DASH Deluxe Compact Masticating Slow Juicer Easy to Clean Cold Press Juicer with Brush Pulp Measuring Cup Frozen

After watching some negitive review videos on YouTube about this awesome little juicer, I was a little leery but went ahead and bought it anyway. I had also read some bad reviews here on Amazon (I always go to the lowest rated reviews first to see what the problems or complaints about the product are) and it seems to me that most of the people who were complaining about the product not working properly, we're in fact not using the product properly. It has to be understood that; Number one- this is a small juicer, it's not going to handle tons of fruits or vegetables just shoved down into it all at once. Also- it's a slow juicer that uses an auger rather than a blade, so anything like leafy greens or celery or Ginger, needs to be cut into small pieces so that it doesn't jam the auger. In addition- I saw one juicing expert in particular make a lengthy video reviewing it compared to another juicer, in which he stated that this juicer was rather obnoxiously loud. Made me a little nervous but I figured I could stand the noise until I'm ready to upgrade. Now, when I say this juicer is quiet AF! I mean it! Of course it has a noise, anything with a motor is going to, but I have a Magic Bullet that's like literally five times louder than this thing! The last thing I'll say is that- I saw some videos of people using The Pusher to just jam things through it as quickly as possible!!! The whole point of this juicer is that it's a compact SLOW JUICER!!! It's not supposed to be fast!!!! duh! No wonder your s*** was jamming, leaking and breaking. 😵 All in all, I'm absolutely in love with this juicer! If you know what you're doing it's a great little product! And to have a high-quality slow pressed juice in such an easy and convenient way,I feel like it's almost a miracle! Thank you Dash! I'll literally be a rep for you! Call me! -Lisa Michelle Certified Health coach and juice enthusiast PS, if you want to buy this juicer but aren't sure that you'll know how to use it properly, I can tell you that you don't need to use the pusher unless something gets stuck in the middle or at the top of the shoot. Merely use The Pusher to guide the fruit down to the auger , not to push it through! The auger pulls the fruits and vegetables down all by itself. Don't fill it up too much at one time, and it'll all be good! And if you're trying to make mad volumes of juice, this is not the right juicer for you. Find something bigger. Read more

I rarely write reviews, but this is a great product. Anyone complaining simply doesn’t understand the limitations of a small compact juicer. Yes you do need to be patient and wait for the auger to pull each piece through. This isn’t a huge champion juicer for example. This is to make like a single serving of juice or sorbet. It works great, minimal waste, minimal noise, and it’s the easiest to clean juicer I’ve used. Use the product with patience and cleanliness as it is intended and clearly instructed, and you will have no issues and you will love it. Read more

I'll leave the original review below. We've had this for about six weeks and we've been unable to force the auger into the locking mechanism more than half of the time. We used Amazon answers and got a helpful reply, but even that strategy is not reliable. My wife wants to make juice everyday after work. You have to assemble the juicer and the auger is used to lock the moving parts together. Wow she gets so frustrated! You can't force it in far enough to make it lock. Unlocked, it won't power on. Of course I offer to help and I keep in mind the instructions from the Amazon user. My success rate is about 50%. If I have a hard time, my wife says, "Just forget it." She puts the disassembled juicer parts back into the cabinet. Now that we have had it for six weeks, it is past the return eligible date. I hope that the seller will respond and make this right. We're out a hundred bucks and unable to make juice when we want to. _______________________________ My wife bought this and I was there for its first use. She had washed it earlier and I watched her put it together. This is self-evident and easy to do. I was visiting on the phone with a relative while I watched. She had chopped bitter melon, carrot and cucumber. It did a great job of extracting the pulp. She said that she may substitute or add celery to adjust the flavor to her liking. What I saw was a very thin stream of juice, by "thin" I don't mean weak, I mean not viscous. That's called juice! A lot of pulp went into the other container. I was still on the phone while watching her clean it at the sink. It was easy. Basically, she will be juicing for one. She believes -- and she's not alone in this -- that the bitter melon juice lowers her blood sugar. It was lower this week after drinking bitter melon tea, but I'm getting off the subject. We expect it to last well, with her light use of it. Before buying I looked for numbers like wattage and RPM's and could not find anything like that. No matter. It has plenty of power to do the job quickly and efficiently. The price is right. A person could pay hundreds of dollars for a juicer. This one costs less than a hundred. The BEST PART is the small footprint. Given that every other aspect is just fine, the small footprint makes this DASH Extractor a very happy purchase for us. Read more
