You can blend hot foods. Like boiling carrots, you boil them and dump them in the blender. Overtime this will destroy your plastic containers. Stainless steel can take the heat. It's also more durable in the sense that it won't break as easily. The downside is that if you leave it in water for too long it can rust. However that only happens if you have it soaked for days.

These are discounts. Costco doesn't always carry these accessories, either.

Mexican here, I blend a lot of dry peppers (i.e. guajillo, arbol, etc) and they tend to stain the plastic container. My husband bought me the stainless steel and hands down it is the best!

Curious, why do people like stainless steel instead of see through?

It handles extreme temperatures better, so smoothies stay colder, and soups can get hotter. Also certain ingredients will stain the plastic (looking at you turmeric) but not stainless steel.

No, but I checked out the reviews on Amazon and they aren't good.

In addition to what other people have said, it's dishwasher safe

The stainless is $15 less than Amazon. I just don't view this as anything special as far as price. 10% just doesn't do it for me.

Well, $15 less is still $15 cheaper. Since I have an impression that Vitamix stainless steel container doesn't get on sale often, I think this is a good price.
