Maybe you’re looking to upgrade your blender. A better blend quality for your smoothies, purees and nut butters.

Many of us are.

Most of us, though, just want to upgrade our lives.

And we’re in good company.

4.3 million Vitamix owners have done just that.
And 97% will tell you it’s the single best blender to help them achieve their goals.

But despite the incredible value you get from the versatility and durability of a Vitamix, they’re a serious investment.

Why?

These Vitamix machines are in thousands of professional chef’s kitchens. As such, they are engineered to commercial grade.

Commercial grade machines come with a commercial grade price.

And so while thinking about getting a new Vitamix is fun, it can also bring feelings of:

• Guilt — should I be spending my money elsewhere?
• Fear — can I afford this?
• Worry — is this the best price for a Vitamix?

So how do we get the Vitamix we’ve always wanted for less?

Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders are the Answer

Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders perform like new. They can make:

• The silkiest smoothies.
• The creamiest nut butters.
• The hottest soups.
• The richest purees.

Plus batters, ice cream, and doughs.

Everything a brand new Vitamix can do, these Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders can do, too.

The blend quality is the same.

Its value isn’t the question, though.

The question is, “Are you ready?”

Close your eyes

Imagine tomorrow morning. You wake up and make the same crappy breakfast — or just go hungry!

And for dinner, you’re eating canned soup and some cookies.

Meanwhile, your old blender gathers dust.

Four weeks later, nothing has changed.

Now imagine you have a commercial quality machine that can make the smoothest, healthiest green smoothies on the planet. Breakfast!

And, that machine cleans itself (with ease).

A Vitamix!

You have two options:

1. Be in the same place four weeks from now with a blender that’s not getting you any closer to achieving your goals.
2. Have a commercial quality machine that delivers the best blend quality on the planet. One that can make you green smoothies in the morning. One that makes healthy nut butters and mouthwatering hot soups. One that can even make ice cream for dessert.

The right choice is not out of reach anymore.

Now you can have that commercial quality machine.

That Vitamix you’ve always wanted.

For less.

But do any of these sound familiar?

Hidden messages

I’m going to tell you why Certified Reconditioned Vitamix blenders are great.

But inevitably people will make excuses to themselves. Which of these sound familiar?

“I already have a blender.”

The blender you have is fine. It works for how you use it.

“I don’t have enough money.”

You’re on a tight budget and shouldn’t be buying a Vitamix right now, even though you’re getting the best price.

“I have other priorities right now.”

Your list of things you need to buy is huge. You can’t put a Vitamix at the top.

“I am going to wait until after the holidays.”

You will have extra money later. And then, you’ll be ready.

Well, here’s the deal.

All of those concerns are valid. I have tons of respect for anyone who puts family first.

And, I am the guy who generally settles for less. I won’t allow myself to have the best.

But, over the last few years, I’ve found people (including myself) using those words as hidden messages for their true feelings.

They’re actually afraid of failure. Afraid of what might happen if they’re able to achieve their goals. To live a better life.

These hidden messages can hold us back.

When it comes down to it, we know what we want. We know what will help us get there.

It’s a matter of taking a leap of faith with ourselves.

Am I ready to do this (for real)?

Am I ready for a Vitamix?

Are Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders right for me?

Well, here’s a story.

Good as New, Will Sell as New

A few years ago, Vitamix sold a large lot of Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines to a large buyer.

I cannot say the name or location of the buyer due to condition of anonymity.

But those details don’t matter. 🙂

What the buyer did, however, does matter. And it’s hilarious.

Upon receiving the lot of Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines, the buyer had their quality control team inspect the units.

The buyer’s quality control team determined they were “as good as new.”

In fact, they asked Vitamix Corporation if they could repackage them and sell as such.

They wanted to sell them as “New Vitamix Blenders” even though they were Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders.

Vitamix Corporation quickly said, “Absolutely not.”

But how funny is that?

The Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders were so “like new” that a big buyer wanted to market them as “new.”

And that’s just one example of how good these Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines are.

There are so many more.

Here’s one.

Gifting Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders

If there’s one person who’s reputation is on the line when gifting Vitamix Machines, it’s Vitamix Corporation’s Chief Operating Officer (COO), Tony Ciepiel.

Next to the CEO, he’s the guy in charge of Vitamix.

If his product doesn’t meet customer expectations, it’s on him.

Still, Mr. Ciepiel proudly gives Vitamix Blenders as gifts to family and friends. Weddings, thank-you’s — you name it.

And which Vitamix model does he give as gifts?

Yep.

He gifts Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines.

The COO of Vitamix, a guy who can surely afford to buy new ones, gifts dozens of Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders every year.

Why?

Because Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders are as good as new.

And as Mr. Ciepiel told me personally, “Nobody cares what the box says. Once people use ’em for a week, they fall in love. And, I’m a hero.”

Like Mr Ciepiel, I give Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders as gifts, too. I gave a Standard Model to my mom last Mother’s Day.

So, they’re great quality.

But are they popular?

Yes, quite.

Limited availability due to popularity

The word is out on Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders.

They’re awesome.

And the value you get above and beyond the premium quality you expect from a new Vitamix Blender is enormous.

