Vitamix 5200

The Vitamix 5200 uses the same Eastman Tritan plastic found across the premium blender category — BPA-free and shatter-resistant for daily use. Mamavation, an independent health-testing organization, reviewed Vitamix Tritan models and classified them as use-with-caution, noting that independent testing found trace chemical migration under standard conditions.

The most significant gap is the seal and gasket material: the rubber component at the base of the jar contacts your food on every blend, but Vitamix doesn't disclose what it's made of anywhere we could find. This opacity is the primary driver of the safety score.
