![]() They are perfect if you aren’t needing the top, bottom, or any other part. When replacing a gasket, it is important to make sure the new one is the same size as the old one in order to ensure a proper fit. These gaskets are made from high-quality rubber and are designed to last for many years. If you are finding that liquid is spilling out when you are blending, even with the lid completely shut, then you may need these gaskets. Give your blender a fresh start with these brand new ones. Gaskets can wear out and dry out over time, losing their ability to seal out the liquid. The gasket should be checked regularly for wear and tear, and replaced when needed. It also helps prevent air from entering the blender while blending, which keeps the blades from overheating. It is a circular rubber seal that fits snugly between the jar and the base, preventing food and liquids from spilling out. How would you use differently: If you buy a blender with more features, will you use those functions enough to justify the original purchase.A gasket is an important part of any oster blender.What do you want it for: Determine what functions are most important to you.If the costs are too high on a certain brand and model will that deter you from purchasing the original blender. How much do replacement parts cost: Are replacement parts available and how much would do they cost.Do you feel the cost is justified by how you will use the product. What is your budget: How much are you willing to spend.Questions to Ask When Purchasing a New Blender: While there are some great features and I loved the seperate bowl for the food processor, I was concerned after reading reviews that cited cracking when using the blending mode. The brand ambassador struggled with the lid on the blender and like the Vitamix, the container is made of plastic. I saw the Ninja® 1200 Watt Intelli-Sense Kitchen System demonstration on QVC. Why NOT go with the Ninja® 1200 Watt Intelli-Sense Kitchen System. QVC does offer free shipping on some items but not when you choose the Easy Pay® option. I am an Amazon Prime member so shipping is free, unlike QVC. It takes longer to receive items ordered from QVC than Amazon. Shipping was a factor in my decision as well. Also, there were a few less than stellar reviews that prevented me from making the purchase. I kept thinking of the money I could save or the other things I could buy if I purchased a less expensive blender. I thought I would be fine spending $393.47 (at the time) or $65.57 for 6 months on Easy Pay at QVC for the Vitamix® Explorian 48-oz Variable Speed Blender w/ Book & Accessories but I just couldn't hit submit on the order button. From the ease of blending a smoothie to homemade nut butters and soup, it seemed like my best bet. The Vitamix® demos are certainly convincing. Food Processor: There is a seperate 5 cup container and blades for food processing. The cost of purchasing a new one was a factor when making the decision to buy the Oster®.Ĥ. Replacement Costs: I was concerned that I would break the containers. ![]() Oster® had the best price for what I wanted to use the blender for.ģ. Price: I had to feel comfortable with the purchase price. I was concerned about the cost so I also looked at the Ninja® but.Īfter watching several demos on QVC (yes, I'm a fan!) and YouTube videos comparing the Vitamix and Ninja®, we purchased the Oster® for $81.99 on Amazon.ġ. With the problems I had with my Oster®, I had my mind set on a Vitamix®. I spent too much time in the kitchen on prep work. The small mini chopper I have is fine for making energy bites but other recipes needed to be prepped in 3 to 4 stages. I really wanted a new blender that made making smoothies a breeze and a food processor for all the prep work that some of the recipes I make require. Also I had to wait a bit before starting the blender because the motor would burn out. Even with partially defrosted fruit, I needed to start and stop the blender to push the ingredients down. It was not great at blending pieces of frozen fruit and ice. I needed to allow time for the frozen fruit and ice to defrost before even attempting to use the blender. I had an inexpensive Oster® blender that could barely make a smoothie without some planning. It's an Oster® which is weird because I really thought I wanted a Vitamix®. I was not paid for this review but I am an Amazon Affiliate.įinally, I have a new blender and food processor. This a review of 3 blenders and the factors that determined my final purchase.
