I was making the C2G indian base last weekend, blending as usual, it heated up rapidly within a couple of minutes... Lidls were exceedingly helpful even though the box and receipt had been mislaid by my darling wife :

the store advised I call their customer services who very quickly sent a letter with which I am to take back to the shop along with the blender for a full refund
Yesterday I used my stalwart of a jug blender to do g&g paste as I have done many times before and I broke that too (plastic lug at the bottom off the jug sheared off and pinged off every adjacent surface like a ball bearing in a pinball machine), then to cap it all old faithful 120w kenwood hand blender with non-detachable stick got dropped in the sink as I was cleaning it.
I don't think blenders and me are a good mix....
