Some blenders, sold between October 2014 and June 2015, may present a defect during their lifetime under particular high stress conditions.
This defect can cause the blade to break, posing a laceration or an ingestion hazard.
If you own a BLEND-X PRO BLM800, type BLM80 only, please proceed through the following procedure to determine if you have a unit affected.
1. Please check the type and record the date code, which can be found on the rating plate, located on the underside of the product.
If your unit has type BLM80 and the date code from 14x01 to 15x22, where “x” is a letter (e.g.14S52), it may be affected. Please proceed to the following point.
2. Please check if the blender blades have the laser etched identification as per below.
If NO, then your product is affected.
