The Alterna Jar fits on many different blender base styles. Basically there are 2 different style bases. One is the Blendtec design and the other one is like the Vitamix. Vitamix, Omni, Omega, Klarstein, Optimum, Waring 3.5 hp blenders, and Good4U blenders are all the same style. Actually Omni JTC manufactures and then private labels Klarstein and Optimum while Waring makes and then private labels the Good4U. Therefore there are many other brands made by same-kind factories whoes blenders have bases onto which the Alterna Jar fits and is compatible with. The blade has to be switched because the gears are different between the 2 basic base styles and these blenders turn into different operational directions so the blades are sharpened on the opposite sides.
