Coming out of a high-end juicer, I find this very effective, waste is still very wet, so the yield is equivalent see below centrif good with the advantage of having non-degraded by the heat juice by the rotation of Centrif. The device seems a bit fragile, after a month of use, there is already stripes that appear on the box. Moreover, it is not waterproof and juice flows along the motor axis, entering the block, which augur future little oxidation problems. The device is really difficult to clean and very long, the fibers being firmly blocked. I think for all that contains fibers it is best to cut into small pieces. Not suitable for making fruit juices or soft vegetables, bananas, tomatoes, avocados, mangoes, do not pass, it makes mashed potatoes and a large part remains in the machine. Works well with apples, carrots (it must still cut not to block the device), zucchini, cucumbers. The unit activates apples without cutting it's convenient, it is also silent. It is not marked in the ad but is sold with the sieve smoothies and special sieve or puree sorbet. I never tried other juicers in my opinion is absolute and not relative to other market products. I think I rather recommend a product other than this one, more qualitative than the Hurom, I think he did not even last 2 years of warranty.
