Vitamix Legacy Series 48oz Container: Copolyester Blender Accessory, Hand Wash, Clear, 9.8" Height, 2.10 lbs

My daily go to morning smoothie making container. Work's great on my 34 year old Vitamix TNC Blender.

I have a 19 year old Vitamix 5000 base- that is STILL GOING STRONG! YAY VITAMIX!! However, my original container got cloudy and I decided to upgrade- and went with the 48 oz container about a year ago. The blending is fine, but this container is a mess to use. The pour spout is wide and flat and no matter how carefully I try to pour out my shakes - this thing manges to drip, drip, drip. The other issue is the lid. It's cumbersome to take off and put back on....which also makes a mess. Maybe the smaller container is part of the problem - not sure- but if the lid is not no perfectly on and locked down- stuff is flying out the spout and sides. I never had these issues with original container. The old container and old lid were the bomb! Just wonderful. The new style - just aweful. I really wish I had just bought the original style container as a replacement. Lesson learned!! I want to end this review by stating that I love my Vitamix and use it almost every day - much more than any other item in my kitchen- so I highly recommend the Blenders. I just don't like this particular style of container.

The 48 oz. container is far superior when it comes to making small batches. This is because the tapered, narrower base makes it easy for this container to create a vortex with less ingredients than is necessary with the 64 oz low profile containers. In addition, the 48 oz container is large enough for all but the largest of recipes. I really wish all Vitamix blenders came with the ability to choose which size container that you prefer. My dream combo would be an A3300 blender with the tall thin classic 64 oz. container that comes with the 5200. I realize that the Classic 64 oz. container does not work with Ascent blenders; I just wish that it did.

I have three sizes of containers for my Vitamin, and this is the one I use most often. It is easier to clean than the 64-ounce Container and takes up less space. The 32-ounce container is really easy to store, but it is too small for many of my recipes. The 48-ounce container is the perfect size.

I have the tall 64oz container and wanted something a little smaller. This does the trick. Came with the smaller tamper and works great! Love my Vitamix!!

I love how versatile this smaller blender container is for storing and using! I never feel like I have to make a smoothie that is over 5 cups when I just want to make the blender blend. Its going strong and I see many years of use to come!

I just recently purchased a new Pro Series 750. Immediately I realized the included 2L container would provide much more capacity than needed so I purchased the .9 and 1.4L containers. The .9L container fits rather nicely on the base (inside the fingers) with just a little play as compared to the 2L. It has a quality feel to it, thick plastic, stable handle, fairly confident seal on the lid. The 48oz however has a lot of play and spins roughly 1/4" on the base when power is applied. Also, the plastic handle is thinner so it has a little play to it as well. It is designed to fit over top of the fingers on the base much like the 2L however the plastic base of the container is more a rounded square and overshoots the fingers on the motor base I was hoping it would seat as nicely as the 2L and have the same quality feel however it doesn't. I don't understand why the 1.4L container doesn't use the same rounded corner concave square base as the 2L. For the price of the container I expect a better design.

I use my vitamix everyday but very disappointed with the plastic container. After a year or so it becomes stained and cloudy and looks just terrible. Honestly I'm ashamed to let it on my counter for others to see. Too bad it has a plastic blender jar that doesn't stay clear. And it's very expensive to replace. Also start/stop switch is broken already.

The 48oz container is an ideal size for fitting under cabinets while sitting on a Legacy-series Vitamix, and it is still large enough to make very-large smoothies for two people. In addition, the container is large enough for most recipes.

Finally had to replace my blender jar after 10 years. I can still utilize the older one but it has gotten very cloudy where I couldnt see the markings. Worth every penny to replace just the jar after all this time.

Original one broke, so I had to get another one. it works well just unfortunate that I had to purchase a second one.

I got this for my wife who is a Vitamix fan. I will never use it for the reasons which follow. This carafe is a well made replacement for existing Vitamix blenders. But, it is not dishwasher safe, the plastic will cloud up over time and it cannot be disassembled for convenient cleaning. Vitamix devotees know this, but I don’t like the blend-to-clean, then rinse and air dry methods Vitamix recommends, so I don’t use it. I do not understand why Vitamix continues to use this crummy plastic or why they won’t make a dishwasher safe carafe.

Sturdy. I bought a second container so that I could make protein shakes up ahead of a time but keep them in the blender container so I could stir them up before drinking them. People they are made out of durable plastic so that they aren't too heavy and so they don't break if you clank them in the sink accidentally.

I bought my Vitamix over a dozen years ago and just now I’m replacing the container I love it love it love it it is so great to have a great juicer

I love the smaller size. It’s great for my morning smoothie.

This container is awesome! It doesn't seem to stain like to original.

It's the perfect size for everyday use. I use this blade to blend my coffee with MCT oil and butter. It does the job effectively and cleans up well with another run of hi-speed with soap and hot water.

Love this container! It is so sleek and much nicer to handle with the low height!

just barely couldnt fit under cabinet. had to return and order a 32oz. annoying because i measured it and it would have not been a problem at all if the measurements online were accurate. however though, the quality of the containers in general are the best in the business.

I had mixed review based on other reviews and I'm happy with it. It is a lot easier to clean the bottom -inside because not as narrow.
