New Vitamix 4500 Blender, Free Ship to lower 48 US states

The new Vitamix TurboBlend 4500 is improved with five product changes over the previous model:

1. New BPA-free Carafe made of Eastman Tritan material. There has been a great deal of bad press out there on BPA and polycarbonate containers. Vitamix moved to make this carafe change proactively around all of the negative news on BPA lately.
2. New lid-locking mechanism allows for anyone to take off the lid easier than before. The old 4500 lid was difficult to remove once pressed hard into the carafe.
3. New Healthy recipe book. The recipe book has been dressed up and cleaned up to focus on healthier options.
4. New cooler running, more efficient 2 Peak HP motor. Same specs, just runs cooler - especially important when running for extended periods for making soup.
5. New "fade" faceplate graphics.

The Vitamix 4500 is a commercial-quality blender with power that's far beyond ordinary blenders. Its extremely powerful 11.5 amp motor develops to peak horsepower to keep the blades spinning at high speed even under heavy loads. This combination of speed and power gives you the smoothest possible textures, in just seconds. Where lesser blenders leave unblended chunks, seeds and strings, the Vitamix TurboBlend produces silky smooth results, in less time. You'll prepare smooth-textured foods with consistent quality — and do it faster! And because the TurboBlend's blade power literally explodes individual plant cells, more flavor and nutrition are released for healthier, tastier foods. The Vitamix 4500 Turboblend includes a smoothie stick which, when inserted, accelerates carafe contents for even faster results. Carafe is made of Tritan copolyester.
