Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oster 6803 Core 14-Speed Blender with Glass Jar, White
Customer Review: Quickly shreds ice. After that it's not so great.
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this blender because my prior one couldn't handle ice cubes. This one does a superb job on ice cubes. It has a sharp stainless steel blade and a pulse "ice crush" button. The sturdy glass jar cleans easily and ice doesn't scratch it. The next step is to add the other ingredients and finish the frozen drink. That is where it flops. It just cant properly blend the thick icy smoothie that I like. It either blends the bottom half of the mixture leaving the top half stagnant, or else it starts out churning the whole mixture but soon sucks air into the blade, leaving the blade racing and doing nothing. I get around the problem using a complicated routine. Making the smoothie is just too tedious.
Here is what I do to make my smoothie with this blender: I blend a fresh banana to add some liquid to the crushed ice. Then I manually stir in the frozen fruit (blender off) and run increasing speeds until it turns over the whole mixture. Each time the mixture stops moving, I manually stir (blender off)to release the air and restart. Then I add the dry ingredients and repeat, run stop and stir, run stop and stir, until the dry part is chopped fine and blended. Even with fourteen speeds, I can't find a setting that works for more than a few seconds.
