OsterOriginal 3 Speed Chrome Blender, 6 Times more Durable Motor, 10 Times Stronger, 5 Cup Glass Jar

I was skeptical when I first bought this blender. I was worried about it only having three speeds. I am used to a whole bunch of speeds that I don't use. I have purchased oyster blenders now for the last 20 years. I would love one of those fancy high speed blenders but they're all made of plastic. Not very many good options for someone who wants glass pitchers. Anyway I was right in the process of making peanut butter when my old blender broke. So when I started using this blender for the very first time it was with the peanut butter. I started having my doubts (although it did blend with some force of me pushing one side of nuts down). I have had no problem whatsoever when I have made my smoothies. I'm not sure what's going on with other reviewers blenders? that they complained about it. Maybe they're used to one of these fancy high-speed blenders. Works fine for me and I'm happy with it.

I needed a replacement for the Oster blender I inherited. After 60+ years of perfection the old machine was whining. I researched, and found Oster made a blender that looked similar. (See photo) The new one works like a charm, no learning curve involved. Quieter than the old one, very happy with its performance. Price good, performance excellent, and arrived timely and well-packaged. Old blender on left with white base,new on right chrome. Looking forward to another few decades of use.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Wow! No wonder this blender is still being made. It is amazing! I had a Kitchen Aid that cost me two and a half times more and this does a better job. I love the three power levels and that is all you need! It's a workhouse and it is worth every penny. It is funny it is the one I grew up with over 60 years ago! I love that it is a glass blender with a metal blade. The blender jar is a good size, but smaller than my Kitchen Aid. No biggie I can do two batches for extra large recipes, but for the most part capacity is enough for most jobs.

Not what I would consider heavy duty. We use frozen fruit in our morning smoothies and have had to resort to thawing the fruit prior to throwing it into the blender.

Esta nueva y en perfectas condiciones muchas gracias

I rarely leave product reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with this one. I've been a loyal customer of this brand for years, and this particular blender model had been a favorite in our household. Unfortunately, it didn’t even last a month. After just a few uses, it suddenly stopped working. I also noticed issues like leaking and a noticeably weak motor. Really disappointing, especially given our past positive experiences with the brand. Such a bummer.

It does the job!

Very pleased with this blender, no fooling around, gets the job done quickly. Easy to clean, functions very well.
