Customer Reviews for Cuisinart Cuisinart® Pulp Control Citrus Juicer

Cuisinart Cuisinart® Pulp Control Citrus Juicer

The Cuisinart® Pulp Control Citrus Juicer features an adjustable reamer with 3 pulp control settings -- low, medium, high. The auto-reversing universal juicer cone provides more efficient juicing, while the Final-Spin feature extracts more juice from pulp. There's an extra-long Snap-Up spout that accommodates more glasses and prevents dripping, and a cover that activates the Final-Spin feature and protects against dust. Parts are dishwasher safe. With its brushed stainless steel finish, juicer will be both a helpful and attractive addition to your countertop. Three-year limited warranty. UL listed. Model # CCJ-500.

This is a great, inexpensive juicer. I like the fact that it reverses the spin direction in order to get every last drop out. It is easy to clean (just run it under hot water and toss it in the dish washer) and doesn't take up much room. Can't be beat for $30.

I asked my hubby for a new juicer. He bought me sheets. I returned them for this juicer. Really easy to use, my kids make their own orange juice all the time. Very happy with it I would recommend it.

loved the juicer when first used. Then, it broke down a few days later. Not sturdy enough for normal home use.

Ok for the price...but not great

I bought this juicer because I wanted an easier way to prepare citrus-only juice mixes in the morning (aside from taking the time to peel them and put them through my centrifugal juicer). I really wanted the Breville citrus press, but my local Bed Bath and Beyond didn't carry it, and I didn't want to wait for shipping so I settled on this. For being $30, it's okay. My first use with it was 4 oranges and 2 grapefruits. Here were the pros and cons:
Pros:
- As mentioned, it is inexpensive;
- It juices more quickly and easily than doing it by hand;
- It has a small counter top footprint;
- Cleanup is very easy, the moving parts come right off;
- I doubt this is powerful enough to hurt a child, so I plan on letting my 10 year old use this to juice his own oranges when I purchase the Breville;
- This seems like it would be good for a starter couple, or a dorm room.
Cons:
- It feels weak and rackety since it is plastic;
- The pulp control SUCKS. I don't mean that it doesn't keep pulp out, I mean that it can't even keep seeds out.
- It is very short, so I had to use one glass to juice into, then pour into a larger glass;
- The drip-proof spout clicks upward very violently, which splashes a bit of juice all along the counter;
- The cone upon which the halved citrus fruit sits is (as shown) very high above the basin. This results in juice droplets being flung across the countertop when juicing a new piece of fruit. I tried using the cover while juicing to prevent this from happening, but that didn't work out so well.
- As another user mentioned, the basin backs up and has to be cleaned often.
- It doesn't spin quickly enough to pull as much juice from the fruit as I think it should. When cleaned, the pulp in the basin is still very full of juice.

I actually like this juicer. My husband and myself love making fresh orange juice. The only bad thing is the pulp backs up and you have to keep cleaning it out. Other than that we love it and would recommend this product to anyone.

this is a really great juicer for the price. i love it and have used it several times so far. it is very easy cleanup and is a nice size to be able to keep out on the counter top without taking up too much space. i've only juiced lemons & limes with it so far, but can't wait to make fresh orange juice with it! very good product and would definitely recommend it.

I bought the juicer as a consolation, only because Bed, Bath & Beyond has fantastic coupons. I have had this juicer before. Twice. I had to warranty the unit as it, I believe, gets gunked up with sticky fruit juice & the spring return to shut the machine off fails to operat. To warranty the unit through Cuisinart's "limited" warranty, you - the customer - must pay the shipping cost round-trip. That's $25 - $30. Buying the unit brand new, with coupons at BD&B is less than $25. So, the reason I marked this unit as only 2*'s is because of Cuisinart. BB&B is excellent. As for the end result of good orange juice, the unit is OK.

Extremely easy to use, and to clean. I immediately showed my 8, 11, and 18 year old to use it, for the two little ones I cut the oranges off course, now their orange juice isn't boring, they enjoy making it, washing the maching, and drinking their juice. No sharp metal parts or anything like that, they love it and so do I.

I love my electric juicer. It's not something I use every day, but when I do, I'm sure glad I don't have to hand squeeze the fruit anymore.

I bought this because I needed lots of fresh lemon juice for a diet protocol. My apartment doesn't have a dishwasher or a garbage disposal. The juicer worked really well, but I was concerned about having pulp and seeds everywhere when I had to wash it. I did the final spin and then used a paper towel to wipe off what little was left - no problem! I didn;t even need to worry about cleaning the sink strainer because the paper towel got it all.

We make a lot of things with lemon juice in our home and this juicer is great! I used to juice the old fashioned way and it took forever. This cut the time down to nothing and clean up is a breeze! We keep it stashed on a shelf and it's easy to grab it, use it, clean it, and stash it again. I definitely recommend it if you do a fair amount of juicing.

An inexpensive way to get great juice. Work well but not great. The motor is made to go in both directions when u lift up on what u are squeezing but that does not work all the time. I got what I paid for but I still love it.

I wanted a juicer to make fresh lemon lime mix. It's a pretty good unit and a good value for the money. Does a bang up job on limes and oranges. Seems to have bit of trouble getting all the juice out of Eureka lemons, but that could be operator error. Very easy to clean. I'm a little concerned the the motor seems just up to the job, and everything is plastic. I've not had any problems, but I can see wear points that just won't hold up to lots of use. So, for light/intermittent use, highly recommended.

I happen to like pulp in my orange juice. Other people do not. The ability to alter the amount of pulp means not having to buy extra juice or argue over which is better.

I purchased this juicer because hundreds of lemons and oranges go to waste every year in my backyard. It is great!! I thought maybe since it was less expensive, it would also be of poor quality but that was not the case at all. In fact, just after I purchased it, my doctor suggested I do a 3 day cleanse requiring lots of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Over the three days, I probably juiced about 80 lemons and this juicer held up wonderfully. The pulp control feature works well. For simple citrus juicing, it is excellent quality for the price. Totally recommend.
