Customer Review: Looks Great, Doesn't Last Long
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this blender just over two months ago to replace a Kitchen Aid blender I had. I was angry over the fact that the Kitchen Aid stopped working since my use of it was sparse: primarily to make my protein shakes. Just so happens the unit breaks just as the warranty expired and Kitchen Aid wanted to charge me $150.00 to have the unit repaired...huh? Is Kitchen Aid on drugs?...that is more than I paid for it new!!!. So I bought this Hamilton Beach as a replacement and after two and a half months of sparse use, take a wild guess at what happened??? The Hamilton Beach died. Now I have to say upon receiving the unit it was nice, heavy and solid feeling. It blended well when it worked and was relatively quiet.
I called up their customer service only to be told after a twelve minute hold session "Oh, we don't make that model anymore". OK, so what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?...I have a three year warranty on this lady. The customer service agent had to speak to her supervisor about getting me a new unit. After hemming and hawing for some time, she finally returned and said a new unit was found and she would send it out. For a blender that never was used to crush ice or blend anything heavier than a protein shake it is odd how delicate it is. Nonetheless I will say the blender is nice in appearance, but for lasting quality and customer service it gets very poor grades.
I will see how the new blender does...I have a feeling I will be back on the phone with Hamilton Beach with this new one in the very near future over the same matter.
BTW this blender is made in China....
