Hamilton Beach 67650 Big Mouth Pro Juice Extractor

Before I started juicing, I did a lot of research on juicing and what kind of juicer to get and ultimately decided to get an inexpensive juicer to start with. After reading a lot of reviews, I finally went this juicer and I'm glad I did. PROS: Price - You really can't beat the price for such a good juicer, especially if you're just getting into it and not wanting to spend a lot of money. This juicer will give you a great first experience with juicing, and you can always upgrade. Durability - I bought mine back in April of this year, and even after using almost every single day since, I'm amazed at how well it's holding up. I haven't had any problems with it so far. I do cut up almost everything I put it in though (apples into quarters, large cucumber slices, etc.), which I believe helps. Cleaning - As long as you rinse it off right after you use it, then it's only a few minutes to clean since it all comes apart easily (into about 5 pieces). It also comes with a scrub brush for cleaning, which makes cleaning the tiny holes in the metal basket much easier. CONS: Efficiency - This juicer does great with the more solid fruits and veggies, but if you want to really be efficient, then you might want to put some of that juicier pulp through another time. When I do carrots, the pulp comes out pretty dry. Something like a cucumber isn't quite as dry as I'd like, but dry enough I'm fine with not putting it through again. I juiced a small watermelon a few weeks ago, and after putting the pulp through about 3 times and even taking out the metal basket and unclogging it during the process, I ended up with only about a quarter cup of pulp. So it's possible to make it more efficient, but it might take a few more steps than other juicers. Greens - While it can do kale and spinach and the like, you're just not going to get as much juice out of it as you would with a masticating juicer. However that's part of what you're paying for (or lack thereof), since those kinds of juicers would be hundreds of dollars more. It's still a powerful juicer, so a good few handfuls of kale makes about a shot glass of juice. I don't mind this though because then you can do kale shots! Yum. Overall, this is a great juicer that I haven't had any major complaints about. I've recommended it to quite a few friends who are also happy with it, and happy with the price. Even for a juice-savvy person, I think this juicer is a great one and would be a great replacement as long as you're not used to doing too many greens-heavy juices.

Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer / B000FHQJ6C I bought this juicer back in 2009 and have used it less than I'd hoped (more on that in a minute) but often enough to feel that the purchase was worth it. When a Kuvings NJ-9500U Centrifugal Juice Extractor came up on Vine, I figured I was well-placed to review an expensive juicer and contrast it with the cheaper stuff on the market, and post the same essential review in both places. But I'll just cut to the chase right here: as a hobbyist juicer who just wants to whirl the juice out of a handful of fruits, I cannot honestly tell that much of a difference between the expensive Kuvings and the half-price Hamilton -- the Kuvings is better in some ways, but it's not twice as good in proportion to being twice as expensive. * Parts: Both the juicers have mostly the same basic parts: base (with cord and buttons), whirl-er (where the mesh screen sits and the juice comes out), pulp-bucket (where the waste goes), top (where the fruit is fed), and piston (to help jam the fruits through the top and to the whirl-er. But I was surprised to see that the juice pitcher that came standard with the Hamilton is NOT included with the Kuvings; you have to supply your own bowl for the juice to pour into, and since our bowl was wide and uncovered, the new juice pouring in caused the existing juice to splash lightly all over the nearby counter, which I found quite annoying. Advantage: Hamilton. * Weight: The juicers take up about the same footprint on the counter, in terms of width and height. The immediate obvious difference is that the Kuvings is plastic and lighter, whereas the Hamilton is heavier and uses stainless steel clamps. The lighter Kuvings is easier to carry, but I don't know how sturdy the clamps will be over time. Personally, I care more about weight than about sturdiness (we tend to 'baby' our appliances in general). Advantage: Kuvings * Assembly: The Kuvings is more fussy at assembly time; the pulp-bucket has to be sort of tilted up and in and snapped into the top before then being tilted down and sideways to snap into the bottom. The Hamilton, in contrast, just has the pulp-bucket sit flush to the side and the top secures it in place. Advantage: Hamilton. * Speeds: The Kuvings has two speeds, regular and turbo; the Hamilton only has one. Since I only use fruits with my juicers (and therefore only use the regular speed on the Kuvings), I can't say whether the turbo speed is worth the extra cost. That's something to look into if you're planning to use really tough veggies in your juices. Advantage: Neither / Depends. * Noise: The Kuvings boasts a 350-watt motor while the Hamilton uses an 800-watt motor. I do think the Kuvings is less noisy, but not proportionately so and not so much that it doesn't still mightily startle the cats. What I am saying is, when you are using the Kuvings, the rest of the house is aware that you are using the Kuvings. And when you are using the Hamilton, the rest of the house is aware that you are using a slightly louder version of the Kuvings. Neither of them are so loud that the neighbors will hear, nor so soft that you won't disturb your napping husband. Advantage: Kuvings. * Cleaning: Cleaning is the major reason I don't juice more often, and it's an area where I think improvement is possible. The only thing that doesn't need to be cleaned after juicing is the base (unless it got dripped on, which does happen); the whirl-er, piston, pulp-bucket, and juice pitcher will all need cleaning. (I did see recommended in another review that the pulp-bucket be lined with a plastic bag, which is a good idea I will try next time.) This means that if you want a quick juice on your way in to work, you have to assemble the juicer, run the juicer, unassemble the juicer, and either wash everything or at least put all four parts in the sink to soak. If you skip the unassemble-and-wash steps, you will come home to a sticky caked-on mess that will be a nightmare to clean. And since none of this is particularly fast, it means that your 'quick juice' is going to be a 20-minute proposition. No, that doesn't mean that the juicers are "hard" to clean, but it does take time -- or at least it does for us. (Maybe the rest of you have super-speed powers. If so, please come wash my dishes?) Both the Kuvings and the Hamilton use the mesh-screen whirl-er and that little guy is a fright to get clean. Husband -- who does the dishes in our family -- has declared after a great deal of consideration that the Kuvings mesh is slightly faster to scrub clean than the Hamiltons mesh, so I will award the advantage on his say-so but with the caveat that the Kuvings mesh still took several minutes of scrubbing to clean. (Husband also registers a concern that the Kuvings cleaning brush doesn't seem very sturdy. But we'll cross that bridge when we get there.) Advantage: Kuvings. * Juiciness: Both the Hamilton and the Kuvings juiced the heck out of a collection of apples and clementines, and in both cases the pulp was very dry afterward. And in both cases there was a lot of flecky foam that can either be strained with a cheesecloth or can be stirred in and drunk. We saw no difference in actual juicing performance between the two juicers. Advantage: Neither / Identical Performance. --- I'm pretty sure that if you add everything up mathematically, the Kuvings comes out as better than the Hamilton. But the advantage overall is pretty slight -- the Kuvings is lighter, but seems more in danger of breakage; the Kuvings is less noisy, but not super-noticeably so; the Kuvings takes a minute less to clean but a minute more to assemble; and so forth -- and for twice the price I'm more than a little irked that there's no juice pitcher included because it means that if you don't have a bowl or glass that can fit under the juice nozzle, then you'll have to make another trip to the store. If you're a first time juicer and aren't sure how much you will use your new appliance, I would recommend starting with the Hamilton and seeing how you like it and whether the excessive clean-up process is a turn-off for you. But I would recommend buying the Kuvings over the Hamilton if: * You have strict weight-lifting limits. (I have a bad back.) * You intend to pulp a large volume and/or tough veggies. (Turbo speed!) * You need a less-noisy motor for medical reasons. Otherwise, I think both juicers are very good and do the job they're meant to do. ~ Ana Mardoll

