Guest guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 It's TriStar Products, part of the same TriStar conglomerate that owns TriStar Pictures. From my initial investigations, I can definitely tell you that theirs falls short in terms of warranty (60 days vs. 7 years) and customer support/product knowledge. (Yes, I actually called a couple of their phone numbers. After all, if we really can replace the Vita-Mix with something more economical, then why not!) Personally, I'm happy to pay more for these things, and I realize that others may feel differently.

I chose the vitamix because they last for a very long time. Quite a few recommended the vitamix to me because they've had theirs for years without having to replace anything. If you can find one that does the same thing that's cheaper, that's great. Hopefully it's from a company that's been around quite a while.
