Title: Plastic gear mechanism broke
Product review: After using this blender for about 3 years for blending softer food, I started making smoothies recently in it using frozen strawberries, milk and yogurt. The frozen strawberries must have been too much for it despite the liquid in there. The black gear mechanism that turns the blades broke. I can't find where to buy a replacement part or where to buy a replacement for the bottom of the blender (not the pitcher) so I bought another brand and will probably trash this one. So disappointed in Cuisinart since they have a good reputation for other things.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
