Can I put my KitchenAid blender in the dishwasher?
Yes. For the KitchenAid KSB1332BM0 blender, the Personal jar, Small batch jar, lids, blade assembly, and lid center cap are dishwasher-safe on the top rack, and the main blender jar can be cleaned on the bottom rack. See the cleaning section in the KSB1332BM0 owner's manual.
What can go in the dishwasher (and where)
- Personal jar: top rack
- Small batch jar: top rack
- Lids: top rack
- Blade assembly: top rack
- Lid center cap: top rack
- Blender jar: bottom rack
Quick placement guide
| Item | Dishwasher rack | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Blender jar | Bottom | More room, stronger spray |
| Blade assembly | Top | Helps protect edges and finish |
| Lids and center cap | Top | Reduces warping risk |
What we recommend you do before washing
- Empty the jar completely and rinse out thick residue.
- Separate removable pieces (lid, center cap, blade assembly) so water can reach all surfaces.
- Place small parts securely so they do not flip and trap water.
- Let parts dry fully before reassembling to prevent odors.
Easy hand-clean option (fast daily cleaning)
If you prefer not to run the dishwasher, fill the jar about halfway with warm water, add 1 to 2 drops of dish soap, secure the lid, then run at speed 3 for about 15 to 20 seconds. Empty and rinse.
Why it matters
Correct rack placement helps prevent warping, protects the blade assembly, and keeps seals and plastic parts fitting properly so your blender runs smoothly and leaks less over time.

How to disassemble a KitchenAid blender blade?
To disassemble the blade on your KitchenAid KSB1332BM0 blender, unplug the blender first, remove the jar from the base, then separate the blade assembly from the jar by turning it counterclockwise. Handle the blade carefully; the edges are sharp.
Safety first (do this every time)
- Turn the control dial to (O) and wait for the blade to fully stop.
- Unplug the blender before removing the jar or touching the blade area.
- Wear cut-resistant gloves or use a thick towel for grip.
- Work over a towel on a stable counter to prevent slipping.
- Keep small parts (seals, rings, caps) together so reassembly is correct.
Typical disassembly steps (jar-style blade assembly)
- Remove the blender jar and lid.
- Turn the jar upside down.
- Unscrew the blade assembly from the bottom of the jar (most assemblies loosen counterclockwise).
- Lift off the blade assembly and set it aside.
- Separate any gasket or sealing ring only if you are replacing it or deep-cleaning.
If your KSB1332BM0 uses a personal jar or small batch jar, the manual procedure is the same idea: the blade assembly secures to the jar by rotating clockwise to tighten, so you rotate counterclockwise to remove. See the KSB1332BM0 owner’s manual for the exact jar and blade assembly handling steps.
When to replace the blade assembly instead of taking it apart
If the blade is leaking, wobbling, or the bearings feel rough, replacement is the reliable fix.
| Symptom | Most likely cause | Best next step |
|---|---|---|
| Leaks under jar | Worn seal or cracked assembly | Replace the blade assembly |
| Loud grinding | Bearing wear | Replace the blade assembly |
| Poor blending | Dull or damaged blade | Replace the blade assembly |
For a correct-fit replacement, use the model-matched blade assembly W11214646.
Why it matters
Correct blade removal prevents stripped threads, jar damage, and leaks. It also keeps you safe; the manual emphasizes unplugging before removing the jar and waiting for the blender to fully stop.

Where can I find my KitchenAid model reference number?
For your KitchenAid blender model KSB1332BM0, the model reference number is on the appliance identification label on the blender base (not on the jar). We use that exact model number to match the correct parts list, diagrams, and service information.
Where to look on the blender
Check these common label locations on KitchenAid blenders like model KSB1332BM0:
- Under the blender base (flip the unit over and look for a sticker or rating plate)
- On the bottom edge of the base near the rubber feet
- On the underside of the motor housing (near the cord exit)
- Near the power cord entry point on the base
If the label is worn, use a bright light and take a close-up photo; the model number is often printed in small text.
What the model reference number looks like
Your model reference number is the full model number string (letters and numbers). For this unit, it will match the format of KSB1332BM0.
| What you might see | What it means | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Model number (example: KSB1332BM0) | Identifies the exact blender version | Correct parts and diagrams |
| Serial number | Identifies your specific unit | Warranty and service |
For additional label examples and product documentation, use the KSB1332BM0 owner’s manual.
Why it matters
KitchenAid often makes small design changes within a product line. Using the exact model reference number helps us ensure you get the right replacement part the first time, such as a jar assembly, blade assembly, or drive coupling.

Why does my KitchenAid blender leak?
Leaks on a KitchenAid KSB1332BM0 blender almost always come from the jar area: the jar not seated flat on the base, the blade/jar assembly not tightened correctly, or a worn sealing surface that lets liquid escape during blending. Start by cleaning and re-seating the jar and blade assembly.
Most common leak points to check
- Jar-to-blade area: residue on sealing surfaces can create a drip path.
- Blade assembly: cross-threading or uneven tightening can cause seepage.
- Overfilling: blending above the max fill line can force liquid out.
- Hot liquids: steam pressure can push liquid past seals if the lid venting is blocked.
- Cracks or chips: inspect the jar closely, especially near the bottom.
Quick fix steps (safe, no tools)
- Unplug the blender.
- Remove the jar and empty it.
- Disassemble the jar and blade assembly as shown in the KSB1332BM0 owner’s manual.
- Wash and rinse all mating surfaces; remove any pulp, seeds, or sticky residue.
- Reassemble and tighten evenly (snug, not forced).
- Test with water for 10 to 15 seconds before blending food again.
When a part is likely needed
If cleaning and re-seating does not stop the leak, the jar or blade assembly is typically the next suspect.
| Symptom | Most likely cause | What to do next |
|---|---|---|
| Drips from under the jar while running | Jar or blade assembly sealing surface worn | Inspect and replace the jar or blade assembly if damaged |
| Leak only when jar vibrates | Jar not seated flat, jar pad worn/missing | Re-seat jar; inspect jar base contact surfaces |
| Leak appears as a crack line | Jar damage | Replace the jar |
Model-matched parts we commonly see involved in jar leaks include the blade assembly W11214646 and a complete jar assembly W11425705.
Why it matters
A leak can let liquid reach the base, which can cause slipping, messy operation, and premature wear on drive components. Fixing the seal early helps protect the motor and electronic control.
