I believe it was defected as well. It only lasted for a week and a half. I got it from Bed, Bath and Beyond and they didn't give me a hassle when I returned it which was cool, but I didn't care to exchange it for another one. I just bought it because it was decently priced and I heard some good things about it, but it annoyed the hell out of me that it stopped working that fast.
I LOVE my Vitamix though and I always wanted one. I'm a huge fan of Jamba Juice smoothies and I saw that they use Vitamix blenders and decided to get one after the nutribullet fiasco. It has a strong motor, it blends everything thoroughly and you can even cook soup in it. Can't complain at all.
