I received this a few days before New Year's. Used it to make juice for cocktails. It was amazing. Works very well. Also used it to juice lemons for shrimp scampi. It made lemon juice and kept the seeds out Wich is great for scampi. I also like the cord storage. So the extra cord isn't laying on the counter. I can keep the juicer close to the outlet. Love this juicer. Best I have ever used.
