from their website. I got a refurbished one, that comes with the same warranty as a new one, but for less money.
We don't have a Costco in Oklahoma. I'll definitely use the shipping code if I buy from Vita-Mix...thanks! You mentioned your clients...what type of business do you have?
Are you happy with the refurbished?
I am extremely pleased. It was packaged just like a brand new one, and if I hadn't ordered it myself, I never would have known it was refurbished. I would go that route again in a heart beat!
The refurbished are $379.00 plus tax - I called my order in and got free shipping, no code needed. But I did see on the website that you can enter a code for free shipping as well on the refurbished 5200.
Thanks...good to know!
I haven't heard of an Exercise Physiologist before...sounds fascinating! Just recently I read about square foot gardening when I was researching raised garden beds on the Internet. A recent move will now allow me to have a veggie garden again and I'm looking forward to it! Have you had experience with square foot gardening and if so, any pointers? I live in Oklahoma..do you live in a similar gardening climate?
I'm excited about getting a Vita-Mix soon! Can't believe the state of health I've let myself get into during the last 5 years.
Thanks for the information!
Did you buy it from the Vita-Mix website?
We bought ours refurbished two and a half years ago. We use it several times aday and have had no problems whatsoever. I don't know how I would be able to be raw without it.
I bought a refurbished one year ago. The pitcher leaked so I returned it (twice!). They were very nice and quickly replaced it and paid for all postage and handling on both returns. I suggest that when you receive your model after you unpack the blender, fill the pitcher with water. If it doesn't leak from the bottom you'll be fine.
I've been waiting for my little osterizer to die so that I "had to" buy a Vitamix.
She finally did and just in time for me to spend my Christmas money. I went with a refurbished 5000 as it was the cheepest I found for $299 and free shipping from a link on this site: http://gotgreensrevolution.com/vitamix.html
I would have loved to get the 5200 but I just couldn't do the $80 difference. I've been using mine for a little over a week and am sooooooooooo satisfied. Though I think I'll call to get a BPA free container. Thanks for the tip.
