 Nice while it lasted November 23, 2008
M. Audet (Clarksburg, MD)
We purchased a unit a couple years ago and it just died...looks like a broken or shredded belt/pulley and the unit no longer spins. I've visited to Vesture site and tried to email their customer service and emails sent to 3 different addresses have bounced back so we are just tossing this junk in the trash.
I'm sure since it is outside the 1 year warranty getting a replacement unit for this obvious design flaw is not going to happen. Seems like another item that barely outlives its warranty period before dying...this is becoming the norm with many products.
We did not even get a chance to wear this unit out. While it was working it seemed to clean things without any problems but you really are "trusting" it is cleaning..how can you tell if fruit/veges are actually clean...I agree with the one reviewer...the odor released does stink and I was wondering if ozone spewing into our house air is safe even with a filter.
We're just going back to hand washing...it served us well for years and hand washing never wears out and is cheap....;-)
Like my review title..good while it lasted..
Peace...
 Wonderful machine October 24, 2008

I've been using this machine for the last year now and love it. Haven't experienced any of the damage to fruits and veggies described in one of the other reviews. Just the peace of mind knowing that my food is clean and safe to eat is worth a lot to me.
How safe is this product? January 2, 2008

Wow, what a disappointment! The product comes fully assembled except for a small mesh bag with charcoal dust in it that needs to be insalled in the lid. Not only did I get the charcoal all over my hands but the thing keeps falling out of the lid as I run the unit! But this isn't the worst part. Over the holidays I had a friend over that is a chemist and I was showing her the unit. To her, the odor that was coming out of the unit just wasn't quite right. She asked if it was okay for her to take into work today and she just called to tell me that the unit was emitting 1,200 times the amount of ozone that is allowed by UL and OSHA!! I may not get the wording right here but I guess the allowable limit is around 50ppb (parts per billion) and according to her equipment this unit pumped out about 62ppm (parts per million) on a consistent basis. Do the math and that is over 1,200 times the allowable limit set by UL and OSHA!! How does a unit like this get carried by reputable retailers? According to my friend, the bag of charcoal on top is there for a reason, that is to break down any excess ozone as it escapes the lid. When you visit the company website they ask you to change this every 10 uses...at a cost of $4.95/baggie. Now there's an extra cost I never knew about when I bought the unit! Unfortunately, this bag of charcoal doesn't seem to be do anything...or at least not enough to get these emissions down to the right level. Mind you, once the process is done and you lift the lid, the stench of this ozone gas is so overpowering I have to always back away first...is this safe for me? What if I had children? Will it effect my pets? What really has me upset now is that I went back to the website to check out the safety procedure to follow and when you go into the MSDS section they have a lab report prepared for DEL and Air Liquide. How do these test results relate to my CuisineClean? I guess I should have looked closer before purchasing but I got mesmerized by the claims and missed some of these smaller details. Oh yeah, and one more thing, fill it with apples as per their instructions and it is unbelievable what you get out...they may be clean but they are cut and bruised all over. I can't see how this would make them last any longer?!
