As much as the comments are amusing, I’ve actually been in the market for one of these! Anyone actually have personal experience with this one? Let me know before my cancel window expires!

@eVil I bought one of these on Amazon a year or 2 ago. Works well, does a nice enough job with the juice, not as fancy as some of the 200+ buck juicers, but seriously, it’s 36 bucks… bottom line… good value for the buck and the juice is pretty good. Cleaning up is a pain though so plan ahead and juice in bulk LOL
@alternatetheory Just the kind of comments I was hoping for. Agreed, it’s hard to beat the price assuming it doesn’t self destruct on first use. I do intend to use it for ginger, so I suspect that will be about the worst use case given how fibrous and dense it is. We will see! Thanks!
Wow, this new fangled gizmo has everythang. Those new metrik numbers, a toothbrush for after you masticate (well, that’s wut it says) the stuff, one of those highfalutin metal straners, and even a stick for pleasure cept this’un dodn’t shake.
If you must have a machine do your chewing for you, you’re much better off using a blender to make stuff like smoothies. All that gunk that’s collected by the juicer is the fiber that feeds your microbiome & keeps you regular, etc. You shouldn’t mess with mother nature!
@er1c@Perfect_Timing, Why do ya think that guy has all them batteries in his fn fridge,…Hee, Hee, Hee,…he doesn’t wanna run out while he’s masticating & vibrating!
@audiocontr it’s the juicers that go as fast as blenders that we must be weary of! Fast juicers scare away the precious fiber. Slow juicers are less indimitating, so some fiber decides to stay.
we need more stupid controversies like that, don’t we? C’mon! A company building a 700-dollar piece of machinery to squeeze little bags? That’s so funny! And such a great palate cleanser to all the actual terrible shit that is happening constantly.
Sadly, the similar scam that comes to Theranos, who made much more expensive blood testing machines that didn’t actually do anything (they were supposed to do way more tests with way less blood, but never even came close). Elizabeth Holmes is a great saleswoman, she could have sold the Juicero and made a fuckload of money on it, while doing way, way less damage than she did.
Are you kidding me! I bought this same juicer about two weeks ago for probably about twice this. I love it. I’ve had the “fast” juicer Before, I like this better. Really seems to get out more juice and supposedly it’s better for you. Instructions are English as she is spoke, but I’ve got it figured out and the thing works well and cleans up pretty easily
I don’t have this, but I’d say anyone wanting to “try” the slow masticating juicer thing should try this, at this price. I have one (actually two) of the Korean brand that is known for these, and they are very good. But they will usually cost $200-300. Sometimes a deal for $179 I think. So for this price, yes, it’s smaller and mostly plastic, but looks like it would do the job and show you what the juicing idea can do.
Main thing on any of these is that you will have to cut up things fairly small to get in the chute. Like larger carrots might have to be split, apples will have to be cut into small chunks, etc. Celery should go in fine. You can stuff the chute with greens or wheat grass and push it in to the feed. Looking at the pictures and reviews I think this would do the job.
Yes main thing is that afterwards there is some cleanup on any of this style. So as some said, maybe juice for an extra day or two and store it in the fridge.
If I didn’t have the “good one” I’d be in on this deal just to play with it.
EDIT: also wanted to add that for people saying “just use a blender” instead, the main thing that those can’t do well is things like wheat grass or finer greens. For those items you really want to separate out the stringy “fiber” and press them to get the ‘green juice’ out of them.

Two days in a row of items that make juice!
@yakkoTDI well played.
@yakkoTDI, Yeah
@yakkoTDI Yeah I used to make juice, but now that I’ve ED, I don’t even masticate!
@yakkoTDI
@1DisabledWarVet Then in this case ED must mean “Eating Disorder.”
@yakkoTDI
Masticating…
Yesterday it was masturbating. Today it’s masticating. There’s a lesson to be learned in here, somewhere…
@shahnm Ah! You “beat me” to it!
@shahnm Just a mis-spelling to see if anyone caught it.
@Felton10 Hopefully no one mistakes these devices and their intended uses…
@mehvid1 @shahnm, He Beat Sompin!!
@shahnm I came just for this comment.
@choral_music You still have to clean it up.
@choral_music @werehatrack Yeah your mom says she’s not going to clean it up for you anymore.
That looks like it goes with what you sold yesterday.
If this is the men’s toy, meh has no love for us. I think this might hurt you!
@Kyser_Soze, Who is the guy who said he’d try Annnything once!!
After yesterday’s deal, I initially misread ‘masticating’…
Chopped up smeckle?
Could you please explain why one needs a residue container after one masticates.
@Felton10 To contain the residue.
You’re welcome.
after yesterday’s stuff, I get the feelin’ somebody needs a dictionary.
The write up reminds me of AvE’s video of the Juicero teardown. One of the funniest videos I have seen and the reason I subscribed to his channel.
@cengland0 i unsubscribed when he started making comments trivializing people’s concerns about COVID lol.
@cengland0 @er1c Thanks for the warning. I won’t even give him his youtube click-pennies then. Is he one of the 1 million that died…?
@cengland0 @er1c @pmarin He made a video cheering on the right wing truck convoy that occupied ottowa. He’s alt-right and basically kept his channel alt-litr.

/giphy don’t mess with mother nature
Yep, close enough, /giphy!
I don’t know, if you’re drinking from aicok, seems like hot would be better.
Boo! More vibrators!
@Perfect_Timing anything is a vibrator if you believe in yourself
@er1c @Perfect_Timing, Why do ya think that guy has all them batteries in his fn fridge,…Hee, Hee, Hee,…he doesn’t wanna run out while he’s masticating & vibrating!
@1DisabledWarVet @er1c @Perfect_Timing There are so many reasons, really…
Masturbators! Not masticators!
@Perfect_Timing Wait, did you say ‘mastabators’? Is this NOT the protest about removing the prehistoric elephant exhibit?
Sometimes I just eat fruit. Maybe even vegetables, too.
I somehow don’t see the advantage of a pre-chewing machine that discards some of the good parts…
@2many2no Exactly! Prebiotics are just as important as probiotics, if not more, but the latter tends to get all the press!
First!
Shoot, I’ve been fast masticating this whole time.
I had no idea blenders lost nutrients in their speedy blending. You have to blend on slow to prevent them nutritional values from being destroyed??
Marketing…
@audiocontr it’s the juicers that go as fast as blenders that we must be weary of! Fast juicers scare away the precious fiber. Slow juicers are less indimitating, so some fiber decides to stay.
Looks like it is good for leafy greens. https://www.techgearlab.com/reviews/kitchen/juicer/aicok-slow-masticating-juicer
Having read the whole review, overall they like it a lot. At this price, it’s a great deal. If I didn’t already have a juicer, I’d be in.
A. I. COK? Is this the future of mastication?
The brand name reminds me of James May’s favorite on-camera euphemism, “oh, cock.”
Does it generate spit as it masticates?
“Masticating” bothers me more than it should.
okay, but i need to see pictures of this thing chewing up some fruit
@midnightplatinu The fun starts about 4 minutes in.

You guys suck for making me lose The Game.
