Maybe I'm just ridiculously clutzy but I manageg to cut a finger on each hand getting that super sharp replacement blade out of the packaging from hell...designed to protect the blade but nearly impossible to get the blade out of it!

Ouch!   But thanks for warning us all.

Yes, the replacement is like a Size 10 foot in a Size 8 shoe.  Then they SAY to repack the old foot in the same shoe for return/disposal; I think Conair's just trying to save return shipping charges.  Worked with me.

Strange...  My replacement blade arrived today, and it's different from yours-- mine seems to have the steel blades completely bedded in the plastic hub.

 

Mine's marked: "Cuisinart DLC-7 Metal Blade DLC-001BIA"

Mine showed up today.  I have a 14 cup model.  The blade is marked DLC 001BIB.  It looks like Rotus's.  I suspect they've got different factories making them, with different designs.  Incidentally, I never got any confimation that they'd received my replacement request, until the blade showed up.  j

Sooo Sharp!

 

maybe your confirmation , as mine did went into a SPAM File ?

 Not unless it failed to include the string 'cuisinart' in it.  I did check, before submitting another request, using my work contact details.  That got an email pretty much instantly.

Costco, as always, is a class act. I got a snail mail notification concerning this the day after I submitted my claim. This thread notified me ahead of Costco but I don't fault them for that.

Has everyone gotten their replacement blade?  I haven't yet.

Ha ha!  We only got our acknowledgement about a week ago.   Things move especially slowly in the frozen north.

I think that the Folks that asked for their new blade

 

after their the C's stocks of the replacement blade had been depleted  

 

might take an unknown time to get

 

I have my Blade1  delivered to me Toot Sweet

 

I asked about a second blade I had, and got an email from them 

 

so some later request are Cooking ?

 

keep your initial Emal

 

as I have

I got my confirmation email on 12/22 - no blade yet.

I made two claims; one on 14 DEC, which I didn't get an email confirmation for, another on 22 DEC, which I did.  I got the first blade on 4 JAN.  I have not received the other.  (they're going to entirely different addresses, so I'm sure that's the one I got.)  I'm sure they've exhausted their initial supply of replacements and are waiting on the factories (or the ships).
