Well, there are many appliances that we broke in our life, but here I would like to talk about appliance which is none other than kitchen blender. I use this blender on every day as it was quite useful for me to make my smoothies on the regular basis. I make smoothies with this appliance and blend some frozen fruits and banana as well as with that. In addition to this, one day I was using this for making my smoothie and it suddenly stopped working. I was very frustrated at the first time that why it was not working and then I tried to turn it off and then started again, but it didn’t start again. I thought it was from a long time and it didn’t get maintenance done, so might be it’s because of that, but when I tried to turn it on again and again, it was not working. Then I thought I have to replace that with a new one. Then after some time, I got an idea that it might be repaired. I took this to an electronic shop and there I told them that it’s not working and he checked it properly and then he told me that it’s not working because of a small part inside. So it’s loose and he fixed it with a new one and then he got it repaired and I felt extremely happy because he repaired it in a really affordable cost. I was extremely happy and satisfied because this is a kitchen blender that is really close to my heart as it is given by my grandmother on my birthday as she knows that I love making smoothies. So this was an appliance that was broken in my home and then I got it repaired from my neighbor shop.

Well, there are many appliances that we have broken in our lives, but here I would like to talk about an appliance which is none other than the kitchen blender. I use this blender every day as it is quite useful for me to make my smoothies on a regular basis. I make smoothies with this appliance and blend some frozen fruits and bananas as well. One day, I was using it to make my smoothie when it suddenly stopped working. I was very frustrated at first, wondering why it was not working. I tried to turn it off and then started it again, but it didn't start. I thought it might be because I hadn't done maintenance on it for a long time, but when I tried to turn it on again and again, it still wasn't working. Then I thought I would have to replace it with a new one. After some time, I got the idea that it might be repairable. I took it to an electronics shop and told them that it wasn't working. They checked it properly and informed me that it wasn't working because of a small part inside that was loose. They fixed it with a new part, and then they repaired it. I felt extremely happy because they repaired it at a really affordable cost. I was very satisfied because this kitchen blender is really close to my heart, as it was given to me by my grandmother on my birthday, knowing that I love making smoothies. So, this was an appliance that was broken in my home and then I got it repaired at my neighbor's shop.
