Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Waring JEX328 Health Juice Extractor
Customer Review: Nice looking, Inefficient
Summary: 2 Stars
I've had many juice extractors before and this one defenitely looks better than most of them and is reasonably priced. Unfortunately it is an extremely, i mean extremely inefficient machine. The pulp it leaves is not just wet, it is soaking with juice. Even lightly squeezing that pulp with hand produces a lot of juice, which this machine could not collect. It is no wonder it happens though, just take a look at the extractor mechanism and the first think that comes to mind is "hm, this must miss a lot of juice" and indeed it does. I would return it if I could and get a better machine, as I am paying almost twise as much for produce for the same amount of juice. The only question I have is who writes all those reports praising how good a machine this is, probably Warring itself.Do not buy this machine, look for something else, you can hardly do worse.
Customer Review: Easy to Use, Quick Clean-Up, Good Looks & Solid Construction
Summary: 4 Stars
Since purchasing this extractor 6 weeks ago, I have used this on a daily basis. Ease of clean-up was critical in the selection process and I haven't been disappointed. Aesthetically, this machine looks nice on the kitchen counter and the stainless steel cup eliminates any worries about ending up with yellowed, stained plastic parts.If you're interested in making primarily OJ, this may not be the right juicer for you, though. If you're juicing strictly oranges, you'll have to empty out the pulp basket after 2 oranges. Any more than two and this is the one scenario that will make this juicer leak. I have found that by alternating oranges with apples or carrots, I can juice 6+ oranges in one session.
Fortunately, our local discount club started selling these for 1/2 of retail so I got a great deal. Regardless, this would have been an excellent purchase.
Customer Review: Great Value For The Money
Summary: 4 Stars
I will start by saying that I am not an expert on juicers. However, I know a good kitchen appliance when I try it. I just tried this juicer and I made a variety of juices. It handled everything I wanted it to do very well. Some juice from the oranges I juiced did not drain into the cup, but I am told that is to be expected. It kind of hung out at the bottom of the "basket" with the pulp. This seems to be a very powerful, economical, and easy to clean juicer. I was impressed at how quickly and easily it was doing the vegetables, especially the carrots. The basket and surroundings pop out for easy cleaning. A minus is that some juice tends to leak out the front seam near the top of the appliance at times (especially with the oranges). Over all, I would recommend this juicer to anyone who wants a cheap but good appliance.Customer Review: A very nice juicer
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading the reviews of all different models, some costing more and some costing less, I settled on this one. I have to admit I also went to a local store and saw each of the machines in person to examine the quality. And I'm glad I picked it. It is a NICE machine.The motor seems plenty powerful and the entire unit assembles and disassembles easily.
My only complaint, and this is very minor.... with the machine properly assembled, sometimes some of the pulp manages to splash out of the machine and collect on the front of the unit. It is a very small amount, but I'm surprised the seal isn't perfect.
But if you're thinking about a juicer, I would say definitely get this one. I feel it is better than the other juicers where you have to buy an additional citrus attachment or paper filters.
Customer Review: Handled my needs like a champ.
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this juicer as it was relatively inexpensive, and I wasn't sure if I'd like juicing enough to invest in a more expensive model. I was very pleased to find that this particular model works like a champ! I use it at least 3 times weekly. There are other more powerful machines, but I've never experienced this motor having any difficulty with any hardroot vegetables I've used. Some other models are reported to be difficult to clean up, but if you wash the 3 easy parts right away, it takes you about 3 minutes. The unit isn't so large that it prohibits one from keeping it on the countertop, unlike larger sizes I've seen. Best of all, the overall process and cleanup is easy enough, that I use it regulary without hesitation. I have an incredibly new healthy lifestyle, thanks to my little juicer!
