Very disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really excited to try the Black and Decker - 400W Rapid Juice Extractor but was very quickly disappointed. The overall unit was packaged very well & the juicer is relatively easy to assemble/disassemble. My disappointment came in how it actually worked. I wound up juicing 5 bananas & an orange & the majority of the fruit wound up in the pulp container. Most of the bananas & all of the orange went into the pulp container. Now I've never had a juicer before so maybe I expected more juice to come from the amount of fruit I used than what would be realistic but it didn't seem right when I saw more going into the pulp container than in my actual cup. I tried looking in the instruction manual to make sure I had everything correct but nowadays manuals don't really tell you much. I also wasn't too happy with the cleanup. When I took the top off, there was fruit all underneath & the blade/strainer container was very hard to clean. If you have a dishwasher it might be okay but for those of us who don't & have to hand wash everything, I was having a hard time trying to scrub out all the debris caught in the mesh without getting cut by the sharp blades. At this point I definitely would not recommend this juicer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for offering your feedback regarding your Black+Decker Rapid Juicer. I'm sorry to hear that you were somewhat disappointed with the amount of juice the juicer had produced, but I'm glad it has been operating properly. When juicing banana's it is normal to not get a lot of juice, and sometimes you may only get a dribble of juice out of it. I want to assure you that we proactively monitor feedback from consumers like you to drive continuous improvement into our products, and your comments and experience will be shared with our Quality and Engineering Team. I'm confident your new juicer will provide excellent performance, but should you ever need assistance with it, I'd be happy to help.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon first unboxing I was excited to see how small this juicer was, excellent for space saving. I have tried a number of different fruits and vegetables in it. It is great for apples, berries, carrots, cucumbers. It makes more of a puree with things like banana and persimmon. However, when I tried leafy greens i.e kale, spinach the basket would easily clog after just a few pieces. So I would not recommend trying those in this juicer. The juicer is also very loud.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new Black and Decker 400W Rapid Juice Extractor, it grinds everything I put in it up fast and juicy. It is also a pretty quiet running machine.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been looking for a juicer that was easy to use. This juicer is exactly that. Just put the fruit or vegetable you're wanting to juice in the smaller side and use the press while it's on to gently push the fruit or vegetable through. The juice come out one side and the pulp good into the larger compartment on the other. PSA: If you're trying to juice a fruit or vegetable like avocado or banana, it will come out more like a thick Smoothie.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Receives this and never thought I'd use a juicer. My family is trying to cut out sugar and other things and get healthy. This is such a big help and came at the right time! So excited to try new and different juice combinations!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon receiving this juicer I was very impressed with the packaging and the wording/description on the box. I couldn't wait to get it out of the box and begin using it. It is very compact, but works great for the basic juicer. You do have to cut the fruit or vegetables up pretty small in order to fit and not get stuck and that would really be my only complaint about the product. It was easy to assemble and since it is so compact it is easy to clean up and put in the dishwasher to clean. I would recommend this to someone looking for a starter juicer!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion. The opinion expressed is 100% my own. This juicer works fast the juice came out almost instantly from the time the food was fed in to the top. The esthetics of the juicer or very nice, it is well streamlined and nice to look at. The minor complaints I have are the noise the product makes during operation. If I wanted to prep juice before I left for work early in the morning it would be too loud for that purpose. One other small complaint is that the pulp goes everywhere. When I tried to clean the pulp out instead of having it in 1 place the pulp was in at least 3 places inside the unit. It was difficult to clean. Over all I would recommend this product to a friend that is interested in juicing. This was my 1st juice or however it did not disappoint but I must be selective about when I juss.
