New blender

[BareSteel]

I made a mistake today and broke my blender. It was a very simple Back-to-Basics model that lasted 20+ years. A gasket came loose from inside the lid and got caught in the spinning blade, causing a jam I cannot fix.

What are some good quality blenders on the market right now for making protein shakes? I want something easy to clean and have a preference for a glass rather than plastic.

Thank you,

We use a regular, no frills Osterizer in our house. It has a glass pitcher that's easy to take apart to clean, parts are standardized and easy to find. It's basically the same kind I've used all my adult life. (Also most of my youth, for that matter...)

As a bonus, the pitcher uses the same threading as Mason jars, so you can attach the blade base to jars and blend stuff right in them.

A possible cheaper alternative depending on lifestyle and your views on the COH (Cost of Hassle) of clean up.

I have used my Vitamix for 15 years. No problems with it and I use it 3-4 times every day.

It came with 2 containers and they are plastic. I don't know if they sell them with glass containers.

It was expensive but I would definitely recommend/buy again.
