Overview
Oster builds this countertop blender around a glass jar and an all-metal drive, with a separate food chopper jar that spins on the same base. Push buttons step through the speed range from pulse to puree, and the lid has a removable filler cap for adding liquid while the motor runs.
A glass jar and a metal-to-metal drive connection are the reasons to buy, along with a chopper jar that covers small prep jobs without a second appliance. Push-button speed selection means many settings but no dial, and the listed wattage conflicts between the description and the spec sheet.
Who it's for
A countertop with room for a full-size blender and a chopper jar that share one base. Cooks who blend fruit, soups and sauces a few times a week get the glass jar and the chopper in one purchase. Shoppers who want a single-serve cup or a quiet motor should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Glass jar goes in the dishwasher
- Chopper jar with stainless S-blade included
- All-metal drive connection
- Filler cap doubles as a measure
- Wattage differs between description and spec sheet
- Warranty term differs between bullets and spec sheet
- Push buttons only, no dial
- Color listed as black, title says brushed nickel
Performance notes
Blending result depends on the metal drive coupling transferring motor torque to the blade without slipping, and on the glass jar shape pulling ingredients down into the blade path. The stepped push-button speeds let you start slow to break up chunks before moving to puree. The chopper jar works with a short S-blade, so it handles small prep batches but not full-jar volumes.
