Hamilton Beach Cold Press Masticating Juicer Machine Slow and Quiet Action Juice Fruits Vegetables BPA Free Easy Clean

We bought this a few months ago to try juicing, and have been extremely pleased. It is easy to assemble and easy to use. Disassembles just as easily and you can drop all of the parts in the dishwasher. It was actually more quiet than I expected, but you're turning solids into liquids - don't expect it to be silent. This works great with everything we've thrown in it: kale, ginger, carrots, beets - it would probably juice a bicycle if you cut it into small enough pieces. I've read that the more expensive double-screw juicers can extract more juice. But the pulp comes out pretty dry with this one - I don't know how much more juice you'll get at 4 or 5 times the price.... We were impressed enough that we bought another one for our daughter to bring back to school with her. Read more

This product has everything I could want in a juicer. It is quiet, sturdy, easy to use and clean, so I have been using it often over the past few months since I bought it. Plus, because of its style and its powerful engine, it is very quiet, not at all like my old juicer. I wholeheartedly recommend this product! Read more

It stops working as good after a short while. It’s decent, but needs a lot of readjusting while using. The worst part is that the parts are difficult to take a part after several uses. They get stuck. Before each use, I usually apply a little oil to the rims to keep it from sticking later. Again, it’s decent and works well as a beginner juicer. Read more

It’s a slow juicer, like it says in the product description. If you are not familiar with these, maybe you should do some research before you buy it. I got mine and I used it a few times to juice carrots and apples. The juicer does better with hard fruits and veggies. It did really good with the carrots. Pulled out all of the juice leaving dry pulp. I quickly learned that you have to peel the apples first. Even than, the apples are soft and quickly build up on top of the filter, preventing the juice from coming out. Apples would require you to clean the filter more often and what also helps is not stuff the shoot with apples and instead go slower. The machine itself is solid, very easy to clean, and just feels sturdy. Read more

I have been using this juicer daily since I received it about five weeks ago. It was working great at first. Then, two days after the Amazon return window closed, the inner strainer cracked. I contacted Hamilton Beach via their website and received no response at all after 6 business days when their site says a representative will be in contact within 1-3 business days. So I called their customer service to try and get a replacement strainer, and the customer service representative told me it is unavailable as a replacement part and there was nothing she could do. This is obviously not a juicer that is made for daily use, and their customer service was basically non-existent. Very unhappy with this product. Read more

I bought this juicer ONLY to make carrot juice. I searched awhile to know about pros and cons of many products. I finally settled on this one with price in lower side but with good reviews for making juice from hard ingredients. And I'm happy. This is a great juicer. I have made a lot of carrot juice AND I don't see any part that may break in near future. The only problem have is... it seems to produce a little juice out of lots of carrots. This is the only juicer I've evern owned so I have nothing to compare with. I highly recommend it. Read more

What did like that it does the job with pineapples and mangoes and ginger. But when I was making strawberries, blueberries and blackberries that tiny seeds jammed it up several times most of my juice and pulp went in the trash. So if your looking for pineapple mango with ginger this is the machine for you anything else good luck. Read more

Things were promising on day 1 but started going downhill shortly thereafter. It's not a bad machine and probably excellent on things like wheat grass as others have noted. It makes a mushy mess of soft items like grapes, berries, lemons etc. But worked better on grapes as opposed to other citrus fruit. Green leafy veggies it does OK sometimes wrapping around the auger, then you follow with a hard veggie to push it through except what if you want greens only?. Worked excellent on small hard veggies like Ginger Root and Tumeric. I found it juiced red peppers the best but it can't handle carrots and beat root. After only a few days it started making these high pitched squeaks and these occasional weird gyrations. Both the plastic and metal parts have become stained and discolored after only a few days of use. The auger is breaking down already (chipping and scratches all over) so I had to order a replacement. I paid $101 for this machine and it comes with a very "limited" warranty. If you are on a budget and use it sparingly you should be fine but if juicing is to become part of your daily routine, better to save your money and buy quality. Omega has a 15 year warranty. Paying $300-$400 is not so bad knowing you're good until the year 2034. Why waste $100 on a junky product. Read more
