First, let me respond to a few poor reviews that made me a little concerned about purchasing this blender. One reviewer said "The little plastic "plug" in the lid fell through into the blender as I was using it". He may have gotten a defective one, but the one that I got would have no realistic way for the plastic "plug" to fall through the hole in the lid. It is very well made and would have to be forced VERY HARD for it to even have a chance of making it through - regardless of the angle at which you put the plug. Another reviewer said "the one I received had a jar that did not sit comfortably on base." Again, if that happened I hate it for that guy. The jar I got sat on the base quite well. Another reviewer said, "You CANNOT get your goods back out of this thing without making a mess." The blender I got is very easy to pour from.
Now let me tell you how awesome this thing is. I had a Hamilton Beach blender for a few years that did okay. It would make smoothies and shakes, but would take quite a while and would ALWAYS leave chunks of ice that did not get blended. Even if I left it on for a full minute it would not get the job done. When I used this new Oster 6684 for the first time I made a shake the way that I normally do with some fruit, milk, and ice. After about 10 seconds I could not find a single chuck of ice in the entire shake. In two years with my old blender there were always chunks of ice - always. I could not be any happier with the Oster. Hope this is helpful. |
Really good blender!

This is my first blender, and I'm sure there are many other good blenders out there. However I would love to explain why I chose this particulare one and why I love it so much.
It's simple to use, easy to take apart for cleaning, although the base is plastic it is very strong and the gear for the blade in the base is metal unlike the higher end more expensive models which use a plastic or nylon gear. And still, the base is not flimsy and something that can easily break. It really is designed very well with a nice weight to stay put on your counter when blending. It won't be tipping over.
Actually, I would prefer the base made how Oster did this with the plastic/nylon instead of metal, keeping the cost way down instead of $90 to $100 just to have an all metal base.
When I got my Oster 12-speed Blender, trying it out I really liked seeing how powerful the motor is. Actually alot more powerful then I expected for what I paid for it.
Also I really love the fact that the jar itself is actual glass and not some plastic. With a nice heavy weight to it.
I can really see this blender lasting a very long time. Excellent design and construction. Powerful motor. Easy cleaning. Big enough to get the job done but not to big to take up alot of counter space. Metal gear to last a long time. Actual thick glass jar. And priced unbelievably low.
Enjoy! |

| I like this blender. So far I haven't had any problems. It's very easy to clean. I like the glass jar. The only downside to this product is that it's very noisy, but it does get the job done! |
Wonderful blender!

| At last!!! A blender that works well, easy to care for and easy to use. It is not very noisy, does the job and I am delighted! I have had other blenders, and this one is far superior. I love it and thank you to Amazon for making it possible for us to purchase it at a more than affordable price. I would give it ************! |
Powerful Blender for Price

| I just purchased this blender and am thrilled with the quality. It does a great job of making frozen smoothies and leaves no chunks of ice or fruit. I definitely recommend this blender. |
