(More customer reviews)Let me start by saying that this juicer makes excellent juice and is a lot easier to use than the 25-year old Big OJ juicer that I was using. I squeeze oranges and tangerines for my woman and I each night. So I use the juicer every day and the better design of this juicer has led me to squeeze more fruit than before.
The big lever drives the top piston onto the fruit and with one motion an orange or tangerine half gets well squeezed leaving little juice left in the pulp.
But there are a few areas that quickly stand out as being parts that could be easily improved. Let me add here that I am a quality professional and I often see potential improvements in products that others don't seem to mind or notice--until it is pointed out to them. Nevertheless here are some things that hold this back from being a great product. The actual lever arm can wobble from side to side. A small change in the design and manufacturing would make the arm totally stable and probably even more effective. The bottom holder or drain where the fruit is placed has two pieces, one is shaped like a drain and the other is convex to match the shape of the plunger that squeezes the fruit. And these two pieces, the drain and the convex holder are loosely held together. At times the convex holder sticks to the fruit and is pulled up and away from the drain. The tolerance of the two parts has to be lessened and some kind of clicking mechanism needs to be put in here to keep the two in place. Once again I do not think this is a big deal, and a small change could solve the problem.
The drain also does not click onto the base and the paint shows some chipping. This is not a very high quality item because of these small details even though it does get the job done.
The final comment is that for most households this size is probably too big. I keep it under a counter and I have been told that I am the only one who will be bringing it up from under the counter to the top of the counter.
The product is good and works but a few small improvements could make this a great product.
