Oster, Forever!
I love Oster! Ever since I am wee kid, my mum would use this to make smoothies and to make sure her soup is nice and smooth. I now use the sleek model and it still performs as well, and still as noisy as before :) that's the only thing I have to remind myself, that I have to ensure that I use this blender before the baby gets a snooze or it will really make him jump when I turn it on. Lol!
