Product Description

From the Manufacturer

You’ll love your new Visor Natural Processor 509 by L'equip because...
  • Nutrition. The Visor grinds your vegetables at a gentle 100 revolutions per minute (RPM). Nutrients deep inside the vegetable fibers are released by the Visor’s masticating action. Unlike other machines, the Visor does not destroy nutrients by friction, heat, or oxidation. In some juicers, these three forces destroy fragile vitamins and enzymes before they get to your glass. But not in the Visor!
  • Quiet. Some juicers make your kitchen sound like the inside of a machine shop! You’re forced to shout just to carry on a conversation. But not with the Visor by L'equip. The Visor’s slow turning gear and motor make juicing a pleasurable and peaceful experience.
  • Quick Clean Up. Studies have shown that even some of the finest juicers stay in the cupboard most of the year. Why? Because clean-up is such a forbidding chore that users are loathe to start up their juicers. Not so with the Visor. We at L'equip have revolutionized the clean-up process making the Visor the easiest and fastest clean-up of any juicer you can buy (and it’s quick to assemble, too).
  • More Than Juice. L'equip wants you to keep your juicer on the counter and keep using it. So, in between juicing, you can use your Visor to make ice-cream or sorbet from frozen fruits, nut butters from your favorite nuts, sprouted bread from grinding sprouted grains, and different pastas or noodles from your own dough.
  • Quality Manufactured. Every L'equip Visor is made with FDA-approved, food grade, inert materials such as polycarbonate and melamine, including our world-patented "stone mill" type juicing gear (screw).

Features:

  • Six-year guarantee
  • UL/CUL listed
  • Multi-purpose wheatgrass, fruit, and vegetable juicer
  • Use also as food processor and pasta maker
  • Easy to assemble, use, and clean
  • High juice yield
  • Quiet operation
  • Unique design with stealth visor
  • Automatic pulp ejection for continuous juicing
  • Built-in reverse prevents clogging
  • Stainless steel "single gear" masticating extraction
  • Slow rotation and powerful motor chews fibers for full release of enzymes, vitamins, and minerals

Product Description

Reap all the health benefits of juicing and making homemade, fresh pastas with this ingenious, all-in-one gadget. Fresh, natural juice is not only packed with vitamins and minerals, but can be part of a healthy diet and weight-loss plan. Protein-rich foods and juices curb appetite, and deep colored fruits and vegetables are full of antioxidants. The Visor grinds your fruits and vegetables at a gentle 100 revolutions per minute (RPM). Expertly designed with all the features you would expect from L'Equip, the gentle masticating juice extraction not only releases nutrients from deep in the food fibers, but the gentle, slow motion eliminates the high-heat factor generated by most juicers/processors, which kill valuable nutrients and beneficial vitamins. With most juicers, wheatgrass is virtually impossible to process, but not with the Visor. Drinking healthy never tasted so good. Creating your own pasta assures you are eating the freshest ingredients, and creating fiber-rich pastas can be a heart-healthy alternative to the bleached flour pastas available at the grocer. The Visor comes with 5 pasta nozzles. Make your own nut butter and custard too-specialty nozzles for these features included. It features a unique design with a built-in visor for storage when not in use, easy assembly, a reverse feature to prevent clogging, automatic pulp ejection for continuous juicing, high yield output and quiet operation, the Visor Natural Processor/Juicer is sure to become the run-to appliance in your kitchen.

1.0 out of 5 stars Serious design fault - otherwise great juicer, May 22, 2004
By 
Mr Adam J Tricker (East Anglia, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: L'Equip 306400 Visor Natural Processor/Juicer (Kitchen)
Unfortunately the L'Equip Visor has a serious design fault

The juicer comes with an array of attachments, and it can use carrots, greens even apples and pineapples fine (despite some reviews stating otherwise - the reviewer obviously hadnt used the correct attachment!).

However, I feel I must add that I HAVE had some significant problems with the juicer. And this results in much more than not juicing properly.

There is a serious design fault of the plastic feeding chamber, that results in it cracking (at the point where the fruit feeds into the auger screw and along) if too much pressure is put on it. This pressure need not be more than a slice of carrot or two, or one or two nuts. I have had one replacement already, with only using the juicer for 2 months (the supplier admitted there is a design fault, as many others have also had this problem, and promtply sent out a replacement part).

Is a great shame for an otherwise fantastic juicer with so much potential; however, for this reason alone, I recommend anyone who is considering a juicer, to look at alternative models.

2.0 out of 5 stars Pros and cons, July 2, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: L'Equip 306400 Visor Natural Processor/Juicer (Kitchen)
My experience with the L'Equip Visor 509 which I have been using for approximately 6 months is mixed. It has an attractive appearance, with an attached cover, a compact footprint, and a 6 year guarantee. I have not used any other juicing processors so I can not compare quality of product however there are some design issues that need to be addressed. The unit comes with two catch bowls that mate nicely together underneath the juicer body, but the pulp frequently falls in the juice catch bowl, especially if it is soft. This could have been easily avoided if the juice nozzle had been slightly longer.

I tried making the banana ice cream and it was quite good, however I found the noodle attachments useless. It is impossibly slow with only three openings, and the "noodles" entwine and stick together as they come out. I used flour, perhaps semolina would work better if you want those kinds of noodles, but don't buy this unit for the noodle or spaghetti nozzles or the nut butter nozzle which produces a rough, granular material, is very slow and the ground nuts do not get smoother when mixed with oil.

The removable parts of the unit are easy to clean, however I've had a big problem with back leakage where the juicer body fits into the motor body. The juice dribbles onto and into the unit, gets behind the clamping ring attachment and associated parts and screws and is virtually impossible to clean, creating a very unhygienic situation with the residue drying inside and behind motor body parts. When I mentioned this to someone at the company they told me it could be dismantled and be cleaned. Gathering tools, fiddling with tiny Philips screws, pulling apart the mechanism, cleaning each piece and the unit case and then figuring the right way to put it all back together again, is just not practical each time you use the unit.

2.0 out of 5 stars great at first..., August 8, 2005
By 
This review is from: L'Equip 306400 Visor Natural Processor/Juicer (Kitchen)
Have had the unit for 2 years.. things keep cracking.. had the screw cap crack and it took over 3 months to get L'Equip to rectify.. first they sent out another piece that didn't work and proceeded to argue with me and tell me that it was my fault the piece wasn't screwing in.. I spent over $20.00 shipping screw caps back and forth and had to deal with attitude from them as well. Finally got the screw cap that works with my juicer with no admittance of a mistake on their part... I JUST started juicing again and now the blank strainer cracked. I am NOT looking forward to dealing with customer service once again. Try another brand with a more reliable customer service.
