The Omniblend headquarters is JTC in Taiwan. JTC have 30 years of experience in electronics and home appliance design. Using parts produced in Germany and Japan, the Omniblender is manufactured in China with a focus on strict quality control. Visit their website https://www.jtc.tw/

JTC products conform to UL, CE and IEC standards. The factory is an ISO 9001:2000 approved facility.

The OmniBlender is such a good machine that they are now many companies purchasing in volumes sufficiently high that JTC will produce them with different brand names. Some examples include models in the following ranges: Lexsun, Vitality4Life Biochef, and more. Some older Optimum models were also made by JTC.

There are several reasons for this – the Vitamix is manufactured in the USA where labour costs are high. With an obligatory standard 7-year (for domestic users only) warranty Vitamix has to cover the anticipated repairs under warranty .. plus there is the marketing machine, which costs big money.

By contrast Omniblender is manufactured in China, where labour costs are lower. Accordingly, this also allows better quality control.

The standard 2-year warranty covers commercial use and domestic users can pay a small premium for extending the warranty if they wish. Omniblend NZ imports the Omniblender direct from the manufacturer and direct-sells to the end user, so by cutting out the “middle-man” the costs are lower.

- Electronic control panel is flat and wipes clean easily. The manual models have switches.
Do you plan to make sorbet/ice cream often?͐

Do you have a limited amount of space under the cupboards?͐

Do you want to be able to use a sound-reducing enclosure?͐
