do you think I could get for my other household appliances that it would replace?

I have:
Kitchen Aid Food Processor Professional 670(2 years old)
Kitchen Aid Classic Stand Mixer (3 years old)
Jack LaLane Power Juicer(8 months old)
Rival Bread Maker (4 years old)
Cuisinart Blender (10 years old)


All are in good condition, not heavily used. I am assuming I really couldn't get much for the blender and probably the bread maker, but does anyone have any idea what the resale value is on such items?

and use it before you get rid of all your other appliances. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Vitamix, but it has NOT replaced everythig like they claim. LOL I still have and use constantly my 6 qt. Kitchen Aid, and hand mixer. I like the fruit juice that the vitamix makes, but not the veggie juice. Honestly you can hardly call it juice. It is so thick and pulpy that it chokes me when I try to down it. Weird.. I know.

I use my Vitamix for smoothies, ice cream, salsa, blending, and grinding grains etc...

I use my Kitchen Aid for kneading breads and mixing etc...

It does ok as a food processer, but you might regret getting rid of that too. LOL

Anyway, not to discourage you, cause I think a Vitamix is worth every penny, but I'd hold off on getting rid of the other things til you've worked with the Vitamix awhile.
