I bought this citrus juicer when my other one broke down. Haven’t used it yet, but will next week when I have to juice 24 pieces.

I’ve used this juicer only for small jobs and it performed satisfactorily. For this price, I couldn’t expect more. When the time comes to replace this juicer, I’ll shop for one more substantial.

My husband and I waited with anticipation for this machine to arrive. Imagine our disappointment when it came and we plugged it in, only to find that it was completely dead. We called the company, and were told to cut off the cord and send it (the cord) back, along with a note, receipt, and a five-dollar check to cover the cost of shipping a new one. We don’t even know if we want to try another one after that experience.

We purchased this juicer three years ago and the motor is powerful and good for the price, but the motor mechanism is finicky (doesn’t always start promptly when you press down) and the plastic gears ground themselves up in three years. It was good in the meantime for juicing limes and oranges (two different juicing attachments) but cheap plastic gears inside sealed its fate in the end.
I’d repair it, but there is no customer support for internal components out of warranty, and it is not serviced by Black & Decker but by a third party kitchen company that also does George Foreman products and breadmakers. In the meantime, I’m hunting for a 1 cent, 40 tooth to 8 tooth reducing gear that ground itself down to 40 teeth to 1 tooth.
Good design, cheap plastic gears, Black and Decker in decoration only.

The title says it all.
Very un-expensive and cheap device. It works though. . .
“you get what you pay for” motto has never been so precise and true.
