Elite Gourmet ETS740 BPA-Free Electric Citrus Juicer with 2 Cones, Compact, Large Volume, Pulp Control, Oranges, Lemons, Limes, Grapefruits with Easy Pour Spout, 1.2L, Black/Stainless Steel

Woooooooooooooooooooh!I am just mesmerized!I love natural and healthy things and I could not find the ideal option out there so I stick to using glass manual hand squeezer one which is truly so much work to make one glass of juice that I often skipped the idea thinking of all the labor ahead.I was considering getting some manual/mechanical squeezer but the idea that the juice will have to travel through the metals of all sorts be it staginess or aluminum kind of puts me off and while plastic is not an ideal thing from health point perspective I somehow tend to think that very brief contact of the very acidic after all substance that orange juice is will have much less reactive power and chance to pick up stuff from this brief plastic situation then from alsorather reactive metals. Even most lovely of the stainless steel contain all kinds of necessary additives t hat makeit what it is, there is for sure chrome, nickel and some such additives that tend to be much quicker to react then the somewhat sleepy plastic.Anyway.. my first reaction is - this machine is absolutely amazing and I wish I got it earlier.Because.. I still can use my glass one when I feel more noble, but when I feel more lazy and need to get things done fast this will be the go to juicer.SPEED - it is fast, I mean I have ZERO experience with any other electric juicer out there but I find this speed manageable and fast enough to do job done without throwing anything at the walls.EFFECTIVNESS - TEN STARS ! - this thing get all the stuff from the inside of the half orange and leaves you with the bare pill inside, it just takes it all out.MANUAL FORCE - I was really afraid how it will work with nice soft ripen oranges that are easy to fall apart if you put force on it while squeezing but somehow it is super friendly in this area and the drilling force is gentle but consistent and very self assured and does what it supposed to be doing without transferring the force to the shell and breaking it.JUICE - I got so much more juice with this then with hand glass one and I don't know how it is even possible but it is really is super effective to get the EVERY last drop of juice from your orange.PULP- for some reason I don't see pulp so it must be pulverized in the process so it is there but I don't see it I love pulp either way as this is fiber and good one to that so ha! it is there for sure because it did not go anywhere else since it is not in the orange shell but again.. not visible in the juice per se.EASINESS - I think you can not possibly design easier machine, i was concerned at first when I saw it does not have any cover as you juice you use your hand and that is actually a plus, that way you can work on any size of fruit as I suppose a one size of plastic cover would limit the sizing and make smaller or bigger fruit with random amount of pulpishness and juice on the peel.You just wash it when it comes, plug it and you are good to go! truly no funny parts, the three elements there are you can see and they are the collecting jug, the strainer inside and the drilling part. nothing is screwed it is all put onso to take it apart you just lift t hose elements so a plus for time and efforts ..FUN FACTOR - huuuuuuuuuuuuuge! I got hooked after the first orange! the thing is that at this point in my life I can not for all reasons in the world find time to take pottery class but I love the work.. and this thing is just next best thing to the pottery wheel as you have the feel of this thing working and as you guide your FRUIT through the drill you feel a good relaxing energy coming out from the whole process so this became a juicing therapy if you need it when you need it.PRICE - love it, I truly appreciate low priced items that do their job. The Gourmet Elite has a tendency to make good items for reasonable price. I own their white kettle hot water pot that I am using for years and it is elegant and works great so that made me to look into this puppy. I am glad I did.It is very simple machine and frankly in the whole world of the orange or citruc juicing universe I think itis entirely enough. I know there are tons out there to pick from but I don't see any reason of spending big bucks on something that does exactly the same thing.I highly recommend you to get this one as a starting point and at least to see if you like the process and I am sure you will find it good enough. I did. If not you can always upgrade to the high end models that will do the same buttruly this is a great place to start.

Suprised to see so many low reviews, but I've only had this 2 months so will update if mine fares the same fate as those listed here that have crashed/burned.For now I absolutely love this little juicer. It's compact enough to not take up too much space, and it's convenient to use, and powerful enough to quickly juice things effectively.I frequently use fresh lemon juice in cooking (it's a tasty trick for cooking low-sodium) & often cook in batches, so juicing 5-6 lemons per dish was kind of getting exhausting. This little sucker speeds up my prep time by about 10-15 mins, & saves my hands from overexertion.Cleanup is a breeze, everything goes into top rack of the dishwasher (except the electric base, of course).Also LOVE the little lid it comes with for the pitcher; at 1st I assumed it'd be useless, but I've found it quite handy for times when I've made a bit too much juice, so I can simply pop the whole reservoir with lid into the fridge for easy keeping.NOTE: My chief complaint? The instructions didn't explain that the clear plastic reservoir where the juice strains into is TWIST OFF. I spent a frustrating 20 mins trying to figure out how to separate the electric base from the plastic pitcher. Now it's funny, but in the moment I was not happy. 😂Only other drawback I see is the potential for microplastics in your food, but I could be over-worrying. Would prefer if it was glass etc.Overall well worth how much it's saved my hands already.

This thing is so cool. It's all plastic parts that come apart/go together easily. And you just mush half of a fruit on the black pointy bit. It'll spin around and desiccate your fruit, with most of the pulp being caught, and the juice flowing through. It's quick, and safe (no blades or pinch points) and I even had some kids help me juice limes for cocktails and it was way more fun than juicing fruit has any right to be.Again, since it's all simple plastic pieces, a quick rinse is enough between uses, or easy enough to wash with sop and water.

I've owed this about 3 months and it works great. Easy to use, easy to clean and does what it should. My only complaint is that the seed holes let some of the smaller seeds through.

Having several citrus trees, I decide it’s going to be helpful just buying an electric juicer.I was right! This product is easy to use on my oranges, lemons and lime. It makes it easy getting my glass of natural OJ . Assembly is easy and use isn’t messy. I wash and store easily. It’s also lightweight and small enough not to crowd your kitchen counter.

I just changed this review to five stars. It was pilot error, I have a power outlet in my kitchen that was not working. (Previous review: It was useful while it lasted, about 5 months. Guess I could just buy another for the $13 that it cost me. Just stopped working one day, after juicing a lemon and a lime.)I actually LOVE having this. It lets me use lemons and limes in all my cooking very easily. It's easy to use, easy to clean. So glad that this was simply pilot error. I have arthritis in my wrists and it saves me from having to do this manually.

Great value for the price of this! We drink lemon water using fresh squeezed lemons. It is so easy to use. It really does get all the juice out of a lemon. in addition, it is very easy to clean. I love this purchase.
