This review is from: Champion Household Juicer 2000 PLUS G5-NG-853S - SILVER MODELA really heavy duty lifetime machine. Juices vegetables unbelievably well and fruit less effectively. Only problem--extremely difficult to put together and take apart for cleaning--so I end up not using it much unfortunately....This review is from: Champion Household Juicer 2000 PLUS G5-NG-853S - SILVER MODELI have had this juicer for the past 8 years, and I do not find it difficult at all to put it together. Actually, it takes me less than 30 seconds. Once you figure out how to squeeze the screen before you slide on the the bit that holds it in place, everything else is super easy. My 67 year old mom can do it, and she has arthritis in her fingers.For cleaning I take it appart and just rinse out the pulp. Because the pulp is already shredded, there is no problem flushing it all down the drain. I usually juice celery and greens last - they produce longer pieces of fiber that sticks to the blades. Usually I can clean them of the blade assembly just by putting it under running water, sometimes I use my fingers (carefully) for stuck pieces.I have been juicing mostly carrots, apples, pears, celery, red beets, ginger, papayas, mangoes, parsley, bell peppers. The harder the fruit (or vegetable), the better the juicer works. For papayas and mangoes it needs more fiber to work efectively - I usually mix it up with apples or carrots and run moist pulp couple times through the juicer.It is also very effective potato grinder. I love potato pancakes, and with plastic bit instead of the screen it grinds well.The hardest part for me is to find a space in my kitchen. I am in a small bachelor, and the countertop space is at a premium. Also, because of a powerful motor, the machine is heavy. Moving it around is a pain (which is not a problem if you have a stationary space for it).I give it 4 stars because it does not handle soft fruits the best. Also, I wish the feed chute was larger in diameter. Cutting up fruits and veggies takes most of the prep time. I wish I could juice the whole apple or potato without cutting....
