bit-tech Shopping: Star Jack LaLanne's Power Juicer

Rating: 2

Time with product:

Strengths: zero

Weaknesses: Plastic threads on motor base break.

Summary: I went to an estate sale the other day and was so happy to find a Jack La Lanne's Power jucer for sale. It looked brand new as if it had never been used. Then this morning I tryed it out only to find out that the blade which threads on to the motor was stripped off the motor shaft. I would never go to the expense of 50 dollars to replace the motor to make it work. The threads are so small that I know it would break again a short time later.

Strengths: Makes good juice

Weaknesses: BAD design

Summary: After only 4 months of use, the screw peg on my Jack LaLanne Juicer broke into three pieces. Customer service insisted it was a good design and only wonted to sell me another motor at $50. Why would I won't to spend $50 on an inferrior product

Strengths: Juiced well

Weaknesses: Plastic part of motor housing

Summary: I enjoyed using this juicer until it broke. The plastic part of the motor housing that you screw the blade onto fell apart. It should be made out of metal. I don't know why it isn't. I won't buy another one. I thought it did a good job juicing.
