I broke my 45 year old Oster when I dropped the bowl, and could no longer replace it.
I ended up with a KitchenAid, which would be perfect if it had a glass bowl. I too much prefer glass, but I gave up trying to find a decent quality blender with one (that was even somewhat affordable).
FWIW, having never bought a blender before, I was in sticker shock when I went shopping. I looked for about 6 months before collecting enough coupons to take the plunge.
