I have discovered the juicer from Philips at the breakfast buffet at the hotel and I was thrilled. Therefore, I have bought myself the press a year ago for my household. The unit makes optical well (own the silver variant) and is very quiet. Also the device does not splash orange juice throughout the kitchen, as I experienced it with my old copy. The Cleaning under running water is easy and I am writing although I do not have a dishwasher. The machine is with me almost daily in use and so far I can not fault it.