I received my Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro today (five days via free shipping from Amazon.) As with another item I ordered recently from Amazon, the price of the juicer is now $5 cheaper. I hate when that happens. It's only been a week, for crying out loud! I'd done a lot of research on reasonably priced juicers, including reading all the reviews here at Amazon, before deciding on the HB BMP. For the past couple of months pre-purchase, I'd been juicing using my small food processor and a blender - and then straining the blended vegetables in order to get my drink. I had to add distilled water to the blender in order for it to blend well, thus diluting the juice. Still tasted fine, but I was eager to get a taste of undiluted juice extracted vegetables. Upon unpacking the HB BMP, I made sure to read the short instructions, and then I carefully dismantled the machine and washed all the parts except the base, paying careful attention to the cutting basket. ***Please note that if the cutting basket gets warped or dented or bent in any way, according to the book, it can apparently destroy the machine and send plastic parts flying everywhere.*** As some other buyer noted a little earlier in the comments, his machine did just that. So, I handled the cutting basket carefully, and when I put everything back together I made sure that the cutting basket was firmly secure in its place. You have to press down on it slightly to make sure that it isn't just sitting there. In other words, don't just plop it down and then put the top on - I think that's how it can destroy your machine. BTW, I don't have a dishwasher, but I wouldn't put any of these parts in the dishwasher where they could warp or change in some way; it's up to you, but I wouldn't take the chance. Also make sure you securely snap down the two metal holders on the side of the machine. And don't forget to put a small baggie in the pulp container, as suggested by many here in this thread and in the HB instructions. I turned on the machine to process my first batch of vegetables, and while the machine does make a vacuum cleaner kind of sound, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. I slowly dropped in my baby carrots, plunged them down with the plunger, and everything started to go as I had hoped: juice came out one end, pulp was extracted and dumped into the pulp bin. Now, while this may be a Big Mouth, I, of course, had to dice the apple since it wouldn't fit down the chute. I inserted one piece at a time and was kind of surprised it took the plunger (applied somewhat gently) a few seconds for the apple to be fully extracted. Happened with each piece; didn't seem very "automatic" like the carrots, but then, of course, it was thicker. The celery went okay as did the parsley (though since parsley is so thin, there are tiny pieces flung into the pulp bin). When I turned off the machine and checked the pulp, I did notice that it seemed moist (I think others had mentioned that their pulp was also moist), and a few pieces of sliced apple about the size of my thumb had not processed and neither had a couple parsley stems. I took the cutting basket off the machine, brushed and rinsed the basket, and put the machine back together. I wanted to see if running the pulp back through the machine would do anything. Well, it did - the pulp came out very dry this time round and I got a bit more juice. Not a lot, but just a bit more. It cut up those extra pieces in the pulp, too. And, like I did when I used my food processor and blender, I made sure to get the HB plastic parts washed off of pulp sediment very quickly; ditto the cutting basket (and then I put it in soapy water to soak while I drank my juice). For this drink, I got about 12 ounces of juice, which is certainly big enough for me. I poured the juice into a chilled glass and then back into the plastic "glass" that came with the machine, and then back into the chilled glass. There didn't seem to be a lot of foam/froth, which is a good thing, but if you pour it back and forth like this, it definitely will lower what foam there is. I took a drink. WOW. I'm in love. Just a wonderful taste. I did notice that the juice seemed to be a bit thicker than I thought it would be - but then again, I was used to applying distilled water to my juice in order for my blender to blend it correctly. Overall, I'd say my first experience with the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro was pretty good. Something to keep in mind is - this isn't an expensive Breville or a masticating juicer that most likely will do a bang up job of extracting juice for a few hundred dollars - and indeed, some very high end extractors can run in the thousands! This is a decent juicer, from what I can tell from my first experience, for the money paid. Pulp most likely isn't going to be bone dry (unless you run it back through the machine), and there are bound to be some bits and pieces of the vegetables that aren't going to get cut up in the basket. But it will deliver a good glass of juice - and for me, right now it beats the food processor/blender/strainer bag routine I had been doing for the past two months. I plan to juice at least once a day, so if things change with the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro within the next month, I'll come back here and update my review. **UPDATE** New Remarks a few days after I posted this review: I've used the Big Mouth Pro every day (it's only been a few days), sometimes twice a day. I'm happy to report that the machine seems to be taking all vegetables with ease, and the pulp, depending on what I'm juicing, comes out quite dry (with no need to run the pulp back through the juicer). I think the key is to not rush anything - try to be gentle as you go with the plunger. It even does leafy red tipped lettuce stalks and kale perfectly. The only thing I don't like, of course, is cleaning the cutting basket. But I went back and read other comments at the more expensive juicers and it seems they have this same complaint. I was complaining to myself loudly about this, but then, I realized today that I had to soak the basket (in hot soapy water) longer than five to 10 minutes. When I soak it about 30 or more minutes, the pulp brushes off pretty easily. You still have to brush it all off, but I truly noticed a difference when I soaked the basket longer - brushing about 3 to 4 minutes instead of the intense 10 minute routine I'd been having to do. Hope this lasts awhile. I'm truly enjoying the fresh taste of juice. (P.S. If possible, I'm amending my rating from 4 stars to 5 stars since thus far I'm very pleased with the product.) **January 2013 Update**: Back to report that the Hamilton Beach juicer is still going strong! I've used it nearly every day since purchasing it, once a day, to juice (mainly) carrots, celery, ginger, cucumbers, apples. I also regularly juice oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines. You can, of course, juice many other vegetables and fruit, but those listed above are my favorites. No issues with the juicer (just make sure that you substitute a larger receptacle if you are juicing a lot at one time), and cleaning the basket has become routine/easy. **April 2013 Update**: I just need to add that I am beginning to notice a deterioration of the sharpness of the centrifugal cutting blades which only started this past month. As mentioned, I've used it nearly every day since purchase, and I take good care of the juicer. What the juicer is now doing is not pulping carrots completely; I'm finding inch long, flat shards in the pulp catcher. Just an FYI. I still love the juicer, however.

