 Great little juicer! Apr 18, 2011
By Sewbusy
When I first opened the box, I thought, uh oh, seems rather cheap. But it is great! It just zips through the oranges! I wanted something that would be quick and easy for my family to whip up a fresh glass of juice in the morning, and this is does the job. My 4 yr old granddaughter was thrilled to make her own juice, it is that easy. I like that the juice drips down into a pitcher that pops off the base and can be put on the table for breakfast. It puts a lot of pulp in the juice, but we like pulp. If you don't, it is simple enough to pour it through a strainer or colander before you drink it. This little baby takes those citrus fruits right down to the rind, so you have to watch you don't over-juice and make your juice bitter. Quite powerful!
I already have one of the big boys - a Breville juice extractor. Love it! But who wants drag that big heavy thing onto the counter, then peel oranges in the morning just to get a glass of juice? This is quick, easy, and a great bargain as well. You don't need to spend a fortune to get a great product. We have made a full pitcher of juice in a couple of minutes without any slowing down of the motor. There are two sizes of reamers, which is handy. And it fits compactly under my counter.
Just a note if you get one - there is a tiny band of cardboard that secures the motor for shipping. It is on the center post under the place where the reamers fit on. If you don't remove it, the motor won't come on when you push down on the reamer to make juice. I thought the machine was broken when I first tried to use it, and there is no mention of this thing on the instructions. As for the shipping, it came in just a couple of days, which I appreciated.

An excellent little machine. Feb 14, 2011
By M. E. Bell
I have very productive grapefruit, orange, and lime trees on my property and this year has been the best ever. This little machine does all it promises to do. I like the pulp so I just remove
the few seeds I get in the filter and pour in the leftover pulp, filling half gallon bottles of the orange and grapefruit juices without a wimper from this little $15 baby. Cleaning is a snap under the faucet and air drying before I put the machine away. I just wish I hadn't waited so long. Incidently, I have 2 or 3 appliances from Aroma and have had excellent results.

 Rated: Do Not Buy May 23, 2011
By R. LeRoy
The motor for the juicer broke within seconds of being turned on for the first time. The juicer was not handled by me in any way that was rough that would cause the motor to break within seconds of the juicers first use. I started pushing an orange onto the juicer and there was a clicking or snapping sound in the motor. The motor did not turn on after that. I would not buy this product again. I would have given the juicer zero stars, but giving an item zero stars is not an option.

 Decent juicer for the money May 23, 2011
By S. Harrison
For the price, I'm happy with this juicer. I've had a similar one of a different brand in the past (Black & Decker), and after an initial use this Aroma juicer seems comparable. I used it to juice 2" limes for margaritas, and the smaller reaming attachment worked well. The motor is loud, a bit louder than my old juicer, but it gets the job done. Cleaning was easy. The cord keeper feature is nice for tidy storage. If anything goes wrong in the near future, I'll post again, but based on my initial use, I recommend this juicer to anyone who wants an electric option for casual use without breaking the bank.

Great little juicer! Feb 15, 2009
By S. Nielson
This is the third one of these we have owned. Each lasts about 10 years of pretty heavy use when lemons are season. It works great to juice and separate most of the seeds. I freeze 1 cup of lemon juice in a quart ziplock bag to make use of the lemonade during the year. Just add 1 c sugar and 2 quarts water. Perfect!
