"Amazing product!" 2010-10-26
By meredith
This juice steamer is awesome! It is beautifully made & will probably last forever! We had no trouble using it. One review that I had read said the water pot was boiling dry but we found that if you get it to boiling then turn the heat down to about medium or medium-high the pot would last the entire batch. We were making grape juice which turned out wonderfully.

The Mehu-Liisa Juicer is easy to use. Works like a charm. I don't have to do anything except to bottle it up!


  
"Love this time and flavor saver." 2010-09-25
By Lor (Mountains)
This is my second year using the Mehu-Liisa steam juicer and I'm STILL so in love with this helper that I just HAD to write about it.

I plant a LOT of tomatoes and can them in sauce, spaghetti sauce, chili, ketchup, etc, etc, etc.... Before my steam juicer I had to boil the tomatoes and then run them through a sieve and then cook them AGAIN to boil of some of the excess liquid and thicken the sauce. This left the tomatoes tasting a little over processed (and sometimes even a little scorched) and took hours and hours to do. With the steam juicer, the excess juice is already removed and when you put the remaining tomatoes through the sieve (I use my kitchen aid mixer attachments) the sauce is perfect just the way it is. No need to process again which leaves a much fresher tasting product. I love my Mehu-Liisa!


"Excellent except for a few personal design issues" 2010-07-19
By Erich R. Lehmann
The Mehu-Liisa is an amazing piece of equipment. It is well-made, strong, durable, and even aesthetically pleasing. It works very well, right out of the package. In fact, as far as I could tell, it has the highest quality of stainless steel available for a steam juicer at 18/10.

However, I think it has two design issues that I personally didn't care for. Some people might not bother with these issues, some might think they are non-issues, and yet some might even see them as an advantages - I just didn't care for them.

First, it's middle section pot (which holds the pasteurized juice) has to fit exactly in the bottom section pot (which holds the water). This is because the spout that pours out the juice (on the middle section pot) is exactly at the bottom side and it hits the top edge of the bottom section pot.

In turn, the two pieces fit together like a puzzle. On the outset, that is good - there are advantages to that; however, my problem is that this enables pulp to mix with your pasteurized juice. Because the spout is right at the bottom, all the pulp that settles on the bottom drains with the juice (some people might like this, but I don't). I'd rather have the spout be slightly higher on the pot, so that the sediment and pulp will nestle below it and not mix with my juice.

Second, the other design issue I don't care for is the size of the water pot on the bottom section. It is too small for my likes. Now don't get me wrong, the Mehu-Liisa did this on purpose because they made up for the smallness of the bottom section pot to increase the size of the juice basket; and it is huge - so in turn you have less space to boil water, and more space for fruit.

Again, there are trade-offs. I'd prefer having a larger pot to boil water in, and a smaller basket for the fruit. This is because I think it is easier to change out the fruit (since it is on top) than to change out the water (since it is on bottom). With a larger pot of water, I change it out less often.

Regardless which model of juice steamer you pick, the Mehu-Lissa is top of the line for quality and will probably last the longest - however, these two design issues I just described - you should at least be aware of, and decide for yourself if they are deal-breakers or not.

  
""You got all that from one bag of oranges?"" 2010-06-14
By Harold Trick (Manhattan, Kansas)
Works great, solid construction and I believe it will last for years. We juiced about five pounds of strawberries and half a bucket of mulberries. It did a great job but all I kept thinking about was a Simpsons episode of the Juice Loosener commercial parody. "You got all that from one bag of oranges?!!!" ([...]) Kidding aside it's worth the investment. If you are going to do juicing this is the juicer!
