Powerful machine, as, I want it to last! So efficient, easy to clean, the juice drips right out of spout, quick, a great way for me to use those few grapes, apples, oranges left, but putting a little ginger, parsley, celery, and especially cukes with my juice. So healthy! You really can't imagine how yummy juicing extra salad vegitables are, especially putting a little fruit with it. You can add kiwi, strawberries and mint. Love this machine. BTW, if you want a quick clean, just place the washable grinding blade in a bowl of hot water while you do something for 15,20 min. Then, with my little black brush, that it comes with, you can clean ready it, in 2 min. I let this piece and a few others, rinsed in hot water just sit on counter by the machine on drain cloth to dry. Then, it is quick, and always ready to go.
