My new Vitamix blender is rated at 11.5 amps, but twice tripped the circuit breaker when I used it for the first time a few days ago. The circuit breaker has the number "20" on the switch; I assume it's a 20 amp breaker.
I plan to talk to Vitamix about this, but would like some feedback from the likelier-to-be impartial forum visitors here: do you think I received a blender with a bad motor? Or are there circumstances in which even a 20 amp circuit might not be enough for a heavy duty blender?
