Title: Don't Buy This Blender!!!!
Review: I purchased this blender 1 year ago and used it very infrequently. Today it began to malfunction; the blade would not turn but the motor was running. When I turned the blender on briefly to see if the base spinning, the black plastic "clutch assembly" shattered almost taking my eye out. I called customer service to explain the problem and the rep immediately identified the defective piece as the clutch assembly and was told to send back the base with a $10 shipping fee. This blender is not worth the high price charged. It seems to have a manufacturing defect and you be charged for shipping the product both ways if your's breaks, except in California. Stay away from this blender.
