L'Equip 215 XL Wide Mouth Juicer - Black

I have done a lot of juicing over the years, starting with a garden-variety model (Oster or something), then moving up to better models till I lost my good one (a L'Equip higher-end) during a move to another state. I decided to start up again after a few years off, and bought the Jack LaLanne base model (~$99). Big mistake - never buy a white juicer! It worked alright but made a mess, including spraying juice all over the place because the spout has no deflection tunnel. Had that one for about a month before I gave it away and looked for my trusty L'Equip, but they don't make that model anymore.

I got this as a gift from my brother and I love it! I've tried others but this one not only fill about 3 mugs of juice, it cleans like a charm. In 5 minutes, everything is washed and done.
