    Vitamix Explorian Blender, Professional-Grade, 64 oz. Container, Black (Certified Refurbished)

    • The wider low-profile jar may be easier to fit on your counter, while the narrower jars may be easier to use with smaller batches
    • low profile blend container, which allows the blender to fit under most standard countertops (the biggest upgrade from my old unit), but is also backwards and forwards compatible with all other Vitamix blending jars, with the exception of the specialized Ascent smart jars
    • Despite being made of plastic, the jar seems extremely durable.
    • Similarly, Blendtec recommends its "dishwasher safe" jars be hand washed to extend their life
    • It's great for blending some soups, but there are quieter ways to finish heating.)CleaningThe instructions say you can clean the jar in the dishwasher, though they say at the website (not about this jar specifically) it can damage jar components
    • It looks and works as if it is brand new and at a fraction of what a new one would cost
