This is a nice product - it's heavier & larger than I would have expected, but it is simple to use.

It juices pretty much everything, and the pulp that is left over is really quite dry - more so than a lot of the centrifugal juicers I have used.

I went for this model over some of the others because I wanted something that was a little more multipurpose. So far I have made several batches of pasta with it - really rather good too!

Cleaning is straightforward, there's not that many nooks & crannies to get worked up about, the screen cleans easily with any soft brush, the toothbrush supplied is good enough.

In all there's the outer housing for the auger, the auger itself, the screen and the end cap & nozzle. These parts have all made it through the dishwasher - the screen is the only piece you really need to do by hand... the other bits all seem to come perfectly clean with a good rinse in hot water (after juicing, anyway).

The auger does it's job nicely, the motor seems to be suitably powerful.

About as loud as a regular food processor.

The only thing I would say is that perhaps the buttons should be sealed.

The instruction manual is simplistic, but there are a wealth of recipes available elsewhere.

I did some research on net before deciding on the samson. PRIMARILY LOOKING FOR HIGH YIELD AND EASY CLEANING - great on both counts - Juices wheatgrass great. Juices greens like kale, collard greens, cabbage with ease, Mix an apple with the greens - goes down easier. Juice from veggies and fruits taste so pure in your mouth - feels like life is being pumped into my system. of course for me it's all organic - otherwise, I get the pesticides - concentrated. Customer service from Kitchen's Best Manufacturing (Holly and Ashley ) was supberb. They offer a 90 day money back guarantee. They listened and answered all my questions with enthusiasum. They gave me tips on how to better juice and achieve a higher yield. You just don't get that kind of service anymore. Paid 229.00 including shipping and no tax. Yes I recommend juicer highly and KITCHEN'S BEST - Amazon - I buy many things from you and you are great - but customer service and 90-day moneyback sold me.

Our Samson Single Gear Juicer - GB-9001 arrived yesterday. I bought it to juice wheatgrass but since our sprouts haven't grown up enough to juice, I went through the refrigerator looking for things to juice. I combined several fruits and veggies and was amazed at how quickly and clean the whole operation went. The apple-ginger-lemon-celery combo was tasty indeed.

The juicer looks industrial strength, but could also win awards for a beautiful design. It's solidly built and works quietly. The cellulose discharge that comes out of the end looks like it's been wrung of every ounce of life, and the juice looks filled with life. Nice exchange. I can't wait to try the other 5 uses, including making soy milk and pasta!

I fully expect that this machine will be in our family for many years of useful service. It's one great machine.

I went into major "resarch mode" when looking for a wheat grass juicer. I discovered that other juicers shouldn't be used for wheat grass because their fast speed made for doing other juices means that oxygen enters the wheat grass which breaks down the very properties you drink wheat grass for.

but other wheat grass juicers that were the right speed could not do other thigns or other juicers, or cost an arm and a leg as a professional juicer.

This was suggested to me by a restaurant that does wheatgrass and, I concur, it's a real winner. I have made pasta with it and fruit juice too and it's a fun machine...but whereas other juicers broke down the wheatgrass so it lost its potency, this gives me the same quality of that I used to purchase at a juicer place, for way less in the long run.

We grow wheat grass in a long canister that's gorgeous on the center of our table and just clip it as needed.

better than any energy drink on the planet and no additives or preservaties and this one does it so it works!

I have owned a very nice and simple expresso machine that I have used every day since I bought it (through Amazon) almost ten years ago. I estimate, very conservatively, that in this time I have saved over $10,000 with this high quality machine and it is still going strong. Recently I bought this juice making machine and I have a feeling after a little less than one month of daily use that I will probably save more than twice as much with this machine than I have with the espresso machine in the same period of time.

Based on the quality of the parts and the pure simplicity of the machine I can now make juice for my wife and myself every morning in five to ten minutes time including setting up, taking apart, and cleaning all five of the moving parts. The juice that comes out of the juicer is like ambrosia. My first juice was a combination of apple and carrot as that was sum total of my raw materials when the machine arrived. I had never tasted anything like it and my wife and I were blown away. Since then we have made fruit juices, vegetable juice, soups, and broths with the machine and have barely scratched the surface of what this device is capable of.

