This is our first juicer and what a revelation this Nutribullet is. This juicer is super efficient and powerful. Even the densist vegetables process quickly and painlessly. Since we hadn't juiced before, we've relied on the recipes in the manual and they are spot-on delicious. After you've completed juicing, the Nutribullet cleans in a heartbeat. I was concerned it was going to be messy and time consuming, but it is the exact opposite. The provided brush for the sieve is brilliant and ejects all particles in seconds of use. The locking bar is a great feature while in use since this is so powerful. Overall, the machine is a triumph. Efficient, effective, and powerful. Cleaning is a breeze. A truly wonderful product, and a great addition to the nutribullet lineup.
