Well, I have just made and drunk my very first home-made juice. 2 carrots, half a beetroot, an apple and a big handful of kale. Absolutely perfect. Not one leak. And the leftovers are actually much dryer than I expected. The machine took a little while to put together, but not rocket science. Within five minutes I was juicing away. It does take about ten minutes to make a decent sized glass of juice, as the crunchy veggies need to be chopped up a bit first, which is the only downside. But hey, it's a fraction of the price of an electric one. Overall, this little juicer far exceeded my expectations.
I can feel my life expectancy increasing by the minute :-)

Being new to juicing I spent hours pondering over what type of juicer to buy (online forums show that many other people are struggling with this decision). After all, prices range from £25 to over £1000 for machines that will basically produce the same glass of juice. In the end I went for the cheapest option. The first impression on unpacking this juicer is that it is surprisingly well made; the plastic mouldings are solid and finished to a very high standard of gloss. The machine is easy to put together although I did start off with a leak due to putting 2 washers in the nozzle by mistake (there was one already fitted in the groove, in addition to the generous 2 spares provided). Results vary greatly according to the type of fruit or vegetable used. It seems to require a fairly firm fibrous nature for the screw to work against. Best results have been with pomegranate: a thin dry pencil-like rod of crushed seeds emerges from the front nozzle and 100% of the juice is easily collected. At the other end of the spectrum soft pre-cooked beetroot just resulted in a slushy mess that went round and round in the chamber yielding no juice at all. Other fruits are in between. You need to adjust the tightness of the nozzle as you juice, according to the resistance felt as the fibrous waste builds up. What is remarkable is the quality and appearance of the fresh juices produced. Spinach yields a pure green juice that is almost fluorescent, and the taste of any juice is fresh and zingy and miles better than anything you can buy in a carton from a supermarket, even if it claims to be "freshly squeezed" (but is invariably pasteurised). I was concerned that the polycarbonate parts might contain hazardous BPA but they are stated to be "FDA-approved" which I assume means that they do not. All in all this juicer is a lot of fun and a good learning experience. It isn't the best juicer out there but for very little money it'll show you whether juicing is for you or not.
Comment added after longer use: I've grown to love this little machine! It works faultlessly and is very easy to clean (just a rinse under the tap is all that is needed as long as you dismantle it immediately after use). My wife and I took it on holiday to enjoy fresh juice every day, it went in my hand luggage and there was no problem going through airport security at London Gatwick. I've upgraded my rating from 4 star to 5 stars.

As long as you read and follow the instructions this juicer does a superb job. You have to tighten it properly but it is sturdy, it works so simply and squishes the wheatgrass really well. Delivered on time and well wrapped, instructions clear and the spare bits and bobs show real forethought. Great job.

i have this juicer from 3 weeks now , i'm using it every day , and i'm very pleased ... i juice beetroot , carrot , apple , celery , cucumber , wheat grass , works perfect ... super pleased ,
I just wanted to say that this is a little gem that fits together ever so easily, takes up no space and is completely portable. Most importantly however, it is brilliant at extracting all those wonderfully healthy 'green' juices - something that most other juicers really struggle with, getting all clogged up etc.
And it's also a doddle to clean!
It can cope with other fruits/veg of course, but this is what it really excels at.

I purchased this to juice my wheat grass, and have been using it for 9 months now. I was concerned that it wouldn't work well because it is quite light weight with a lot of plastic parts, but this juices great. It clamps on to counter tops and doesn't budge.
One warning: if you do not tighten the parts well when putting it together you can get leaks. Make sure to take it apart and wash after every use and let completely air dry.

I wasn't too sure it would be able to juice carrots and other harder vegetables. It does, it's excellent and well designed. It is time consuming though but considering an electric one will set you back hundreds, it's a great introduction to cold pressing. I am looking forward to taking this on holiday!
I wanted a juicer to mainly juice vegetables, including leafy greens, which meant I was looking for a non-centrifugal model, most masticating and twin gear juicers are very expensive though. Given the price I decided to give this little juicer a go, I wasnt expecting too much given the price. Anyway, this arrived yesterday and i have now used it last night and this morning, I have put carrot, apple and spinach through it so far and it has coped very well with all 3 giving a good amount of juice and pretty dry pulp. It is easy to use ( although you do have to do some prep on the produce ) and very easy to clean, it's also small. light and stores very easily rather than cluttering up a workspace. I am very happy to have got what i see as a real bargain.
