Kuvings GMPD9010U Combo Blender and Juicer

I used this juicer, and the blender, for the first time this morning and I was satisfied with it's performance. I didn't realize how messy juicing could be! However, the machine is VERY easy to assemble/disassemble, and I had no problem just rinsing off the pulp from all the pieces under warm, soapy water. I'm not sure the blender can puree fruits/foods though. So, I wouldn't rely just on this blender, have an extra one somewhere if you're a heavy blender user.

Other than that, I threw together an iced fruit juice using the juice of 2 peeled oranges (supposedly you don't have to peel them, but I chose to), and around three handfuls of champagne grapes.

I have been looking around the small kitchen appliance for a while. This product catched my eye the most. Since i needed a blender, this product has a juicer feature as well for the similar price range. Like jack power juicer, it is around 100 dollar for just the juicer, but this one has blender as well. It works great and I am very satisfied with this product. It is also fun to make juice recipe.
