WOW! Shockingly Useless!
I purchased this recently at another retailer since I have been making large quantities of fruit smoothies for my family and have found my food processor to be less effective than I would like. The large capacity glass jar appealed to me, and I thought that the idea of designing the jar to fit in the refrigerator was quite clever. I thought the base of the blender looked stable. All of this may be true, but it is all irrelevant since I discovered upon using it that the blender is absolutely ineffective. I layered soft fruits in the bottom of the blender (fresh bananas, melon, and nectarine) then added some frozen mango chunks on top. I pressed the "drinks" button. I tried again. I pressed all of the buttons. I removed most of the frozen mango. I stirred and mashed with my spatula (with the blender off). The spatula was more effective at blending the soft fruit than this blender. I can't attest to other Oster products, but this blender is poorly designed. I will be...
Big Disappointment
Always had Oster Blenders and I was expecting this model to be great;
Problems: Too heavy; the cup doesn't fit snugly to the base; the high speed is weak; doesn't blend anything all the way (not even tomato sauce).
The Non-Blending Blender
I struggled with this blender. I have never owned a blender that pauses as it crushes ice. It seemed right when it started to crush then it paused. It never seem to get really get going. I felt it was very loud. I too got out a spoon and mixed up the ingredients of my smoothie. I will be returning this item. I really like the design but not its functionality. :(
