has been a great jar until it wasn't. You've seen videos on youtube of Blendtec blending Ipad, iPhone, etc.? well, don't do couple of frozen banana halves! The gasket loses that battle. Gasket particles in your drink!! I filled out the contact form on blendtec's web page, no reply.
I have been using my jar twice a day at least 5 days out of the week and it finally gave out. I can say I got good use out of it. Time for a new shiny one !!!
I bought a Blendtec Blender Model ES3 with the jar is Wildside Jar 32 Oz , Part# 40-505 many years ago .Now the Jar leaked, How can I order a jar replacement that fits to my blendtec blender
So obsessed with this blender. My old WildSide+ jar broke after about 4 years of heavy use. I tried using a Ninja for 6 months before I caved and bought a replacement BlendTech jar. I'd forgotten how SMOOTH things could be! My favorite thing about it is how well it blends chunky blackberry seeds and spinach/kale in my smoothies. It's dang expensive, but SO WORTH IT.
The Jar arrived with a deep scratch in it and was obviously a result of production, not shipping. The lid is absolute garbage and does not stay sealed. Luckily we still have the original lid which still provides an adequate seal. If this new lid is provided on all new purchases this company will fail within the next year or 2. Bring back the original lid or no one will ever buy your product again.
We make smoothies with frozen fruit 1x per week. After 2 years the previous wildside+ froze up. You know how much you charge for a molded piece of plastic with sealed bearings. Ridiculous! - Wish we'd bought something else, but we're locked in to blendtec, hoping the motor doesn't go out.
