Is my blending container/blade base part of the recall?
This recall involves Ascent® and Venturist® Series 8-ounce blending containers, 20-ounce blending containers, and blade bases. The clear containers and black blade bases are included with certain Vitamix Venturist and Ascent Model blenders such as the Venturist V1200, Ascent 2300, Ascent 2500, Ascent 3300 and Ascent 3500 blenders and also sold separately, as sets, or in bundles.

Why are the 20-ounce Blending Cups and 8-ounce Blending Bowls being recalled?
Vitamix is voluntarily recalling the Vitamix® 20-ounce Blending Cups and 8-ounce Blending Bowls because it is possible that the cup or bowl may separate from the blade base, exposing the blades and posing a laceration hazard.
