BlendJet blenders class action lawsuit overview:
- Who: Luisset Figueroa and Jean Joseph filed a class action lawsuit against BlendJet Inc.
- Why: Figueroa and Joseph claim BlendJet manufactured and sold BlendJet2 blenders that break or otherwise stop working within a short period of time.
- Where: The class action lawsuit was filed in New York federal court.
BlendJet manufactured and sold BlendJet2 blenders with a defect that causes the device to break or otherwise stop working within a short period of time, a new class action lawsuit alleges.
Plaintiff Luisset Figueroa and Jean Joseph claim BlendJet, by virtue of the amount of complaints made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, is aware of the alleged defect with its BlendJet2 blenders, yet continues to market them in a positive manner.
“Unbeknownst to consumers, however, Defendant’s Product systematically fails to meet its advertised functions, including, but not limited, to, “crushing ice” or any other solid food item,” the BlendJet class action states.
Figueroa and Joseph want to represent a nationwide class and New York subclass of persons who, during the maximum period of time permitted by law, purchased a BlendJet2 blender for personal, family or household purposes.
‘Shoddy manufacturing’ to blame for allegedly defective BlendJet2 blenders, class action says
Figueroa and Joseph claim the alleged defect with the BlendJet2 blenders is due to “common conduct and shoddy manufacturing” on behalf of BlendJet.
“Defendant’s misleading and deceptive practices proximately caused harm to Plaintiff and the proposed class members who suffered an injury in fact and lost money or property as a result of Defendant’s deceptive conduct,” the BlendJet class action states.
Figueroa and Joseph claim BlendJet is guilty of breach of express and implied warranties, and of violating state consumer protection statutes and New York General Business Law.
The plaintiffs are demanding a jury trial and requesting an award of compensatory, statutory and punitive damages for themselves and all class members.
In another case involving blenders, Nutribullet agreed to pay $10 million in May 2022 to resolve claims that some of its blenders are prone to overheating.

100 thoughts onBlendJet class action claims portable blenders cause fires, explosions
I bought five blendjets and some to give as gifts but 3 blenders where on the recalll list and I been waiting for 2 years for a replacements items here in the Uk and now I found Blendjet gone bust :-( not happy
I also was told to destroy my blenjet and then never recieved a replacement. I followed up with them several times with no information of value. I dont think its right that they continue to sell new blenders but ignored all their customers who ALREADY paid for this product and was told to destroy with a promise of a replacement. It looks like they are out of business now..
I received the Blend Jet notice to bend the blades and cut the gasket, and I was asked to send them pictures. This was over two years ago, and although I’ve contacted them because I’ve not received my replacement, they told me that demand is overwhelming and I’ll eventually get my replacement. At this point, I just want a full refund. Please notify me if a class action suit develops.
I also sent my blender back because of recall 2 years ago. I contacted them at least 6 times and they just said they were waiting on materials from China. I asked how they were able to sell new ones without making good on the recall and they tried to tell me it was a different division. I
I have several BlendJet2’s – has this lawsuit been settled and closed?
I did what blend jets recall instructions and cut the gasket as they required, sent a photo of the base of the unit & the cut gasket. That was in December 2023. I’ve sent several emails. They continue to apologize and assure me that the demand is overwhelming but they will take care of me soon. I am still waiting for my replacement.
