Amazing juicer!
I have been using this machine every day for 1 month with no problems at all. Daily it grinds up spinach, apple, carrot, and ginger with ease. I have had none of the issues others mentioned. Here are my tips so you will have the same "luck" I have had with getting what you want out of this amazing juicer.
1. Do your prep work. You do have to chop your veggies and fruit into smaller chunks. You can't toss in a whole apple like you can in a centrifugal juicer. If you take the time to chop things up it works like a charm.
2. Follow drier items with wetter ones. After every batch of spinach, I throw in a piece of Apple. I do the same with carrot then apple. Let the juicer items help keep the auger lubricated and moving.
3. Clean the machine immediately. I always clean my machine as soon as I'm done and it's a breeze. Warm water works great with the little brush that is included. Fresh pulp is way easier to remove than dried sticky pulp.
4. Use the brush to scrub, scrub, and scrub the metal filter. That makes it sound harder than it is, it actually takes little time but I would imagine not properly cleaning this filter would cause the juicer to malfunction. Take a few minutes to ensure its properly cleaned.
I LOVE this juicer and highly recommend it. I am juicing daily since diagnosed with cancer. I truly believe this machine is a fundamental piece in my return to health and wellness.
