The Samson juicer is an invaluable product to own. It is, by far, the best juicer that I have had the pleasure of owning. We have wanted to buy our own juicer since the days in the 1980's with Jack Lallane and his wife doing an infomercial on television. We looked into them & were very discouraged. The main problem we had found was the cleaning aspect. Both my brother and my uncle owned different models of juicer. Both used them for about a month and then added them to the basement with all the other "too good to be true" items. I had fished my brothers juicer out of his basement to see if I could enjoy the juicer instead of paying for a new one. I, too, shelved it after the first try. The cleaning was not nearly worth having fresh juice. After reading another article in the newspaper about the health benefits of juicing I just had to look into the new updated Samson juicer models. I heard about the Samson juicer and tried it out at a friends house. I was totally impressed! 

The Samson juicer comes with a nice booklet with a few recipes to try out. It also give you a bit of information about how/when & how much juice you should consume to begin with. Drinking fresh juice has several health benefits. Start by drinking smaller quantities for a few weeks before you drink larger quantities. In addition, you should always drink these kind of juices alone & in between meals, having them at room temperature. First you'll need to prepare your fruit and/or vegetables. Just some washing (especially if your leaving the skin on) and cutting is necessary. There is no need to remove the cores or skin on most fruits, although orange skins can be toxic. Cut the fruit into nice medium size chunks, just in 1/2 should be enough. Turn the Samson juicer on and add them one at a time into the feed tube. Use the pusher to get them down into the shredder. 

Keep the pieces of fruit at fairly large sizes. To start cleaning this Samson juicer all you need to do is slightly rotate the lid of the juicer to the left. CAREFULLY take out the Strainer Basket with Shredder Disk. To remove the Pulp Collector just rotate slightly to the left to unlock it. They do not recommend putting your Samson into the dishwasher since it takes literally 3 or 4 minutes to clean, dry & reassemble the juicer. 

Samson juicer leaves very dry pulp behind so I knew I was getting the maximum amount juice from the fruit. I just take a few paper towels and wipe the inside of the pulp collector and it drops very neatly into the garbage. There is no sticky mess to clean out the pulp. The Samson juicer has a very sleek design that should look nice in any kitchen. This comes with a small booklet that leaves you with no questions about the juicer. It covers the basic popular recipes, speaks briefly about fresh juice in general & what to expect. It even has a little bit of ideas how to recycle the pulp.
