Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Capable of continuous operation, this appliance extracts juice from fruits and vegetables and then ejects pulp either into its pulp basket, or, for juice-bar quantities, into a garbage bag that can be secured to the extractor with a special holder. The extractor's 480-watt motor is computer controlled for precise operation, and the appliance stands on big rubber feet to reduce vibration and protect the counter's surface. Easy to assemble and disassemble for cleaning, the extractor comes with a bowl, basket, and blade that are made of stainless steel and are dishwasher-safe. Its plastic exterior, pulp basket, plunger, and cover wipe clean with a soapy cloth. The extractor measurers 12-1/2 inches high, 9 inches wide, and 13 inches deep, including spout and cover. It carries a 12-warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

2.0 out of 5 stars
Soooo disappointed!!!!!,
By Carli's mom "poohmee777" (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: L'Equip 221 Juice/Pulp Extractor (Kitchen)
I wish I had listened to E.Buhkman of Ohio's review, instead I went with the others. I have owned at least four other brands of juicers, for the money this is probably the worst. It produces very little juice and it stopped the second time I used it, while only juicing carrots and cabbage. I was really looking forward to the extra large chute(BAA HUM BUG!!!) it is only slightly larger than the Juiceman juicer. I had to clean it after two carrots to get it to start again. When I pushed the on button it hummed and gradually started again, only to give little juice,I found the rest of the juice when I squeezed the pulp. It was medium as far as sound. The basket takes a little extra to remove. I gave it two stars because it looks cute. If you still want to purchase one of these, I'll gladly sell mine.

This Is One Terrific Juicer!!,
By
This review is from: L'Equip 221 Juice/Pulp Extractor (Kitchen)
Update: August 23, 2004
More than two years after my initial review (see below from June, 2002), this juicer is still going strong and I still love it. I'm at a loss to explain the problems that other people have had with theirs because they just haven't happened with mine. A few times the blades made some louder than normal sounds but I just pressed down on the dome a bit and that took care of that. No one has mentioned any other brand that they like better so for my money I'm sticking with my L'Equip! ---------------------------------------------------------------- I've been using the L'Equip 221 for several months now, and I just love it. While doing research on juicers I heard rumors that it tended to break more often than it's chief rival, the Omega 4000, but it has worked perfectly right out of the box without any problems at all. It has the most powerful motor of any home juicer on the market, and with its extra-wide feeder slot I can juice two or even three carrots at the same time without even slowing it down. The twelve year warranty is only a bit less than the Omega, and far more than that offered by the Juiceman line at one year or the Jack Lalanne Power Juicer which doesn't mention any warranty at all that I can find. The juice it produces is fantastic, left over pulp goes right out the back into the disposal basket. You can use the pulp for cooking other things so nothing goes to waste. And it is so easy to clean I can't believe it. Two minutes and it's done. Hear me now and believe me later, it's that easy, folks. There are only two reasons I might not have given it the five stars of total perfection: 1) It is not totally silent, although the muscular sound of the motor comes across as merely a pleasant hum to me and would not be considered a drawback to most people, and 2) when I first started using it, it tended to move around the counter a little but that has since settled down and with a piece of non-skid material underneath it's been rock-steady ever since. Otherwise it is about as good a piece of kitchen engineering as I've ever seen. And as they say, "The bottom line is the juice!" By the way, for very large quantities of really tasty juice, try a nice fresh cantalope. The juice is as good as a milk shake and with hardly any pulp left over at all. Happy juicing!! :)

Professional Endurance Juicer and Pulp Extractor,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: L'Equip 221 Juice/Pulp Extractor (Kitchen)
The main selling point of this juicer was the pulp extractor and the option to attach a catch bag for the pulp. This made for extended use without having to stop and change a filter or empty the main compartment. The very first day I had this I juiced 25 lbs of beets, 25 lbs of golden beets, 8 lbs of parsley, 6 lbs of cilantro and 11 lbs of red peppers. I did not have one problem and the whole list only took about an hour from start to finish. That is professional endurance that I am looking for. This efficient machine is now a permanent fixture in my kitchen. As the Chef des Cuisine for The Dining Room at the Inn on Biltmore Estate, I would highly recommend this brand and model to other professional chefs and serious home juicers.With a hand-shake in mind,
