Excellent
G2.6 PlatinumPreviously had a vitamix for years and was happy until its motor burnt out. The optimum is a game changer. Faster smoother and quieter. Definitely purchase if you like smooth smoothies with not “bit” left over.

This is a true workhorse of a blender
G2.6 PlatinumThe blending capability on this blender is second to none. I've blended super thick smoothies as well as made soup from scratch in it, it's quite powerful to slice through the toughest of ingredients. The jug is large so I can make quite a few in one blend, and I can store them away in the fridge for the rest of the day.
All in all a great all round blender.

Awesome Blender
G2.6 PlatinumI bought the G2.6 about 2 years ago and the blender is awesome. It does a much better job in blending that a nutribullet. I makes soups easily, I make hot sauce that is smooth and my other half, she makes smoothies everyday. Just like a top end vitamix but a third of the price. Highly recommended!

Optimum G2.6 .. Love
G2.6 PlatinumI'm very impressed with my blender. The power is amazing. We do not need to use full power for our use, and I love that you set the timer for whatever you required. I always start low and increase as needed. I previously had another brand .. but I love this one more.

I’m very impressed by my new G2.6 Platinum blender.
G2.6 PlatinumIt’s my third Optimum blender and by far the best for grinding grains and crushing ice . Seeds in my smoothies totally disappear. The only disadvantage compared to my 9200 and 9400 is I have to put more volume into the jug for the tampar to reach. So I can’t do smaller quantities like before. I will have to check the small jug which I did think was included but obviously you have to order it separately.

An absolute beast of a Blender
G2.6 PlatinumI waited for a month plus before leaving a review so hopefully this is going to be indicative of how the blender will work for the next couple of years or so.
First, the shipping was fast and smooth. I received the blender just 2-3 days after I put the order in which was fantastic because my previous one died and I tend to use it quite a bit.
For the past month, I used the blender daily. Either once or twice. So on average, I will say 45 uses already.
The blender is a beast. I mostly use it for smoothies but I did use it to make protein ba

Powerful, high quality blender
G2.6 PlatinumEnjoy using my Froothie blender every morning to make smoothies for my husband and I. The jug is huge, so can make large quantities. I use nuts and dates in my smoothies, and I find it useful to just push the smoothie button to get the perfect speed and duration (preset). I generally do this twice to ensure the dates blend properly. I also add spinach to my smoothies and there is never any pieces left unblended, which I love. Back to the preset buttons, these are perfect for me, as it allows me to push a button, then do other things without nee
... Read moreding to stand there and wait for it to finish. Small things like this do make a difference, especially at 5am!! Overall, really pleased with my new blender and can’t wait for summer to roll around so that I can make jugs of cocktails on the weekends to enjoy on the patio with friends. Great investment!!Collected in partnership with froothie.com.au

The OPTIMUM G2.6 Platinum Series, Our Most Advanced Blender To Date
May I know how long the ex-demo blender has been used before putting on sale?
Hi Erica,
Thank you for your interest in our products :)
Ex-demo units were minimally used at seminars or for demonstrations by our team.
Each unit has only been used a handful of times, washed and repackaged.
The ex-demo units have 100% of the same warranty as the new units.
Hope this helps,
Froothie team.
Thank you for the information
You are more then welcome :-)
Hi, Is it possible to purchase a 1 lite jug for the G2.6 blender ?
Hello Gerry,
Unfortunately, we are sold out of the Optimum G2.6 1L jug and we are currently not having an estimated time of when they will be coming back in our assortment.
However, when using the 2L jug, you will be also able to blend small quantities. We recommend covering the blades by 1-2 centimeters as a minimum.
Hope this helps and if you need any further assistance, do not hesitate to reach out.
Much regards,
Froothie team
we have a new G2.6 and we can't get the jug to fit securely onto base...its just loose
Hey! Yes this surprised me too. It doesn’t lock in but just sits there. It doesn’t effect its function so doesn’t really matter :)
ok, thanks Naomi
Hello Ladies - Pamela and Naomi.
Thank you for your question and your answer.
That is correct, the jug does not lock into place until the unit is switched on and the jug engages with the drive socket. You may notice it slightly rotates before locking in. This is normal and perfectly safe :)
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Have a lovely day
Suzanna
thanks Suzanna
