  • Question
    Will leaving smoothie ingredients in the blender overnight damage my blades?
    Community Answer
    No, they will not. However, I would recommend cleaning it out ASAP the next day; it could cause the blades to start rusting over time.
  • Question
    How many times can a blender be used daily?
    Community Answer
    That honestly depends on how much is going in it, what is going in it, and how long it is being run. The harder the items, and the thicker the mix, and longer it is being run, the fewer times it can be run without the motor having time to recover.

    If your blender motor stops working because of liquid inside, you can certainly try fixing it yourself, though you may void any warranty. Better to take it to an appliance repair and have them try.

    You can often blend dry ingredients in a blender using short pulses. However, be sure to check your manual to ensure yours can do this. If it doesn't specifically say it can, then don't.
