Oster 12-Speed Blender - 6802 Review

We bought this as a temporary replacement until my wife could decide on whether she would like a food processor, juicer..etc.

I should have known that might take a while and spent a little more money on our temp blender. This blender does not blend uniformly, refuses to start up at times and is downright scary. Even when you hold it down it moves sideways...all over the place!!! 

On a positive note, it comes apart rather easily for cleaning and is plastic instead of glass so it doesn't weigh as much as our old one.  I've dropped it, personally, several times and gave thanks that it wasn't made of glass.

  As a whole, I wish we would have opted for something a little more substantial. If you only use it occasionally, I'm sure this will work just fine but we have our granddaughter here for the summer and she loves smoothies. It just can't hold up to that kind of use ( or, rather, abuse).
