Your country needs consumer laws. If something craps out like that within a reasonable timeframe for the thing to last you get a refund or replacement. Generally people expect a blender to last for more than a year or two, you'd get your money back after 8 months here easy.

Same goes for whiteware that's expected to last more than 5 generally.

Shops still somehow sell extended warranties though. Crooks.
