    I don't have one (yet) but I love the icecream/sorbet they make using apple juice, ice, spinach snd a banana. . I also love the tortilla soup they make (that recipe is in the book it comes with).

    I don't have one of these, but I have used a recipe called, "Magic Bean Cake" that is made in a Thermomix (not sure how different that is, but I used my KitchenAid mixer). It's a chocolate cake made with beans - I think kidney beans, but I used black beans and had fine results, DS and DH did not know there was something healthy in it until I told them!

    Check out Blenderbabes.com for loads of recipes. They usually tell you what to do if you have a Vitamix or Blendtec...(I have a Blendtec!!)

    I got a Bledec for Christmas from dh. I had looked at both and they are comparable in every way except the Blendtec fits under my counter and the Vitamix doesn't That was the only reason I choose Blendtec

    I absolutely love it. The recipe for Popeye ice cream is amazing and our grandchildren love it. Who knew eating spinach could taste so good

    Thanks for all the replies!

    We've had it for 2 months now and I use it every single day! I love it. I make smoothies every morning, I'm chopped cheese & veggies and maybe ice cream. I've made big batches of dressings in it. This is the first weekend we don't have something on so I'm going to have a go at making soup in it.

    Holly, we got on that has a shorter container so it fits under the cupboards quite nicely, thankfully, because we don't have a lot of counter space.

    Well worth the cost for us so far.
