What's a good Blender.?

[vivandorron]

We are looking to buying a Blender. Ideally, a stainless steel base and glass jug.

Argos has available a 'Cookware Signature' which could meet our requirements, but we have never previously come across the manufacturer's name.

Consequently we would wish to have a few comments from ABers on the matter.

Blendtec ones are extremely robust (but so is the price).

It's "cookWORKS Signature" and it's Argos's own brand. If it's item 422/8228, Which? describes it as "incredibly good value" and it's much cheaper than their Best Buys which are typically £60 to over a hundred pounds! Sounds like a bargain!

What do you call a Chinese woman with a food mixer on her head?

Blender...:-)

[anneasquith]

dont know much about blenders, but plenty "mixers " in AB

For me it's 10 pints of lager and half a bottle of rum. Oops, sorry, didn't spot the L in blender.

[gingejbee]

Sorry, V & R, I'm the only one to take your question seriously!

[vivandorron]

mike..I always like your humour ....it blends in with mine.. and anneasquith is a good mixer with us sensible ABers.!!

Nice to know that there are at least two of us on the same wavelength.

[vivandorron]

gingejbee...I acknowledge that you have taken my question quite seriously and would wish you to know that at this stage Viv (my better-half..wife) is pushing me towards buying the 'Cookworks' item. However I am open to other opinions on the matter.

In the meanwhile, don't be bothered by the other answers which I have had. Just smile at the comments which I have had from folk whom I regard as friends within AB.

[anneasquith]

seriously viv. ive purchased lots of electrical and white goods from argos, and so far no problems.

[vivandorron]

Hi anneasquith.... It's always nice to have your comments on matters. which are so often punctuated with good humour.We've bought quite a lot from Argos and will probable go ahead with the purchase of the 'Cookware 'item.

Best wishes ....V & R.

[anneasquith]

[vivandorron]

Depends anneasquith which one you are thinking of:-

Love V & R.

[vivandorron]

Thanks all for your comments and we would wish gingejbee and anneasquith to know that we have bought 'on-line' from Argos the Cookware Blender. It will be delivered on Friday of this week. ( £30.94 incl p&p....cheaper than going into Swansea and paying for petrol and parking fees.)

Viv & Ron.

Oyster if you can source it - really durable and easy - US made.

[DTCwordfan]

sorry Oster

[gingejbee]

Thanks for the feedback and I hope it gives years of trouble-free service!

[vivandorron]

Hope so gingejbee. Thanks for your friendly comments.

DT ..sorry, but, whilst Oster could have gone up in the frame. it's now a non- starter because we have purchased the Cookware item.

Best nwishes Viv& Ron.