After doing a lot of research I ended up with this juicer. I was actually set on the Breville after watching Fat, Sick, & Nearly Dead. After reading reviews of food getting stuck in the strainer, being hard to clean, and also the strainer becoming damage and the price of replacing it, I opted to do some further research. The Hamilton Beach juicer had positive ratings similar to the Breville, with the exception this one was about 3 times cheaper! I am so glad I ended up with this juicer! My mom owns a Norwalk, the Holy Grail of juicers. However, I would choose the Hamilton Beach juicer over the Norwalk for one simple reason... IT'S QUICK TO USE AND EASY TO CLEAN! I have this thing cleaned within a few minutes! It takes longer to clean the veggies than it does to clean this juicer. Its also very powerful. Albeit a bit loud, but not enough to sway my decision otherwise. The pulp is very dry when all is said and done which means you are getting the most juice out of your fruits and veggies. I highly recommend this juicer for the following reasons: 1. The cost 2. Wise mouth (saves time on cutting if you even need to) 3. FAST CLEAN UP!!! 4. And an awesome job at what it was meant to do....JUICE! ***UPDATED 2/4/13 Ive owned this thing well over a year and have used it EVERYDAY since, and the original blade and the whole unit itself are still going strong. I think if I get a new blade it will juice even better, but it is still fine. I just notice that the discards are full with a little more juice than when the blade was brand new. But for 25 bucks for a new blade, you cant beat that price. And like I mentioned, I still get a decent amount of juice with the original blade, so I will stick with it until it kicks the bucket which I dont see happening anytime soon! Rock on Hamilton Beach!

At first glance I really liked this item. I received it quickly, packaging was great, the juice extractor works as advertised, its not annoyingly loud (though you cannot really use this near sleeping kids or spouse). It does clean easily considering the 'mess' it makes... and if you soak the strainer/blade and use brush it actually cleans quite well. You *must* rinse off five parts immediately after every use. You also must clean screen/blade between 16oz batch for best results. So, while I feel this is a very good value, the bottom line is for me, its a waste of money. Here's why. As I have tried to save $$ and learn the hard way, a Centrifugal Juicer is mostly a waste of money. If you want to try a Centrifugal Juicer, this is probably a very good choice and I encourage you to try for yourself. However, note these problems: 1. a LOT of waste. and a lot of mess, a little tiny bit flies out the top 2. Make a tomato juice... let it sit for few minutes and you'll notice the bottom half is clear water, the top half is tomato... and there is about 30% sitting in the 'pulp' dump. 3. Its loud, though not annoyingly loud, but since you cannot make juice at any time other than just before you drink it, the nose would seem to be a problem for anyone not living alone 4. Most of the nutrients are in the solid parts of fruits and vegetables, not the water and you loose nearly all of that with Centrifugal Juicers. 5. You get the taste of vegetable juice, and its MUCH healthier than any processed, store-bought juice, but its missing the point 6. You cannot use this with anything soft, good blender/processor works much better and you don't throw away the healthy stuff 7. You cannot really re-feed the pulp... its messy and the screen/blade is already partial plugged... the more you use the screen/blade, the less effective it is at not wasting. Ironically, I was using my old HD blender with glass pitcher at same time to make fruit smoothies... I think the blender did a better job.. I ended up taking pulp and juice from this and putting it into my blender. Then my old (10yr+) blender died... and I tried making everything with this Centrifugal Juicer and it just wasn't right. I tried about 10 different recipes (6 veggie, 2 fruit, 2 mix) and it just didn't blow me away.... I will say the veggy juice tasted better than I expected and I will continue trying to add vegetables back into my diet. So, in the end I'm returning it (5 stars to amazons return policies) and ordered a new Vitamix 5200 blender and Omega Nutrition Center Heavy Duty Masticating Juice Extractor. The omega will be a lot slower but it looks just as easy to clean, will be much quieter, and it won't waste the good stuff. The Vitamix 5200 was expensive but I read over 150 reviews of top blenders under $200 and they all had flaws.. it seemed to me best to spend $20-$40 or go for a best blender possible. BTW, the Vitamix 5200 was cheaper from vitamix.com and you can use 06-006207 code for free S&H. So, my suggestion is do not waste your money on a Centrifugal Juicer.... HOWEVER if you really want to try a Centrifugal Juicer because of speed and lower cost then I would recommend this item (confused yet?).

