Customer Reviews

Another one Bites the Dust
I bought my first Oster beehive blender around August 2002 and I loved it from the start, but after about 4 months, the rubber piece that holds the drive shaft snapped in two. Thinking this was a fluke, I bought another beehive blender since it had performed so well before breaking (I use it nearly every day to crush ice for smoothies). And now, 4 months later, the second one broke the same way. This is obviously not a fluke.

Oster Classic is just that
This blender is excellent. It crushes ice very well & has an all-metal drive. 2 speeds is just enough. We compared it to very expensive models and it won us over with the cool retro beehive look from the 50s. We like the glass container too. It sits securely in place when blending. This model also made excellent all-fruit drink by blending ice cubes, juice, chunks of apple, orange, and pineapple and it worked just perfectly.

Tip for ice crushers: nuke cubes for 10-15 seconds & pour on top of liquid in the carafe. You will get perfect drinks every time in this blender.

We like the professional results like the professional models at a very affordable price. Can't beat it. We would recommend it to anyone.

Power and simplicity
After burning out the motors of 2 previous, less expensive blenders, not to mention constantly cleaning the goop out of the plethora of pushbuttons, I rushed out to Target and picked this one up for just a few more bucks. It blends ice and everything else in a fraction of the time, and at the turn of a single switch. Once again, it's a pleasure to make a smoothie.
