I was replacing a 5 yr old Cuisinart citrus juicer. always completely satisfied. it looked identical to this new one. the newer one is not the same quality or performance. it was lightweight and when trying to juice, it made a lot of noise and did not do the juicing like the old one. it was very inferior to my prior cuisinart juicer.. the quality is not the same as the old one. unless I got a lemon, I would not recommend this particular model.
