Tamper is 1/2 inch shorter than Original
By Lucas
This tamper is sturdy and feels like it could take quite a bit more abuse than my previous one (the original that came with my Vitamix 5200).
Unfortunately, this tamper is 1/2 inch shorter than the original and it has seriously hampered its usefulness. In my 64ounce container it does not work nearly as effectively as my previous tamper since it leaves a significant distance between itself and the blade. While this may prevent it from colliding with the blade, it isn't long enough for me to make effective nut butters or ground smaller things into the blades. There simply isn't enough length to force some of the more difficult to grind foods down into the blade. I can still make peanut butter, but only if I make a greater amount, enabling the tamper to be more effective.
If I could still return this I would buy the true original from Vitamix themselves, or at least try and find accurate measurements before ordering another.

A Must Have
By apoem
If you have a vitamix, you must have this. One came with my Vitamix. But should you have a husband that doesn't put the lid on and just uses this to push everything down deep into the vitamix machine and if the Vitamix chops off the end of this special tamper tool; you must buy a replacement. There is nothing that I have in my drawers that really can get down deep enough in the hole on the top of the lid to push everything down into the Vitamix to get it all blended up well.
Well worth the money.
enjoy.

The real thing
By padamssm
This is the pusher for the Vitamix blender. It is identical to the one that came originally with the Vitamix. Our Vitamix is used by many volunteer cooks whose skills vary. If you push down hard on the tamper, the end can be shredded by the blade. Use reasonable pressure.
