Why You Can Trust CNET Ice shaving blender melts the ice
The Oster BLSTET-C Ice Shaving Blender is a party waiting to happen. Capable of operating as a traditional blender or a specialized ice-shaving machine, the appliance is perfect for entertaining.
Having an icy cold drink is probably the furthest thing from most people's minds right now, but at some point it will be front and center again. When the heat waves of summer hit, those prepared with the ability to transform ice into tropical cold drinks and icy treats will be looked upon with envy. When the time comes, the best thing would be to roll with it, and let the block party begin. But first, an ice shaver is needed.
The Oster BLSTET-C Ice Shaving Blender is a party waiting to happen. Capable of transforming from a blender into a dedicated ice shaver, the sleek countertop appliance creates specialized drinks at the touch of a button. Featuring preprogrammed blending and ice-shaving settings, the double-duty machine takes the guesswork out of creating frozen drinks. Which is a good thing, considering you are going to have a party to host.
After the party, cleanup will be a breeze, as the 40-ounce blending jar is dishwasher-safe. The ice reservoir and associated parts should be hand-rinsed and left to air-dry, which shouldn't be a problem, considering (most likely) you're not going to be serving your guests drinks made with dirty ice--even if they did invite themselves over.
