Awesome for the price (Namnibor, Columbus, OH, 2008-08-24)

I have read all reviews on this product and I guess I have been pretty lucky in that : It never NEVER has leaked, I mainly do carrots and using the flat side of butter knife on back side of screen under COLD water is best, if you use warm water, the root material will expand and stay in more difficult. I LOVE this juicer and since I need to start eating better, juicing and using blender with yogart and blackbeery and blueberry bannana smoothies gives me my daily fruit and fiber added and protein pwder.....I like it so well I plan on buying a couple more as I usually am done Christmas shopping by November. If you do something like carrots and other root veggies and like fruit as well like a V8 Frusion, do your fruit after root veggies and will push and lubricate the root materia stuck in and make it come out or easier. For exrra healthy tips: Use the pulp, esp from carrots, to add to bannana bread or zukini or basic carrot bread but you can eliminate alot if not all the flour for a rather dense fiber muffin and add frozen berries to the muffins in pan before putting in oven so it is a more fresh berrie rather than mush. Potato fiber/mush is a great way of making hash browns that are more like potato pancakes or latkes (SP?) orange and any fruit, the juice emulsified with fiber makes jam, and can be Kosher by not using gelatin but non-animal gelatin found in same place in grocery lemons juiced and the waste is good for putting on fish while baking, be creative since it did not come with any recipe book, reason I gave it one less star.

The Little Juicer That Could (mstoni38, Rosedale, Md, 2008-03-12)

For Starters, Its a great looking devise and very sturdy. It works well as long as you follow instructions to the "T", You do have to cut up your fruits and veggies very small and narrow to fit into the shoot. Cleaning the Strainer/cutter is where you're going to run into a fix. It is hard to clean, a brush is not the answer at all! However, I did try a few things until, I came across a simple butter knife...(the flat end not the cutting end) just use it to scrub gently up and down the strainer while running warm water over the strainer at the same time is the answer. This works best for me....over all I expected more, but this little machine works fine for the price I paid. Just have patients and you will learn to like or love this little machine. This is my first juicer.

Better Chef Juicer (ssnoceans, , 2008-02-29)

This is a great starter product for anyone new to juicing vegetables. The juicer is sturdy, fits easily and securely together, and has surprisingly high torque that enables it to gnaw through large amounts of fruits and vegetables. I was careful at first to remove all seeds and skins before juicing, but soon discovered that isn't really necessary. The Better Chef has no problem dealing with them. This juicer is best suited for a single user. It's small so it only accommodates one person at a time easily. My only complaint about the Better Chef at this point is that cleanup can be tedious. But this is my first juicer, so it may be that all of them are similar in that regard.

Does the job, but... (MissMightyMouse, New Jersey, 2008-02-10)

This juicer does work fine with tough items like carrots (my favorite), however, the clear plastic components crack easily. The chute in the lid already has several cracks. Additionally, the seals around each of the hoppers (one front to catch juice, one back to catch waste) are insufficient and frequently leak juice while the juicer is in operation. This is more prevalent when juicing items with higher liquid content like grapefruit and orange. Given this is my first juicer ever, I didn't want to spend much. Like I said, it does the job--even if it's messy at times.

works for the price (lyzjnqtpy, FL, 2008-01-12)

This is a good little juicer for the price. It juiced well but requires alot of rime to prep the food and then clean it when youe done. The vegi and fruit pieces have to be cut very small to fit down the shoot. The motor is strong and does not hesitate to grind the food. However where the juice falls into can tip easily and is not convienent to pour into a glass. Also the entire machine ends up with pulp all over it and it is really difficult to get the residue out of the grinding screen thingy.
