The Vita-Mix XL Commercial Blender is the perfect tool for any restaurant, caterer, school, hospital, or vendor with a lot of work to do in a small amount of time. The Vita-Mix XL Blender can tackle the largest and toughest tasks with its 4.2 HP motor and 192 ounce (that's 1.5 Gallons!) container, but the picture only tells half the story. Save money during food prep in a busy kitchen by making one extra large batch instead of 3 smaller ones. The 1.5 Gallon container is safe for both hot and cold ingredients, so you can make up to twenty-four 8 ounce frozen drinks
