Juicers

As an aside, I bought a new juicer: a Moulinex Juice Machine but unfortunately I was a bit disappoionted. I bought it as I thought it would save time because it automatically pushes out the juiced pulp (whereas with my current antiquated juicer, you have to open it every glass, or so, to scrap out the pulp by hand). Also the basket lifts out by hand for cleaning, where with mine you have to unscrew it and then force it out bit by bit.

Unfortunately the Moulinex has so many pieces, and much bigger pieces (allowing you to process more fruit or vegetables at a time), that I'm not really sure there is any time saving at all:

Moulinex: Pusher (about 20cm long), adapter tube (about 20cm), top with input tube (20cm long) plus pulp extraction channels, blade, basket, base piece, pulp collector.

Old juicer: Pusher (about 10cm long), top with input tube (10cm long), blade, basket.

I also felt after that the Moulinex extracted less juice because it generates a moist (sticky - uck) pulp, whereas the old juicer has a dry pulp. However after closer examination, I think the juice output is about the same (but the Moulinex juice has less air in it).
