Howdy y'all,
I recently found a childhood memory in a local flea market, a Ronson Cook N Stir Blender. I was quite honestly surprised to have found it as well as the price that I paid for it...which was $10.00...but minus the box and the owner's manual. Took it over to show some friends, they had never seen one before and were astonished by the fact that the blender had a temperature selector on it for 100-375 degrees.
I plugged it in at the flea market, it both spun and the heating element came on. Went ahead, bought it, then went over to another friend's house and thought that I'd try and chop some ice with it. After that, I figured I'd also try and see how long it would take for it to reach 375 degrees. Was pleasantly surprised that it took only 15 minutes to go from chopped ice to rapidly boiling water.
My question(s) is/are--
1. How easy is it to take the bottom assembly apart from the glass container?
2. Does anyone have a copy of the owner's manual? I've seen pics of a couple in someone's collection, but don't remember whose it was.
3. What years were these produced and released...and why did they take it off the market?
Keep up the GREAT work everyone,
Bill
