ALDI Whole fruit juicer

Seen this at aldi, http://www.aldi.co.uk/, whole fruit juicer looks a great bargain. Anyone got one yet, even comes with a 3yr warranty, so can't be that bad eh!:T

I bought one today so can only give first impressions. I have had a cheapy £10 juicer for several years but it leaked and is very noisy.
All centrifugal juicers are a fiddle to clean so if you are willing to do the fiddly cleaning the Aldi machine seems very good.It is stable and appears very well made- attractive in appearance too but quite a large thing. I made various juices today and the machine performed well. Not as noisy as my cheap one and the 2 speeds are useful. I thought I could put whole oranges in to juice but have found out that you have to peel citrus fruit first (peel tastes bitter).
I want to juice a lot of soft fruit to make seedless jams and think this machine will be ideal for that. Instruction leaflet with machine is useless- no recipe ideas. I think that for the money this Aldi juicer probably competes very well with much more expensive juicers and as it's guaranteed 3 yrs, it's a bargain.

Fad1211, I think that it was an old offer - see date of OP.


must admit I saw the bumped post and was intending to get one too:(

The juicer offer isn't on the website at the moment, but I was in ALDI in Leighton Buzzard today and I'm sure they had a stack there still. Wasn't after one myself, so I'm afraid I didn't notice the price, but if you've got a store nearby it's worth popping in to check...

I bought one last weekend. Read on Hot Deals it is a Delonghi Juicer rebadged by Aldi.
Haven't used it yet but looks the biz and half the price. Got to agree that the instruction book is really bad though !!

I bought this on monday and christened it today.

Its a pain in the !!! to clean. Its huge. i squeezed the pulp afterwards to see if there was much remaining juice and i felt it could have done better. It leaked everywhere and if you dont stick it to your worktop properly it wiggles about like its got a mind of its own.

Just my twopence worth....

It is difficult to clean the foil part. It is exactly the same as one on sale in Argos and also sold under the JML name.
I have been very pleased with mine, got it cheap when Argos slashed the price.

Oh and as regards the wiggling, I find a tea towel or kitchen roll sheet under the juice collecting jug stops it wandering off. I know exactly what you mean!
