I recently had bariatric surgery and I am still in the liquid phase. I was so excited to purchase this juicer because i love all things ninja. However, when I opened the juicer, I noticed that my juice pitcher was broken. Honestly I wasn't bothered. Living off of protein shakes and water was getting old. I set up the juicer and prepped my veggies. I followed the instructions to chop certain things and blend on high or low settings. After all was done I opened the chute to empty the peels and noticed their was still quite a bit of juice left in mixed in with what is suppose to be thrown out. I ended up having to run the peels and pulp through the juicer two more time until I was satisfied with the amount of juice. Ninja really slipped with this one. Super disappointed and hungry......lol
