Although I have only used it to juice my apples this fall I do plan on using it for other fruits and vegetables. The instruction manual which comes with it does list tomatoes as one of the vegetables for juicing as well as many other fruits and veggies.

I have not used it to juice tomatoes and my concern is whether the tomato seeds are so small they will fit through the holes and compromise the quality of the product. Why don't you just steam a batch and see if you get what you want. Good luck. It is an amazing piece of equipment.

Yes this juicer will juice tomatoes. It also comes with a book that has everything it juices and how long it should steam for. Its a great steamer we have used are's a lot. Its a good buy.

I juice my tomatoes with it before milling them for tomato sauce to reduce my boiling time. The juice is clearer than you may be used to but still has good flavor.

You can use it to juice just about anything I'd guess. I have juiced carrots, pears, apples, oranges, spinach, etc. I've never juiced potatoes but I imagine it'd do a good job on them.

Honestly, I would recommend the OXO reamer for that. It's amazing, so thorough and easy to use. The Amco squeezers are awkward, slippery, and difficult to use. I found it most useful for juicing pomegranates, but that's about it.

I wouldn't recommend it unless you want liquid salsa. It is great for tomato juice and a

Haven't tried to juice with it...Can't see it actually reducing hard veggies and fruits to juice. More than likely you'd get mush. However if you need advice for a juicer I own an Angel juicer and it woks wonders.

I've done carrots and it's not a problem at all. As Little Lolo already mentioned, it won't be a juice. It'll be more like a smoothie since you'll have small little pulp remnants. You could use a cheese cloth to strain the juice from the pulp, if you so desire. Although, nutritionally, it's best to retain the pulp for any fruit/veggie you blend in the Blendtec.

I'm sorry, do not know the answer to that. I don't use it that way, only for my smoothies, fruits and spinach or kale and whatever I toss in. But I do not use it as a juicer.

I have successfully used it with sliced apples, pineapple chunks, orange slices, frozen or fresh berries and bananas - I almost always add milk, OJ or water, yogurt and ice. It blends all of that quite well. It is not a juice extractor and does not remove pulp. I have not used it with any vegetables.

Yes. Do some research to find out how much juice it yields. There are videos on youtube comparing multiple juicers

I made spinach juice with mine. I would think it would work just as well for any green leafy veggie.

I've juiced greens, apples, grapes, melons (honeydew and cantaloupe, maybe watermelon), citrus, beets, sweet potatoes, jalapeno peppers (for a sauce), radishes, ginger, various herbs, etc. It does really well with all of that stuff, but with juicier stuff like melons and grapes you do tend to lose a little more liquid. I usually feed the pulp through the chute one more time if it feels wet. I've found that starting with something dryer like greens or carrots makes the juicier stuff juice a little cleaner. In any event, I highly recommend this item :-)

Yes. I juiced broccoli, cauliflower, beets, kale, jicama, apples, berries, swiss chard, romaine, lemon, grapefruit, mint, parsley and more. The only thing that would not juice was artichoke, but I was probably doing it wrong. As long as you cut the veggies small enough to fir in the feeder, this juicer can do pretty much anything. I was shocked by how well it worked! Good luck.

I'd like to know if you can also make a V8 Type of juice using Tomatoes and Celery? Anyone know if you can use it with these vegetables?

I went out and purchased salad seeds from a local store and used the growing medium supplied in the kit called "Grow Anything" and am having tremendous success. So choose the salad you like and grow it. I have not tried tomatoes but might in the future.

Yes this juicer does great with all kinds of fruits and veggies. We have had its for over 4 years now and have daily put everything in it from strawberries and watermelon to celery, cucumbers, kale and spinach. I have even made almonds milk with it. It juices carrots, sweet potatoes and bets with ease. I only suggest that if you do root veggies to cut them up thin to save wear and tear on the motor.

Being more fragile than citrus fruit I don't know if this would work well unless you were very careful. If the tomatoes are real ripe and don't need pulling or cutting off the vine, then yes. If you need to pull them (as you often do with citrus, then you will damage the plant, as it has no snipping ability. You would have to do it carefully. There is a foam piece on the bottom of the picker to soften the blow when the fruit falls (nice addition especially for softer fruit). The pulling on the plant is what I would be most concerned about. For citrus, I love mine!
