Ladies (and Gents),

Do any of you own and use a VitaMix blender? If so, do you like it? What do you find useful about it? What things do you typically make with it?

Also, if you bought it in HK, where did you buy it and how much did you pay for it?

I've been quite interested in getting one for some time and would just like the comments of anyone who has tried it.

Thanks!
