I don&#x27;t see this taking off. Smart people don&#x27;t buy single use appliances. Except for waffle makers. ;)<p>Only the well to do people would consider this (only because it&#x27;s expensive, so it has to be bought), but even then, they&#x27;ll probably stop buying the packets after a short time because they&#x27;d rather go down to the corner juice shop and let someone else squeeze them some expensive juice.

Juicero need to sell only the juice packs, that&#x27;s where their business model is. The machine is probably a loss leader so they can sell the packs. Now we know it&#x27;s useless, so they should move to selling the packs only.
