Use it a couple of times a day
To keep a long story short our two year old son had to have a procedure done to the bottom of his stomach. It was constricted and he could only eat liquid foods. This puts a parent is a mode to find anything to help his kid. We started researching green smoothies which lead us to what product would give us the best results. It came down to Vitamix and Blendtech. We went with the product that gave the 7 year warranty. Now as we fast forward a couple of years our son has recovered from his procedure and can now it solid food. The funny thing is he still prefers his green smoothie to much of anything else. We load it up with Kale, frozen fruit, banana, nuts and coconut oil. This kid has to be one of the healthiest around. We now have two sons and have started the youngest on this drink. He now asks for it as well. Praise God.
As the title says we use this a couple of times a day for about 4 years now and started wearing out the drive component and the variable speed adjustment. We called Vitamix and had a wonderful experience. They gave us an Return Authorization, we sent it to them and had it back within a week. This thing works like it is brand new. On a side note we had to borrow my mothers because it is so ingrained in our everyday nutrition. This is a wonderful product with a company that stands behind it. This combination is quite unique now a days. Two thumbs up.
