Summary: 5 Stars
I LOVE this juicer! I got this last week and have been juicing limes and lemons ever since. I really like that it gives you the option of straining out the pulp if you want. And I like the fact that the cone rotates in both directions. And that there are 2 sizes of cones - one for lemons/limes, another for oranges/grapefruit. This juicer really gets ALL the juice out of the lemons and limes. It's very stable and doesn't wobble or "walk" while it's operating. It's easy to use and doesn't take up much room in my cabinet. My only wish is that the detachable parts were dishwasher safe . . . the manual says to hand wash them. I still give it five stars because it works so well! Now if they could just come up with an electric citrus zester . . . Customer Review: absolute piece of junk!!!!!!!!!

I bought this citrus juicer merely because of the "good" reviews it got. Had I actually been able to see it and touch it, I would have never bought it. It's the most cheaply made, poorly designed piece of junk I've ever seen! This thing is a joke! I ordered it online. I chose this particulare juicer because of the high ratings it got. I wonder, how could anyone possibly give this a good rating????? Without even using it, one could easily "feel" that it is very cheaply made. What a great disappointment I had when I first took it out of the box! I said to myself: "Well, I bought it . . . I might as well use it." The very first minute I tried juicing a ripe orange, the gears started to grind, the motor stopped, and the thing made a loud racket. It's unbelieveably noisy! I called DeLonghi to report my complaint. The rep there said that mine was probably damaged during the shipment (how could that possibly be when the box and the juicer were perfectly free from any visible damage?). He said that I would be sent another one free of charge. How nice?!?!?! It arrived about two weeks later. Expecting this replacement to be working fine, I tried it, and it was just as bad as the first one I bought (very weak motor which would freeze up, gears grinding, very noisy, etc.). I called DeLonghi again telling them about the replacement they sent me not working properly. After lengthly discussion with various reps, they finally agreed to send me a third replacement (free of charge). Well, you guessed it. The third one broke down in about a week. I took it apart, and I saw the cheap plastic gears with some of the teeth stripped off. --- Final thought . . . Shame on you, DeLonghi, for manufacturing and marketing a ridiculous piece of junk!!!!!Customer Review: Not very long lasting

I have only had this juicer for a few months and it stopped working today. I have probably only used it a dozen times. The last few times I used it, it got extremely loud and today, it simply stopped spinning. The juicer has nice features (i.e. the tray that catches the pulp), but it simply isn't durable. I can't believe I have to throw this thing away after so few uses. Very disappointing.Customer Review: pooly made

This product isn't very sturdy. It also doesn't work well on larger citrus fruits. Mine literally broke into pieces when I waas trying to remove the piitcher from the base after very few uses. Not impressive at all.
