Good appliance that needs to be improved

About two weeks ago I purchased the Oster® Perform Blend™ 200 with Reversing Blade Technology - Black - Glass Jar BRLY07-B00-NP0. I only use it to make my morning smoothie consisting of water, coconut flakes, 1/2 apple, and/or several pieces of papaya, ground flax seed and sesame seeds.
This is one of few blenders with a glass jar, which I was looking for as I do not like any plastic or BPA free plastics (I don't trust these as they all leach BPA), and affordable for anyone on a modest SS budget. Also the base is sturdy and does not dance around when it is running. It does not take much space on my counter and is easy to clean. Good features, when they work.
On this particular model, however, I do cover the glass top with parchment paper before I place the lid so that the ingredients do not come in contact with the all plastic lid.
I was pleasantly surprised at how creamy my first morning smoothie came out with using just the pre-programed setting for frozen fruits (do not use frozen fruits or ice). Unfortunately, the next day my smoothie was not so smooth on this same setting. I did notice that the speed was not the same. So I ran it again, but no smoothie. Then I ran the manual setting for maximum ice crush followed by the maximum pulse, and still no smoothie. Then I thought that if I filled the glass jar with the ingredients and water and let it stand in the fridge the night before it would be soft enough to blend better, but no such luck. It may be that my blender is flawed, but after two weeks of drinking a gritty and not-so-smooth smoothie, I have given up trying and am returning it to the store for a replacement. I hope that the new one will not let me down.
Looked at your other heavy-duty blenders, but unfortunately they do not come with a glass jar.
At this time I cannot recommend this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

plastic bottom

I have bought 2 Oster blenders in the last 2 months. Both of them have the plastic bottom that holds the blade and both of the plastic bottoms have broken. Actually they just crumple into pieces. I have tried to glue it back together but then another section breaks. I guess I should just buy the more expensive brand that doesn't have this section. Trying to find the part to purchase at this time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
