Black & Decker 5-Speed Blender - Red

My wife bought this blender because it was red. I make smoothies using frozen fruit a couple of times a week. It worked for about a year until this morning when the bottom screw stripped, making an awful sound and smell. I found an old Oster blender...

We had one of these that last a few years and then it burned out. It's supposed to have an override to turn it off before that happens. The override failed. We ordered a new one because it was cheaper than a lot of others. From the very beginning the...

We received this blender for a wedding gift. Once we started using it we went through 3 of them in less than 3 months. The glass jar keeps cracking. The blending power is OK, but at this price the jar should not crack

I received this blender as a give a couple of years ago and it has never worked well. Shame on me for taking 2 years to replace it. The good...It has a nice sturdy base with suction cups to keep it firmly held down and a solid feeling glass pitcher,...

The scary part is to find the blender running unattended without anyone turning it on. We've owned this blender for perhaps two years, using it for a variety of food and drink preparation purposes, but not for crushing ice. Two weeks ago I was home...

Bought at Sam's club worked great for less than a year, then it stopped working in the middle of my work. I checked around online almost everyone complained about the same problem. Will never buy black & decker blender ever again.

This blender is below average. It frequently overheats with only moderate use. The black ring has cracked, rendering it useless. I'm contemplating buying another brand rather than invest in replacement parts for this lame product.

As mentioned by others, the plastic base of the cutter assembly started cracking on mine. I was thinking of replacing it when the glass jar broke and figured it was time to buy a new blender. I barely used this blender and never used it to blend ice,...

I now have had three of these blenders and with each one, the blender motor burns out after just a few uses - so I say three is three too many! This product promotes a 500-550 watt motor strong enough for crushing ice, but don't count on it. If your...
