I have had this blender for a couple weeks only, but so far I love it. I use it to make salsa and sauces and it blends great. I hope there is a replacement jar cup in case I brake it.

I would first like to mention how nice this blender looks, the brushed nickel looks very classy, and the picture is heavy glass, with a removable blade and base. Overall the look and feel of the device and glass is pretty high quality. The buttons are protected with a durable layer of plastic, yet still very easy to press. The covered buttons also make for very easy cleaning. The Oster Master series blender offers many preset blending functions. It's very easy to select what you want and either press the play/start button or the pulse button to start blending. The pulse button by itself is used to get chunkier blends. However you really need to read the directions to get the hang of how to use the chunky features properly, otherwise you will just end up pureeing everything. When prepping for larger chunk cuts/blends you really need to make sure you have enough liquid in the picture, or place the items you don't mind pureed on the bottom, so they can give the larger items more room to move down to the blades. I found that I was getting smaller chunks than I wanted because of these two issues, but also because I was using very large pieces of food. I wanted to see how it would do, with the minimal amount of work from the user. ( I have included some pics to show the before and after effects of my attempts) I think big chunks are possible with this blender, but under the right circumstances. Of course, these terms are all relative to one's own perspective. I was aiming for Chunky soup in a can size bits. Again I think it is possible , if you have the right amount of loose fluid, and the right size chops to start with. Then simply hit the pulse button a few short times to get your desired size cuts. The smoothies and milk shakes came out perfect. After selecting the right buttons and hitting start, the machine goes through a series of higher and lower speed cycles to help circulate the food, so not just the bottom of the jar gets chopped up. The salsa even came out really good on the recommended cycles. with small chunks, perfect for dipping, yet still big enough to sit on the chip. (see pictures) Overall I think this is a GREAT blender with great consistencies, and a pretty good chopper( with a little experimenting ) If the pictures come out in the right order: 1- large chunk experiment , 2 - chunky soup , 3- smoothie ingredients (added as is) , 4 - smoothie , 5- milkshake , 6- salsa

Works good and is easily cleaned by unscrewing the blade from bottom. Comes with a smaller pitcher that is great for smoothies. Veggies and fruit need to be cut into small 1” pieces before blending. 2 auto modes Smoothie or Food Chop. 3 textures thin, medium and thick. Once you’ve chosen push on or pulse and your done.
