I ordered this juicer and impatiently waited for a week after reading so many good wrtie ups on this site. Much to my surprise, I was extremely disappointed. I tried it within hours of receiving it and got 8-OZ of fruit out of 6 apples and a pear. My cheap old black and decker ($30) does better than that! This thing shoots out big chuncks of fruit and very wet pulp into the pulp jar like you wouldn't believe. It goubles up fruits without jouicing them in less than 3 seconds. I would only recommend it to some one I don't like.
