Hate to admit,  but we haven't drank juice in years - difficult to watch the high sugars put into commercial juices, so preferred to just give it up.  When we received this juicer, I did a mental eye roll at hubby's excitement,  but boy was he right!!!  Easy, easy, easy to use... directions are easy to follow,  clean up is easy.  We're going to celebrate this weekend by making homemade Bloody Mary's!!
