just grab a fork and eat the pulp
Yeah but that's for poors
Juicero matches my latest iPhone....And connects to it too!
Btw I just found out about Juiecero's competitor, JUISIR

Same idea, but you can provide your own fruit and veggies. Must be chopped tho
The device Evans spent three years laboring to invent is a $400 WiFi-enabled tabletop machine that squeezes juice ... out of a bag of Juicero-brand juice. It squeezes bags of juice. It is a juice press that squeezes the juice ... out of bags of juice. Bags ... with built-in spouts ... that are filled with juice. Juice that comes in bags.
This is the most oblivious and hypocritical thing I've ever read, almost a work of art. So many gems.
Yeah it really is loll. So many better (and cheaper) options out there, like Jamba Juice. There's one across the street from where I work. I go there 2-3x a week.
I'm genuinely curious if anyone has opened up one of these bags and test out the pre-chopped fruit and veggies. How do they compare to shit you buy from your average local farm? Because some tiiiingling sensation in my brain is saying "not favorably".
Don't worry, you just print out a postage paid sticker and send your bags back to the company for recycling! They thought of everything!I'm not joking. This is seriously what you are supposed to do
Well they've been in a bag for however long so I'd bet good money it doesn't taste as good as just eating like an apple or pineapple or whatever fresh.
Juicero dude "invented" the machine because he got pushed out of his old company and could no longer get his juice. LOL.

So when I saw this week's headlines about hacking and hand-squeezing Produce Packs, I had a one overriding thought: "We know hacking consumer products is nothing new. But how can we better demonstrate the incredible value we know our connected system delivers?"
The value of Juicero is more than a glass of cold-pressed juice. Much more.
The value is in how easy it is for a frazzled dad to do something good for himself while getting the kids ready for school, without having to prep ingredients and clean a juicer.
It's in how the busy professional who needs more greens in her life gets App reminders to press Produce Packs before they expire, so she doesn't waste the hard-earned money she spent on them.
These are just a few examples of the value that the Juicero system offers, and we're just getting started. As I said, this is a long-term vision and we'll encounter bumps in the road, but our team and our investors understand the important problem we're trying to solve, and they're committed to helping us get there.
First, the Press. Our connected Press itself is critical to delivering a consistent, high quality and food safe product because it provides:
The first closed loop food safety system that allows us to remotely disable Produce Packs if there is, for example, a spinach recall. In these scenarios, we're able to protect our consumers in real-time.
Consistent pressing of our Produce Packs calibrated by flavor to deliver the best combination of taste and nutrition every time.
Connected data so we can manage a very tight supply chain, because our product is live, raw produce, and has a limited lifespan of about 8 days.
The sum of the system — the Press, Produce Packs and App — working together is what enables a great experience. However, you won't experience that value by hand-squeezing Produce Packs, which to be clear, contain nothing but fresh, raw, organic chopped produce, not juice. What you will get with hand-squeezed hacks is a mediocre (and maybe very messy) experience that you won't want to repeat once, let alone every day.
I haven't read a single post in this thread, but I'm going to ask the question yet again.
Why not make a company based on selling the package of juice and get rid of the utterly pointless machine? Then later advertise the machine as an alternative to squeezing by hand?

If you want to sell pointless machines, you can't market that their ultimately pointless.
I would suggest reading this thread however, some quality posts in here.

Not so poor- same price: $400.
There are other manual juicers but this one is hydraulic. I don't drink juice anyways- I eat whole fruit.

Such pure bullshit.
This feels like an episode of Silicon Valley.
Every single sentence of that "note from the CEO" is a catastrophe.
"a new way of delivering raw, plant-based nutrition"
Guys. Just eat a goddamn carrot every now and then. It's fine. Stop disrupting chewing.
There's always money in the banana stand.
So this is basically juice as a service. They really should've given you the juicer and tied you into a yearly juice contract though. Then the DRM makes perfect sense, because you can't have people jailbreaking their juicers and pirating fruit....or something.
"Please ensure your juicer is connected to the internet, juicing will not begin until product is authenticated." I wonder if Denuvo's in on this yet.

I really want someone to cut a back open to see what's inside. They claim its contents are chopped up fruits and veggies but if you can squeeze out the same amount of fluid by hand something fishy is going on. My guess is they produce the juice in bulk, fill the bags with it and toss a little of the pulp in to make you feel special.
Silicon Valley writers can literally just summarize this whole thing into a single episode, using the exact same product using the exact same lines ("hand-squeeze hacks"), and it'd be a golden episode. They don't even need to change anything.
Sad to see emulation ruining another industry.
Did I just read a PR spin on juice DRM? Oh my goodness

at that point, just eat some fucking fruit salad
this whole thing is hilarious
Life hack: squeeze the juice pack with your hands.
You wouldn't download a carrot.Sad to see emulation ruining another industry.
