Our take
I bought this Vitamix VM0197 knowing it was for parts or repair. The 750-watt motor and 10-speed dial are promising, but the unit doesn't work out of the box. It's in decent cosmetic condition—black plastic, no major cracks. The blade assembly looks good, so I'm hoping to fix it with a new switch. For $75, it's a gamble: you might get it working with some electrical knowledge, or you could end up with an expensive paperweight. If you're handy, it could be a steal, but be prepared to troubleshoot.
