Awesome, thanks! My 12 year old Blendtec is still going strong, but my jars are failing after many years of use, so this deal is essentially giving me a free backup blender!
And this may spark up the usual Blendtec vs. Vitamix discussion..... I have both and I love both, but for small amounts of thick blends or making sauces and mayo etc., the Twister jar is the perfect tool and out of everything, that's what I use the most on a daily basis.
Great blender. Terrible jar design. FYI you will use the warranty on the jars when the bearings fail and leak. I decided to get a Vitamix a few months ago. Very happy.
Love the product. Disappointed in the lower warranties provided now. I got a 7 year warranty and had to use it on the jar. Would not hesitate to get another once the warranty was up if they kept the 7 year warranty.
Just used ours this morning and was pestering my wife about how much shit she gave me 10+ years ago when we bought ours and I spent $350ish on it. 2800 cycles later and she is a believer. That said, one of my jars started failing a couple years back, they wouldn't replace it even though the jar was defective, then they told me my old blender wasn't compatible with the new jars (not true), and the best they could offer me was a coupon for some percent off a new one. Got the coupon, it was only off full price and was a worse deal than the current sales. A+ for quality of blender, B+ for quality of jars, C- for customer service.

I've had mine since 2014 with the wildside and twister jars. After 2600 cycles, my jars are still holding up. I've only ever hand washed them.
I am at over 2K cycles strong but this is a great deal. In addition with the comments of jars failing I have a sneaky suspicion they are not being hand washed. 🤔
Thanks! I'm considering it. I bought ours about 5 years ago and just had to throw out our wildside+ jar a couple weeks ago after I ended up with melted black rubber in a smoothie from some part just under the blade. I think we're only up to 600-700 uses, and yes, it was only hand washed the entire time since we don't even own a dishwasher. After seeing the price of a replacement jar, I might as well just buy a brand new one at this price.

TU overall!
We use this blender for many years. Way better and cheaper than comparable Vitamix
