Jack LaLanne Power Juicer Review

I bought this juicer for an ex-boyfriend & we used it for over two years. It does juice things fairly well. For the low price-tag, you get a pretty good quality product.
(One Tip: If you have a lot of plastic grocery bags, putting one in the pulp bucket before using the juicer makes cleanup a lot easier - you can just pull it out, tie it up & toss it. Then the pulp bucket only needs a gentle rinse to clean up.)
Having used a number of other juices since, I would like to point out some of the issues that this juicer has that ultimately became a turn-off to me (and made me not-so-sad to see the juicer go away with my ex):
- It juices, but it doesn't wring out nearly all the juice - I've found both centrifuge and masticating juicers that wring more juice out.
- Clean-up is a pain in the butt - cleaning all the parts takes a lot of time. You should have a little toothbrush to get all the bits of pulp out of the little crevices.
- Getting the 'blade/grater' part out can be hard. You have to screw & unscrew it with a special tool - it took us a while to figure out how hard we should screw it in, so that it stays put & does the job, but isn't then impossible to get out to clean.
- It stained quickly (and permanently). Not a huge flaw, but still, I don't like having dirty, stained products sitting out on my kitchen counter.
Overall, for the price, it's a worthwhile purchase, especially if you're only an occasional user. If there's any possible way you can spring for something a little pricier (especially if you plan on juicing regularly), I'd highly recommend going that route.

RSVP Modern Espresso Knockout Box Review

You might think "flimsy and undersized" when you see this, but it's actually a very practical knockout box for an ordinary home kitchen. The heavy rubber base is a critical piece that you'd probably overlook in picking up a larger industrial knockout box, and it really is a great sound-deadening part of it. But here's the rub: that rubber sheath around the metal bar begins to come apart after six months or so, and not only ceases to keep you from banging directly on the metal bar, but decomposes into a mass of grimey rubber that partly coats the bar and partly just falls into the box. So whatya do? Take the bar down to your local hardware store and ask for a short length of rubber house to cover it. They'll help you get the right diameter. I bought 3" of handsome blue airhose (heavy rubber under blue rubber with nylon mesh to strengthen it) for $0.35 and it's been a dream.

A knockout box allows the barista to remove spent and compacted coffee grounds from any espress filter by tapping the holder against the center bar. Grounds fall into the holder, which can then be dumped and cleaned in the dishwasher
