Advantages: Powerful, easy to use

Disadvantages: Nightmare to clean, needs too much fruit.

I've had this juicer for a year now. It has 2 speed settings of which I only ever use the most powerful so I don't see the need for 2. The Juice jug is a decent size but not the most robust. Cleaning brush is handy to get at all the bits left after the process. All removable parts are dishwasher safe which isn't as useful as it sounds because it's easier to wash by hand since the pulp gets everywhere and blocks the dishwasher filter.

Good Points: This powerful juicer is quick to juice with the minimum of effort. Whole fruit such as apples and tomatoes fit easily into the feed tube. It's easy to assemble and there is a large pulp container to collect the waste.

Drawbacks: Juicing in general is pretty expensive because it takes so much fruit just to make one glass of juice. The cleaning of this machine takes longer than the juicing and this is probably why mine just sits in a cupboard gathering dust!

Summary: You need to be dedicated but if you are then this is a good product.
