Does anyone have or know anything about a Vitamix?
It's the featured product today on the Ideal World shopping channel, and the presentation does look impressive.
Things such as making peanut butter from peanuts and making hot soup from cold water and raw veg.
There's no heating element, but everything whizzes round so fast the contents heat up.
Ice cream from frozen strawberries is another process, and the machine is so strong it will liquidize a chicken carcass, including the bones.
Some of the demos are a bit gimmicky, but I believe they are true, although I'm not sure ultimately how useful.
As with any kitchen gadget, there's always a risk it will end up in the back of a cupboard, and four hundred quid is a lot to risk.

Loadsa people on my Yahoo! health group own a Vitamix, especially in the USA,
they reckon they're worth every Pfennig.

That is a lot of money for a blender if it works fine.We have a Tefal actifry over hundred pounds.Vey nice chips put a spoon of olive oil in seal the lid and off it goes.
At the time when the missus got it I thought a waste of money but after two years still in regular use.
