I’ve tried other juicers in the past and was disappointed at the amount of ingredients that were left behind. The first juice I tried consisted of oranges, therefore of course a lot of pulp would be left behind but still a lot of juice was produced! The overall device is like any other juicer intricate and time consuming to clean, but that doesn’t take way from the effectiveness of the product itself! Overall the work to clean this juicer is worth it for the fresh, tasty juice that’s produced!
