Our Verdict

Oster Pro 1200

KitchenAid Diamond

The KitchenAid Diamond is better than the Oster Pro 1200. The KitchenAid has a much better build quality, it's quieter when running, and its main jar has a bigger capacity. The Oster comes with a 24-ounce personal jar, but the KitchenAid does a better job of processing small batches of fibrous ingredients for something like a kale smoothie.
