I tried several different fruits and veggies to juice and was very pleased with the results.  It separated the rinds/skin from the juicy part of the fruit very well.  I would say that the smaller the fruit, the less effective it is.  For example, we tried juicing blueberries and noticed that there was quite a bit of the inner fruit left in the pulp container, but it's not a fruit I would juice on a regular basis.  It's very helpful that all the parts are dishwasher safe.  The one part that is hard to clean (which kept me from giving it 5 stars) is the grater.  You have to rinse it out immediately or it is very difficult to get the pulp out.  I put it in the dishwasher and there were still bits stuck in it.  Overall it is a great juicer for the value.
