Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After much deliberation and research, I purchased and received my blender just over a month ago (BN801). I have enjoyed using it daily for for smoothies. I was surprised that the main canister was plastic. I (and most people) use ice, nuts, frozen fruits, and I was worried about how it would hold up. Lo and behold, I realized yesterday that the canister has a series of cracks on the bottom. Pretty upsetting, seeing how expensive the blender is, and how short of a time I've owned it.
