Quote from sillyrib :

My $20 blender + blending stick combo has been working great for 15 years.

As a counterpoint, I spent a lot of money over time on "decent" blenders that were $50 or less (Osterizer, Cuisinart, etc.), and with the frozen fruit smoothies I make, their motors would inevitably burn out as they struggled with frozen strawberries. In contrast, my last purchase was a high-end Blendtec blender with a huge motor that happily pulverizes the hell out of whatever I put into it. I love it, and while the cost was high, I would rather pay that upfront than deal with the frustration and cost over time of smaller blenders.

ine has not burned out and I do the same thing. I've spent the $400 I've saved on ingredients instead.

Yeah, no. Video or it did not happen.

I had a $40 Oster blender years ago and made dozens and dozens of thick frozen drinks with fruit, ice, etc and never burned out the motor.

The key is knowing how to use hardware properly.

Psst, amateur! I steal all the ingredients from local farms, grocery stores, and banana republics and spent the $400 I've saved on a big ass blender! Sucks to be you with that ghetto blender of yours

I'll post the 15 year time lapse right away. People who spend this kind of money on things like blenders need to get there priorities straight. I'd rather give the $400 to someone who needs it than a *&^(*&% blender.

People who spend this kind of money on a blender know what to use it for. Primarily to blend frozen fruits smooth without a ton a liquid. When you say your $15 blender can do that, tell me the brand and model so that I can get one.

I agree with you. People come in here saying why other pay a lot of money for a product from a reputable brand. But they won't link or name the one they are using that's supposed to be better.
