Leaking blender




By ljbrinkmann on Jan 27, 2009

My red, smoothie pro 600
leaks through the bottom of the blender no matter how tight the base is screwed on.
I wondered if it needs a new rubber gasket.

Same Problem

-   Mine also leaks, it has a crack in the collar also, seems to me it is a defect, because this happened after the very first time I used it......not sure if I want to get a new part or just throw the whole thing away.-   Guest

-   My red Smoothie Pro 600 base leaks also. I lost all my smoothie last time I used it. I was very upset about the mess that it caused. I have put it up and have not used it since. Looking for a solution. Thought I may need a new rubber gasket. I will see if it may be upside down. Did not know it had to be certain way. I am about ready to look for another one. Help, if you can.-   Charlais

I know this may sound dumb but are you sure the rubber  gasket is not on upside down?

Mine also leaked from day 1. I just read in the manual to first place the bottom and blade assembly on the counter, then seat the gasket around the blade assembly, making sure it is just under the lip of the blade piece (careful, you have to maneuver around the blades). Then place the jar on the assembly and screw in tightly. This worked and I have no more leaks.
This is different than other blenders where you place the gasket on the jar and then attach the bottom. It is a poor design, but after what I paid for it, I am glad to be able to use it and not just trash it.