I have juiced on and off for many years, so I have owned many juicers. I am always on the lookout for a great juicer with lots of power. The other three juicers that I own have the smaller chute for adding fruit and vegetables. It is such a pain to have to cut everything up before you can put it in the juicer, plus it yields less juice this way. I have been looking for a juicer with a wide mouth chute. After much debate over this juicer and a Breville juice fountain, I finally decided to give the Hamilton Beach a try. The price was better and some of the reviews were even better. Also the motor was a little faster than the Breville. In the past I have always bought high end juices like the Omega, so I didn't know what I was getting myself into with the Hamilton Beach. It arrived today, and I immediately decided to try it out. I really like the way it is put together and how the pulp catcher pretty much locks into place. It is also a very sturdy built machine. I was amazed by how much juice came out of a whole apple. I have never got that much juice out of my other machines. It juiced the apple with great ease also. There was also very little pulp left. The pulp wasn't dry like with my Omega, but it wasn't wet either. It juiced every fruit and vegetable that I tried with ease, and produced a lot more juice than any of my other juicers. It is also easy to take apart and clean. I recommend cleaning immediately though, so the pulp doesn't dry out on the blade. This is probably my new favorite juicer over my Omega due to the wide mouth chute. I would have bought another Omega with a wide mouth chute if I wanted to pay $300, but this one works just fine with a great price tag. I highly recommend the Hamilton Beach 67650H. It's definitely a keeper!

I read the reviews on this juicer and wondered why some gave rave reviews and others gave this juicer rotten reviews. Since most of the reviews were positive, I decided to take a chance and buy it. I'm glad I did. The Decision - Out of all the top reviewed juicers on Amazon, Epinion, Best-Juicer-Reviews, and ConsumerSearch, this had the longest warranty (1 yr), highest horsepower motor (1.1 hp) and lowest price ($69). All of the top rated juicers have wide mouths (3+ in) and are dishwasher safe. This is why I bought it. The juicers I looked at were Breville BJE 200XL, 800 JEXL, BJE 510XL, Jack Lalanne power juicer and Hamilton Beach 67650. The Good - It juices fast, it is easy to clean (5 min by hand, no dishwasher), and is inexpensive. Most of all, it saves me time. I could eat fast food (no more cooking and cleaning as this is dishwasher safe) without having to eat fattening drive-thru food. It is fast and nutritious. The Bad - It is not cheap to operate because you waste a lot of food in the pulp, especially if you make juice from soft fruits and vegetables. If you are making juice from hard stuff, it will be very efficient. The pulp will be a fine, moist dust. There is very little waste. However, if you are making juice from soft fruit, it will make a lot of soft, mushy wasted pulp. This juicer is perfect for hard stuff like carrots and broccoli stems. For soft stuff like watermelon and spinach leaves, I'll use my blender instead. Or, you could try re-juicing the pulp to extract more juice out of it. Or you could do what I do to avoid wasting the juicy pulp: I feed my dog the pulp. The Conclusion - The faults with this juicer are not faults with this particular model, but a fault with all centrifugal juicers (spinning knife blade used to juice). A masticulating juicer would produce less waste but would be much slower to operate. It takes a much longer time to make a cup of juice with a masticulating (grinding gears) juicer. A citrus juicer makes citrus juice only. A perfectionist or very frugal person would probably opt for less wet pulp waste by buying a masticulating juicer such as an Omega 8005. A person with a busy lifestyle would probably prefer a fast juicer that is easy to clean like this one. A person who drinks citrus juice a lot would probably buy a citrus juicer. If you are making wheat grass juice, then buy a wheat grass juicer. Depending on what you need, you may get a different juicer. However, for the price, it is impossible to get a better general purpose juicer. I will re-review this juicer in a year to give a report on it's durability. Update: 6 months after the purchase, a friend of mine "borrowed" it and never returned it. I haven't visited this friend in a while so I don't know how it's holding up. For what it's worth, it can stand up to at least 6 months of daily use.

