This is our second juicer and has by far impressed us over the Omega VRT350. (Still a good juicer just a level below this one)Some great features are:The "smokey" feed chute shows you the produce getting crushed! (cool to watch)The smart cap allows you to mix and see the yield of juice you get from each item put inThe large feed chute reduces the amount of prep time by halfLeafy and more fibrous produce are easily juiced without blocking the exit chute (HUGE IMPROVEMENT over the Omega)Way less pulp compared to the Omega (Perfect amount, you're not eating your juice but its not pure liquid)You don't have to cut your produce into tiny pieces prior to juicing and you roll the leafy greens (way better!)Clean up is easy with the brushes provided and smart cap.The minute we turned on this juicer we knew it was going to be a good one.We Love it :)See John from Discount Juicers for all the reviews and comparisons of juicers available. Very helpful in deciding which is right for you! (Thanks John)***Update***We are still loving this machine. We did notice a manufacturing defect with our juicing screen so we contacted Kuvings Support and they sent us a new one free of charge. Someone mentioned in another review that when you buy on Amazon you may not have the warranty coverage. We had to send Kuvings a copy of our invoice and they had no issues with it.***Update Aug 2015***Juicer still working great, I make green juice regularly and thought I would share a tip on how to get it moving nicely through the juicer.. alternate what you put in for example:KaleCucumberCeleryCabbageAnd repeatAnother tip I've recently discovered is using cabbage. It pushes everything through (even fussy kale and celery) and cleans out the strainer very well which makes cleaning easy. The cabbage also gives the juice a much more balanced/mild taste.***Update March 2016***So Juicer is still working great, today the silicon plug just tore (I use it at least twice a week still), emailed Kuvings (this morning) since they do not offer that piece for sale on their site and they are sending us a whole new bowl under warranty(responded within two hours)! This company is absolutely amazing with their customer service, I don't think I could be more impressed! 100% worth the money not only for a great product but the service as well! Such a rare thing these days.

The showing of an entire apple going through in the picture is a little deceiving since only small apples can fit through the 3" wide diameter shoot. I find it difficult to find apples this size so usually they need to be cut into fourths. Not so bad when compared to my last juicer with which I had to cut them into sixths. However whole cucumbers (even thick ones), lemons, carrots... all these slide right through whole! This thing is also really quiet! My last juicer was also a "silent" juicer but even though it was less loud than most it still sounded like cats screeching. Neighbors in my building get disturbed easily so I couldn't use it during certain times, but this juicer is quiet enough that I've had no problems using it in the middle of the night without disturbing them.The smart cap is genius. Sometimes I end up making a little too much juice for the glass I'm using and just when the glass is about to overflow I can close the cap to leave the rest in the juicer for a couple of minutes until I get another glass. It also prevents dripping on the counter.Clean-up is a breeze. So much so that I find it almost fun to clean. I used to have an older Kuvings model and I didn't stay with it long because of certain things I didn't like. One of those things being the auger which was a pain to dismount and mount because it was short and almost the same height/width as the surrounding filter- which meant and I couldn't get my fingers down on the auger enough to pull it out easily. This auger is much taller and juts out of the filter by a good few inches so all you have to do is wrap your fingers around that and it comes right out. A quick rinse of the parts is all it takes. The filter takes me about 2 minutes to clean with the brush and the end of the brush is great for getting any debris out of the pulp shoot in the housing. All together it takes me about 4-5 minutes to clean; no exaggeration. Though it may take less or more time depending on what it is you juice. I usually do cucumbers,apples,turnips and turnip greens, Kale, garlic, ginger, parsley and lemon. Crushes it all like a dream. The manual says it can do wheatgrass and Almonds as well, but I haven't tried those things. There is very little foam in the juice and the pulp is nice and dry.This juicer also comes with an extra attachment for making deserts like frozen fruit treats and crushing ice.Really there is just nothing bad I can say about this juicer. It's perfect. The only thing missing is that it doesn't chill the juice for you! As no juicer has yet been invented that can do that, I just place the juice in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to get it nice and chilled before drinking.Update: Sept/20/2014 I recently started using the blank strainer to make sorbet deserts. OMG- Delicious! It doesn't seem to matter what kind of froze fruits you put in - banana, strawberry, mango, cherries, etc.... It all comes out tasting like the best sorbet icecream you've ever had! The juicer continues to work great. The only issue I've had is with the pusher. I washed it in the dishwasher (as I often do with all the parts), but for some reason the pusher expanded permanently while in the dishwasher and it warped in such a way that it no longer fits in the shoot. I contacted Kuvings about a replacement and am still waiting to hear back from them. I guess the lesson here is- don't put the pusher in the dishwasher.
