I know on two of these Cuisinart juicers, one in each of our homes. The one in Arizona gets an incredible work out during orange season. It’s amazing how this little machine holds up juicing hundreds of oranges. I bought one for our other home for occasional juicing, just because it’s such a great machine.
The first and only time I used the juicer, it kept blowing the circuit of my GFCI outlet—at least once or twice for each of 6 lemons. I moved to a different GFCI circuit, but it also blew. Maybe I had a bad unit? Also, although I had a 4-cup measuring cup under the spout, the unit kept slipping as I was pressing the down on the lemons, moving the spout away the measuring cup, causing lemon juice to spill onto the kitchen counter. Out of fear of causing an electrical fire in my house, I returned the Cuisinart juicer and am looking for one with a built-in juice collector that won’t blow the circuits. Cuisinart also needs to redesign their unit with a grippier base, and a way to secure the juice collection vessel so it moves with the spout. I was actually hoping Cuisinart would have a juicer accessory that I could insert into my Cuisinart food processor, a feature my previous food processor (Braun) had. All in all, the Cuisinart citrus juicer is a bad design.
Very pleased with this Juicer! I frequently make margaritas and it makes swift work of juicing a ton of limes and oranges. I get more juice from each fruit so need to adjust recipes, but that's a good thing! A critical feature for me is that it's super easy to clean - not really more work than cleaning my standard lime press (as long as you clean it right away). As long as it lasts a decent life, I will consider it an excellent purchase!
