Waring Commercial WSB70ST, 21-Inch Stainless Steel Immersion Blender Shaft, Black/Silver. This is a replacement part/shaft only

I purchased this item and used it one time and noticed it was defective. Because it was past the 30 day return window Amazon would not allow for a return or replacement. KaTom referred me to Waring for a replacement and I called them. They explained that they do not cover parts at all! This is the second shaft I have had that had problems. I highly suggest finding a better brand. Waring will not cover their product!
