Replacement jar for a GE Insta Blend 14

Many blenders will work with a standard canning jar (pint or quart) I'm not sure if that will work for you, but it's a definite cheap fix.

I need a replacement jar for a GE Blender model 169053

By now I'm sure you've given up, but do you still need the jar? I have one that is now useless to me since my son tried to run the blender when the jar and base were not seated correctly and the rotors on both were worn off.

My blender slowed down when I tried to make a

If the motor of the blender is running at a slower speed now no matter what you're blending, the unit needs to repaired or replaced. Most small appliance manufacturers    { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } A:link { so-language: zxx } --> don't repair their units anymore, they simply replace them. If you're no longer in warranty, unless you paid over $200 for the blender, it's time to get a new one.

I hope I've provided you useful assistance and that this information allows you to make an informed decision as to how to proceed from here. Please be sure to vote on my response. I hope I've earned a good rating from you today.

Please post a comment if you need additional assistance so that I can help you further.

Hello, we stored the blender

1) Vinegar - apply vinegar to a rag and apply to any exposed areas - use a q-tip to dribble vinegar into hard-to-reach places. Let a cup of vinegar sit in jar itself. After 20 minutes, try to remove.

2) Hot Water in blender jar.

3) Freezer - don't let it sit too long - 10 mins tops - last resort.

If all else fails, break parts, and reorder them here:

Good luck!

Replacement blender jar

This is straight from the manufacturer:
Canada - Warranty Information
If your appliance is within the warranty period and you are experiencing difficulties please contact us 800-688-1989 or e-mail us at Customer Service. The Back to Basics Web site currently accepts and ships orders within the continental United States only.

Do you have any friends in the US that you could ship to? It would probably be prohibitively expensive compared to the cost of a new one.
