I labored to get as many reviews read as possible when I decided to get a juicer. I knew that I did not want to go high end for my first juicer, because I did not know if I would get into the 'Juicing Lifestyle'. Therefore the the really expensive ones were out of the question. When it came to the lower end models, this one caught my eye due to it's high ratings, and it has definitely delivered. What someone purchasing one of these models HAS to remember is that it is a lower end juicer, and although it does an excellent job, it is what it is. No, it will not give you perfectly dry pulp, and yes, you do have to cut your larger fruit up to get it down the tube, no, it doesn't have silent operation, but if someone was spinning me at that RPM, I don't think that I'd be quiet either! Sometimes the seal at the bottom of the juice catcher leaks a few drops. If you are so hard up for money that 3 extra apples is going to upset you, then you need to wait until your situation changes to get into this.
All that being said, for the money, it's excellent, and it's a great starter juicer. I would definitely recommend this juicer to any of my friends that are looking to start juicing but haven't made a decision about it yet.
