Title: plastic material does not age well/ withstand boiling hot liquids
Review: I have used my braun hand held blender for 10 years with satisfaction. It did not come with a bowl or a chopper. It reads Model 4169 Made in Mexico.I blend hot vegetable soups directly in the pot, so it is boiling hot. I noticed cracks appearing in the plastic at the end of the shaft, a few years ago, and my sense is that the plastic is not sturdy enough to withstand durably, boiling hot temperatures. Now some bits of it have broken off. I am going to shop for one but this time I want:1 a metallic shaft2 a longer shaft3 a detachable/ replacable one because the motor of my Braun is fine and could last more years but it is in one piece so I cannot just replace the shaft: A pity!
