Juicer Machines Cold Press Juicer with 5 8 Wide Feed Chute 300W Slow Masticating Juicer for Whole Fruits

I’m really happy with this slow juicer. juicer machine looks modern and doesn’t take up too much space on the counter. The wide feed chute is very convenient because I don’t need to cut fruits into very small pieces. It extracts juice efficiently, and the juice tastes fresh with very little pulp. I also like that it’s relatively quiet compared to other juicers I’ve used before. Cleaning is easier than I expected, since the parts come apart quickly and rinse well with water. The included cups are a nice bonus and practical for daily use. Read more

The media could not be loaded. To be completely honest, when I unpacked this juicer, I had my doubts. I saw the plastic container and presser and didn't think it would last long. I was very pleasantly surprised at how good it is though! Quality: I don't know quite how to pass along why I was skeptical at first. If you have a brand-name blender (or pretty much any blender) and it's plastic, it'll be noticeably thicker than this juicer. Both, the loading and the juice/pulp compartment look like they would crack under the pressure needed to process something hard like carrots. Specially when you see how hard and thick the pressing tool is. But that must mean that whatever type of plastic material is being used is definitely high quality. Performance: I stopped buying juicers some time ago. I didn't like how much juice was left in the pulp, didn't like the how messy the countertop got with spillage, and really didn't like how tedious washing all the pieces and blades was. This juicer is such a contrast! It went through carrots and beats quickly and without effort. The pulp barely has any juice left, it's so clean. I particularly like the carrot pulp, it's perfect for carrot cake too! Then there's how clean it is. There are no leaks coming from the spigot, or from anywhere else. The pulp chute sends out a steady 'tube' of pulp that doesn't go flying all over the place. Then, when it got to be washing time, everything glides off so effortlessly. That is, as long as you don't let the pulp dry. Then like anything else, it does stick. Minor issues: I noticed that the locking mechanism doesn't always release right away. It took me a while, but I think I figured it out. If I turn of the juicer and disconnect it before I open the lid, it stays locked (after about 5 minutes it would automatically release though). I've been opening the lid the past few times before unplugging it and it hasn't been an issue. Not the best for leafy greens. I tried using spinach, kale, and chard. The grinder had a hard time getting a grip on them. Even when I would stack the more solid vegies, like carrots, it would take a while for them to be dragged down. Ultimately, I gave up on using those on a regular basis. I might add a couple of leaves here and there, but I don't have a goal of making a glass of leafy greens juice. It's just not worth the added time and effort Comments: I don't know if there's anything that could actually be done about it, but at a height of about 17 in. it's a tall appliance compared to most others. At the same time, a bigger container for the pulp would be nice. By the time you've filled up the juice cup, you would have emptied the pulp about three times. Tips: I noticed that it can have a hard time processing stringy veggies. I used celery, ginger, and turmeric. You could see that the stringy fibers would begin to accumulate by the exit chute and eventually clog it. I would have to pull them out by hand with the little brush. Ginger, in particular, seemed to be more difficult. You could also hear the motor grinding slightly more. So, what I ended up doing was cutting the celery sticks into more manageable pieces about 3 - 3.5 inches long. Then, for the ginger and turmeric, I cut those into 0.5 inch cubes. That seemed to be enough so that they wouldn't get tangled up and clog the chute. If you like carrot cake, save the pulp. It's perfect for it! If you like making sauces or broths, save the rest of the pulp as well! It comes out clean and you can easily find other uses for it. So, just in case I need to be more clear :D, I absolutely loved this juicer. I loved that I'm not buying bottled juice, and instead have fresh every week. An absolute recommendation! Read more

I had a problem with a missing part but a new juicer was shipped and I will ship the first one back. The juicer was easy to set up and use but it was slower than I expected. I had a problem with celery because the waste chut gets clogged and when I am finished juicing its hard to clean out. I juiced the carrots and that was okay. Other than the celery jam- up the machine was easy to clean. It gave me about the same amount of juice as my small juicer and was easy to use and set up. Read more

I've wanted a juicer for awhile, but I was kind of intimidated by the process or the idea. This was my first time to use a machine like this and I was pleasantly surprised as how easy it is. The parts are fairly easy to assemble in the correct order. On my first try, I did have to adjust the auger before the machine would strart. I first juiced some small oranges. The machine ground them at a steady speed - not super fast, but it produced juice at a good rate. And it tasted wonderful. I next did two apples. I cut them to remove the seeds, but didn't peel them. This produced a slightly frothy or foamy juice. It may have settled had I let it sit a bit but I was anxious to try it. It tasted great! Both juices were smooth and full of flavor. There was only small bits left in the machine when I was done. Cleanup concerned me, but the machine disassembles and cleans up very easily. It only took a moment to wash with a soapy dishcloth and warm water. I wiped the parts dry and reassembled so it is ready for the next time. The machine feels durable and sturdy. It isn't terribly loud, either. There is a safety feature that I like - if the lid is open, the machine will not start and if already running, it will stop. I found this machine very easy to use, it extracts a lot more juice than I can by hand and the pulp is ground fine. I think it could be used for other things for little to no waste, and breaking down and cleaning the machine is quick and easy. It is worth keeping fruits and veggies on hand for! Read more
