Advantages: Quick and powerful

Disadvantages: Cleaning is fiddly

This juicer is very good in that it is very powerful. There is no need to cut fruit or veg up, just chuck the whole orange/apple or whatever in. The juice comes out the front tube and the skin/piltch etc is collected in a seperate box at the back which is detachable. It is quite noisy due to its power so would prepare smoothies the night before rather than at 6am in the morning for example. The only downfall with this juicer is that it is quite hard work cleaning it. It comes apart in about 5 pieces easy enough but cleaning the blade section is tricky and for this reason I do a weeks worth of smoothies/fresh juice in one go so not cleaning it everyday. Was a bit alarmed when first used it to juice some oranges that there was only about 50mls of juice per orange and I was expecting more, but on tasting it I soon learned that it is mega strong and needs watering down quite a bit. For the money, the power, the ease of just throwing fruit it uncut or peeled this juicer is great! Only possible downfall is the cleaning aspect but then I suspect most juicers are like this so all in all a very good bit of kit to help get some fruit and veg in us!
