Question 1

Can it blend an Iphone?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it will also jailbreak it and root Android phones as well.

Disclaimer: Never, ever try to blend electronic devices, especially if they contain lithium-ion batteries. Severe harm or even death can come to anyone in the vicinity of such an operation.

Besides, even if you do escape unharmed, two large centipedes will crawl into your nostrils while you're sleeping and eat your entire brain without any risk whatsoever of getting indigestion.

Question 2

can it be used as a juicer?

Accepted Answer

In the strict sense, no.  Juicers extract the juice (water) from the plants.  The vitamix blends the plants into a smooth concoction.  You do need to add juice or water to do this but would be amazed at how little.  If your goal is to create the healthiest and tastiest drink than go with the vitamix and make a smoothie.  You will read that he advantage of smoothies is fiber, but that is not completely true.  Think about how much of the vitamins, anti-oxidants that are left in the plant itself after you extract out the water/juice.  Especially in non-juicy plants like; spinach, kale, carrots, etc...  Plus you can throw in healthy juice, protein power, Metamucil, etc... into the vitamix and it will blend it all into a very smooth drink. But if a smoothie is not your idea of a meal and you just want a healthy juice to go with your meal/breakfast than I would go with a juicer, not the vitamix.  It blends extremely well but does not extract.  Hope that helps.

Question 4

Can anyone recommend a good scrapper to remove all the contents from the glass container? I feel like I'm leaving too much behind.

Accepted Answer

The GreenLife Easy Reach Silicone Spatula Set (ASIN B0998J4CJJ) is amazingly well designed for this purpose and fits this Vitamix classic container perfectly. It works so much better than a regular long/narrow spatula!
