Yeah, I think that's overkill on price for her. Would be for me too.
That Oster I have is plenty powerful and I think I paid around $30 15 years ago or so. Maybe even longer, I forget. Today's model looks just the same except they 'fancied' up the button row by making it curvy. The housing is a decent heavy plastic that won't chip easily and everything is made of vulcanized rubber or metal or glass. The lid is rubber and the measuring/removable center cap is the only plastic. I make smoothies in there all the time (real ones with yogurt, not that crushed ice crap from California) and they come out really nice.
It crushes ice like a champ too for those vodka slushies I am famous for.
