Professional reviewers acknowledge the Oster Pro 1200's strong motor and versatile presets as solid value for its price, but they consistently note its high noise output and limited control features as drawbacks compared to rivals like Ninja.
Everyday users praise the blender's powerful performance, easy setup, and the convenience of the portable smoothie cup, but they frequently cite the loud noise, occasional jar jams with fibrous foods, and basic control layout as pain points. The general sentiment is positive for casual home use, tempered by wishes for quieter operation and more advanced features.
Professional reviewers commend the BN701 for its 1400-peak-watt motor, Total Crushing blades and Auto-iQ presets, noting it outperforms the older BL610 and delivers reliable ice-crushing power for family-size batches, while pointing out the high noise level and lack of single-serve accessories.
Everyday users praise the blender's ability to quickly pulverize frozen fruits and ice, the convenience of one-touch Auto-iQ programs, and the ease of cleaning thanks to dishwasher-safe parts. The most frequent complaints revolve around loud operation, the unit's heft, and the missing personal jars for individual servings.
