Vitamix Blender Containers Recalled After 11 People Injured By Exposed Blade

Vitamix announced last week that they are recalling blender containers after 11 people reported lacerations as a result of an exposed blade. The recall affects approximately 105,000 of the Ascent and Venturist 8-ounce and 20-ounce containers made in March 2018 or earlier.
