Juiceman Juicer Jr

Reviews are mixed for the Juiceman Juicer Jr. Many veteran juicers love it and believe that it is far better than its close competitors such as the similarly featured Power Juicer Deluxe. But then again, there are just as many long-time juicer users who think that the Juiceman Jr. is a total waste of their hard-earned cash.

Should you believe the believers or go with the naysayers? Here is a short discussion of the pros and cons of the Juiceman Jr. Read them and then decide if this product is truly worth having in your kitchen.

The Pros of the Juiceman Jr.

The best thing going for the Juiceman Jr. is its compact size. It stands 12 inches high and around 16 inches wide, and it only weighs around 12 pounds. Space is not going to be an issue when you buy this juicer. You can also easily lug it around wherever you wish to take it.

The Juiceman Jr. is also an efficient machine. It is a centrifugal juicer, so it makes use of stainless steel blades to cut the produce to get as much juice out of it. After pulp ejection, you will find that the pulp is mostly dry.

Price is perhaps the biggest advantage of the Juiceman Jr. Although its retail price is posted at $199 on Amazon, the prices of this product varies. You can even get it for as low as $50 from discount stores.

The Cons of the Juiceman Jr.

Inasmuch as this petite Juiceman model has its advantages, it also has a few disadvantages. The biggest of these is the fact that the wire mesh that separates the pulp from the juice in this machine can be difficult to clean. It has to be scrubbed with a brush, which can be a time-consuming process.

The Juiceman Jr. can also be quite noisy for a small machine. Its blades can spin as loudly as vacuum cleaners.

Lastly, this Juiceman product has only .25 horsepower. While this may mean it will not add to your monthly watts consumption too much, it can also mean that the Juiceman Jr. is underpowered.

The Juiceman Juicer Jr. has its advantages and disadvantages, just like any product. In the end, you should make your decision depending on your own juicing needs.
