Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Hamilton Beach 67600 Big Mouth Juice Extractor, White
Customer Review: Metal-on-Plastic contact
Summary: 2 Stars
Those of you in the market for a juicer know already that there is quite a gulf between the low and the high end. The "best" juicers seem to be in the triple digit price range while "everything else," though affordable, seems to be fraught with poor design schemes or poor performance. I had hope that the Hamilton Beach name and the $69 price point MIGHT even out to make a decent juicer. Unfortunately, this is not the case.
The device works extremely well. The motor is very powerful and it will juice just about anything you put through it. Ginger. Parsnips. Even almonds. Clean up is the usual hassle but you can get into routine. The chord is VERY short but...again... I wasn't looking for industrial quality.
If these were the only problems, I would be praising the Big Mouth. Sadly, the machine is designed to have the steel mesh strainer (the where the "business" of juicing occurs) sit atop a plastic basket. What this means is that modest, completely understandly "pushing" with the "pusher" will cause the mesh basket to make contact with the plastic. This leads to the delightful smell of burning plastic and to the eventual warping of the basket itself.
When this happened the first time, I had only had the device a few weeks. So I assumed I had done something wrong. Hamilton Beach kindly sent a replacement basket (wrong color, but that's ok). This time, the device lasted another two months before the same problems cropped up. The problem of steel-plastic contact JUST started so I rubbed a little olive oil around the lip of the contact area and that MIGHT buy me a few days before warping.
Hamilton Beach is "unaware" of any design flaws and suggests that I am washing the item in too-hot of water! I told them I hand wash the device, but they still think it's the consumer's fault somehow. But, they will happily send me a replacement basket, free of charge.
Oh, and on a related topic... the "food pusher" WILL make contact with the spinning blade and WILL create the smell of burning plastic.
