Purchasing another appliance gives you a problem of storage.  An attachment to your existing appliance is a great idea, its saves you storage space and a whole bundle of money.  With an attachment it transforms your appliance into another appliance.

The KitchenAid JE Citrus Juicer Stand Mixer Attachment is a part that you attach on to your KitchenAid stand mixer.  This juicer is ideal for extracting juice from all citrus fruits.  Its simple and easy design makes it easy to clean.  So with snap to put the juicer in place, you have another use for your KitchenAid stand mixer and some dollars saved.

Advantages

The KitchenAid JE Citrus Juicer Stand Mixer Attachment attachment turns your KitchenAid stand mixer into a citrus juicer.  Not only does it save you from spending on another appliance, but it also saves you kitchen and countertop space.  This juicer does what it’s supposed to do:  extract more juice compared to that of a manual user.

Disadvantages

Though the KitchenAid JE Citrus Juicer Stand Mixer Attachment does extract more juice than its manual counterpart, it makes a mess when using it.  Its open design, allows the juice to splash.  It also takes a long time and if one is not careful; your hand will slip into the squeezer.

The built-in strainer does not work as well as it was advertised.  Sometimes pulp gets into the container with the juice.  To get the pulp out you have to strain the juice again.

Conclusion

I would recommend this KitchenAid JE Citrus Juicer Stand Mixer Attachment if you have an existing KitchenAid stand mixer after all it still does it job—it extracts more juice at a less time and effort compared to the manual juicer.  You also get to save on space in the kitchen and save on money.

However, it has more advantages than its disadvantages.  For me, less fuss and less mess is what I look for.  Also, I don’t like straining the juice again to get the pulp out, not only does it takes time it also adds to the utensils I’m going to clean afterwards.

Also, compared to other juicer appliances it takes a longer time to extract the juice.  The absence of a guard on the front face of the juicer makes the juice splash on to the counter.  This juicer also does not work quite well with large size citrus.  The squeezer is so small that it is only good for small size oranges or lemon or lime.

For someone who starts her or his day with a freshly squeezed juice before going off to work, I would not recommend this juicer attachment.  It’s slow, messy, and you have to strain again to get your pulp free juice.

You are better off buying a separate juicer like the Jack Lalanne Power Juicer Pro.
