Kitchen Blenders

I’m not one for writing reviews. I either have to be madly in love with something or have the following happen in order for me to take the time and energy to do this. Because of my experience with this product, I am compelled to warn potential buyers.
I bought this blender about 2.5 years ago. I did not get it from Amazon, but that’s beside the point. It began to leak from the base, at which point, if I did not clean it EVERY time, mold and mildew would develop. I would have my husband tighten it, because I thought I wasn’t making it tight enough. Well, that wasn’t it. Shortly after, the “chrome” base began to blister and peel. I thought that my protein shakes, which leaked, had caused the peeling. I started to think about what might have been in the shakes! The company did replace the entire unit, which I was thrilled about. I thought that the company was making good on a “faulty” unit. Well, the new unit arrives, and it leaks, too. So, this is obviously not just a one-time-only issue. (Now, I see reading other reviews, this is a common problem). A couple of months after that, the base blistered and peeled AGAIN. Great. I never bothered to contact the company, because what was the point - were they going to send me a new blender every 9 - 12 months??? No. So, I kept it and figured that everything else worked, and I would just deal with the cleanup and cosmetic issues for (what I was hoping would be) several years. HeHem, bottom line - I just ordered a Vita-Mix. Why? Well, last week, the blender began to make grinding sounds. I looked over to find that my contents had turned black and the kitchen started to stink of burnt rubber! The base beneath the blades was insanely hot, the blades loosened from the base, and lubricant leaked into the blender contents. UGH! I go to my computer, thinking that I now had to order a replacement part. Guess what? They DON’T have ANY replacement parts for this thing! So, if your glass jar should break - you’ll be buying a new $200 blender! Two hours later, I went and did what I should have done from the very start - invest in a Vita-Mix. It may be a lot more expensive, but I won’t be spending $200 every 2.5 years for a new blender!
I will NEVER! (repeat - NEVER!) buy another Breville product again (and neither will my family or friends). They look very nice and sleek, but apparently that’s about it for their products. Functionally, they aren’t worth the cardboard that they come in. Oh, and when I was researching juicers, I found that people had very similar problems with the juicer as well. Breville buyers, be forewarned! Either save your money and go for something cheaper that you don’t mind replacing or make a wiser investement and go for something more expensive that will last a lot longer.
