My original tamper for my 5200 is 12.75" and that's what the tamper on the Vitamix site is. So is this one really only 12" long? My container=68oz

Honestly I don't see a difference. I believe it's the same size as the original. I can't measure now due to being away from my household goods. We are a military family so our goods are on their way from overseas. Sorry, but hope this helps. :))

No, I just went and measured. It's 12.75". I wonder why they list it incorrectly. Anyway, it's the exact measurements of the original.

My tamper measures: 12 3/4 inches the entire length but only 9 1/2 inches from where it stops on the lid and extends into the blender. My container is 68 oz.

I thought that container was recalled due to the blade. If not, no, this tamper will not work with that container because the container is too short. You will get pieces of the tamper in your mixture if you do use a regular size tamper. You will need a shorter one for that container. I hope that helps.

It came with Professional Series Model VM0103. I will ask Vitamix corp if compatible with 5200s.

It worked fine for my Vitamix model, but I don't have the model number in front of me right now, sorry.

Yes it is! this tamper fits a 5000 and 5200 vitamix. I have the 5000 vitamix. But before ordering the part from Amazon and replacing the old tamper I asked representative of Vitamix at Costco this question and showed him the picture of tamper from Amazon. I was told that 5000 5200 Vitamix are the same and it is going to fit and the representative was right. It fits and it is great.

All waring containers fit the vitamix unless they changed something that I don't know of

I measured mine to be 8 inches long but they are thicker than most which is awesome for smoothies. Hope this helps

Yes. The 6300 comes with the tall 64 oz. container and this is the correct tamper for that container.

My Vitamix is Model VM103 and someone in my comments section told me it was the 5000. It does not come with a blade or a wrench. I already had both and just switched the blade to the new container. It is still working fine and I am enjoying smoothies, etc. once again.

Yes, both the 32 oz. container and the 48 oz. container are compatible with your 6300. You should use the mini-tamper for the 32 oz. container. Although, theoretically, the "step" in the longer tamper that comes with the tall 64 oz. container should permit its use with the shorter 32 oz. container, the truth is that all too often it doesn't work. Vigorous tamping with the longer tamper has resulted in pushing it past the "step" and into the blades, thereby destroying the end of the tamper. It just isn't worth the risk. Use the mini-tamper that's designed for the shorter (32 oz. and 48 oz.) containers. The mini-tamper is available from Vitamix.com.

Can't say for sure that it is a vitamix tamper, but it sure looks and works like my original. It works fine.

I don't know, I have the older 64 oz container. Definitely worth a call to Vitamix to find out.

There is a tamper that comes with the machine; however, it is made of plastic, has an odd shape, is nearly 2mm smaller than the bottomless portafilter, and is hard to get a proper grip on. If you're like me, you'll find yourself having a hard time getting it to tamp flat. This isn't a big deal with the pressurized basket, but if you want to use the bottomless portafilter, I would say a proper stainless steel tamper (of the proper size) is a good investment. I took some measurements: The tamper that it comes with is around 49.5mm and the bottomless portafilter has an inner diameter of roughly 51mm. I was just eyeballing with a ruler, so don't take these measurements as exact - I don't have a caliper lying around, so I can't get more accurate than that. I bought a 51mm tamper (measuring with a ruler, the tamper's actual diameter looks to be 50.5mm), and it fits almost perfectly. There's just barely a half millimeter of give when I put that tamper in the bottomless portafilter, as opposed to nearly 2mm of give with the tamper it comes with. I took a few pictures of the measurements and will upload one each of the tamper and the bottomless portafilter shortly.

This fits on the vitamix right out of the box. I love it & have been using it for a few months to make smoothies daily. It makes great smoothies with easier cleanup & wasted ingredients than vitamix. The vortex it creates sucks the ingredients down more vigorously than the vitamix jar. No tamper is needed. However, the vitamix jar is superior for making bnt butters & frozen desserts because of the tamper. Hope this helps There is another jar (rebel) that requires you to substitute a blendtec drive on your vitamix.

No, it does not come with tamper. I do still use the tamper from original vitamix container although it is not a perfect fit.

We bought a separate tamper as well to use for our espresso making. It's nothing fancy but does the job well. RSVP Terry's Tamper for Espresso We use the 50mm side (smaller side) and it works great!

After ordering the wrong plug for my Vitamix on an independent site I called the Vitamix site and was assisted perfectly by their rep. She said some replacements are the whole lid only. Done and now it is in the mail to me.
