Second one to fail
This is our second juicer of this model to fail really quickly. You can hear the motor really struggle right out of the box. It has always left too much seed and pulp in the juice, we always need to run the juice though a sieve after juicing before you can drink it. I am trying my third now because Good Guys do not stock another brand, be warned keep your receipt it will not last the 12 months and like us you just keep going back for a replacement.

Not the worlds toughest, but reasonable at the price.
I bought this unit a few years ago and it has worked fine. Yesterday it stopped working correctly. I opened it up and found that the small plastic drive gear on the motor shaft had stripped. ( I like to know why an item has stopped working) Fortunately I had some suitable replacement plastic cogs available which I had bought on E-Bay some time ago. I was able to fit one on the shaft, reassembled the unit and it is working fine again.
Of course it would be easy to buy a new unit, but it is very satisfying to have made a successful repair.

Best value for money
Today I juiced 15 oranges - it died after 14. Did not even think twice - threw it out and going tomorrow to buy another one. For 20 bucks and after 6 years - it has served its purpose!! Would not even bother buying juicers that cost hundreds and still made in China.

Works for us..
I do about 20 large lemons at a time and find I get ALL the juice, more so than ever out of a manual juicer. This is a machine for batch juicing, not so much for the one or two in which case a manual (we still have a couple of those glass ones..) My son & D.I.L. are vegetarians and they have processed several cases of citrus through theirs in the past month and it shows no sign of faltering. We bought our from The Good Guys as they will exchange a faulty unit almost without question within the warranty period.
The old adage that "if you can't ...Read more
say something good..etc.." doesn't apply here. If you have had a bad experience or think the product doesn't perform as expected, speak up!. As for effort involved here.. Well, nature didn't design citrus to give us mere mortals an easy supply of juice, but if you just lean your weight on the citrus half, just enough to ease the strain of your hands, and wobble the piece a little and use the reverse only if necessary, it's no more difficult (I'm a Senior) than going to bed .;) And, like he said.. $20.. not $200.. !2 month warranty.. good enough for me. Powerful, easy to clean and inexpensive. Nothing.

Best citrus juicer- simple, practical & reliable
I've used this every morning to juice oranges for 4 years and it's been amazing, I have weak hands & this is so easy to use & clean.This week the motor's reverse motion has started to slow so I'm going to pick up another one (understandable after so much use!)- never had so much value in a kitchen appliance I highly recommend it.
Easy to clean, reliable, inexpensive, gets all the pulpy goodness from your citrus

Worse than useless
I used mine for ten minutes then cleaned it up and returned it for a refund. It takes more effort and more time to use than a cheap plastic juicer. The motor runs VERY slow and the thing only squeezes about 80% of the juice from an orange. A cheap plastic juicer gets more, with less effort and four times as quick.
Returning it for a full refund
Slow, bad design, useless

It's the bad products that people need to be warned about.

Terrible item
Kambrook's Citrus X-Press Juicer motor died after a 3 min of work!!!
This is a record! I just started a second half of my orange when it has died! I bought it at Harvey Norman store like a gift for my mam's birthday and birthday was spoiled by this! Stay away from this juicer.

Don't Kambrook have a warranty on their products?
I just checked the Kambrook website. They have a 12 month warranty. Why not make a claim?
Lol yeah it's annoying but no, you don't have to go and buy a new one. Get it replaced or a store credit. It's $20 and made in China. You get what you pay for.

Questions & Answers

I was wondering if the container is glass or plastic now?
I have had a Kambrook for many years and it is still working great but because of the plastic container the acid from the citrus has made it go cloudy and never looks clean
