I like this juicer a lot. Just bought it at Kohl's today and it works great. I have had about 5 different juicers and I love this one by far out of all the rest. The screen filter is easy to clean. little slits instead of tiny pinholes. The juicer isn't the most powerful and you really need to be gentle when pushing food. You only want the juicer to go at its own pace and you need to let gravity do the pushing. Some things like apples you need to apply a small amount of pressure. With other high powered juicers You can push a whole apple through without a second thought. This one takes a little longer but the result is less foamy and MORE juice. Take your time when juicing with this juicer. If you let gravity do most of the work and lightly assist sometimes even pulling up the plunger and going back down to allow the fruit/veg to popup then go back down and it will juice and not jam. The videos on tips on the Jack Lalanne website from the factory are really useful. They show you how...Read more

I bought this so I could do a little fasting to drop some weight and Im happy with my purchase. Clean up is easy and it looks good in the kitchen lol. Hard to believe there a re bad reviews of this product because mine works perfectly. I guess in one review the guy had the spout closed and filled the machine up with juice lol. You need to have a little common sense but operating this thing is really easy. As long as your not trying to smash fruit/veggies to hell and back with the plunger this thing should last a long time.

I'm so sorry to write this but I can't believe how terrible this juicer is. I had a lovely Braun juicer my mom got me for Christmas in way back in 1993. That thing juiced everything beautifully. I even lugged it with me when I moved to Europe. Just last year a dear friend became ill, so I gave her my old Braun juicer. It still worked perfectly but I figured she needed it and maybe it was time to get a new one. Unfortunately my new juicer is the Jack Lalanne power juicer express. First of all, it constantly stalls. It barely juices beets or carrots... yes, I chop them. I tried to stick some kale in (which the little Braun had no problem with) but it just completely stalled (like it always does). Also, its complicated to put together and the spout isn't high enough if you want to make a large glass of juice. My little Braun juicer took me through my all my raw food juicing years without a hitch. With my new Jack Lalane, I'll have to get an entirely new juicer if I want to go on a juice...Read more
