I think I got a dud...,

I was looking forward to using this juicer....unfortunately I think I got a dud. I've read similar reviews on the BMJ330 on both Amazon and Bed, Bath, & Beyond.
The machine rattled from the get-go (SEE VIDEO). Not just a light rattle, rather an obnoxious and completely unbearable rattle. Through some diagnosing I figured out that the stainless steel pulp basket wasn't rotating true, so it was hitting the sides of the top cover. That would explain that slight smell of burning plastic.....Strike 1.
Minus the terrible rattle....it worked pretty well. The juicing was super-fast! I loved the huge 3" opening.....I don't think I had to cut up anything I put in it. Unfortunately the juicer leaked. After a few minutes of juicing I'd get streaks running down the side of the machine. Strike 2.
Maybe the first two were a cause of user error? Possibly assembled wrong? As an engineer I'm pretty good with putting things together,...Read more

I used a Breville and this juicer side by side and this juicer got a lot more juice from the same about of carrots. Plus it is quieter than the Breville elite, $50 less and has a 10 year warrantee! You had to push harder to put the food into the tube with the Breville, this one grabs the food by itself and sometimes you have to put a little, but not much. This one is a keeper for life!

Look, it looks great! Love the metal .... tired of plastic anything! I did send it back because it was so loud it actually scared my ten year old. He would run out of the kitchen with his ears plugged. But it worked great.