I hope they keep selling this machine for a while as all my friends and family are going to want one of these for themselves as soon as they see and try mine.

I just bought this juicer and have only been using it for a few weeks. I spent well over six months reviewing different juicers before finally settling on this one. It was affordable and I liked the multi-purpose aspect of it. I was blown away the first time I made juice. I couldn't believe how easy it was. I was also expecting a machine that was noisy. I was pleasantly surprised at how quite this baby is. It is considerably quieter than my Blendtec.

I have not used it for anything other than making juice so I can't speak for it's other features. Once I learn more about how to use it's other features, I will give them a try though.

I'm not sure why the one reviewer wrote that it was too slow for carrots and the carrots had to be cut up into small pieces. I just feed the whole carrot and had no problems. I did not notice it slowing down for the carrots either. Grabbed them and pulled them right through. I did have to use the pusher once the carrot was inside the feed shoot but that is no different than the rest of the things I've juiced. I prep my food ahead of time so from start to finish, it took me less than 10 minutes to have a huge glass of juice (24 ounces). My favorite so far is what I call my liquid salad: spinach, celery, cilantro, tomatoes, lemon, wheatgrass, barley, sunflower sprouts, carrots. MMMMMMM!!!

Clean-up is a breeze. A quick rinse to get rid of particles and then a once over in hot soapy water and you are done. I would highly recommend this juicer to anyone that is looking for something easy and versatile. I love it!

It took me a while to figure out what I wanted in a juicer. This juicer is what I decided would suit my needs best. My research showed that it would do a more complete volume of juice for my produce. Plus it handles the leafy greens and wheatgrass and that is really important to me.

I have now had my juicer for a month and absolutely love it! I use it once or twice a day for myself and often for others in my home as well. It does indeed generate a large volume of juice. Plus it is so nice that the motor is not loud. I can talk with my family in the kitchen and even our toddler. The noise it does make doesn't even scare my toddler, or my dogs for that matter....and they all startle easily.

According to the manual, it does tons of other stuff besides making juice but I haven't even ventured in that direction since I am having fun making juice every day.
And cleaning up is a breeze.

I am so grateful and thrilled to have this juicer.
My model was a lesser priced factory model since it had been opened and returned. Somehow or another when the box was re-packed the owners manual wasn't included. However Samson was great to send me one promptly in the mail. I bring all of this up only to make mention of what I learned while figuring out my juicer on my own...
In the beginning I cut my produce into long sizes that would fit into the feeding hole. It worked fine that way. But after following the advice of my new owners manual I have learned that cutting the produce into inch sized pieces creates an even larger volume of complete juice. So after playing around with it for a month, that would be my advice for someone just getting started.

And just for fun....my favorite breakfast/lunch combination I recommend is: 2 celery sticks, 4 carrots, a big handful of spinach, 1/2 a lemon, 1 granny smith apple and 1 orange.

I've only just recently received this juicer but I was previously using a manual juicer to juice wheatgrass and this juicer has made a HUGE difference in time and effort. It does a wonderful job of juicing wheatgrass. I absolutely love it. It is VERY easy to clean up. I haven't used this juicer for anything other than juicing wheatgrass and greens. It does say it can be used to juice other fruits and vegetables. However, it requires you to cut up hard vegetables and fruits into little pieces. I have another juicer that easily juices fruits and vegetables so I'm happy to use that for that purpose. It also can be used for a variety of things such as making pasta, ice cream, etc. I may in the future attempt to use it for that but for now I am very pleased just to have it for the greens and wheatgrass. Even if I never use it for anything else it will be worth the money just for greens and wheatgrass!!

I could write a long review but everyone else has seem to sum up how wonderful the "Samson 9001" Single-Gear Juicer is! I originally purchased the "Omega J8003" but it was defective, it would not power-up, it was completely dead. I can't say that I would not have loved it also, and I'll never know, but, I am 100% satisfied and happy with the Samson and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality and well constructed juicer.

Great juicer. Powerful. Only problem is spinich and some items clog the screen, but that's to be expected. Breaks down easily for cleaning.
For a new item, this thing is built tough like the old American made products used to be. Time will only tell how long the removable parts on front last. But the main body/motor housing has a thick steel drive shaft and looks/feels like something that will be around and working for decades.
