This is a Costco E320 certified refurbished.
How does it compare to the 7500? It has the same motor and power but the 2 lb lighter base does not deaden sound as well.
For reference the 7500 has been posted here direct from Vitamix for $290 -$300 new not refurbished.
Which motor does this have? It has the 2.2 hp motor, their most powerful except for their most expensive commercial machine.
Which containers does it use? It comes with the 64 oz low container with the black handle identical to the one provided with the 7500 and it has the same 4" blades. The E320 is compatible with virtually all modern containers including those for Ascent even though the site implies otherwise. It does not adjust speed or time automatically or read the container size like Ascent. All newer Vitamix containers are dishwasher safe .
Warranty: This refurb comes with a 3 year warranty which includes shipping both ways and a 14 day turn around with an option to pay a deposit for a loaner to be shipped out in advance of return. For up to 30 days after delivery you may pay a discounted price of $75 to extend the warranty out to 6 years. After this 30 days and until the warranty expires it may be extended for the regular price which is currently $120 but is subject to increase. If you want an extended warranty then either a new 7500 or a new Costco is a better deal as these come with a 7 year warranty.
This research was time intensive. If you find it helpful then consider clicking on my screen name above instead of just thumbing up this reply.
EDIT: The deal blender is confirmed to be a Costco E320 refurb. It has the same motor power and container as the 7500 but the base has a lighter frame and is less well insulated against noise.
You will not find a powerful Vitamix for less. Warranty will be the deciding factor or most. The Ascent series certified reconditioned as an upgrade to E320 makes more sense to some. Ascent next gen series has the longest warranty new, 10 years, 5 years refurbished, but is not currently on promo.
