This review is from: NativeJuicer PRCJ500 Professional Variable Speed JuicerWhat sold me was the Consumer Digest review which rated the Native Juicer higher than the Breville but for less money--seemed like an easy decision. Perhaps my experience was a fluke and I just got a bad one. But I had a bad feeling from the minute I got the box...it seemed really cheap. The packaging was cheap, the plastic parts seemed on the thin fragile side, and the instructions were a one-pager folded, which read "2-year warranty" not the 7-year I'd seen online. That being said, I never got a chance to find out which it was, 2 or 7 years, as my Native Juicer made this nasty metal on metal sound when trying to juice a soft tomato. This was my 8th glass on this machine and after carefully washing everything, I gave it one last shot. I gave it another tomato and it started smoking, so I just returned it for a refund. I'm not totally sure about this variable speed motor concept. It seems like a lot of problems waiting to happen. Also the thin plastic lid made me nervous with the blade spinning thousands of RPMs. It's probably comparable to a lot of models of similar design, but I don't care, it still seems dangerous. The blue display is nice, but I don't like how the speed knob is just a pot and doesn't have fixed values. On the one hand, what do you expect for under $200, but I'd rather spend more $ and get something that I can enjoy for a while. The pulse button was shallow and felt cheap. Although it didn't work out, for 7 glasses, the juice was pretty awesome and tasty. I got my refund quickly, Michele was very nice and apologetic and the return was painless, so I gave it 2 stars instead of 1....This review is from: NativeJuicer PRCJ500 Professional Variable Speed JuicerI'm new to juicing and wanted a machine that could juice basic fruits and vegetables. With nothing to compare this to I'm quite impressed by the power and ability to quickly chomp through whatever I put in it. I like to mix apples with carrots and they both do really well but I've found that the juice comes out better if the carrots are not really dry. It still juices them but if the carrots are dry I soak them in water for a minute and then they seem to be as good as new. This juicer is kind of loud but not as bad as a blender. I only use it for a couple minutes a day so I don't mind it. The cleaning isn't too bad but I clean the filter part right away. I couldn't imagine trying to clean it if the food was dried onto it....This review is from: NativeJuicer PRCJ500 Professional Variable Speed JuicerI was taken in by the claims that this juicer was a top consumer product. After buying it i did a little research and could not find the "consumer report" that was stated. With trepidation, I waited for my juicer, thinking that this may be a scam. Well, it arrived. And like the other reviewer stated, it does come in "economical packaging", you might say. Well, I took it out, rinsed it off and put it to work. And it does work.I was very surprised and delighted. The dial allows for limiting the speed, which is good, cuz I put watermelon in it and "whoosh!!"--gone in an instant. Cucumbers, tomatos, carrots, etc. nicely done. I am very happy with this, just make sure you rinse/clean everything soon after using it....
