Vitamix 5200

[iiijohnnymaciii]

I’ve had one of these on my wish list for a long time. Then today I go on Facebook marketplace and this pops up for $20. It doesn’t have any of the extras the CIA version comes with, but I definitely wasn’t complaining. Luckily it had just been posted for 4 minutes. Everything works great! I still can’t believe it!

That's a good deal

 

<span style="font-family: georgia, palatino;">You may have already been here, but this is a good resource for recipes.  That machine does a lot including make hot soup.  Mine is about 10 years old and we still use it every single day to make smoothies and I use it for other things too.  </span>

Awesome find AND price!

WOW CONGRATS!

I’m a bit jealous too. I have a 5200 also, but black, not red and I bought it new, so paid “slightly” more than you did (HA).

It’s a wonderful blender and I use mine a fair amount. My favorite thing to make is strawberry “ice cream” as they call it, especially for friends, it’s so good and SO fast, less than a minute!

I did make a “hot soup” once, but never again. WAY TO MUCH NOISE and honestly I can heat up soup in about half the time on the stove.

What a super find.. love it when those happen. Still thrilled with my like new $20 Zojirushi bread maker.

Can’t argue with the price! I’ve been tempted to get one a few times, as the Vitamix line is in a league of its own, but then I realize that my Breville gets used only once every few months, so cooler heads prevail, LOL.

Have fun with it!

Know the feeling of OMG it's in the thrift shop. They sell blenders for $10. The Vitamix looks like a typical blender so it was $10.00. Part of the getting stuff for my house after the fire. Still not back in my house after 18 months. But it only a few weeks from completion. End result is an 1860 exterior with a 2020 interior. I will post pictures. I went with a lot of grays so my neighbor is calling it the 50 shades of gray house. Got a Cuisinart soup maker for $15.
