Differentiation

• Target Consumer: Men and women seeking easy to use products that can elevate their baking experience. They believe high tech doesn’t need to be high stress. They want something that’s easy to use and built to last.

• Demographic: 48/52 split between men & women, 25-65 years old, Highest concentration of HHI: $50K - $75K+ , 45% have children in HH, Majority college grads

  • Mass/Specialty: Immersion blender will have display with key features.

Consumer pain point: Manual whisking and mixing takes a long time, can tire out your arms and can leave you with an uneven consistency. Rather than struggle with multiple tools and bowls to make the perfect soup, sauce or smoothie, our immersion blender makes food prep quick and easy. Its compact design helps you keep counters less cluttered and it powerful DC motor gets the job done. This multi-tasking tool is easier to clean than a traditional blender or food processor – the bottom attachment pops off for an easy cleaning experience.

We need a new immersion blender to replace current model (FPSTHB26BLK-000) to strengthen Oster's relevance with consumers. These two options have been very successful in LATAM. Both units feature a quad blade for a quick and uniform blend, variable speed control for greater mixing versatility and a long-lasting DC motor for blending all types of foods.
