Kitchen Blenders

Posts Tagged ‘Second Time’

My wife and I received a Waring Blender (60th Anniversary edition) from our wedding registry at Williams Sonoma. During the second time we ever used it, the blade shaft snapped in two while trying to crush ice. We immediately returned it to Williams Sonoma, and the store manager told us that they get 4-5 Waring blenders returned every week!! This obviously is not the same company anymore, so please pay attention to the other negative reviews, which seem to be indicative of our experience.

P.S. - We traded ours in for a Kitchen Aid, which works 100 times better than the Waring.

I feel like the blender isn’t working quite as well as it used to with this blade. I’m wondering if maybe I should have gotten the ice crusher blade instead. This blade is still fine, though. Certainly beats buying a whole new blender! My blender is four years old, and this is the second time I’ve had to replace the blade. If one day your blender will turn on but the blade doesn’t move at all, that’s when it’s time to replace the blade!

We purchased this blender at a local home improvement store, thinking the well-respected name, 600 watt motor, and glass pitcher would equal one heavy-duty machine. It looks great! But, it stopped working mid-way through the second batch of frozen drinks! Didn’t have it turned “ON,” I was using the pulsing feature. So, called the Customer Service number, and they said I could send it to them for repair or replacement in two weeks. The reatiler was 10 minutes away, so returning it there was no big deal.

The second time around, the blender again stopped working during the second use. I made the children some banana milkshakes, rinsed the pitcher out, to make some strawberry frozen drinks for us. The darned thing stopped working again! Called Customer Service about it and they gave me the same story. So, back to the home-store . . .

Take three . . . new machine . . . made one batch of our favourite frozen drinks again. Poured two glasses and left the rest sitting in the pitcher for seconds. When I came back for seconds, I wanted to tap the pulse feature to re-blend the drinks . . . but, the thing wouldn’t work!! Back on the phone to Customer Service. They suggested I check their website and select another of their “fine blender line.” YEAH RIGHT!!! They also said that “maybe you got a ‘bad batch’.” A “bad batch” of blenders?

Several things can be learned here: I enjoy frozen strawberry drinks too much, my local home improvement store has great customer service, and THIS BLENDER IS A PIECE OF JUNK!!!!

I purchased this blender to replace my 8 year old blender that popped a hole while crushing ice. My primary purpose for using this is to crush ice and make blended coffees. My husband didn’t want me to spend too much money so after looking at this model in the store, I purchased it. Upon first use, it leaked through the bottom. I found I didn’t have the base tightened all the way–something that wasn’t mentioned at all in the book that came with–and after tightening, it still seemed to leak. I thought that perhaps liquid had been trapped and hoped that tightening the base would fix the problem. Alas, the second time I used it, it leaked again. I mentioned it to my husband and asked him to tighten the base, which he obligingly did. The third time, I decided to just put water in it to see if it still leaks, which it does. The only positive is my husband witnessed this firsthand and has given me the go ahead to purchase a more expensive and hopefully higher quality, better built blender. Unless this undergoes a redesign to fix the leaking problem, I say stay away!

I ignored the reviews that warned of early mortality because I figured that my intended use would be relatively easy — just the occasional smoothie, not grinding ice cubes, for example. The motor burned out the second time I used it.

This Braun immersion blender worked beautifully the first time I used it; I made a creamy potato soup that was simply to die for. However, the second time I used it, to chop nuts using the chopper attachment, the motor burned out completely in a matter of minutes. Then I discovered that Braun has discontinued the product and all others like it, so I was unable to replace the motor. The service representative was very nice and said to return the product for a refund, which I did, and which I have not yet received. My advice is choose another brand, no matter how good the price is on this one. The concept, however, is wonderful.
