Honestly if you have ever been in a real kitchen or restaurant they 9/10 times use a vitamix over blendtec. Vitamix is more of a manually controlled blender where as the blendtec is a set it and forget it type with different modes and all sorts of buttons. As for the pitcher size...this is what led me to get the vitamix over the blendtec. Wider the pitcher the less consistent blend or you have to stop it and scrape the food off the sides. Since i deal with a lot of powders and dried material the funneled pitcher of the vitamix was what i wanted. I havent had an issues with a wobbly blender and i fill this thing up to the 6 cup mark every morning and leave it running while I go about my morning. Theyre both great machines.