This has got to be the best kitchen gadget i have ever bought, period. No price factor even included. This is my second juicer, my last one was an 80's model ACME hand-me-down from my parents (which still is running hard enough to juice steel). I've been juicing on and off for a year or so, but couldn't keep it up due to the pain in the a.. factor. That is no more. This juicer will juice anything! After recieveing the H.B. 67650, I instantly started it up and juiced about everything i could find. It does awesome! You can juice whole, not peeled, lemons, limes, potatoes, and yet it still does good with light stuff, like spinach or romaine. I always put whole apples in there and within about 5-7 seconds and some pushing, POP!, its ready for more. Cleaning is as easy as can be. Drop the handles, pull off the top, scoop stuff into the mini trash can (ALWAYS put a schnucks or walkmart white bag in there), pull up on the mesh bowl and bottom spout, bammm. Rinse scrub and done! The down sides, im really digging to find something here, is that its loud. Comparable to a 747 running in your kitchen. But thats to be expected. If you want quiet, then mash everything by hand then strain it and see where that gets you. The other down side is that when you juice some things, like green bell peppers or celery, the juice is super frothy. Its not the end of the world. I juice everything into a couple of cups (it does come with a cup-esque thing) then I let it sit while i clean everything and mess around for a few minutes. I come back to it and spoon off the top till its just juice, then mix and drink. In summary, my mom has a brevell something or another which is by far like a bently or mercedes of juicers. It also costs about as much. They run $250-$1500. She paid ~$450 for hers, granted it is solid stainless everything and mean mean mean. I swear it can juice marble. But thats what you would expect. This juicer is not for 'beginners'. It is for someone who has their mind right and wants to have a ton of energy and health without blowing thier money trying to do it. You will love it and i guarantee if you dont, give it to someone else, they will.

Fantastic product for its price range. Juicers are in high demand nowadays due to the cleanse craze and it's hard to find a decent one on a budget. The product is incredibly easy to assemble and disassemble, yields a good amount of juice with no pulp (although it is hard to get a lot out of leafy greens like spinach and kale, although I'm not sure if that's the problem of this particular juicer or just the nature of juicing these types of veggies) with minimal clean up (does not take me more than a minute). I read a complaint about the loudness, but honestly I don't find it to be loud at all. It is actually much quieter than a blender, or the Magic Bullet that I also use. Overall, great juicer for under $90; absolutely satisfied!

I've had this juicer for a couple of months now and have been using it almost every day and it continues to work top notch. This juicer has a very good motor with a lot of power and speed. So, with that said, you should make sure that you put in the correct amount of produce to prevent the veg or fruit from bouncing around as this juicer has a large enough opening to take in 3 or 4 carrots at a time. If you leave too much space they will bounce around in there from the power and speed of the grinder. This juicer is designed to juice fairly large amounts of veg or fruit quickly. Some other people have mentioned that you can put a produce bag in the pulp catcher to speed up the cleaning of this unit and they are correct, as it does make a difference. Cliff - Ontario

Easy to use and clean, but it's very noisy. We've been using it for two years, it's a very reliable product but since we moved in to a condo we can't really use it past certain time because of the noise it makes otherwise it's a very good prodcut

I've been juicing apples with this and it juices them without even flinching! This is my first juicer so I don't know the standards for cleaning... but I find it hard to clean the pulp from the blade/strainer. The holes are so fine that I am constantly trying to push the bristles of the cleaning brush through to unclog the pulp. I''d use this product a lot more if it weren't for the cleaning hassle. Also, the tip from others to use a bag in the pulp bin is a good idea!

Wow, this machine has power to spare. The pulp left over is almost completely dry so your getting all the liquid. Easy to clean with included brush, about 2 minutes for me. I've seen lesser units out and about for much more than amazon is selling this great unit for. I was very surprised veggies could be so appealing when liquefied.
