will this unit smash carrots for juice and what about alomond for milk....?

No... It works great as a press. I use it to press water out of my herbs. But it won't work on anything that hard.
175918
U probably have to blend or grate those to press but not its not strong or big enuff to do hard produce
175919
I use it for alomond for milk. It work good but you need to go slow or it rip the bag
175920
you will need to grind them up first. It will not do whole ones. But it works really good if will prep the items first. I have used it on berries, apples and other fruits. As long as i grind the apples first, it gets all the juice out.

I bought this for making herbal extracts. Although the dried roots I press can be pretty hard, they've been soaked and am pressing out the liquid. I haven't tried for carrots or nuts, but I'm guessing it's not robust enough for that.

I would be surprised. I have great results using it to press liquid out of herbs when making tinctures. But it is a steady pressure, hand-crank system, and not a juicer.

I haven't tried it on either, however I doubt it. The plate is light weight.

Hi Lisa: We also had an old one that leaked like a sieve, but it was probably 50 years old, so that's what prompted me to buy a different one. This one, I do keep a little bowl on the floor in case it drips.........I have found it'll drip a small amount if I'm making 'V5', and my carrots aren't mushy enough. The strainer probably isn't made for that, but that food mill will go through anything. So, in answer to your question, I would say 'yes', but only a matter of a few drops........NOTHING like my previous mill, where most of the juice was on the floor. Hope this helps!

This is still a blender as opposed to a juicer. You would still have to add water to help with the blending process, but overall you would likely end up with carrot juice-albeit diluted a bit by the water. I consistently use the 3HP to make smoothies that are pretty much all liquid.

I've never tried that. I see that someone else has done that and responded to you.I love it for juicing, especially because the vegetables go in so easily, usually without using the pusher. On my other juicer with a large opening, the carrots would bouncearound on the blade and they were hard to control. It would take a lot of effort topush them in. This one makes it so easy. The only improvement that I would makeis to design it so that it's easier to take off and put on the top part before and after cleaning.

Most definitely! I have juiced about everything in this juicer. It does a particularly great job on greens compared to centrifugal juicers, but it will pulverize the juice out of just about everything.

This unit thoroughly pulverizes everything I put in it. I never put carrots in nor have I ever tried to blend them to juice, but I can not imagine in not doing so.

Yes it will juice greens if you add water. If you over load it the motor will burn and stop

Hi Barry. This juicer has worked amazing for me. I do peal citrus bc it would make the juice bitter so I don't have experience with that. I also peal watermelon and cantaloupe. I do not have to peal apples, carrots, kiwi, beets, and other fruits and vegetables. It even takes out all the seeds from strawberries which is great. Hope that helps.

I had one. Hated it. Did a terrible job juicing even basic things like carrots or apples. You had to practically dice everything to get it in. I got rid of mine after two weeks and got a Jack Lalane power juicer. Works great. But it's not made for leafy things like kale or wheatgrass.

Yes the blender is very powerful. I cut the carrots into chunks. Make sure to add some water and place the softest ingredients at the bottom and the hardest on top. This blender is better than the Nutribullet.

I don't think so, this is for extracting juice from fruits and vegetables, you might want a mini-blender or regular blender for that.

Yes it does. I have used it for recipes that call for romaine or iceberg lettuce as well. All have been juiced successfully. This is a fantastic device! I am discovering it's just a matter of finding what I like juiced as far as taste goes but all my juicing attempts have gone well.

I think it does a good job except with small raspberries.... But I also recommend using the pulp in cooking meat dishes like meat loaf or stuffed chicken breast etc. that way there is no waste period. I also recommend adding great flavored like freshineple to all my juices...I blend carrots and kale and pineapple and apples together frequently. The most powerful juicer I think is the ninja....but it I not quiet like the fusion....the fusion is also easy and quick to clean. :)

Yes! I use it everyday to blend green veggies, fruits, everything. It even does a AMAZING job on ice. Turns it into snow like consistency. This little machine has SO much power and provides a pretty smooth consistency to your juices. I used to have a Nutribullet and it sucked - after a couple months, the Nutribullet just seemed to get weaker and everything was chunky :/

I think you should send a request, too. I also asked if the manual and booklet were posted online somewhere - that would be faster than mail. I was able to juice some carrots, celery, cucumber, and romaine but don't know how to disassemble to clean. Very aggravating.

I haven't used it for carrots as yet...only coconuts but it grates them really really fine...so carrots will be a breeze......there are only two attachments though...I recommend that immediately after every use u take the attachment of and clean it...otherwise than that it is an excellent product

Yes, I have this blender for more then a year now, I use it everyday for my morning drink. including beets, carrot, apple or more...I like it so far, pretty powerful. only some problem in the beginning with the switches and I sent it in and they fixed it. still working great so far. (it can blend nuts too).
