We bought a KitchenAid around 8 years ago, and the
clutch coupler failed on it recently, and lo' and behold, the part is
no longer available. The blender's in perfect condition otherwise,
now it's off to the trash because of the unavailability of the part.

I had a KitchenAid that died and the model had changed and parts were no
longer available. So they sold me a new refurbished model for a very
reasonable amount.
