Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oster 6684 12-Speed Blender, Black
Customer Review: It blends. Period.
Summary: 5 Stars
It's a blender. It blends stuff. Just read the F manual and you won't break it. It blends ice, fruit, and milk smoothly and flawlessly. I get smoothies done in less than 15 seconds. Just make sure to follow the cleaning instructions and stay on top of it, or you'll be sorry.
I like the many options as far as blend speed is concerned. Cool design, too, and the glass (vs. plastic) jug is a huge plus.
Customer Review: It's 5 o'clock somewhere!
Summary: 3 Stars
Bought as gift for someone I know. She does a lot of research on things before she decides which one she likes best, and this is the one she wanted. The only thing that would have made this one better is if it had a pour spout for frozen drinks and such. The price was a little high(41+shipping):^(, do your diligence, there are some of the same out there for less. I just hope it lasts for her, and if it doesn't I'll keep everyone informed. Anyhow margarita time.Customer Review: Judy

This blender is very flimsy, I honestly don't expect it to last very long. It will blend a smoothy OK, but the buttons are wobbly and the top and bottom or very thin. I'm disappointed. I'm going to have to return this one and order some thing else.Customer Review: Look no further. This blender is AWESOME!
Summary: 5 Stars
First, let me respond to a few poor reviews that made me a little concerned about purchasing this blender. One reviewer said "The little plastic "plug" in the lid fell through into the blender as I was using it". He may have gotten a defective one, but the one that I got would have no realistic way for the plastic "plug" to fall through the hole in the lid. It is very well made and would have to be forced VERY HARD for it to even have a chance of making it through - regardless of the angle at which you put the plug. Another reviewer said "the one I received had a jar that did not sit comfortably on base." Again, if that happened I hate it for that guy. The jar I got sat on the base quite well. Another reviewer said, "You CANNOT get your goods back out of this thing without making a mess." The blender I got is very easy to pour from.
Now let me tell you how awesome this thing is. I had a Hamilton Beach blender for a few years that did okay. It would make smoothies and shakes, but would take quite a while and would ALWAYS leave chunks of ice that did not get blended. Even if I left it on for a full minute it would not get the job done. When I used this new Oster 6684 for the first time I made a shake the way that I normally do with some fruit, milk, and ice. After about 10 seconds I could not find a single chuck of ice in the entire shake. In two years with my old blender there were always chunks of ice - always. I could not be any happier with the Oster. Hope this is helpful.
Customer Review: Loud, but effective!
Summary: 4 Stars
While this product IS indeed loud, (can you blame it?) it is an excellent, well-made blender. It whips up a nice smoothie, easily handles ice, and is easy to clean. Perhaps I am too cynical, but I cannot imagine what else a good blender would do.. . .can you?
