SoSoCNX Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 My blender is about 3 months old and still smells like hell. I just use it Every morning to make smoothie. Back at home I have Vitamix and it is still running odorless. Otto is not a Vitamix but should not sell. Is it time to buy new one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwdrwdrwd Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I once had an Otto kettle, left it plugged in when not in use. Came home one day to find it had melted all over the worktop. I'd buy a different brand if I were you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree completely, always ever problems with that cheap brand and electrical smell means probably bad insulation inside the blender which means sooner or later melting down and possible fire in the kitchen...

NanLaew Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 From my personal experience, when selecting kitchen appliances in Thailand, there is one brand that one 'otto' not buy. However, they do make comparatively cheap gifts for people that you may not really care for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike787 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Buy a new quality blender, sell or give away thee old. Do not put up with smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Tiger Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 The smell does indicate it is getting hot. Just use it 'til it stops. The smell can't hurt anything and it will most likely not work one day and you will know time for another one. Otto should be considered a consumable. But it is cheap and does what it is intended to do for ever how long it works. YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
