Acme 5001 Supreme
Juicerator Juicer Review

Its design is pretty ordinary, nothing fancy. As in most centrifugals in this range, its housing is plastic (polycarbonate) with stainless steel strainer basket and blades.
 

Advantages:

• Quality build:  This machine is a product of Waring, the maker of quality commercial-kitchen appliances so the product quality can be trusted.  This model has been in the market many years but has stood the test of time and is still going strong.
   

• Heavy:  At about 13lbs (~6kg), this juicer is rather heavy for a centrifugal juicer.  It can be an advantage as it reduces the juicer from "walking" and vibration-free while in operation.  But can be a disadvantage if you like your juicer to be portable.
   

• Citrus attachment:  This model comes with an optional citrus attachment (retailing at ~$60) which is an innovative feature.  When attached, the machine can be reduced to a low 300 RPM when juicing only citrus fruits.  This is useful if you like to make citrus juices and it does the work well by squeezing them really dry.
   

• Juice yield: For a centrifugal juicer, this Acme 5001 somehow gives a higher juice yield compared to many other decent brands in the market.

Disadvantages:

• Small chute:  As this is an old model, the chute is rather small, so you'll have to cut up your fruits/vegetables into smaller size to fit the opening.
   

• Small spout:  A small spout also makes juices being expelled a little slower.
   

• Noisy:  It is a high-speed spinning juicer so is naturally loud.
    

• Juicing vegetables:  It can do big chunky vegetables like celery or cucumber, but doesn't get much juice out of leafy vegetables.
   

• Cleaning:  Due to its "closed-in" design, the juicer is a little bit difficult to clean so washing up takes time.  Something to seriously consider when looking to buy a juicer.
   

• Pricey:  At just a little under $200, I do think this machine is rather expensive, but then again it's a quality Waring product.  Consider investing a little more to get a gear juicer that is easy to operate and one that preserves the enzymes and nutrients.
