Ultra Juicer

I bought this juicer back in January 2022, and the biggest compliment I can give it is that it is still working to this day without giving me any problems. For a kitchen appliance with moving parts, that kind of long-term reliability matters more to me than a flashy first impression. This is a centrifugal-style juicer with a wide 3-inch feed chute, dual speeds, separate juice and pulp containers, and an anti-drip design, and in actual use it feels like a well-thought-out machine. The wider chute makes prep easier, and I like that it is simple enough to use without feeling overly complicated. Cleanup has also been manageable, especially since it comes apart for cleaning and includes a brush for the filter basket. What stands out most for me is the overall durability. I have owned this for several years now, and it has kept doing its job without drama. That alone makes it feel like a quality product. A lot of small appliances can seem nice at first and then start failing after regular use, but this one has held up well for me. It also helps that it covers the basics people actually care about: it is easy to understand, easy to use, and built well enough that I have not felt like I am fighting with it. The juice and pulp separation is convenient, and the machine has felt dependable in day-to-day use. Overall, this has been a solid, reliable juicer in my kitchen. The fact that it is still going strong after years of use is the reason I would call it quality.

I’ve used for a few times and it does the job. It’s easy to use and not too hard to clean. Good if you want something simple for juices at home.

UPDATE: Right after I posted my original review the company reached out to me. They said no piece of plastic should have broken off and that it must have been a defective product. They offered to replace the entire juicer. This company has amazing customer service and I'll definitely buy from them again. You probably can't get a better juicer for the price. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because a piece of plastic broke off the lid the second day I used this. Nothing bad happened and it still works perfectly, but had that piece gone into the blade... it would have been bad. Otherwise this is an excellent juicer. It's really easy to use and if you wash the pieces right away clean up is fast. As soon as I'm done juicing I put all the pieces in a dish full of soapy water so nothing gets stuck. Once I have a few minutes to wash, everything comes right off. I also put a plastic bag in the pulp bin to make clean up even easier. The blade is the only tricky part to clean but a really great brush is included in the box so that helps a lot. Overall I'd definitely recommend this juicer if you're looking for a good bang for your buck. I've used it almost every day since I've had it and I have no complaints other than the plastic piece breaking off.

I don't write many reviews but felt this was definitely worthy. I bought this juicer for my wife last Valentine's Day so this is almost a year old. First off, my wife is the primary user of the product and I asked here what she liked about it: Pros: - Good juicer, gets the job done without much fuss - Relatively small footprint so doesn't take up much counter space - Easy to clean, parts easily disassemble to make clean up easy (word of advice don't use dishwasher as you risk minor warping on certain parts) - Isn't too noisy for a juicer - Likes how the jug design helps filter out the pulp when you poor it into a glass - Customer service (see my comments below) Cons: - None really, it works great for juicing 10-12 oz. Keep in mind it's not a heavy duty commercial juicer as you are not spending hundreds of dollars on the product. Besides this being a great product though, the main reason you should buy this juicer is because of the company and customer service that stands behind it. There are a lot of products on Amazon with high marks and its hard to tell the quality and reputation of a company until you have a problem. So I bought the juicer about a year ago and it stopped working late last week. On Sunday, I emailed the company (muellerdirect dot com) in the morning, explaining the juicer stopped working and would like to see if I can get it replaced or fixed. Within a few hours of the email I sent on a Sunday, they responded to me, apologizing for the unit not working and quickly offering me a chance to replace the unit. Monday, the next day, I emailed them with my Amazon order details and shipping information and boom!!!, 2 days later I had a new unit show up at our door step. There was no fuss, they didn't ask me to return the old one or hassle me with 10 different questions, they just provided awesome customer service. From the interactions I had with them, they claimed to be a family business so I was happy enough to write them a 5 star review on Amazon given my experience. In summary, great juicer for the price, does what it claims and has a 2 yr warranty that is backed up by a reputable company with awesome customer service. I highly recommend it!!!

