Hi,
 I had a Vitamix (for 15 years), a coffee grinder for small amounts of flax seeds and a Thermomix.
The thermomix wins hands down! It is easier to use (especially as you can do any amount - either small or large), it is so much easier to clean so you don't hesitate to use it, it is less scary to use ( sometimes I thought the Vitamix sounded strained although nothing ever happened), and you don't need to change containers. Also stainless steel is much easier to clean.
I have now sold my Vitamix and never use the coffee grinder. The thermomix is truly a multi-purpose machine.

I can't see why anyone would compare a Thermomix with a Vitamix in order to make a decision on which to purchase. That's like trying to choose between a vacuum cleaner and a broom!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

I still want to know they choose.
My Thermomix,  Kitchen Aid, Pizza oven, Nu Wave 5 in 1, Spatulas, all brings love, laughter, happiness, and great food  to my kitchen.

Thank you all for the replies, I've read carefully what you said, and I've finally made my decision based on that, and further research.
What did you decide on lautaro?
