juices well, but clean-up is annoying
By Eugenia A. Van Bremen
I bought this juicer for an ex-boyfriend & we used it for over two years. It does juice things fairly well. For the low price-tag, you get a pretty good quality product.(One Tip: If you have a lot of plastic grocery bags, putting one in the pulp bucket before using the juicer makes cleanup a lot easier - you can just pull it out, tie it up & toss it. Then the pulp bucket only needs a gentle rinse to clean up.)Having used a number of other juices since, I would like to point out some of the issues that this juicer has that ultimately became a turn-off to me (and made me not-so-sad to see the juicer go away with my ex):- It juices, but it doesn't wring out nearly all the juice - I've found both centrifuge and masticating juicers that wring more juice out.- Clean-up is a pain in the butt - cleaning all the parts takes a lot of time. You should have a little toothbrush to get all the bits of pulp out of the little crevices.- Getting the 'blade/grater' part out can be hard. You have to screw & unscrew it with a special tool - it took us a while to figure out how hard we should screw it in, so that it stays put & does the job, but isn't then impossible to get out to clean.- It stained quickly (and permanently). Not a huge flaw, but still, I don't like having dirty, stained products sitting out on my kitchen counter.Overall, for the price, it's a worthwhile purchase, especially if you're only an occasional user. If there's any possible way you can spring for something a little pricier (especially if you plan on juicing regularly), I'd highly recommend going that route.

Don't buy it- the juicer is a lemon
By Robert K. Haslam
I have the classic juicer- it was given as a gift. It was only functional for less then 2 months. The issue- and you will see this on other review websites, is that the blade is attached to the motor with a plastic threading. Turn just a bit too hard and you strip a fine curl of plastic off of the threading, the blade won't attach to the motor and and the entire unit is unusable. I can get replacements parts of new motor and new blade but at a cost of $60.00. I read multiple other negative reviews of either the same issue or of the motor going out after only a few months of use. I am better off taking my 60 bucks and applying to a different brand with proven durability. Trust me this is flagrant design flaw- it did not take much for me to destroy the threading and disable the unit. So the LaLanne juicer is lemon. I don't know what I will purchase and I am open to suggestions. I love making juice and it was OK at doing just that. But why drop a $100 or more on something that has an established history of breaking after a 2-3 months. Jack LaLanne should be ashamed of himself for peddling this drivel.

just ok.....
By G. SINCLAIR
i bought this juicer about 4 years ago and used it occasionally. this worked out ok for the minimal amount of juicing that i was doing at the time.however, recently i began juicing several times a day to increase my fruit and vegetable consumption and several factors are earning this juicer its low rating:1) the juicer does not perform well on green leafy veggies2) clean up is a bit of a pain and it definitely stains very easily even with immediate rinse and clean up (i don't mind either so much but just mentioning it for others to be aware of)3) blades seem to dull over time4) motor is not very powerful5) not the most efficient in extracting maximum amount of juice. the fruit peel that is left is very moist.... (so it requires more fruit to get the same amount of juice compared to a more effective juicer.)6) and most importantly, the blade sits on top of the motor so if you push a bit too hard or overload it, the motor bears the load and burns out...(i've had to replace 2 motors already)the only positive note is the initial low price tag, however if you have to keep replacing the motor (because it will eventually burn out) you might as well get something that is going to cost a little more and save yourself the headache..so, that being said, i am in the market for a more efficient, durable juicer (i refuse to replace the motor a 3rd time) and i am leaning toward a Breville 800JEXL. look for my review on it in a few weeks or so... :-)
