Title: THE KING KONG OF THE KITCHEN!
Review: Lord knows how much money I've thrown away over the years on "multi-speed" stylishly designed blenders, some of which couldn't cut through yogurt. This Oster is amazing! Overcoming my apprehension about it not "fitting in" with my otherwise modern-looking kitchen appliances, I relied on the previous comments and just did it. News Flash! It's now safe to put ice cubes into your home blender. The Oster chews them up in seconds, and doesn't sound like it's about to implode as it does it. I'd call this a professional grade blender at a consumer price. I chose a white one, and it not only performs splendidly, but looks great as it exudes an aura of authority on my counter top. The powerful motor is a giant among the myriad of wimpy 16-18 speed (all weak) blenders. I think this Oster would grind up a bowling ball if you could get it into the jar.
