## Description

Vita Prep 3 Vitamix mixer - 062826 - high power mixer for high-end production. When combined with the already superior engineering developed by Vitamix, the 3-horsepower (peak) motor of the Vita-Prep 3 Commercial mixer allows any caliber restaurant to take the menu several notches. In general, more powerful engines complete tasks faster, run cooler and can run for long periods of time without having to rest. When you mix that power with the innovative design of the stainless steel wet blade and classic Vitamix container, the result is a super tool that any chef can use to create perfect sauces, purees, dressings, toppings and many other key ingredients for signature dishes that will delight customers' taste buds. It is designed to simplify every task with high or variable speed mixing. Don't forget to start the Vita-Prep 3 at low speed for heavier foods and then the high-flow crank to finish your products to perfection. The Vita-Prep 3 also includes a 54-page recipe manual that explains methods, variations and suggestions for a myriad of menus. You will learn how to easily prepare purees or chopped vegetables that cost less than manufactured products. Most importantly, the Vita-Prep 3 is easy to clean. The container rinses easily, and the base needs a little more than just a quick clean with a damp cloth at the end of the day. Superior ConstructionThe Vitamix Vita-Prep 3 is powered by a 3 HP motor that runs at 37,000 rpm, exceeds other brands 3 to 1, and provides all the muscles you need for frequent operation. The Vita-Prep 3 is equipped with a special cooling fan to prevent overheating during periods of heavy use. Around the engine is a robust ABS plastic body that resists aggression and is easy to clean. A metal-on-metal drive system connects the motor to the mixing container for better durability over plastic.

Review: It’s expensive and last about 2 yrs under very commercial use (using average 6 hrs per day, everyday). Variable speed knob is very nice in slowly breaking ice cubes to smaller pieces before high speed is used. It’s commercial grade so the blending power is excellent but that results in very high noise level. Someone standing next to you can’t hear you while it’s at high speed blending. The pitcher and lower blend unit can be cleaned very easily, but the area under the blade is difficult to get to. Wish it’s little lower in price though.
Review: I was so excited to get a new commercial Vitamix! I have had it almost three years now and it is terrible. It worked well for about a month or so and then seemed to start slipping. It would not blend thick smoothies (2 cups yogurt, 1 cup frozen blueberries, 2 whey ice cubes, 1 frozen banana) except on high and with the high boost. It would not blend thick slurries either and kept slipping where it would blend then not, but only on high with high boost. I tried to make an emulsion (oil and water) last week and it wouldn't blend much at all until I was on high. I contacted Tech Services after about a year and showed them the video of not blending at 1/2 full slurry on high and they just said you need to keep using the pusher and that this is normal. I had many people using OLD models of this vitamix and they RAVED about it for dry blending, thick slurries, frozen smoothies, so as you can imagine I was super excited to get a brand new one. This was an upgrade from my 3 year old refurbished blendtech. This product is horrible. My now 6 year old refurbished blendtech is still working amazingly (had to replace the container once for burning the seal out blending really really thick slurry of kale leaves and water for too long it really needed more water and blendtech is not designed for dry blending even though it does it really well), but it is still going strong and I find myself choosing the old refurbed blendtech over my 2.5 year old new commercial vitamix. No help from tech services either. this performance is "normal". If you are doing blended soups like squash soup, yup, works great. otherwise, it has been horrible for me and no support from vitamix. Not sure if I got a crappy one or not, but I guess at this point I would steer you to blendtech.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does the vita prep 3 compare to the a3500? i’ve been googling for this answer but haven’t gotten a good one so i figured i would ask here**
A: Is a very tough comparison because they are very different. Prep 3 is a workhorse,  3 horse power and has a 5 year warranty and that's huge since it is built to work in a commercial kitchen .  It has an amazing cooling fan at the highest speed and can do many jobs back to back without having to let it cool down. There are manual controls-no bells and whistles but its amazing how fast it gets the work done ! (I have tried numerous blenders)  A3500 has wireless connection and pairs with your phone and has 5 program settings and has 10 year warranty but it has 2.2. horse power and for me the higher horse power coupled with the cooling fan was very important . Prep 3 is 20.3" High and A3500 is 17" high, so that might be a factor if you plan to keep it on the counter top.

**Q: What is the Voltage, does it suppport 240V ?**
A: This is a 120V.

**Q: Does this need a separate dry container to grind flours? Which models of dry containers fit Prep 3?**
A: It best to use a dry container for flour. I use the same dry container I used for a the  vitamix I bought seven years ago on my new Prep 3.

**Q: What does this blender come with ? Tamper included ?**
A: Includes (1) tamper, (1) blade, (1) cap... Do yourself a favor and add a sprocket, blade and a cap to your order so you have them as backups. Commercial operations like mine will require those. You will enjoy it, its a beast.

I’ve owned a vitamix since I got out of college- over 30 years. As a vegetarian I use it at least once a day; often more. When my current very old vitamix needed some parts, I decided to replace it with this commercial pro model now that I have a family. I am absolutely thrilled with it! It has very solid performance. Intuitive controls. Powerful motor has handled everything with aplomb. Container is more heavy duty than regular vitamix. I recommend it without hesitation, especially if you need heavy duty blending needs
