Oster 6684 12-Speed Blender Review (B0006ABOCW)
The Oster 6684 12-Speed Blender is a black 450-watt countertop blender that can mix frozen drinks, soup, and smoothies.
The blades and motor is tough enough to crush and then liquefy ice and other hard ingredients. The unit carries with it a reputable name in blender technology and is known to produce some of the best made and most durable blenders in the market for several years.
The unit comes with an easy toggle speed control and provides continuous blending in a dozen speeds. It has an all-metal drive system, a stainless-steel ice crushing blade and a pulse action switch. It is dishwasher safe and has a five-cup glass cylinder with a huge handle for easy grip. The lid also serves as a measuring cup.
The Oster 6684 measures approximately 7” x 11” x 15” and has a one-year limited warranty. The unit weighs about 8 pounds. It’s not only good for the home but is also ideal for restaurants, bars and businesses that sell drinks prepared in blenders because of the blade’s long life and the motor’s durability. Other blenders wouldn’t last a month if used several times a day. Oster blenders do last a long time.
Pros
Many users say that this is the most awesome blender they have ever owned. It is practically maintenance free and will serve you many years to come. It is simple to use and take apart for thorough cleaning, according to many people who own the Oster 6684 12-Speed Blender.
Users who are concerned about the unit being durable and sturdy like the black metal base it comes with. Other blenders are made of plastic, including the base. The container where the mixture is mixed is also made of very thick glass instead of cheap plastic. It looks not just sturdy and durable but also classy, according to some users.
Several people who own this blender say that it can crush or liquefy practically anything and is great for making smoothies aside from just being a blender. Business owners who use it for their restaurants and bars, love it because it won’t break down after on a couple of weeks which often happen to other blenders.
Cons
A few users have said that they prefer a lighter base made of plastic to bring down the cost of the unit. For some people a plastic base would make it lighter to carry. Some users also mentioned in their reviews, that the unit can get a bit noisy. Other say that they find the Oster 6684 12-Speed Blender a little expensive for a home blender.
A few people have been hurt and cut by the Oyster’s extremely sharp blades so they caution people to be very careful when cleaning the unit. Others have said that a ring at the bottom made of plastic smells like it burns when the machine is in use.
Despite a few negative feedback, more people love this blender for what it can do. It can make pitcher after pitcher of margaritas with whole ice cubes crushed and liquefied into tiny, tiny bits. You won’t find chunks of ice or fruit with the Oster 6684 after it does its job. The price is worth it considering it will last several years before you would have to replace the blades or parts. This blender will not let you down in a middle of a margarita party.
