Juicero was ridiculous even if only because the machine was ridiculously overengineered. They should have used two steel rollers, I bet the machine could be made for $20. Instead they made an absurd contraption that crushes the bag between two plates.

Not to mention that even this doesn't require anything fancy. The screw press was invented two thousand years ago by the Romans to make JUICE!

There's a highly entertaining teardown by AvE on youtube of the machine.
