After spending 200$ for a supposedly premium Philips blender which broke in less than one year after having been sent to assistance, having parts replaced and broken again, been repaired by me and after I spent thousands of swear and curses, I am really this ’ ’ close to smashing it with an hammer and crucifying it to scare the other Philips products away from my kitchen.

Since those were 200$ wasted, and my parents and grandparents kitchen stuff worked sometimes for 30 years before breaking, where can I get my grandparents gear? Should I just resort to smashing vegetables and fruits by hand with stones?

    I bought a Blendtec about ten years ago and it has been amazing. Never once has it even needed maintenance, let alone broken.

      Don’t breathe this!

      Seriously some of the best marketing. I know almost jack shit about blenders, but as soon as I saw this post, I immediately thought of Blendtec. Why?

      Because I watched the owner demonstrate many times that his blender could turn things like smartphones, other blenders, and even an entire fucking rake into powder. If I’m shopping for a blender, I think I’ll go with the one good enough to literally blend other blenders.
