Vitamix 1.4 L Stainless Steel Container — How do I clean the container?

Rinse with lukewarm water immediately after use. For thick or oily preparations: fill halfway with warm water and a drop of washing-up liquid, blend for 30–60 seconds on high speed (or use the blender's Self-Clean program), empty, and rinse. The container and Tritan lid are dishwasher-safe — hand-washing is gentler on the surface and the better choice.

Vitamix 1.4 L Stainless Steel Container — Which blenders is the container compatible with?

The stainless steel container fits all Vitamix blenders with the Classic Mount system — including the Explorian series (E310, E320, E510, E520) and the Pro 750 — as well as the upcoming Ascent X. On the Ascent X, SELF-DETECT recognises the container and adjusts the programs to the container size. Not compatible with the current Ascent series (A2500i/A3500i), as these use an interlock system.

Vitamix 1.4 L Stainless Steel Container — Does the outside of the container get hot?

Yes — stainless steel conducts temperature, unlike plastic. With hot preparations the outer wall can become hot; with frozen ingredients it can become very cold. Hold the container by the handle and use an oven mitt or silicone pad when emptying it if needed. For hot ingredients (from approx. 38 °C), fill no more than around 0.5 litres, start on a low speed, and never fill the container to the brim.

Vitamix 1.4 L Stainless Steel Container — Can I grind dry herbs and spices in it?

The stainless steel container is not designed for dry-grinding herbs and spices: it can leave fine scratches and discolouration and cause premature blade wear — such cosmetic marks and the resulting wear are excluded from the manufacturer's warranty. For wet preparations such as smoothies, hot soups, dips, and frozen desserts, it is fully suitable.

Vitamix X Container 1.4 L Stainless Steel

299,00 €

Taxes included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

The 1.4-litre stainless steel container for your Vitamix — for small to medium quantities like smoothies, hot soups, dips, and frozen desserts.

Stainless steel is non-reactive: it doesn't take on odours or colour, is unaffected by hot, cold, or acidic ingredients, and is easy to clean. The clear lid made of BPA-free Tritan lets you watch the blending process, and the included low-profile tamper works thick or frozen mixtures back down. Blending is done with laser-cut stainless steel blades.

Your benefits

Stainless steel: resistant to odours and stains, non-reactive to acidic ingredients.
Wide fit: for the Ascent X series (X2, X5) and for all Classic mount blenders — Explorian series (E310, E320, E510, E520), Pro 750, as well as Vitamix legacy C- and G-series machines.
SELF-DETECT: on the Ascent X series, the container is recognised, and the program settings adjust to the container size.
Easy cleaning: container and Tritan lid are dishwasher-safe.

Good to know

Rinse the container out with lukewarm water right after use. For thick or oily preparations, fill it halfway with warm water and a drop of dish soap, blend for 30–60 seconds on a high speed, empty it out, and rinse. Of the machines this container fits, only the Pro 750 and the Ascent X series have a Self-Cleaning program that ramps up for you. On every Explorian model you turn the dial from 1 to 10 by hand, and the result is the same. Hand-washing is gentler on the surface and is the better choice.

Stainless steel conducts temperature: with hot preparations, the outer wall can get hot, and with frozen ones, very cold — hold the container by the handle and use an oven mitt when emptying it if needed. For hot ingredients (from approx. 38 °C), fill in no more than about 0.5 litres, start on a low speed, and never fill the container to the rim. It's not designed for dry grinding herbs and spices: that can cause fine scratches, discoloration, and premature blade wear — such marks are excluded from the manufacturer's warranty. It's fully suited to wet preparations. The reverse doesn't apply: a Classic container may sit on an X2 or X5, but the X base detects its container electronically — without that signal, the machine won't start.

Containers purchased separately carry a 3-year manufacturer's warranty for household use; your statutory rights remain unaffected (warranty terms).
