Question: where can I get replacement gasket rings?  Mine broke in half.
Document: Just purchased this blender after my current blender broke. I had high hopes, as it had decent reviews. I used it for the first time this morning, following instructions in the package, and this thing was just awful. The blades barely moved. I had to keep shaking the whole thing to get it to mix it all. Also, the instructions mention certain fill lines on the container to use when adding ingredients. Mine has nothing on the container about fill lines. Anyways, I am def not impressed.
Less than a year of minimal use and the product does not start! How can I get a replacement? Thanks.
Either way, it's the only one that was strong enough to get this lid off, it's a real b**ch to pry open).2) After I'd been using the blender for about a year, the handle broke off the cup as I tried to open it.
I have never used this, but gave this as a gift to my brother in law last year for christmas. He drinks a smoothie every morning. My sister says he Loves this, and it is " the best gift he has ever recieved",  so much easier then breaking out the big blender,  Well, trying to get a jump on Christmas, I asked my sister how that smoothie express was working,  she said that he just broke the handle on it last week,  but still uses it.
Bought this for $16, probably wouldn't pay more than $20 for it.I actually had to get a replacement from Amazon, because the first one they sent me (granted, it was refurbished) burnt out within a week. Lovely customer service that they have, they gave me a new one and threw in rush delivery.This is perfectly fine for blending smoothies with frozen fruit and ice, as long as you have a good amount of liquid in there.
HEALTH HAZARD! Leaking oil into your smoothies!We bought this thing in December 2011, but it broke after some few months, and smelled like burned oil. But we liked it, so we just ordered a new one, hoping it would be better. We didn't even bother to get a refund. Today, the second one LEAKED OIL into my smoothie without me realizing it until I drank a big gulp of it. So, thanks to this machine I just drank something that looks like burned oil.
It is maybe 20 seconds to scrub it off and you're done. Yep, easy.I had no issue unscrewing the lid at all. But then I certainly didn't crank it down like I was holding back a tidal wave, either. It doesn't need to be screwed on very tightly - it has a rubber gasket that does all the work to prevent leaks.
And best of all, when I'm done with the shake, I just wash the cup, the lid, & the cap with the blades in it, and I'm done. Tip: If you're making a smoothie or protein shake using powder, just put about half an inch of water (or whatever liquid you want) in the bottom, THEN the powder, then ice cubes and the rest of the liquid/other ingredients.
Motor is strong and chops up frozen fruit beautifully. However, it's way too big. I make a single smoothie for myself in the morning and typically it doesn't even fill the cup half way. I have never had any problems with the lid sticking; all you have to do is twist it on until it's secure and don't over tighten and it will come off beautifully. Easy to clean without a dishwasher as well, which is a plus.
Everything to do with this hip & cosmopolitan little kitchen item is in like 5 languages! So there's only about a half a page you have to read to know what to do! (Plus I had read all the reviews here, so "pulsing" and ice cube layering concepts had already marinated in my brain. Whoo hooo! An initial wash in hot soapy water, rinse...and we were ready to make a smoothie.