8/9/2020 When I started using the juice machine, I was not happy. I had to wash 6 pieces and the juice was not totally extracted from the fruit. I contacted the company that has an excellent customer service. They shipped me another machine free but the juice issue continued. The company did not request me to return the first one. Then later I decided to get a new blade to see if the problem would stop. While waiting for the blade to arrive, I continue using the machine and got friendly to her. Yes it takes time to get familiar and accept the appliance as it is. I got the blade and it is the same but the issue is not really dramatic. In conclusion, for that price the machine works fine. It was cheaper when I bought the first one and retuned it since Amazon charged me the wrong credit card on file just expired. The second one was more expensive and now much more. It made in Austria and better than to use China products non stop. Yes it is noisy but if you wish to get a fruit juice in the comfort of your home, you would have to stand the noise for a couple of minutes. We have to give time to time and get use to the machine. I think that the machine got used to me and now I love it. I learned to juice 2 baby carrots packages plus apple, celery and ginger in one go and refrigerate it. I do not use the machine daily. And it works fine. The customer service deserves me to write that positive review in detail. I spoke to Sandra, Mila, Maya, Laura and Lucie and all were extremely polite, nice, friendly, professional and understanding. I have presently in my home 2 full appliances and an extra blade. I would highly recommend the appliance and the highly level excellent service if you crave for home natural juice fruits/vegetables. Good luck! Other questions, pls contact me via Amazon and I will be glad to respond. Sarina, FL 33316 11/17/2021 update I tried with sugar cane stick and did not work right. Either the sugar cane stick was too dry or the produce too hard on the machine. The machine stopped working and being under the warranty (3 years) the company was ready to replace it. Later when I plugged and tried it to make it work, it was back to normal. I rushed to call the company (working till midnight Eastern time) to request to stop the shipping. Yes the customer service of Mueller is unique in this country. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

I never really review items I buy on Amazon - but for this one I felt like I need to. This juicer is a decent one if you're new to juicing; very easy to use and you don't need much time spent on cutting the fruits/vegetables. Cleaning it won't take long either but good luck reaching some sections. As for the quality of juice, for someone who's been juicing for a while now, I wasn't satisfied. Not only that I need to strain it (my partner absolutely can't stand pulp) but it also wastes a lot of the fruits/vegetables. I end up wasting puddles when I juice things like pineapples and oranges. Cucumbers somehow end up being split in half and sent to the waste bin too. Lastly, you can clearly see the separation in the juice which is usually a sign of oxidation. All in all, it's a decent price compared to other brands. If you're new to juicing and want to experiment with juices twice a week then go for it. If you're a juice addict like myself, I recommend other brands as the quality only degraded the more I used it. I ended up returning it and buying a higher quality one.

I really wanted to love this product based on the reviews and price point. But, it's easy to see why it is priced so low. The juicer is not made to last. I've had it just two weeks and already have several issues: 1) Before I used it even once, when assembling the top piece, a chunk of plastic broke off (see picture). The plastic does not seem very durable, and to be honest, I'm concerned that some day, a heavy piece of pulp will come crashing through the plastic. 2) The top "pusher" piece has come apart. I noticed when taking it out of the dishwasher that there was water sloshing around inside of it - which seemed insane. But, although this is advertised as dishwasher-friendly, the seal was very weak, and the top popped right off. This was only the second time this item was put through the dishwasher, and it was placed on the top rack, so it didn't bear the full brunt of the washer jets. 3) While the juicer was running, the power button popped off and flew across the kitchen! I had to crawl under the table to get the knob, because it is impossible to shut off the juicer without the knob. Additionally, although I am not juicing heavy skins/peels (I peel all oranges, lemons, etc., before use), the pulp struggles to make its way from the chute into the waste bin. It makes for a much messier cleanup and seems to clog the chute area. From a positive perspective, all the parts do seem relatively easy to clean. It takes no more than 5 minutes to completely wash each part, including the centrifugal/blade piece. All pieces were put through the dishwasher just twice, so I cannot speak to the durability after several washes. In general, I am disappointed in this product, especially given the fact that most other reviews were quite positive. Perhaps I received a defective unit; but, honestly, it just seems this juicer model is not well constructed.

I was reading the reviews and was a little hesitate. I’m glad I didn’t listen. What works for one person may not work as well for the next. I wanted to wait a few weeks until I gave this juicer a REAL chance. Boy was I NOT disappointed! I frequently consume real juices. And this juicer (for the value) was one of the best juices I had. Not once has the motor shut off from over heating. Possibly because I’m cutting them into smaller pieces. I see some reviews that say apples are the worst to juice on this juicer. I humbly disagree. And urge to retry with smaller pieces. Shouldn’t be that complicated it wasn’t for me. The first time I cleaned the juicer it took a little around ten minutes to really full clean it. After my first ten uses it doesn’t take longer than 5-7 minutes to clean it. The assemble and disassemble couldn’t not have been easy. The mess isn’t really a mess since the recycled fruit stays in the bin for me and all the pieces come off easily to clean. So Genuinely and honestly I am so glad I invested in this juicer! Instead of leaving a negative review, try giving it a solid chance to work. I purchased the warranty in addition to the juicer because I know for myself I can be a bit clumsy with my kitchen products. Reviews really matter. I even went on here to check reviews before my purchase which did hinder my purchase by three weeks. Reviews really affect so try not giving up after a couple of uses. I hope this helps!
