To say I love this blender is an under statement! There’s really not much I don’t like about the Oster Versa Performance Blender. It is LOUD and I don’t like that but there’s just nothing else not to like about it. It works like a professional restaurant quality blender.  It blends in seconds, pulverizing whatever you put in it. Nothing is too difficult for the Versa.

 

At last, a commercially-inspired, high performance blender that delivers it all!  From the number one brand in blending, the new Oster® Versa® delivers a healthy blend of power, precision, versatility and value. Offered at a fraction of the cost of comparable high performance blenders, this affordable luxury is a rugged, durable, multi-tasking innovation featuring a massive 1,400-watt motor that spins its stainless steel blades at 28,000 RPM to deliver precise and professional results at the touch of a button. The 8-cup BPA-free Tritan plastic jar creates a forceful blending vortex that pushes ingredients off the walls of the jar and down into the blade. Ingenious design, massive power and extraordinary speed come together to create hot soups, cold sorbets and creamy nut butters in minutes! An oversized control knob promises optimal customization to create an endless array of healthy homemade foods and beverages.  Protein drinks, green smoothies, dips, dressings, spreads, sauces and salsas are all finally within reach. To inspire creativity, two full color cookbooks, Fresh & Fit Recipes and Gourmet Blends, are included. The brand’s promise of unrivaled durability is backed up by a 7-year limited warranty.

I have made pumpkin puree, veggie smoothies that pulverized full heads of broccoli, carrots, celery and more. Smoothies came out smooth without chunks of veggies. Pumpkin puree came out smooth and the right consistency. My 11 year old son drunk the smoothies without any fight and he loved them!

The Oster Versa Performance Blender has a 1400 Watt motor that pushes food off the walls and into the blade. We like that the jar is wider and not as tall. It makes it the perfect size to store under the cabinet but is just a tiny bit too tall to be stored on my counter top, underneath the cabinets.

Oster Versa came with a tamper to help push food down as the blender is running. The tamper does not reach all the way down so it cant damage the blades. The blender also came with a hardback recipe book that is filled with delicious smoothie recipes. There’s a smaller softback book inside with healthy recipe options.

Oster Versa Performance Blender is a great value for the money. If you are looking to get your wife or mother a nice kitchen appliance the Versa blender is a great option for $249.99 mrsp.
