Our Verdict

Oster Pro 1200

Hamilton Beach Wave Crusher Multi-Function

The Oster Pro 1200 is better than the Hamilton Beach Wave Crusher Multi-Function. It performs better for most uses, including smoothly blending fibrous ingredients, crushing ice cubes, and blending thick recipes like nut butter. It comes with a 24oz personal jar in addition to its 48oz main jar. However, the less powerful Hamilton Beach is significantly quieter.
