L'Equip 110.5 Review

What the Reviewers Like:
The L'Equip 110.5 has a small footprint and a stainless-steel bowl, which resists staining. Owners say that the build quality is good. This unit is easy to clean and juices quickly, according to reviews. Pulp is relatively dry, indicating efficient juice extraction.

What The Reviewers Don't Like:
A few owners sat the nozzle sprays juice occasionally. Apples and other large fruits and vegetables require chopping before they can be fed through the chute.

L'Equip 110.5 review highlights

Reviews say that the L'Equip 110.5 juicer is a great value in a small juicer. It takes up little counter space but yields more juice than some larger, more expensive models. Owners like the grey plastic housing, which hides stains, and the 6-year warranty. Some say that the L'Equip 110.5 isn't up to the challenge of juicing carrots and beets, however. In this price range, we also found good reviews for the Breville Juice Fountain Compact (*est. $80).

Charles Passy of The Wall Street Journal offers the most credible review we read of the LlEquip 110.5 juicer. When John Kohler of Discountjuicer.com pits the L'Equip 110.5 and the Hamilton Beach Health Smart, the 110.5 emerges the clear victor. We read a couple dozen mostly-positive reviews of this juicer at Amazon and Epinions.

The Best Juicer: Is There One?
John Kohler

At this juicing-enthusiast site, John Kohler recommends centrifugal ejection juicers like the L'Equip 110.5, which he says are fast and easy to use. The L'Equip juicer has a larger bin than some small juicers and a stainless steel bowl that resists staining (most juicers in this price category have plastic bowls that can stain). Kohler pits the L'Equip 110.5 against the Hamilton Beach Health Smart in juicing tests. The L'Equip 110.5 emerges the clear victor, with a longer warranty, better build quality, quieter operation, and greater juice extraction.
