slightly disappointed
By Irena Geshuri
This juicer extracts the juice so efficiently that I have to use one orange less every day to get the same amount of juice that I got with my old juicer. However, the Krups has difficulties handling a grapefruit at the automatic setting and I need to switch to the manual. Also, I was very disappointed to find out that this model does not come with a drip stopper which necessitates the placement of an extra glass under the spout to catch the dripps, or it must be disassembled immediately after use so that is does not drip. I have also inserted a paper towel into the spout to regulate the drips. For this price, Krups should include a drip stopper.

An excellent choice for a citrus juicer
By Jane Scott
After reading reviews about all the heavy-duty/commercial juicers available on Amazon, I bought this for my husband for Christmas. With lots of family in town and a trailer-full of oranges, tangerines, and lemons from a local grove, he opened it a few days early. It juiced SEVERAL HUNDRED pounds of citrus over the next couple weeks without a single glitch. The design is simple- easy to use and clean. Our 5-year-old juiced tangerine juice for about 20 people all by himself. Our guests helped themselves to fresh juice throughout the day because it was so easy to use. No time to give it a good washing in the dishwasher, but it was easy to rinse out in the sink. Even our 3-year-old can juice for himself with this machine. Super impressed with how well it gets 95-100% of the juice out, also. With all that continuous juicing, the motor never sounded like it was straining. Looks sleek, too. As I type I hear it humming in the background- staving off the scurvy! Super happy with this purchase!

Solid construction
By Technology Mad 32
When our $15 juicer went after one year,we went shopping for a replacement. But all the reviews of the juicers that were in the same or even slightly higher price range were mainly disappointing. It appears that a common theme of those reviews was that the juicer just did not last. We use our juicer about once every two weeks and only during the winter months when we wanted to make fresh lemonade from the lemons we grew in our garden. So, it wasn't as if we stressed it beyond reasonable use. We searched for something which would last instead of having to replace it every year.

In fact, buying a new $15 juicer each year for 6 or 7 years would still be cheaper than buying the Krups and we did consider that alternative. But we decided spend a bit more on something that would last a long time instead of having to deal with this each year. We searched for something with a much more powerful motor since the more powerful the motor, the less likely it will burn out if you use it for a long time each time you juice.

Apart from ease of use, the two main things to consider in purchasing a juicer is the power of the motor and the build quality - something that won't rock/wobble so that you have to keep holding as you are juicing. A third criteria is the noise.

This Krups is solidly built. It is heavy and will not move during juicing. It makes light work since it takes only a couple of presses of the lever to take the juice out each halve of the fruit so it a lot quicker to get the job done. It also makes a lot less noise because the motor is more powerful and therefore is not "straining" as you are using it.

So far, we are very happy with our decision. The unit also looks good. The only complaint is that they could have included a jug to collect the juice.
