Features
Designed to process medium batches with a lightweight design that fits easily under most kitchen cabinets.
Tidy Blends
Every angle of the Vitamix container is designed to create our uniquely controlled vortex, systematically folding ingredients back to the blades for faster, smoother blends.
Letting Off Steam
The vented lid and lid plug let you bring dishes to hot serving temperatures right in the container, or add ingredients while blending to adjust texture.
Medium Batches
The size and shape of the 48-ounce/1.4-litre container is ideal for blending medium batches for small family meals.
Leak Prevention
Our containers are designed to prevent leaks from entering the motor base, which is the number one cause of failure in lower-quality blenders.
Compatibility
This container can be used with all full-size Classic C- or G-Series Vitamix® blenders. View all Classic blenders.

Just the right size!
I received an email about a $50 off special on the 48 oz. container and after reading many great reviews about it, I decided to buy it. I'm so glad I did! I was using the larger one before but got lazy because I would get tired of cleaning it when I made smoothie just for me. With this size, I can make a 1-2 serving smoothie and because it's smaller and shorter, cleaning and storing it is a breeze. It fits under the cabinet on the counter ready to use. Also, I'm only 5 feet tall so it's easier to use. Now I use my Vitamix everyday.

Convenient Size
I have owned my Vitamix for about 5 years. I love it. One day my old container made a horrible noise and started smoking!!! It was dead! Had to get a new one and decided on the short/squatty one so I could sit it on the counter, under the upper cabinets- great fit. The first time I used it I was surprised how much quieter it was than the old one- I think the bearings had slowly been going bad and had gradually become more and more noisy. I sure am happy with the new container. The only drawback I see is that the handle is hollow which I think will make keeping it clean a bit more difficult. Too bad these cost so much money.

Interior scratches and gets cloudy
We have had our Vitamix for 2 years and we love it. The only problem is the interior or the plastic container scratches and gets cloudy making it visibly unattractive. Only dish detergent is used to clean it. We only use vegetables in the blender and avoid seeds and acidic substances such as lemons. I'm not sure why this interior deterioration occurs. If you could make a glass or Pyrex container that would be wonderful. But the plastic just doesn't compare with the quality of the machine.

48oz container
We have enjoyed our Vitamix for many years. Each morning I prepare breakfast for my wife and myself in our 64oz container and we love it. However, for smaller mixings we thought that it would be good to have a smaller container. We felt that the 48oz would do the job so we ordered it. Unfortunately, we found it to be unbalanced and clumsy to handle. We therefore returned it in exchange for the 32oz container which is perfect. I believe that the sole purpose of the 48oz is to fit under the cupboards of most counter tops which I find unnecessary as you can easily leave the base unit on the counter and store the container(s) in a cupboard. This review of 1 star is for the 48oz container only. Overall our Vitamix is a great product and deserves a 5 star rating.

LOVE this blender.
We've (2 of us) had this for a few years now, and we use it almost daily, mostly for smoothies, but sometimes for sauces and soups. I'm about to try and grind coffee with it as I cannot find my grinder and bot whole beans. Expensive yes, but all those green smoothies have been so healthy and delicious. Sometimes that is all I'll eat for lunch/breakfast: quick, delicious, healthy. Can't beat that! You deserve it too! Nice size for two people.

Perfect fit into a new space
I recently moved and found that my VitaMix no longer could sit on my counter for easy access. The 64 oz container had to rest beside the machine and space is at a premium so this was not an option. I measured and discovered that I only had an 18" clearance! The 48 oz container was a perfect solution. This would make it available for my daily smoothies and BulletProof coffee!
The container came with a lid that can be vented as well as the tamper. It is made of BPA free material which self-cleans easily with soap and water on high for 20 seconds. The handle is hollow making it lighter than my original larger container.
Great for smaller batches and a space saver for me.
I contacted customer service with several inquiries concerning this purchase and I received prompt informative replies. (I had wanted the smaller individual containers which are not manufactured for my model).
I am happy with my Vitamix and the smaller container made my new living situation easier to maintain my daily routines.

Do you know about this???
I was visiting a friend and was surprised to see she had this smaller size container. As I live alone and mostly only make things for myself it is much more efficient for me to use this smaller size and also easier to store. I love it!

Perfect size!
I bought this a month ago so my blender would fit under the upper cabinets.
but it also seemed like the right size. And it is perfect on both accounts.
One minor dislike (hence the 4 rating) is the handle which is open on both ends which means it gets wet and you can't dry it inside so water spots inevitably appear. I hand wash and dry my containers to keep them pristine looking as they sit in view on the counter. I'm worried the inside of the handle where I can't reach will get cloudy looking. - Not so far though
