yes, think of how you would open a can of paint, I use the end of a spoon and gently go around in between and it shown pop right out.hope this helps!

I am right-handed, so I hold the left side of the strainer with my left hand on the rim.... then take a butter knife and place it under the lip of the strainer and pry gently up using the rim of the plastic tub as a see-saw...it is snug and just needs a little help because there is a rubber seal on the strainer seat.

Just lift with your fingers just under the edge on opposite sides. It has to be on opposite sides, or it won't come out.

Put your fingers around the lip of the strainer on the opposite sides. Gently twist and pull up at the same time. I hope that will help.

I have this problem but I'm afraid I haven't used the grater as of yet. As far as the other pieces go I have had no issues with it moving while in use.

you don't want to rinse it out inside, use a pail or something, I cleaned up outside, it takes alot of water to clean properly. It needs to be disassembled and cleaned properly before putting away

Mine has a drawer that pulls out and I just rinse it out with warm water. Then insert it back in machine. I don't see any other way to clean it.

Press down on the Release button and then pull off. It is a bit rough at 1st but you will get it. Also, it helps if you hold opposite diagonal corners to pull off the lid.

Hello. I have the same problem but it's a basic juicer not a fancy/expensive one that juices everything.

I first rinse and scrub with the brush that came with my juicer starting on the outside first, and then I scrub the inside. Then I add a dab of dish soap now with the water turned off, and scrub again starting on the outside, making sure to get my bristles up under the lip of the filter's edge ( I have noticed a lot of stuff mostly greens get caught up under there) and make my way to the inside. After I am sure I haven't missed a spot I rinse with hot water and then I hold up the filter to a light source and verify that it is completely clean. I have heard that if you have clogs in the mesh to let it soak in lemon water for awhile and then clean as you usually do. I admit that this is my second filter. I too use my juicer daily the first filter I had I didn't clean as thoroughly as I should have and ended up having to buy a new one. Now I treat it as if it were the most important part of my juicer and it is remaining clean after 6 months of avid use! I hope this helps you! Juice on!! and God bless!

I usually rinse it through hot water and turning on the frother part. If you have not done it after every single usage, you might want to soak the frother part and let all the gunk soften first.

No cleaning problems. Each piece is separate and it is super easy to clean. It is a great juicer.

hold your filter with a cloth. then push in and turn. this should rrelease it and then you can pullout the filterwe used the juicer this year for the first time and it all went smooth.

The way i do it is to take off the bottom portion by pushing the white washer up through the middle hole and pull it out. There will be a hole exposed. Then I use one of my keys to stick through the hole and push the strainer up.

I did receive an email from someone at Amazon with a phone # for the place 866-772-8522 I called them this morning and he said he would get my info to his supervisor and mail a copy of the instructions but I forgot to ask for the recipe book so I called them back and found out this is the wrong #. This place handles the Big Boss Blender not the juicer so they can't help me. I really want to keep the product but I can't figure out how to take it apart etc. I still need help trying to get intouch with them. I see you sent a request do you think I should do that also?

No, I do not consider it hard to clean. It is just that this is a large juicer, it juices extremely fast and very efficiently and because it is large, the parts to clean are large, making it bulky to clean, but not difficult and not time-consuming. You could probably easily juice 10 eight-ounce glasses of juice in this juicer in a matter of a few minutes. I do recommend that you keep the little black plastic chute on the stainless steel spout. If not, it's powerful enough that when the juice comes out - it will splatter all over you. That little chute directs the juice downward into your glass and away from YOU.

I always let it soak in warm soapy water. You can use powdered stainless steel cleaner. Works great. Mine looks like new and I use it often. Hope this helps.

Don- I bought the same slicer and you need to remove the blade to properly clean. Remove the lock nut for the center plate and remove, remove the sharpener, remove the 3 screws that hold the blade and the blade will come out. That make cleaning much easier. My cleaning ti,mes have gone from 30 minutes down to about 10. Use a anti bacterial whip after all the debris has been removed. do a final wipe down with a clean towel and dry when you are complete and re-assemble

Mine has started doing the same thing, only it worked really well for a few months. I think it's because I wiped the inner circle on the bottom, which the instructions say not to do. I did it lightly, because I want it clean, but apparently, this ruins the unit! VERY frustrating because now I have to buy a new one!
