The bottom of my insta bland (the part with the blades) has cracked all the way through and leaks whenever I use it. Where could I find replacement parts?
I have the same problem. It appears the company that made insta blend is no longer in business. I have my original users manual and have tried to go to the website they have provided in the manual- no website can be found. I then tried to search for the business- Energie Corp.
USA- still nothing. If you find anything please let me know. Mine is not leaking yet but is cracked! I am thinking to replace it with a Magic Bullet or the one JC Penneys makes- Cooks something or another. My sisters and parents have the one from Penneys and it works just as well. Lot less expensive than the insta blend- only 29.99I have the same problem. It appears the company that made insta blend is no longer in business.

I'm no expert but in my experience if it leaking at the bottom then either the jar /carafe has a few chips or cracks around the hole in the bottom that the blade fits through and in that case you need to replace the jar and your blade assembly may still be good and can be moved to a new jar/carafe. Or the blade assembly has come loose a little and need to be tightened or some the washers (usually the rubber ones) have worn out and need to be replaced. There's plenty of explanation here at amazon and else where on how to replace the assembly blade, move it to a new jar and tighten it down, etc. Hope this helps!
Make sure the blade assembly is put together in the correct order. The blade needs to go through the gasket so that the order is pitcher glass, gasket, and metal blade base. Then the final plastic cap threaded onto the pitcher. If the gasket is not between the pitcher and the metal blade assembly, you will have leaks. Also, check the gasket to be sure it's not cracked and that it doesn't have residue on it. I hope this helps. If it does, please come back and rate my suggestion!
There is probably a hairline fracture or tiny crack in the blade assembly itself - replace the blade assembly - it will automatically come with a gasket, so you will have an extra.
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.
