After 9 months of daily use, here is my opinion (I do not will detail the benefits, the other comments already explicit): - At the 2nd juice, nectarine core piece I had not seen happened in the screw: loud noise, I turn off the machine apart and see the damage first: the striped and slightly damaged screws ... nectarine core is not hard, it happens happens if a cherry stone or apricot happens in the screw? - The first weeks, fine, leave residues wet but not wet fingers, everything goes directly without causing a traffic jam porridge, which unfortunately is clearly no longer the case now: - Apples usually will cause the slurry, especially if they are mealy - Kiwi fruit of the same - Even the orange or grapefruit accumulate - I recommend to cut everything into pieces to facilitate the work of the screw: eg carrots and beets - Turmeric is very abrasive and the screw is cleaned only hot water after - The extraction turns and moves together with the amplitude is increased over time - My solution not to lose the juice: Pour 100-200 ml of water and then tilt down the camera, water helps to "cleanse" bottling, then leave to idle 1 minute. - After extraction "hard" (beet, carrot) the bolt locks into the engine, there is a slight factory set. - Although I did not express that almost leaves, grass and vines, wear is important, the screw and barrel should the price be in stainless steel, because I'm already going to have to change them for proper performance . For example the juice is now more granular, including with apples or pears. For a price to 400 Euros, the value for money time is not adequate. Spare parts should be available free, for 50 E screw, the case does not prove profitable. 15-year warranty for the engine while the parts during normal use are to change after one year. My family owns the Neo Oscar, which presents the same problems, but costs less 140E, I therefore recommends clearly.
