I am an at home care provider. One of my clients had me use this product every week to make him a pitcher of juice. I couldn't believe how easy it was to set up and use. Its incredible!! My client would have all the following made at one time: cucumbers, kiwi, onion, carrots, lemon, red cabbage, fresh beets, and celery. You wouldnt think this would taste good, but WOW I was impressed. I plan on buying my own and I tell everyone I know about the Classic Juicer. It's INCREDIBLE!!

I went thru 2 of these before saying forget it and buying a different brand. Parts kept breaking and it was very expensive to buy the parts. I've had a much cheaper one for years now and it hasn't broken. Buyer beware!

In all, this juicer is very handy in the production of juices and sauces. But you can't use all types of fruits/vegetables (ie. bananas). Could have a storage compartment for the blade wrench and power cord. Occupies a lot of counter space if not used on a regular basis.

My husband heard about this juicer from co-workers (all males)! They all raved about it and recommended it as the only juicer to purchase.
No problems with jamming, as others have mentioned in reviews, as long as you use common sense by using adequate sizes of fruit and veggies. One tip for easier clean up is to line the "catch basin" with a plastic grocery bag. This allows for all skins and excess to fill the bag eliminating scraping/washing of the catch basin.

I only had the power juicer for about a week and the pusher tube swelled and I could not push down the food items. [...] I am dissapointed.

This juicer is very easy to use, can handle just about any fruit and/or vegetable to put in there, and is quick! It allows me to get my daily servings of fruits & veggies with just 1-2 glasses each day. The increase in energy is undeniable! The only con is that you MUST clean it right away to avoid stains from the various juice colors and you have to chop some items into smaller pieces so as not to jam the blades. All in all though, great product and great life choice!

MOTOR BOGS DOWN. HAS ELECTRICAL ORDOR. TWO YEARS LATER IT DIED. IF YOU HAVE THIS PROBLEM EARLY, I RECOMMEND SEND IT BACK IMMEDIATELY.NOW I MUST GET IT REPAIRED OR REPLACED. MIXED EMOTIONS ON RECOMMENDATION SINCE MOST ALL MY OTHER ELECTRICAL APPLAINCES LAST TEN YEARS. INSERT A PLASTIC BAG IN CATCH CONTAINER FOR EASIER CLEANING. A BRUSH SHOULD COME WITH THIS TO CLEAN FILTER.

In the beginning I loved this juicer. Fast and effortless. However the blade is soft steel and wore down quickly. I have searched many sites and have not found a replacement blade for this model. I'm angry as now I have a useless [$] juicer.

Perfect for fresh orange or grapefruit juice.

I use my juicer mostly for juice and smoothies. The taste is great. Fresh is so much better than bottled or frozen. Only negative to me are that the mesh basket is hard to clean.
