Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer Machine for Fruits and Vegetables with Extra Large Chute, Extractor de Jugos, Black

This is a powerful juicer and was the best value I could find. I'm a picky purchaser and hardly ever buy things impulsively or without investigating a product first. I don't like buying headaches. I've never owned a juicer so I have no context for a comparison. I put stuff into it and it extracts the juice, leaving very dry pulp behind so it appears to do what it claims to do. I don't find it hard to clean at all. It takes me about 15 seconds to assemble the juicer and about 2 minutes to take it apart and clean it when I'm done. It comes with a brush that does a great job cleaning out the centrifugal screen. I throw mine in the dishwasher on the "rinse only" cycle when I'm done cleaning the screen to make sure all the food is off of the parts and that's it. There is a photo on Walmart.com showing a whole apple about to be dropped into the juicer. I wouldn't drop a whole apple into this thing, though the wide opening would certainly accommodate a smaller apple. I cut up my fruits and vegies first because it will reduce the abuse to the motor and components. I would buy this one again.

only had it a month , not a hint of the horror stories of cleaning of juicers . I love it . I juice a gallon at a time . then put residue stuff ( skins and peels) and run that stuff thru my nutri bullet and waalaa no waste. because a lot of the vitamins and nutrients are in the skin/peel. I hope this helps someone.
