Yes, that was part of the problem, thanks to said overenginnering they cost many time more to make then they were worth

@Prometheus labs CEO  
The thing was incredibly overengineered though

@PaintEdits  
Technically they did advertise it as a juicer, and call it such. Suprisingly enough the juicero’s are actually very well made with custom parts and top of the line equipment, the problem is that they do NOTHING. It’d be like if someone made one of those machines where all it does is turn itself off out of pure platinum

@Prometheus labs CEO  
Not a juicer. It’s a juicero. If I had to guess, it’s some flimsy justification where they can hide behind the fact that they have no relation despite being insanely close in spelling using noncommittal lawyer doublespeak.
 
Google poured 120 million into this, I’m sure they covered their bases, all bases except the functionality/practicality of this product.

@PaintEdits  
Exactly, how can they call that a juicer and not get sued for false advertising

@Prometheus labs CEO  
Main thing as someone who juiced is cleaning the damn thing every time (at least for me) was very cumbersome. When I first saw it I figured the bag was filled with solid fruits and the juicero as the name implied juiced said contents (I mean that’s the only way I could see the price being remotely justified / it can’t just be a squeezer that REQUIRES wifi to compress). Then I saw someone just squeeze the juicero bags and produce the same result and was glad I would’ve never shelled out for one of those in the first place.

How had I not seen this.  
Btw thanks AvE

It isn’t even a juicer, it’s just a squeezing machine to dispense those stupid packets, why do that when you could make fresh juice using an ACTUAL juicer. How high where the creators of that thing to ever think it was a good idea. A better idea would be a real juicer that can chemically sample the resulting juice in order to tell you it’s nutritional information

@PaintEdits  
Yes

The Juicero?

I think you may be skirting the edge of what is and is not sfw, good sir…

@Alex Vostox  
Well, the thing is that the machine itself is exceptionally well made, as was mentioned in the video I linked earlier. Hell, the parts it’s made out of pretty much cost more than what they’re selling the machine for.
 
The thing is that you have to use the specially licensed packets for it to work at all, and they’re only available by subscription and that’s insanely expensive. All in all it’s less of a scam and more of a cleverly sold product that you don’t need.
 
It’s like a pet rock, it does exactly what is advertised and it does it well, but it doesn’t do anything that you would ever need it to do so you’re basically throwing away money buying it. Meanwhile saying it was a scam would be implying that it’s somehow false advertising, and besides any proported health benefits they may claim that the juice itself offers it’s really not.

Juicero is nothing but a scam is you ask me…

Too dangerous? Jokes on you, my dick is already diamonds.

@I Was Never Here  
Ditto
 
The world would be a better place if more people knew about the dirty secrets that hide in their choochers

@R-G  
I feel sorry for people who don’t know the magic of BOLTR. I’m not even into that kind of stuff normally and it’s still fascinating.

@I Was Never Here  
And I thought I was the only one who would think of/relate to that
 
Still want to buy one of them, just to take it a-part for the cool guts and bits inside

Really putting the “ero” in “juicero.”

Juiceropone looks sad. Does she, perhaps, understand her place in the great scheme of things?
 
“What is my purpose?”  
“You pass butter.”  
“Oh my God.”  
“Yeah, welcome to the party, pal.”

You’ve done God’s work.
 
Or would it be Celestia’s work in this case?

INGLORIOUS

I’m not certain I want anything that could be described as butt juice.

Oh an overpriced and ultimately useless robo-pony.

Don’t ask her to hotdog your dick, it will only end in tragedy.
