 blender delight October 20, 2007
Health Maven (Louisville, Ky)
I had had my previous Osterizer for about 40 years and although it was still working, it was not up to snuff so I bought the classic blue and wow, is it great! I'm so glad I bought it. It makes super smoothies. I use it for protein shakes and add fruits, peanut butter and ice cubes and the blender chops up everything into a super smooth, creamy drink. Great blender, plus it looks great on the counter!

While this blender does indeed provide a retro-chic counter hit for that particular aesthetic, and it does indeed puree very very well for the price, the noise it creates while blending is unbearable. I've taken to wearing ear protectors and warning anyone else in the room before I turn it on. Having used it now for a few months, I don't feel right returning it on this basis, but I just ordered another blender with a much quieter decibel review, and I'll be donating the Oster to charity.
I have found the ideal blender! December 24, 2003

My kitchenaid ultra-something blender died on me after 3 years of spotty usage. I bought this blender (the copper version actually) from overstock because of the good ratings it had on some other site. This blender is loud but boy, does it blend & grind! The blade is extremely sharp and this blender makes quick work of things that used to take me 15 minutes - half-an-hour to grind (like soaked rice) on the kitchenaid. The nice thing also is that the blade reaches further down and mixes up the contents pretty well. Another hugely important thing is that whereas the kitchenaid would struggle and heat up during operation and had to be rested periodically so the contents would not heat up also, this blender effectively separates the jar thermally from the base. Your food won't get cooked even as it's blended. The base hardly warmed up, however. The 500 W power is more efficiently used compared to the 600 W of the kitchenaid.
It's very simple to operate with no bells and whistles. The degree of blending/grinding is directly related to the duration so you don't have multiple buttons and lights to deal with.
One negative is that the warranty is still only a year. Wish it were longer. I just got this & hope it lasts.
 Not worth the money November 25, 2003

I've had this blender for about 2 years and I'm not too pleased. The thread is gone and the pitcher keeps wobbling on the base. It's good for smoothies and real soft food, but don't ask it to blend much else. It only has 2 speeds, it's heavy and a pain to clean. Don't let the looks and price deceive you. It's not worth the money.
