Easy to use, but not that easy too clean. Noisy, but probably can't be helped. Quite expensive for all it is.
K TahariEasy to wash and store. It’s very hard to push veg and fruits, taking long time to squeeze it, not time saving!
Izabela. Makes apples into apple sauce not juice
SamuelI would not recommend this product.Positives- easy to clean and assemble- non drip function keeps worktop clean- small footprint (11cm)Negatives- very wet pulp. I have been pushing my pulp through a sieve to get the rest of the juice out- shute is tiny. I had to cut cucumber into 4 and apple into 8.- requires a lot of pressure on the veg to create the juiceI am returning product for a refund

I have had problems with fitting in the head in and not starting after few weeks purchase. Problems with starting motor and unpredictable for 3 years. Now it does not work at all. Never buying Phillips juicer ever again.
book wormI had high hopes for this product, first it's a Philips, and second it is expensive. I was very disappointed to say the least. The feeding tube is incredibly small and thin, given it is a very slim and compact machine. But that means you have to cut your fruits and veg into almost bite size. And despite being generally well built and good quality material, when you push food items into the feeding tube, the plastic of the main machine does flex a lot and that worries me in longevity of the product. But worse of all, it DOES NOT squeeze a lot of juice compared to my older conventional juicer. Instantly I know the difference because my recipes requires now 2 if not 3 times as much as before. And you can tell that the bulb is soaking wet.TLDR: Small feeding tube, does not squeeze a lot of juice thus requiring more ingredients than necessary. Not recommended.
SWUGood points are that it is very easy to assemble/disassemble. It is compact and not too loud. The Juice produced is deliciousBad points are that you need to cut down the pieces into smaller bits as the feeder is quite small and you need to feed it regularly and also need to push down often as gravity does not quite do the job.Another point to note is that it doesn't really juice effectively, definitely does not feel like it juices 90%, when you touch the pulp, a slight squeeze in you hand reveals that it is not that dry and lot of juice could have been squeezed out by the machine.I paid £200 and I had to return and get my money back.

The motor can't start. It's a complete waste of time and money. The parts are cheaply made of plastics. Still waiting for Amazon to refund.
Frances X. SunAs you can see in the video, the orange light started flashing. I tried juicing a carrot and it didn't work.I called the phillips juicer number 0207 949 0240 today. We tried to trouble shot and nothing was working.Amazon is great and provided me with a return label. That's why I give them two stars instead of one. I decided to re order as I have faith in Phillips as well as amazon. I believe in these two companies and hopefully get a working juicer soon :)
Mr. Che K. LamIt wasts too much fruit for what it is. In comparison to the omega juicer, it does waste quite a bit. Not really as good as what I thought it would be.
Marchy18Really liked the whole thing very compact and Morden but was really let down, it does not juice the whole mechanism keeps the juice in and when it realeases it it so thick like purée not cool want a juicer not a purée machine pass it on!
ZHANAYAHI've been using for a while, and must admit to being a little disappointed.Firstly, it looks smart. It is nice and compact and doesn't take up too much space. It looks and feels well-made and decent quality. It's also much quieter in operation than other juicers I've tried.But I really don't get the 90% claim; a lot of fruit seems to get caught in the mechanism. I find it really fiddly and difficult to clean. And the fruit feeder/spout is really narrow. This means you have to do quite a lot of chopping and can't just chuck the fruit in.So overall it's good, but not really sure it's worth the price.
SydI wanted to love this juicer. I really did. And the first few uses were good (hence the one star, otherwise zero would’ve been more appropriate). But now the only juice it produces is pure PULP. It is totally undrinkable. I have been passing the juice through a sieve and it barely runs through the sieve, it’s so thick.I must admit I bought this juicer largely based on the glowing reviews, on closer inspection these reviews have all been written in return for a free item. Don’t be fooled!
JLI have several Phillips juicers, they are large but work well perfect for large volume juicing.This juicer is much more compact. The instructions to set it up are basic, a picture of how it is assembled. This will be fine for those who can do self assembly furniture without the instructions, I needed a few minutes to lay it all out and examine the pieces. The metal parts are well constructed and the plastic good quality for plastic.The good bits===========This model is different uses a screw mechanism to extract the juice. Its compact, and can sit out on your work top for daily use.The juice collector sits neatly inside the pulp collector when not in use.It’s quiet in operation. Like all juicers I’ve used you need a lot of fruit to get a glass full of juice.Home juicing always produces froth, which settles a little on standing. The juice extractor collector has a ‘mesh’ on one side and this can be used to filter out a lot pulp and froth which comes through. Helpful to get children to drink the juice when its not the same as what comes from the supermarket.A recipe book is included for fruit and vegThe not so good bits=================The machine is slow, I felt it needed two speeds at least, as a lot of fruit does not make it into the extractor, just sits in the mechanism.The feeder tube is very small- see pictures, it will hardly fit any thing bigger than a segment of orange. This means you have to spend a lot of time preparing the fruit.The instructions say it takes soft fruit, it does but it does not extract the juice very well. A whole punnet of strawberries produced a juice with a hint of strawberry, most of the strawberry was still in the mechanism and 2 apples had to be juiced to encourage it out of the machine.The pulp collector needs to contact a sensor at the back of the machine. This is easy to miss especially when standing over the machine. As a safety feature this makes complete sense, but I thought the mechanism was blocked and spent a long time taking it apart and cleaning it.The company states its
Sue HPhilips innovative Micro Masticating technology is designed to open up the cells of fruits and vegetables to squeeze the maximum out. NOTE:The amount of moisture that remains in the pulp depends on: 1. The type of fruit (the moisture content varies for each type of fruit) 2. The fibre contained in the fruit (it can block the mesh holes of the sieve so that the juice flows into the pulp container instead of the jug) There are several precautions that you can take to avoid fibre from clogging the sieve: 1. Clean all parts of the juicer thoroughly after each use 2. Insert the fruit slowly and do not insert more than one piece at a time 3. Do not exert too much pressure on the pusher
