Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Krups FSC112 Juice Extractor, BlackCustomer Review: A different take than some reviewers... Summary: 5 Stars
I got mine about a month ago and have been pleasantly surprised by it. Some of the comments on here like "good for folks new to juicing" don't completely stack up, and I don't mean that as against this juicer.
My thoughts:
1. Citrus: it does do it, but I would tell anyone to stick to a citrus juicer for citrus anyway, they really do work better.
2. Pulp: it was not so completely pulp free as some people made it sound in their reviews but it IS very LOW on pulp. I actually find that a good thing because my children often gag on too much pulp from the vegetable matter. It tickles their throats too much.
3. The one that really gets me in the reviews is "will upgrade to something that doesn't waste so much" because this is really a matter of what fruits and veggies you can get and for the cost. There are juicers our there like the VitaMix that pulverize everything into a liquid. Aside from sometimes making some pretty untasty products, there are other reasons not to consume all of the plant fiber. Many books on juicing point to research that much of the junk from herbicides and the like are stored in the fiber of the fruit or vegetable, so that if you are unable to get (or afford) 100% organic produce all the time then perhaps for your juicing you want to stick to something that WILL extract most of the fiber. For me, I have limited organic availability at my current job location, and even when I do I can't always afford it: so I buy organic for what I am going to eat in my salad and then use the other stuff for juicing. Sure, I would love to buy 100% organic but again, it isn't always possible. And that is not from a juicing "newbie" who just doesn't know any better.
The cleaning I found easy enough with the exception of the grinder/mesh section. My dishwasher alone couldnt handle getting the fiber out of it so I had to invest (a small price) in a plastic scrubbing brush to get most of the fiber out while it was still moist. Generally as long as you don't let it sit and dry out the clean up is easy enough. Certainly it cleans up easier than the Braun I used to have and it makes a more palatable juice than my super $300 juicer which doesn't extract pulp -- it does blueberries MUCH better than my includes-all-fiber juicer because the berries foam up too much in that one and produce a fairly unusable product. In my experience so far it has spun out the juice and left the foam in the basket.
