Fresh Juice, Easy to Make and Clean Up,
February 19, 2011 Daniel G. Lebryk (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Big Boss Juicer, 700W 18,000 RPM (Kitchen)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This juicer is a surprisingly easy to use and clean, relatively compact, handsome machine. There is enough power to juice just about any fruit or vegetable. This machine makes pulp free juice. Drinking juice made from ingredients that I choose myself is a wonderful thing - there are no mystery chemicals or additives unless I put them in myself. The only caution, fresh homemade juice shouldn't be kept for days, there is just too much opportunity for food safety issues.
Compared to our Jack LaLanne juicer (Jack LaLanne JLPJB Power Juicer Juicing Machine), the Big Boss is so much better. The Big Boss is smaller, lighter, easier to clean, quieter, and doesn't spit all over the kitchen when it runs. For the first running, I suited up with an apron, towel on the floor, cleared off the counter and thought about putting on safety glasses...Read more

Good Budget Juicer,

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
The Big Boss Juicer is a good introductory model if you are just starting juicing and are feeling your way around.
Inexpensive, reasonably compact, and at just over 9 lbs, it has good weight which helps stability and makes it less likely to tip over when the motor is working hard. It has a 2- speed, 700-watt motor which is decent, just not heavy duty. (A 1200 -1500 watt unit would handle a heavier burden and would bite harder, and be likely to outlive its limited 1 year warranty). Because of the plastic housing, I must assume the gears are also plastic. The large 3-inch feeder tube reduces prep time as larger pieces can be inserted. There is no pulp regulator so you vary the amount of juiced pulp after pulverizing by adding back liquid and blending to achieve desired consistency.
Like other extractors, the Big Boss Juicer uses a fast whirling disk to cut fruit and vegetables into tiny pieces and then spins to separate juice from pulp. Once separated from the...Read more

Excellent high-ish end juicer - simple to use & works great!!,

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I was pleasantly surprised when I openend the box and pulled the juicer out - it's relatively compact, all-in-one, with no loose parts to lose, which is a big plus. It's also a 700 watt juicer, which is higher than many but not at the highest end of juicers: it's a pretty high end Stainless Steel juicer, and looks to be put together quite well!
Juicing: I ran quite a few fruits and one vegetable thru: I juiced 8 clementines (I pulled the peels off not wanting the bitter flavor), 2 carrots, 2 Honeycrisp apples, 1 Red Delicious apple and 2 lemons (peels & all, although I did cut off the ends). Everything went thru smoothly, filling the pulp/discard container, and I got great juice (and a bit of foam) out the other end! I mixed clementines, carrots & lemons for a fun mixed juice. This juicer is simple to use, simple to follow instructions, simple to clean (although it's a lot of work to take it apart & clean all the parts, so keep that in mind when juicing on the go). I...Read more
