I received my Juiceman Jr "chrome" as a gift and have been enjoying it for about a week now, and so far I'm very pleased with it. I used to have a juicer but it was so incredibly loud that I only used it a few times. This one is very powerful but just about as loud as a blender. The juices I've made so far have been really delicious, and now when I'm hungry I find myself making a nice glass of fresh juice whereas before my first inclination was to go for less healthful foods, so I think it will have a lasting positive effect on my overall diet.
There are a couple of negatives I'd like to mention. First, the machine is not made of chrome metal, as the description would lead one to believe. The exterior is all plastic, some parts are just "chrome" colored. If I had ordered this myself, that would have p-ssed me off. Also, the rigidness of the removable / washable parts concerns me that they may crack as they age. I think a more rubbery (like Tuppereware) consistency would last longer. Another reviewer stated it only took them 30 seconds to clean their machine, but it takes me about 5 minutes to do it right. Although plastic, I do like the locking handle design- it feels safe to use.
