Oster BLSTMP-A15 8-Speed 6-Cup Blender, Kiwi



Love this guy
I purchased this blender about 2 weeks ago and absolutely love it. The color is exactly as pictured, which makes it quite pretty on my counter. (I moved about a year ago and have finally decided to do the kitchen in yellow and turquoise, this teal is actually more of a turquoise.)

I've used this blender every day since I got it. I have a nightly smoothie, which is why I wanted a blender in the first place. This has entirely eliminated my nightly ice cream, saved me calories and carbs, and is helping me to eat healthier.

The blender is an Oster - the name says it all. Oster blenders are the best, and this little guy is no exception. I was a little concerned that by purchasing a less expensive model I would sacrifice some quality, but that was a needless worry. The container is high impact plastic which makes it lighter weight, this is good if you have a hard time lifting things (a problem for me sometimes when my arthritis flares). The wonderful "wave"...

Great blender! especially for the price!
This is a great blender! the pricepoint made me somewhat leery, bot Oster has great reviews so I decided to try it. I am quite happy with this purchase. I make smoothies twice a day, and this oster powers through like a champ.

example: yesterday I blended a half a papaya, 3 large bananas, a half cup of blueberries, a half a mango, and a half a cup of ice. Just threw it all in, hit the smoothie setting, and let it run for about a minute.

thus, far there are no cons to this. I'm not sure why other reviewers were unhappy with the lack of a lock. the jar sits nicely in the base and there are guards that actually do hold it in place when in operation.

in closing, if you're looking for something under $50, get this blender.

Oh and I have yet to smell the burning smell you get from some blenders, except when I failed to put adequate liquid in the smoothie and it was running with no resistance. but that's my fault.

Best Budget Blender!
As a college student, I am on a tight budget. I've bought cheap kitchen appliances before and have been disappointed. For under 30 dollars, you can not beat this blender. I mainly use it for smoothies/margaritas and it cuts through ice like a champ. I've only had it a few weeks, so I will see how it holds up, but for now I'm so happy with it. It comes in fun and exciting colors, I bought teal and get compliments from all my guests. It's easy enough to clean, and the cap of the top works as a measuring cup, which is a nice touch. Highly recommend this product.
