Amazon.co.uk Review
Healthy fruit and vegetable juices are full of the nutrients that a human body needs, and this juicer gives you a tasty way to get those necessary vitamins. Made specifically for home use, the Juicelady is compact in size (standing about 11 inches high), yet powerful enough to grind a whole fruit or vegetable, including the rind, stems and seeds. Its basket--which contains the blade--is constructed from very fine stainless-steel micromesh that strains the pulp from the juice. The manufacturer has included a multitude of recipes--some familiar and some exotic concoctions--to help you get the best use out of the juicer every day. The juicer contains several parts, but it is easy to take apart and easy to reassemble. --Teresa Simanton, Amazon.com

 This item is dangerous! January 3, 2007
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I purchased a Juice Lady about 3 months ago, having previously owned a lower powered Kenwood juicer. I have only ever used the Russell Hobbs Juice Lady for making orange juice and grapefruit juice, and it was used every other day. On New Years Eve 2006 the blades had just reached maximum speed when the Juice Lady exploded in my face and the cutting blade broke up into 4 sharp pieces of metal with such force that it broke through the protective top cover. The blade parts were thrown about 3 metres and I finished up with facial cuts and cuts to my wrist and hands.
It would appear that the motor is too powerful for the weak construction of the rotating blade, and I believe the excessive centrifugal forces caused the blade to crumple and break open the housing of the unit with explosive forces.
It is also relevant that the machine continued to operate until it was disconnected from the mains. I think there is a dangerous design fault on the Juice Lady.

My first impression of the machine on the display shelf it looked a bit small and wimpy. But it was half the price of other juicers on show so I bought one to try out. Don't judge a book by the cover! Simple to assemble with 5 removable parts. Put the drip tray on top of the main body, pop on the sieve, put on the lid and snap down the clips, place the pulp bin under the rear of the lid and your ready to go.
The motor is quite quiet and won't wake the neighbours first thing. I haven't found anything that slows it down much yet. It can handle veg like parsnips, carrots and beets with ease and extracts a good amount of juice very quickly. The plastic doesn't stain to badly either with veg like carrots or beetroot only leave a slight discolouration on the plastic.
TIP: Line the pulp bin with a carrier bag to save washing up!
It's easy to clean but a small washing up brush is best for the strainer to remove the pulp. The only minor grumble is poking kitchen roll down the side of the plastic sprocket the strainer sits on to clean out small amounts of juice that dribble through.
TIP: Push soft fleshed fruit through with harder ones like a whole carrot on one side of the chute with a stack of strawberries on the other. It does tend to spit out soft stuff quickly.
Overall very good and well worth the money for small juice volumes.
A Great Value Juicer January 25, 2005

I bought this last night from Tesco's (for 25), and got a taxi home, and see it online here for 21.97. Doh. You can tell I'm a pennypincher :)I'm impressed with this, it's powerful, it juices everything effortlessly. Though you can't do bananas, as they apparently clog up the filter, easily mixed with my hand blender though. I'm a novice to juicing, but I think it's a great idea as I love smoothies, and I need a bit of encouragement to eat more fruits and vegetables. The only thing I'm not happy with is the pulp container, which is loose and not clipped onto the machine, and bits tend to stray if you don't keep an eye on it. But for the price it's well worth the money.

I was so impressed with this product what we expected with the name being junior was a small unit may be ideal for one person, the size is ideal for our average kitchen and is perfect for two people. It also has a very power full motor I strongly recommend it.
 A pretty good product December 29, 2004

I am reasonably happy with this product. It does everything it should do, its very easy too use and has a powerful little engine.
The down side is, i find it a bit of a pain to clean and you need quite a lot of fruit/veg to get a reasonable amount of juice out.
This product is perfect if you have loads of time on your hands to clean it, every time you use it and loads of money to buy all the fruit.
