Very powerful and reliable

published

I use this weekly to make fruit smoothies, but I only use frozen fruit such as mangos, apples, nectarines, bananas ie whatever fruit that's getting on, I freeze for this purpose. I add a little water and the Optimum takes care of the rest. It breaks up the frozen fruit in a short time leaving very smooth and very cold fruit blends. Very happy with this machine and have owned it for about five years.

Best blender I owned

published

I purchased the Optimum blended more than 2 years ago, I was a bit hesitant about it as the price was a bit high, but I never regretted that decision. I owned a few different blenders from top brands before the Optimum, but you can't compare the performance and the quality with this powerful horse.
It blends everything you put into it in a matter of seconds, let it be beetroot, almonds, frozen fruits, it does not matter. The result will be exceptional, everything is always very smooth.

Love my Optimum

published

I love that this blender is so powerful and can tackle really tough jobs, like hard nuts, or frozen fruits/veggies. It has taken some time to work out the right speed to use it at for certain jobs, because if you overdo it the machine can overheat. Overall, really really happy with it. It's super useful.

Terrific

published

This is probably the best blender I have ever used. It absolutely pulverises anything you put in it. I've never had any leaking, and the result is always very smooth. Particular favourites are soups, smoothies and nut mylk. Also, the recipe booklet it comes with is pretty good! The self-clean function is good if you do it immediately after using the blender but otherwise, you need to get a brush and scrub. The only downside is that it can be hard to clean under the blades.

Best Blender yet

published

I bought this blender for my daughter for Christmas. She is rapt with it. Smoothies are easily blended and are so smooth. She is very impressed with it's blending abilities. She loves the pre-programmed touch pad. My daughter made me chocolate, peanut butter nice cream today and it was so creamy, smooth and delicious. The machine blended the frozen bananas so quickly. The wider jug makes it easier to get the food out. I'm very impressed with this blender and I wish I had one too. I highly recommend it.

Use my blender every day!

published

I have used my blender almost every day to make my morning smoothie which is full of macadamia nuts, seeds & other solid ingredients and it still effectively blends it all into a smooth thick & delicious drink. I’ve also used it to ground seeds etc to make curry paste. Although the curry powder stained the plastic interior so it now looks ‘foggy’, I’m very happy with the functionality of this blender!

I am proud of myself for choosing this company

published

I am very, very satisfied with my Optimum machine blending power.
This blender really helps me to eat healthy.
I make Ginger Root extract, also another Garlic extract and another Kurkuma Root extract then I use a spoon of each in everything, meals or veggies or fruit Smoothies. Try raw Potato and Carrot Smoothie to balance PH in the body.
I got the best and efficient Customer Service when I got a problem and I was very satisfied. This company won't let you down.

Amazing service

published

The service was amazing from Froothie as always. The machine is powerful, pretty noisy but does everything I want it to.

It does smoothies pretty well, but sometimes when grinding if you don’t have enough it doesn’t work.

Best blender by far

published

Absolutely smooth blends, throw anything in and you are assured there will be no lumpy surprises. We use it every morning for a healthy start to the day. Clean up is a breeze with essentially a quick rinse out. Highly recommend the Optimum G2.6 as it is a good looking and serious machine.

Brilliant Blender

published

I have had my Optimum blender for nearly 2 years now and completely satisfied. I wanted to improve eating healthy and was keen to make smoothies. This blends beetroot, almonds and other solid fruit and veggies. I was surprised how fine this blends. Its easy to use, I am using it daily and this has been so reliable. Don't waste your money on cheap blenders

Finally a blender that will do the job!!!!!

published

Have been using our new Optimum blender for a few weeks now and really happy with the product. After burning two other brand blenders on preparing Acai bowls needed a blender that would be guaranteed to do the job. The Acai bowls are turning out perfect and it is good to know that we are using a product which we can have confidence in.

AMAZING BLENDER!

published

We could not be happier with this blender! We use it for everything and it has not disappointed yet. We use it nearly every day and it always blends perfectly. Easy to use and we also love the accessories you can get for it.
The customer service at Froothie is equally great! Fast replies and great service.

If you are looking for a powerful blender buy from these guys!

Great Product so worth the money

published

I bought this after the cheaper model I wanted was unavailable. I decided to buy as my son was so pleased with his machine I bought him a few years earlier and they did lots of research. It is very well built and will last for many years. It makes perfect smoothies, soups and is easy to use and has many more uses I've not tried yet. Great product would highly recommend. Definitely worth the money.

Years of excellent service

published

I've had this unit for about 4 years and it is just wonderful. It has more than enough power for home use and does a perfect result every time. I mainly use it for green smoothies as it just pulverises veggies into a fantastic drink every time. Am amazed at how well it "cooks" pumpkin soup .. half an onion, raw pumpkin, white pepper and some salt and whiz for about 10 mins ... wow. Highly recommended.

Brilliant blender with amazing customer service

We have had our blender for almost 4 years now. It is powerful, easy to clean and a massive time saver. We've had to liaise with customer service on two issues and both times they have blown us away with their efficient, pro-active support.

Huntingdaleasked

I have one of your blenders and the other day the blades fell off one of the jugs I use and I had a second one and somehow their was black shredder rubber under the jug when I used it. Couldn't see where it came from. Not sure what is going on. My daughter has the same blender and believes my blender is less powerful than hers.
What do you suggest. Not keen to use it and gave out it away in the cupboard.
Your advise would be great.
Kind regards
