Kitchen & Housewares : Oster Contemporary Classic Beehive Blenders

- Perfect Blender
Tried it out as soon as UPS delivered it and was amazed what it did to the cubed ice I put in it. It blendes like magic! Do not pass this one. Not as loud as people say either.

- Powerful, easy to use, but LOUD
I have now had this blender for a few years and love the simple design...I don't like the newer style of blender that has the big bottom jar going over the base instead of into it, even though that design probably provides more stability.

Two things that make this blender less than perfect that I would like to change are:

This only has two settings but why would you need more? I only use the low setting and have had no problems whatsoever blending my frozen fruit or ice into a perfect smoothie.

I have had this for almost a year and have not had any issues. It looks and feels like a professional quality blender. Highly recommended!

- Very, Very Good...but not perfect
Bought to make morning smoothies. Chops quickly, easy to clean, elegantly simple & attractive, the blender seems to be of very good quality.

Overall, a very good product.
