Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Carrots, celery, beets, cucumbers, apples--all vegetables and fruits, with the exception of citrus, go into this powerful, compact juicer's feed chute and come out the spout as clean, fresh juice. (Citrus fruits require an attachment that is not included with this juicer.) A stainless-steel blade chops the vegetables and fruits, and centrifugal force--just as your high school physics teacher promised--spins the juice from the pulp and through a strainer before it pours from the spout. Disposable paper filters (included), useful for soft fruits, can be placed inside the strainer to further filter juice. Pulp can be employed to flavor soups, casseroles, breads, cakes, and sauces. Or it can go into the compost pile. Twisting off the cover opens the juicer for simple disassembly and cleaning. The cover and bowl can go in the dishwasher; other parts must be hand washed. --Fred Brack

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, September 22, 2000

This review is from: Waring PJE401 Juice Extractor, Quite White and Stainless Steel (Kitchen)

I bought this machine for its power and brand-name quality. It is powerfull indeed and is sturdy in construction. With its centrifugal approach to extracting juices, the machine really gets the juice out until the last drop. I really liked it until I tried putting watermelon in it: the machine grinded the juice shreder plate inside. No more quality and effortless juicing after that. Had the machine replaced thinking it was just the particular unit I had purchased, but it happened again. So, I was left with having to purchase a replacement plate from the manufacturer. This third time I tried grapes, and whamo!...for the third time the machine ruined its plate. At $40.00 a piece it is no joke having to replace the plate a couple of times, plus it is not a good feeling when you don't know how the machine will react when certain fruits are juiced. After these three incidents, I only use it to extract juices from carrots, apples, and celery...no more grapes or watermelon...in all the machine will do a good job so long it does not encounter a seed in the fruit, else say bye-bye to the plate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent commercial quality juicer !, May 18, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Waring PJE401 Juice Extractor, Quite White and Stainless Steel (Kitchen)

I have used many juicers in the past, and this one is by far the highest of quality. First of all, since this juicer does not have a pulp ejection system, the pulp actually spins in the juicer yielding about 30% more juice for your drinking pleasure. The filters make cleanup really simple. My favorite point about the juicer is the quality construction. They use stainless steel for most of the upper housing. Filters are available locally. It's a great way to start your day, and hopefully for years to come. Happy juicing!

I have used this product for about 2 years now. In terms of quality you are getting your money's worth. It is a solid industrial device that is not likely to have mechanical or structural problems during an owner's lifetime.

In terms of use, it is pretty good. Because of the straining action it uses you get significantly more juice per vegetable than any other machine. The only issue I have is with cleanup. It's not bad per se but you do need the filters to save you 80% of the cleanup without them. Even with the filters though it is damn tricky to get all the fibrous leftovers out of the metal spinner. There is just no simple physical way to get pulp out given the design of the spinner. Having said that we're talking a minute or two of running this thing under a faucet tilting it back and forth. If they can solve this I'll give them 5 stars.

Finally it looks good. I just wish they would bring back the blue model that my ex took!
