Love my green star. Great
Love my green star. Great for fruits, veggies, making nut milk etc. does greens really well. I have to stand on a stool to juice because I’m short and with carrots you have to push a little harder so need the extra leverage.

Great juicer
The machine itself could’ve been a little smaller.The juice taste delicious you can actually taste the difference in the juice compared to other juicers.

The machine does it's job.
The machine does it's job. It's difficult to push the greens thru at times. I have to press down quite hard. It can clog easily. I'm new with it and so giving it time. Fruit is way too messy. The juice does come out clear and pulp is dry. I wish I had a recipe book to follow. Carrots are a must to push greens thru easier.

Carrot Juice and also Green Juices
I haven't juiced regularly for a couple years. I previously had a Green Power Juicer I bought in 1997 so that was 23 years of use! This model is almost identical so it's familiar and I know how to use it. I like a carrot-celery-apple-ginger drink. I discovered if I cut the celery in 1" pieces, I don't get celery strings wrapped around the twin gears

Best machine, hands down
To say I love this juicer would be an understatement. I'm a physics analyst and engineer and have definitely looked at this design with a critical eye as I've gotten to know it... using 2x/wk for the last four months. I appreciate the durability -- though the twin gear mechanism is sort of cantilevered, it is very structurally sound and withstands all the force I've needed to apply. I appreciate how the design minimizes oxidation of the juice. And I also understand how the twin metal gear/plastic "worm" mechanism creates pressure at the screen to squeeze and filter the juice according to how you set the spring-loaded outlet plug (whatever you call it). This method (as opposed to a centrifuge design) allows for small screen surface area which significantly reduces clean up time. Speaking of clean up, I've noticed that the plastic parts all rinse clean quite well since they are mostly smooth with very few channels or pockets where debris can collect. The plastic parts are also made of a durable dense plastic that's sure to sink into a basin of water for soaking if desired. Anyway, hats off to the engineers for this design. I work in aerospace and defense, and it takes a lot to impress me at this point. ;)

I like the ease of use. So easy to clean. I also like parts are easily available if I should ever need one. I also like that the gears are stainless steel. This is my second one I’ve bought. I gave my first one to my niece.

Update/edit on my review
I mentioned a tip on my review which I've since researched a little better... the oxygen remover for mason jars I mentioned is not as much of a thing for liquids as a vacuum pitcher would be, and even then, 72 hours is pretty much the max you'd want to store juice for. Fresh juices from the store have been pressurized to preserve freshness.
