What do you use? Why? Where did you buy it?
Thanks. |

| Without a doubt a Vitamix. Got mine at Costco, but you can order directly from Vitamix if you prefer. It will pulverize a concrete block, just kidding, but it is the ultimate smoothie maker and a lot more. |

I am a vitamix gal too, I have the old metal one (you can still buy from eBay or Amazon) and the newer plastic one. They really will pulverize just about anything and last for ages.  |

On the other hand, I have a cheap, basic Black and Decker blender that cost me ~$40 CAD. The one I have is 2-3 years old, with a glass container/pitcher and I've used it regularly for my fruit smoothies.
I only started with Green smoothies about 10 days ago, and so far it has worked great. I have no idea if green smoothies will shorten its life span (like kill the motor or something), but for now - my $40 blender is working really well.
ETA: Just checked my blender and the type is - Black & Decker Crush Master |

The blenders that I know are good and have tried are Blentec, Vitamix, L equip 228. I also have been interested in seeing how the new healthmaster rates. The healthmaster is sold a couple of places and QVC is one of them.

I have and love Vitamix, had been used almost daily for the past 6+ years.
My mom has Blendtec and is also very happy with it.
