This recall involves about 569,000 Vitamix Ascent and Venturist Series 8-ounce and 20-ounce blending containers and blade bases. The clear containers can separate from the black blade bases, exposing the moving blades and posing a serious risk of cuts. Vitamix has received 27 reports of lacerations to consumers' hands, including 11 reports linked to a previous 2018 recall of the same product families. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled containers and contact Vitamix for a free repair kit consisting of a protective plastic shroud and updated instructional labels.
The blending containers can detach from the base during use, exposing sharp, high-speed blades. This has caused at least 27 reported laceration injuries when consumers' hands came into contact with the exposed blades.
All consumers, including consumers who participated in the 2018 recall, should immediately stop using the recalled 8-ounce and 20-ounce blending containers and blade bases, and contact Vitamix for a repair kit consisting of a protective plastic shroud to attach over the blade base and additional instructional labels.
Includes units repaired during the previous August 2018 recall.
