Blendtec Certified Refurbished blenders go through a very thorough reconditioning process at their factory in Orem, Utah. All worn or damaged parts on the blender base are replaced with new parts, making it virtually impossible to tell apart from a brand new model. Also, all of the included accessories and the jar are replaced with new components, and unlike the refurbished packages offered by Vitamix, all Blendtec Certified Refurbished models automatically come with the full 7 year warranty, while Vitamix only offers a standard 5 year warranty on refurbished models.
