Customer Reviews of Oster 2609 250-Watt Variable Speed Hand Blender, White with Sterling Silver
Customer Rating: Summary: practical but short lived Comment: I used the blender for a few years. I liked it until the plastic part that holds the blade cracked and let the blade loose. I guess it is a blender with a short life-span. If you need something long lasting, don't buy it. If you don't mind replacing it every 2 or 4 years, then it is a very practical and versatile tool. Customer Rating: Summary: Throw-away Comment: We received this hand blender as a gift and were very happy with it until the gear that drives the blade shaft stripped out it is apparently a cheap plastic gear. If that one part were made better the thing would probably be a nice appliance. I tried the Oster service center and couldn't even get a replacement part. The guy on the phone said that most of the hand blenders were purchased on a "throw-away basis". It would be nice if they would advertise that fact. "Buy this blender and throw it away a few months later!" They probably wouldn't sell to well. Customer Rating: Summary: Also had problems Comment: I also used this mixer for mixing powder drinks with milk. I had problems after a few months with the metal blade shaft seizing up, and eventually flakes of what appeared to be metal started showing up in the milk.

Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Dryer When shopping for a new clothes dryer, look for one with a moisture sensor that automatically shuts off the machine when your clothes are dry. Not only will this save energy, it will save wear and tear on your clothes caused by over-drying. Keep in mind that gas dryers are less expensive to operate than electric dryers. The cost of drying a typical load of laundry in an electric dryer is 30 to 40 cents compared to 15 to 25 cents in a gas dryer.
