  "account": "Vitamix has introduced its first portable blender, the Ion, just two months after releasing Nano, its personal blender. The Ion is a cordless blender designed for blending smoothies, shakes, and frappés on the go. Vitamix's vice president of sales and marketing, Laura Ostenkamp, stated that the Ion was created to provide users with more flexibility in blending, whether at the gym, office, or away from home. The Ion comes with a 24-ounce, BPA-free container featuring a handle and a flip-top lid. Users can blend ingredients within the same container by double-clicking the blender's single button, activating the aluminum-enclosed, removable motor base and stainless steel blades. With USB-C charging, the Ion offers 15 blends per charge, enough for over a week of daily smoothies without recharging. Priced at $150, the Ion includes a two-year limited warranty and is available on Vitamix.com and select retailers like Amazon. The reviewer is currently testing the Ion in their own kitchen and will provide a full review soon.",
