Oster Classic Series 16 Speed Blender with Food Chopper and Glass Jar Brushed Nickel

I am really happy with this blender.. it is much lighter weight than my Vitamix, and for what i am using it for, it works just as well. It came with the food processor attachment, so I only need one appliance for both jobs.And since this blender blade works with a mason jar, I can also use it for blending right in the jar, for things like salad dressing, that I want to blend and then store in the jar.I ordered a second blending cap, so now i do not have to disassemble the blender base to use the mason jar to blend.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Because of the Brand and because of the glass container. I just made a smoothie and the blender worked smoothly and quietly. Grinds up the dates in my smoothie better than a NutraBullet. I am well pleased with my new Oster Blender.

Seems good since my mom wanted something similar to the old school blenders that lasted.

Reliable and durable

The media could not be loaded. Blender arrived but it’s not the standard size of a normal blender. It’s made out of plastic that smells like it’s melting after using for 2-3 minutes. The bland is really small and soft raw fruit doesn’t blend up. It’s a waste of money don’t buy! It’s loud as well. This blender is awful! I’ve had for about a month and more issues continue to come up with each use.You need to be careful when attaching the base to the glass cup, it can come undone. We used last night and the smoothie we were making went all over the counter. The various settings are all the same, nothing is different when using the different buttons/settings. The blade is super small and if you are chopping ice or greens for a smoothie it doesn’t blend fully. Don’t try to use carrots in this, even small chopped they never blend. The blending cup size is smaller as I stated before, which has become annoying when making for multiple people. There is so much that is wrong with product.. Don’t buy, find something that actually works and is worth the money you spend buying it.

A buena hora

Bought the Oster Precise Blend 16 with the borosilicate glass (the generic term for Pyrex) blender jar and plastic food processor jar about 4 months ago. It works well as a blender, but the food processor jar is different story.The food processor jar is soft plastic, so anything hard like sugar or salt will scratch and cloud the jar surface, even after one use. The plastic jar lid is secured during operation by latches that engage projections on the jar with a twist. Unfortunately, the latches are not securely attached to the lid, so normal forces cause the latches to shear off the lid (photo shows broken latch at bottom).The worst part is that Oster's warranty coverage does not apply unless there is a code stamped on the blender's power plug prongs or a proof of purchase sticker on the box. My blender came without either, so Oster would not replace the broken lid.Amazon would not replace the broken part either, but did offer a $20 credit for my trouble. It's better than nothing, but leaves the question of what to do when I need a food processor. This experience has been very frustrating because an otherwise fully functional device that could be easily repaired remains broken.Ideally, the food processor jar would have been made of a sturdier material and better designed, and Oster's warranty coverage would have been consistent with their manufacturing/packaging practices. While the blender works well and would get a 5 star rating as a standalone product, it is only half of what I paid for, so 3 stars feels appropriate.
