The elegant design of the Oster Counterforms Blender is part of its charm. The blender can be purchased in a mixture of black and stainless finish or an all black finish.

This blender can be used as a food processor, chopper and/or a blender. Families tight on countertop space can appreciate the compact nature of its footprint.

This Oster Blender comes with a 6-cup glass jar and offers an all-metal drive system for an added layer of strength to accompany its 600 watts of power.

It features several settings programmed in to accommodate easy operation of the blender.

The most exciting feature for many users is the fact that it can be used not only for blending smoothies but also for tasks like pureeing, chopping vegetables, and even creating fantastic sauces and salsas.

Push button operation is yet another feature offered by the makers of the Oster Counterforms Blender. You can select from a few pre-set timed cycles or use the traditional buttons for low, medium, and high speed blending, low pulse, and high pulse.

The starting price for the Counterforms Blender is an attractive price, especially when you consider the additional functionalities of this device as a chopper and a food processor. It does a lot more than similarly priced blenders are able to do.

The jar is dishwasher safe and easily comes apart so that you can wash many of the components for the top of the machine, including the lid and blades in the dishwasher for easy cleanup.

600 watts of power is another pretty big advantage in a blender of this size and at this price. This means that it has a little more potential power than similar blenders in this price range.

Disadvantages

The biggest complaint about the Counterforms Blender is that it is loud. It's important to remember that most blenders are loud, especially when blending ice or other hard materials in them.

There have also been a few complaints that gaskets break easily and leaks occur as a result. Be gentle when dealing with your blender to avoid this and if it does happen, there are generally replacement parts that can be ordered and delivered rather quickly.

Consumer Reviews

Summary

When the time comes to purchase your next blender, be sure to give the Counterforms Blender a second look. The price is nice for the features this blender has to offer.

There are a few flaws to be considered but none of them appear to be fatal flaws and the Oster name is a trusted name in the business of building better blenders.

It is also a feature rich piece of equipment as far as the average kitchen appliance goes. Consider the amount of space that can be saved by combining a blender, food processor, and chopper in one little space on your countertop and you'll see that you just can't go wrong with the Oster Counterforms Blender.
