great buy Aug 14, 2010 I bought this juicer probably 4 years ago and I still love it. The price is a little higher, but TOTALLY worth it!
Pretty Good Deal Aug 04, 2010 I purchased this for my wife who really likes smoothies and the such and thought she'd like a juicer. I researched what was out there and decided on this one because of price, company reputation and the reviews. I agree that a toothbrush is probably the way to go for cleaning the extractor/blade. The brush supplied works but it is small. It works exceptionally well for the price and gets used almost daily. The other reviewers are right about leafy items. They tend to be hard to juice unless harder items are added with or right after. Other than that I believe this to be a good product for the money. If it holds up over time I'd say an excellent deal.

Noisy Jul 30, 2010 Well it's at a very low price which is good but is offset by it's negative points. After using it for a couple of times I no longer want to use it because of noise and also because it wastes some juice. So that means I bought something I can't use, -1 for me.
TERRIBLE product Jul 28, 2010 This juicer is poorly made, pure and simple. The pulp container is difficult to put on and take off. The lid to the pulp container does not secure completely and juice leaks down the sides. Most importantly, the juicer is started by a tiny, fragile safety knob located on the bottom of the pulp container. When this tiny, fragile part snaps off, as it inevitably will when you're fighting to disassemble the thing, the juicer will not start, and a replacement pulp container will run you a whopping $25. Do yourself a favor and go with a juicer that doesn't have a locking pulp container like this one and stay away from Waring products whenever possible.

My Waring Juicing Machine Review Jul 12, 2010 After washing it, I tried it out for the first time. I like it. I hated the carrot juice, but I like the machine. It took about 16 minutes to clean --the strainer basket with the attached shredder took about 5 minutes of those minutes to scrub (yes scrub) clean. I made a carrot and apple juice mix. Yuck!!!
Update:
I really like the machine. I like the idea that I can get a good dose of vegetables on a daily basis (something I haven't really been doing). I also like that the machine is relatively quiet. The blender is much, much noisier. The cleanup of the juicer is fairly easy. I originally timed the cleanup of the juice at about 16 minutes. Today, the time was closer to 12 minutes. Half of the time cleaning comes from cleaning the shredding/strainer disk. The cheap brush provided really isn't doing the greatest job. I'll probably have to use a toothbrush to clean the shredding/straining disk.
Oh, I noticed that the juicer really should be clean soon after using. Today, I wanted to go to the store. I did leave the shredding/straining disk soaking, but leaving the machine with the pulp in caused condensation of the pulp juice into the area under the pulp-collection basket and spinner (not the easiest place to clean if you get food or juice there). I think the juicer is fairly easy to clean if you don't let the food sit in it too long. I can see it becoming a nightmare to clean if the food hardens and dries out.
I forgot to mention in my previous entry that the fruit and/or vegetables need to be dry before using the juicing machine. At first, I washed the vegetables right before putting them in the machine, this just produced extra moisture in the pulp. The excess water on the f/v seems to add to the pulp, but not the juice. Another (minor) problem is that if the food going in is wet, it causes the food pusher to not slide down easily; I think I've solved that by rubbing cooking oil on the push.
