Replacement
Parts Magic Bullet cross blade and power base
The blender
bullet is a great addition to the kitchen but unfortunately
it sometimes suffers from a broken cross blade or plastic
gear in the power base. It seems that not all the magic bullet
parts are built to last. If this happened to you, there are
several options to get your blender bullet working again.
Warranty
If you
purchased the original blender bullet less than a year ago,
your device should be under manufacturer's warranty and you
should be able to get replacement bullet parts or a new unit.
If you are one of the lucky ones, contact Homeland Housewares
at 1-866-4HOMELAND (866-446-6352), their customer service
is available Monday through Friday from 9am to 8pm, from 9am
to 4pm on Saturdays and from 10am to 4pm on Sundays, Eastern
Time.
Just be
aware that you need proof of purchase from them directly or
otherwise they'll ask you to prove that your blender bullet
is an original version manufactured by Homeland Housewares
since there are fake devices in the market (our blender
bullet discounts section helps you spot a fake version).
This is what they are going to request from you:
"Please
send us a copy of the following pages from your 10-Second
Recipe book and User guide as follows: 10-Second Recipe book
(open to back pages showing the 1-year limited Warranty) 10-Second
Recipe book (front cover) 10-Second Recipe book (back cover)
We also require that you send pictures of your main base.
Please include the following pictures below: Magic Bullet
Power Base (back showing the vent holes) Magic Bullet Power
Base (back showing the label and any serial numbers) Magic

Purchase
Replacement Parts
You can
purchase magic bullet parts like cross blades and a new power
base directly from the manufacturer as long as you have proof
of purchase from Homeland Housewares directly or if you prove
that your blender bullet is the original by submitting the
pictures detailed above.
Users
have reported that the manufacturer sells the magic bullet
power base for $19.98 (S&H included) and the magic bullet
cross blade for $8.98.
If you
don't have proof of purchase and you don't want to waste your
time submitting the pictures or if you don't have the original
blender bullet and the manufacturer doesn't want to sell you
magic bullet parts like a magic bullet cross blade you may
want to consider buying them on eBay. You can often find the
magic bullet cross blade for less than $10 including shipping.
If you need other magic bullet parts you can also find them
there.
Sacrifice
one magic bullet cross blade and fix it yourself
If the
problem you have is with the plastic gear in the power base,
you can fix it by removing the gear from one of the cross
blades and use it as a replacement for the gear on the power
base. Several users have tried this and has worked. This is
probably the fastest and cheapest solution if you don't mind
sacrificing one cross blade and testing your manual skills.
