Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oster Milkshake Blade
Customer Review: Don't waste your money
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this item primarily to mix my fruit smoothies (mixed berries and a banana). I followed the directions but this blade does not blend all of the items very well (like the original blade). I used it twice and put it back in the box where it is now permanently stored. Also, the shipping charge is ridiculous for this small item. The merchant probably paid no more than $2.50 to ship the item but charged over $6.00. Don't waste your money.Customer Review: Fantastic!
Summary: 5 Stars
FAST shipping and the item is perfect. Finally, milkshakes at home like from the soda fountain or ice cream shop. This works MUCH better for milkshakes than the standard "ice" blade. The final product was smooth and as it should be. Very easy to attach and use with my Oster Party Mixer (12 speed). Would highly recommend for milkshakes over standard blade. Not sure it would have any other use, but then again, only bought for shakes.Customer Review: Great blade - so is Goodmans
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've ever seen the tips of the blades on a real milkshake machine, take a close look, they have 2 small circular fluted blades. The lower blade on this looks exactly like it, only larger. That really convinced me that this would be a cheap alternative to buying a real dedicated milkshake machine. It does really work well.
Yes, I made really good milkshakes with the standard blade, but this just makes them even better, more like a real milkshake machine.
As for those that gave this a bad score, I would ask: Aren't most milkshakes made with ice cream and milk?
Yes, you could make a fruit shake, but this is sold specifically as a "milkshake blade", so it's not designed to cut fruit, or ice.
It's designed to mix milk and ice-cream. If you want to make a fruit shake with frozen fruit, then the ice blade that comes with most blenders would work best.
Saw this on Amazon, and normally order everything from Amazon. However, we accidentally destroyed the clear center top of our blender, and Goodmans had the best price on that. Ordering direct from Goodmans got slightly better shipping rates, and then I noticed is was only $1 more shipping to get the milkshake blade. I even added one more rubber ring for only 79 cents, and there was NO extra shipping for that. Their shipping was fast, and they have a 45 liberal return policy.
In case anyone cares, I use this on a Red Oster Classic 2 speed blender, 600 Watts, using the "pulse mode" (it only has pulse and ON as it's 2 modes).
Customer Review: Great item, but not completely necessary...
Summary: 3 Stars
This item works very well. It leaves less froth/foamy surface when you make the drink.
I have been using this to make my protein shakes, which include whey protein powder, milk, and ice cream. Every now and then I will add some fruit or syrup (caramel or chocolate). It blends everything together very well.
I would only say that it is not SUPERB or AMAZING as to the job it can do when making the shakes. It still leaves a little frothy/foam on the top...but not as much as a regular blade.
PROS: Cheap, gets the job done, looks fancy
CONS: Not extremely necessary to make milk shakes. The regular blade will make milk shakes just fine without it.
SUMMARY: Only purchase if you have the spare cash to spend on it. I would not label this item as a pure necessity for milk shakes. But it does do a nice job.
Customer Review: Great shakes!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great accessory for the Oster blender. Just replace the regular blade with this milkshake blade, press the button and you have a shake in seconds! Mixes it faster and thoroughly. Worth the money.
