 Oster 6684 12 -Speed blender June 29, 2008
K. Myshkin (United States)
After lengthy comparison shopping, this blender was not only the least expensive, but had the toughness and durability needed to make smoothies with tons of ice. More expensive models had plastic blade components, this one is steel and really does the job nicely. I've owned professional grade blenders that cost a fortune and did not work as well.

I have an older Oster 10 speed that looks like this one but it runs much quieter. I bought this one because the plastic blender jar was cracking pretty bad on my old one. So now I use the glass jar on my old base and it works fine. Also, you may wish to look closely at the buttons on this black model - they are very green!

I am happy with the ease of use this provides for me. It does well with ice and frozen fruit. I recommend this to anyone.

I had the same Oster for over 30 years which performed great until recently when it began to smell like plastic burning, so I decided it needed replacing and bought a new Oster because my old one was perfect.
First, I was very disappointed when I opened the box and saw turquoise buttons on the front. I did not notice the color of the buttons when ordering and just assumed they would be chrome like my previous blender. The color clashes with my kitchen decor and what is even worse, the speed labels are difficult to read in the turquoise on black.
Second, my old Oster blender had a button you chose for speed and then an on/off switch that I liked better than pushing the speed button and it starts immediately and then needing to push another button to turn it off.
Third, the jar does not sit firmly in the bowl and feels wobbly even when it should be locked into place. I read of only one other person who had this problem on the reviews. So, I assume I also received a faulty plastic screw on bottom as my old jar does fit in the blender base.
Third, I like the glass jar which my old Oster also had, but I do not like the wide shape with a curvy top. It makes pouring more difficult and the curvy top makes the lid hard to get on and off quickly. The lid is also a less rigid plastic which makes it harder to manage as well.
Fourth, It is much louder and strange sounding than my old Oster, and since the jar is not seated securely, I fear it will fly off the base.
Fifth, The base is taller and wider than my old Oster and I find it hard to pick up and move around on the counter.
It does seem to blend my smoothie okay, but I would return it except I don't want to pay for shipping it back. As someone said Walmart has the same blender for $29,95.
