I've been using this juicer, at least, every other day since I received it. My staple juices are oranges, carrots, celery, ginger root and mango. I've found it to be better than I expected. As an aside, the crunching sound with the the crunchier fruits and vegetables makes me laugh. I'm easily entertained. It was recommended to me by a friend and I would definitely recommend it to someone who is serious about juicing on a regular basis.
