This review is from: L\'Equip 215 XL Wide Mouth Juicer - BlackI have done a lot of juicing over the years, starting with a garden-variety model (Oster or something), then moving up to better models till I lost my good one (a L'Equip higher-end) during a move to another state. I decided to start up again after a few years off, and bought the Jack LaLanne base model (~$99). Big mistake - never buy a white juicer! It worked alright but made a mess, including spraying juice all over the place because the spout has no deflection tunnel. Had that one for about a month before I gave it away and looked for my trusty L'Equip, but they don't make that model anymore. I bought the 215 XL hoping it would have the better quality without having to pay 200-300 bucks. This model has a bigger chute than cheap juicers, is not overly noisy, and extracts carrot juice just fine. The problem is that it also sprays juice out of the funnel; you either have to stand to the side or wear a shirt you don't care about. I think the high RPMs of the basket create too much air flow. This problem aside, you also need a bungie cord or something to hold the pulp basket up to the juicer body for the same reason; the high air flow actually pushes this basket away and if you don't watch it carefully there is an inch gap between the two and you have carrot pulp all over the place. Any other problem with this juicer is common to all centrifugal style juicers: they spin too fast and create too much froth. Another problem with this one is juicing pulpy fruit - tried pineapple and mango one time and never again - what a mess! Because I love juicing, I now bit the bullet bought a Breville BJE510XL for about $200, hoping that a move to higher-priced juicers will give me one that does not make such a mess. My advice: stay away from this and all low-end juicers and go for the higher-end models; if you do this from the start you wont't waste hundreds of bucks like I did on juicers that spray paint the kitchen walls. I'll be reviewing the Breville in the next few weeks......This review is from: L\'Equip 215 XL Wide Mouth Juicer - BlackI just started juicing for my diabetes and this machine is not only lovely on the counter but works great as well. I was a little skeptical from reading all the different juicer reviews but I thought I would give this one a chance plus it has a 10 year warranty so all the better....This review is from: L\'Equip 215 XL Wide Mouth Juicer - BlackI got this as a gift from my brother and I love it! I've tried others but this one not only fill about 3 mugs of juice, it cleans like a charm. In 5 minutes, everything is washed and done. The juicer is very powerful and I'm totally thrilled with it. When it arrived it only worked 3 times. Send it to the mfg and got it back working perfect. Excellent service and customer repair....
