Waring 7314 blender cutter blade.



Fast Shipping from Goodman's
The Warning replacement blade is well made and easy to install. I needed the replacement because I just quite frankly wore the original one out after five years of pretty hard use. Must have made a million smoothies and frozen fruit and ice cubes finely took there toll on the blade tips.

Only complaint (more of a suggestion) is a nice exploded view drawing would be helpful when reassembling the new blade showing the gasket configuration on both sides of the glass jar. So be observant when you take your old one off and of course just reverse the installation order adding the extra gasket on the inside. What extra gasket you say! You get an extra gasket that needs to go on the inside to make up for the new gaskets thinner sizes.

I was able to remove the old blade and install the new one in about 15 minutes and the new blade reminded me why I purchased the Warning Anniversary model to being with - it now works like a new one. The wife is very happy as she really...

Wish it came with instructions
The blade is a replacement for my Waring 50th Anniversary Edition blender. The only thing that really bothers me is that it doesn't have any instructions on how it should be assembled into the blender cup. If you by a replacement blade, make sure to pay very close attention to how the previous blade and all of its seals are connected. It didn't help that this new blade came with an additional gasket seal in the assembly to account for the thinner rubber used in the new blade's gaskets. A few rounds of trial and error were necessary to make sure that the assembly didn't leak and didn't wear against itself while spinning.

Last set lasted through ~3,500 smooties!
This blade requires a socket wrench with at least a 6" extension to install. The first one I had lasted more than ten years (~3,500 smoothies), when the blade finally snapped off. This is actually a replacement for one installed on a new caraffe that I bought with a new blender a year ago. The new one didn't work properly when received (there was a problem with the washer configuration)....when blending anything hard, the blade would tighten, and I practically burned out the new motor). This new blade assembly solved the problem!
