I have been wanting this blender for so long since a friend has one that I have used. But I was unwilling to pay $800 for it. So I am thrilled to get it for $429. Just the stainless steel container is $200 on its own (and sometimes $160 at Costco). So this is a thrill to get the stainless steel and the blender for such an amazing price.

If your interested just keep an eye on it. It goes in and out of stock. I missed it a couple of days ago but I managed to get one a few hours ago. You can keep the store page pulled up on your browser and just refresh it every now and then.

Thanks for the tip! I got one. What a terrible website experience with so many broken elements including the Apple Pay button.

I got this during the Black Friday event on Amazon for $350 (+ tax) but with the plastic container. The blender is awesome, however I have already started seeing small chips & scratches on the container. Do you think it's a good idea to get this one and return the Amazon one?

Their web page really sucks. Constantly times out and hanging. Took a while for the order to go through.

This container is nice, but smaller. Too small for good smoothies I make with sufficient ice and lots of veggies.

The extra strong regular Tritan containers are just fine, it's what I use and zero problems with them with regard to durability.

48ounce is not small for smoothies, I make 1 jar full with propel & is good enough for family of 4 with 2 kids in 1 batch. & just 30 sec I guess it takes to make it . So 48 ounce is perfect sweet spot unless someone have business/bulk usecase

Then you guys are drinking a small amount each.

I make a meal out of my smoothie as many people do.

Also having a little bit of headroom at the top makes making the smoothie easier regardless, because then you don't have to worry about smashing food down as much to keep it under the rim (before you blend it), etc.

They absolutely should make a 64 oz version of this stainless steel container as well... then we're talkin!

A 64 oz container can do what you want and what I want, it's the most versatile size and can take care of the needs of the vast majority of home use cases; yes some want an even bigger container but 64 oz is perfect for me and so many others.

edit: Oh and obviously being able to see through the container is helpful too. Not critical but nice.

If you value the stainless steel container and the preset functions. Otherwise, the blenders are identical.
