Advantages: quick,easy to use, easy to assemble

Disadvantages: wasteage, messy

my motivation
i am slightly overweight so my doctor recommended that i consume more fruits and vegetables in every meal, so after discovering the health benefits of juicing i bought this machine and was pleasantly surprised. I was happy to find that it was sold at a bargain price and fit in well with my budget.

pros
It takes me about 10 minutes to juice my ingredients after i have prepared them by giving them a rinse.
the machine is very small in size so it is easy to store after use but its size does become an issue when preparing a full day 3 meal juice as this can become a chore. i was happy to see that it was easy to assemble and simple to use. Its motor is very powerful but does struggle with certain vegetables such as large carrots, so to counter this problem i make it a point to per-cut my carrots.


cons
The biggest problem with this machine is that it doesn't fully juice certain ingredients so it does waste. I really hate the cleaning as it does becomes a chore since it becomes so messy. while in use the pulp ends up in the top part rather than the pulp container and leaves the pulp dry. i find that it is better to find recipes to include the pulp so that the wastage is reduced

Summary: cheapest on the market but good value
