Jack La Lanne Power Juicer

Advantages: Fantastic fresh juice
Disadvantages: Loads of fiddly bits to wash!

I bought this about a year ago via QVC thinking its a great way for my hubby to get healthy! I paid around £110.00 at that time it was the latest model. It looks great, although it is rather bulky and takes up much needed workspace. As for ease of use, yeah its certainly easy, certain fruits such as apples and pears can be put in whole. It has nut dispenser, great for cherries and nuts. There is a lot of wastage, although pulp can be saved and ...
...recipe book full of yummy juices and suggestions for the pulp. The juice tastes amazing, and there is nothing better than freshly squeezed juice. We do use it quite a bit so all in all a good purchase. The only down side is, there are so many bits to remove and clean! ... Read review

Advantages: Great tasting extracted juice.
Disadvantages: messy pulp and cleaning

OH WOW! get your favouite fruits and juice to your hearts content! I own the original power juicer not the new 'elite' version. It is whisper quiet and the blade does it's job soooo well, the juice comes out and unlike other juicers which leave horrible little bits and sediment it produces a luxurious smoothe fresh pure juice. Experiment to find what flavours go together, the benefits are 1. A good start to a more healthy diet. 2. The juice extracted ...
...about additives, preservatives, E numbers or hidden sugars. The down side of this product is the cleaning of it, the advert leads the consumer to believe that most of the pulp is collected in the pulp receptical, this is misleading, open it all up as the inside will contain a slushy mess damp fruit pulp, the advert gives the impression that all you have to do is run it under the tap. Each part contains small grooves or small areas where it takes ... Read review

Advantages: Very well built and powerful juicer
Disadvantages: None

...am very happy. The Jack La Lanne Power Juicer surpassed my expectation for juicers. The performance is great and the pulp goes into my mulch pile. It is quite easy to use and assemble and disasemble for cleaning. Cleaning the machine is easy. Water doesn't get into the motor compartment and the parts are very easily cleanable and food doesn't get stuck in it. It is quite durable and well built. The user's manual was clear and simple as is using the ... Read review

Advantages: best juicer i have found
Disadvantages: cleaning

ive had this for about 2 years and ive only probably used it 5 times but if you say you buy alot of fruits and veg and enjoy them i think this would be a good buy it can do so many things like use whole fruit's use soft and hard fruits and even vegetables. it has a pulp collector which is sufficient enough for about 10 pieces of fruit and veg. i paid 100 pound for this and ive think it is worth that price but the only 2 problem is the cleaning it ...

Advantages: Very quick, no preperation needed!
Disadvantages: Very expensive and not easily available.

...**** YOU REALLY NEED ONE OF THESE**** This is a really simple way of ensuring you get the guidelined five fruit and vegetables per day. And if you not sure what juices to make , no worried it comes with a recipe book which also includes a really cool diet plan. My mum bought one of these about a month ago and i haven't stopped using it since. There no need to chop the vegetable/fruits up as the juicer with chop and peel the item for you. It takes hardly any preparation (unless the vegetable is very big then you need to chop it). You get these juicers from about £98.00 but they can go up to £120. But they really are worth it....

Advantages: Lets you have that 5 a day in a drink, without the preservatives
Disadvantages: Cleaning like every appliance

...Jack La Lanne’s Power Juicer I have to say has really made a difference within our family, with me and two young children who dislike fruit and vegetables this has been a great way to get us taking all those natural ingredients, vital vitamins and that 5 a day thing that the government keep going on about. The battle is won when the children get to pick and choose what they want to put in the juicer, which half the battle this way they take ownership rather than you trying to tell them that it is good for them, as they put the fruit or vegetables in and push down on the plunger the juice comes out before their vary eyes and I mean there is loads of it and very little in the pulp, in fact it is almost bone dry and the pulp can be used to make very tasty muffins, try it. You can change the colour and taste of the drink just by adding... Read review

Advantages: Looks good, really throws out the juice
Disadvantages: Won't take whole fruit such as apples and pears; fixing screw used on blade

...I'm writing this here because this particular model only comes up in the shopping section and you can't write a review there for some reason. The Power Juicer Express is the 'slimline' version of the original Jack La Lanne power juicer but is supposed to have the same effectiveness. This is my first juicer and juice itself is gorgeous. Learning curve - after two weeks and half a dozen attempts at juicing, I really feel I have the hang of it. Despite what it says on the JLL website, it really doesn't handle whole fruit such as apples and pears. Now I chop each into about three or four pieces and these push through without jamming the motor. Oranges and other citrus fruit you have to slice off the skin, leaving the pith, and whoosh, out comes this luscious fresh juice. Pear is fabulous, on it's own or with apple, as is pineapple...
