Cookworks Signature Whole Fruit

I got this in a clearance at Argos for £18 - which was a bargain. I got the extended three year warranty as well for £5, which was still a bargain under the normal price of around £30. Setting it up is easy. The manual recommends taking it apart and putting it back together again a few times, which makes the process easier. There are two strong plastic clasps which hold the whole thing in place firmly when juicing. It is bulky, and will take up quite a bit of the worktop space. There is a chute at the top from which you can just place whole pieces of fruit in - no need to peel, except for citrus fruits. There are two settings - one for soft fruit, ...  Read the complete review

We bought this for £30 in a bid to increase our fruit intake with fresh fruit drinks. After the novelty factor wore off I was left with a pain to clean cumbersome machine that takes up a lot of space in my kitchen and never seems to look clean! I'm pleased it was £30 and not anymore because I've now put it away and can't see me getting it out again unless for special occasions - if then. I don't see the point in the two speed setting as I don't think this is a necessary feature / function. I didn't find it overly difficult to use and have to admit it did do a good job of juicing/blending. This product does have its plus points though for anyone who ...  Read the complete review

I have had this juicer for about 2 years now. I bought it from Argos and it was about £30 at the time. I bought this after I had been using a smaller one as I liked the fact you could put whole fruit in rather than having to cut everything up. It is very easy to use you just drop the fruit in the shoot at the top and it pours the juice into a jug attached to the side, and the pulp into a container for easy disposal. The downside to this juicer is that it doesn't separate all of the juice from the pulp so the juice can feel like it has little bits in. I don't find this to be a problem but others might. It is easy to take apart for ...  Read the complete review

I've had this juicer for about six months now. I previously had a smaller smoothie maker and wanted something that I could just chuck fruit into whole. Overall it is a good product and it can tackle most fruits very efficiently. It has two speeds, one for soft fruit like oranges or mangos and one for hard fruits like pineapples. At the beginning it did get a bit clogged up with fruit when I was processing a large amount, however, I think this was mainly due to my impatience and not the machines capability. Overall it has made me some great tasting juices quickly and easily. It doesn't give you a completely smooth juice but I personally think this is the point of fresh ...  Read the complete review

I bought this juicer with a view to making lovely fresh juice in a jiffy. I have to say that I wish that I had not bought it. I think that it is too big. It sits on my work surface taking up far too much vauable space. It gets dusty and needs wiping over constantly. When in use i feel that it makes far too much washing up. It is messy and complicated to clean. The juice is fine but I feel it is all too much hassle to use. I also feel that its casing etc looks and feels a bit flimsy,though I guess I got what I paid for as this juicer is not particularly expensive. The juicer is also very noisy. My children however think it is wonderful (they dont have to wash up ...  Read the complete review