So who’s buying them?

• Families with young children.
• Empty-nesters seeking nutritious meal options.
• Savvy buyers who know what they want and want it now (at an amazing price).

All of these people know that a Vitamix is the single blender they need. The single blender than can drive them towards a better life.

And they’re buying them at a rapid pace.

So much so that Vitamix Headquarters has a hard time keeping them in stock.

Logically, if Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders are popular, that means several people bought them, right?

This is true.

So does that mean there are a lot of dissatisfied customers? Or, are there a lot of defective units being returned?

What’s the deal?

Let me explain.

Why They’re NOT Called Refurbished Vitamix Blenders

The word “refurbished” implies defects. So let’s get one thing straight.

These blenders are not refurbished.

Sure, Vitamix Machines sometimes need service. And that service is covered (including normal wear and tear) in the warranty.

But these machines are built incredibly well. So well, that a three-man repair team is enough to service over four million households that own a Vitamix. And they also cover the thousands of commercial units around the world!

There is NOTHING defective about Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders.

So, why do some Vitamix machines need to be reconditioned?

Why are there so many?

In order of frequency, here’s why Vitamix machines need to be reconditioned.

1. “Oopsies” Orders

Vitamix buyers know they’ll have their blender for a lifetime.

But sometimes, they buy the wrong one.

Within the first 30 days, some buyers realize they want something different. Maybe they want a quieter G-Series or a unit with programs.

These buyers call to switch for the one they actually wanted. It’s usually an upgrade or a color change.

“Oopsies!”

2. “Drowsy Orders”

Vitamix blenders are sold on QVC. And, the demonstrations are very enticing.

“I want it!”

But then when it arrives, some QVC buyers realize they should not have actually placed the order.

Sometimes it’s because they’re on a fixed income and can’t afford it. Sometimes it’s because they already have one and forgot (seriously).

These “drowsy orders” are sent back to Vitamix headquarters.

The Reconditioning team can look at the air vents to see if they’ve ever been used. More often than not, they were never turned on.

Yes, not used even once.

Zero-use returns happen more often than you can imagine.

Silly “Drowsy orders”

3. System Cheaters

Vitamix sells their machines at Costco. Costco is a huge buyer, so it makes sense.

But Costco has a hassle-free return policy.

You can return anything to Costco for a full refund. Even if you’ve used it for months, they’ll take it back.

People know this about Costco and take advantage.

A great example is the Super Bowl. Vitamix sales and returns at Costco BOOM before and after the Super Bowl, respectively.

Dang “System Cheaters.”

4. Demonstrator units

Vitamix has a massive army of people doing Vitamix demonstrations at trade shows, Costco, Whole Foods, etc.

The demonstrators have two machines. One to use and one for display.

Both of those machines eventually need homes.

But before getting a new home, they get reconditioned.

As you can see, none of these are refurbished units. They’re reconditioned.

But how is it done?

How are these Vitamix Machines reconditioned?

Everything you Ought to Know About the Vitamix Certified Reconditioning Process

The Vitamix Certified Reconditioning Process is well-documented.

To summarize, it’s thorough.

All machines go through a 17-point inspection.

That begins with an inspection for appearance and functionality. Everything is checked.

Then, the motor is run three times. The blade is inspected and run through a high-temperature dishwasher.

Anything that doesn’t meet high standards gets replaced with a brand new part.

But no matter what, ALL Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines include a:

• New container.
• New lid, lid plug, and tamper.
• New cookbook package.

That’s right, people. All the stuff that matters is brand-spanking new.

The result of the reconditioning process?

Same blend quality.

Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines perform like new.

They perform to commercial standards.

Like new ones, they are equipped to process:

• The silkiest smoothies
• The creamiest nut butters.
• The richest frozen desserts.
• The hottest soups.

And of course, it can make batters, doughs, juices — literally everything a new Vitamix can make.

But what about the durability?

How do the Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blenders hold up?

Well, Vitamix stands by these machines with pride.

The Warranty and Guarantee

All Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines come with three promises.

Three iron-clad promises.

1. 5-year warranty

Each Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machine comes with a 5-year warranty.

But this isn’t just any warranty.

This warranty covers wear and tear.

This warranty is no-questions-asked.

And this warranty includes a promise from Vitamix that they will pay shipping both ways if your machine ever needs service. Yes, both ways.

That’s more than a warranty. That’s pure confidence in their product.

For an extra $75, you can add an extra three years of warranty for a total of eight years.

Either way, you’re covered for many years.

2. Best price

Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines are exclusively available through certified affiliates (like me!). They are shipped directly from Vitamix headquarters in Cleveland, Ohio.

There is no middle-man.

Certified Reconditioned is the way to get a Vitamix for less. They’re the best deal on a Vitamix, period.

3. 30-day guarantee

Vitamix only wants happy customers. If you aren’t happy, Vitamix insists on sending you a shipping label so you can return for a full refund or replacement.

No questions asked.

If it’s not perfect, they’ll make it right.

Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Blender vs. New

If it’s not clear by now, Certified Reconditioned Vitamix Machines are as good as new.

There are no noticeable differences compared to a new Vitamix.
