Why it's buy-it-for-life
Redditors report these vintage Osterizer blenders still running strong 40-60 years after manufacture, including units inherited from parents with original manuals intact. The glass jar and blade assembly are said to match a standard mason jar, and owners note that periodic degreasing/relubrication of the motor keeps it going indefinitely.

Got this Osterizer Galaxie 10 at Goodwill for $15.99 ... I believe it's from the 60's
the blade and bottom for an Osterizer blender should match up with a standard mason jar, so you can blend single-serve drinks
My parents still use the one they got in the 80's.
I inherited it, mine still has the original manual and cookbook dated 1966 ... Im in love with mine
These are the best!
You'll get the most years out of it if you start by degreasing and relubricating the motor. Almost guaranteed it's due.
