It's just that the stupid masses now have enough money that they don't know what to spend it on. Conventional rich people spend on jachts, houses or other not complete garbage things. These people aren't quite there to spend that kind of money. Either emotionally or realistically. So they get the 'hip' juice press. 'hip' phone/watch. Etc.
I'm wondering what happens next. Maybe these people become cynical about their past purchases and start financing groups to kidnap people and broadcast their version of those TV shows they like so much. The survival shows where a group of moderately attractive people fight for their lives in a brutal environment. Lost, the hunger games, Jurassic world (realistically you just plop down a bunch of pasty dudes and dudettes in a tropical forest) etc.

With Trump in power it might just happen.

It's what happens when silicon-valley marketers get to design a non-silicon-valley product:
IoT is the next big thing, get on board.
Form over function, people want a pretty package instead of a working product.
We can make more money with a short hardware lifespan and proprietary tech.

Every one of these things, from a user experience and an engineering standpoint, are complete anti-features and are detrimental to the product, especially as a culinary tool. Cooks and health people want something reliable and inexpensive. They don't want uni-taskers. Ease-of-use, to them, means versatility and reliability. However, those design philosophies run counter to everything silicon valley stands for, and some schmuck looking at scatter plots isn't going to notice that.

That isnt true. The amount of juice varies per pack. For instance the pomegranite juice only yeilds 3oz and is $8 for a pack. So you're paying $32 for a soda can's amount worth of juice.

This whole thing is 10 times more complex than even buying fruits and making your own juice.

Investors are asking the same thing.

>But after the product’s introduction last year, at least two Juicero investors were taken aback after finding the packs could be squeezed by hand. They also said the machine was much bigger than what Evans had proposed. One of the investors said they were frustrated with how the company didn’t deliver on the original pitch and that their venture firm wouldn’t have met with Evans if he were hawking bags of juice that didn’t require high-priced hardware. Juicero didn’t broadly disclose to investors or employees that packs can be hand squeezed, said four people with knowledge of the matter.

it isnt exactly a lack of imagination. rnd is cool, but you dont get to be wealthy by spending money on cool things.
houses and yachts or whatever that they buy are ways of storing money that dont depreciate due to inflation, are tax doges, or offer other financial benefits. they may be easier to resell secretly, for instance, so you can liquidate them when you need to without prying eyes of banks or governments.

Seems suited to corporations that want a customer facing device. High end places in metro areas that serve a lot of brunch. You're paying for the image and quality control, which would be nice when, if the machine were to down or serve rotten shit, everyone who sees it will give you a 1 star on yelp.

Probably cheaper and more impressive to vapid cunts who frequent these places than hiring some minwage worker to run a blender all day.

Don't know why fags are making a huge stink about this either, commercial kitchen juicers frequently cost $1500+.
>>
>>60017026
>commercial kitchen juicers frequently cost $1500+
But they're actual juicers, that don't just press pre-juiced packets.
Also this Juicero one will end up costing much more than $1500, considering how expensive those packets are.

Consider the running costs on a regular juicer though. You have to buy the fruit and other produce. Your employees are going to spend time cutting the fruit and running the blender. These things aren't free, especially in densely populated places.

Yes there's a premium price but there's also added value in buying the bags.
>>
>>59997463
> $799

Gee I wonder what made them slash the price in half?
>>
>>60017336
At $7 per bag, using only 10 per day, 6 days a week is going to cost $22k in bags only. That's not counting electricity, the pressers themselves (which wil have to be replaced once in a while), and the pay for the employees who operate and mantain them.
For the same amount of juice, doing it with produce will be far cheaper than uning these prepackaged bags, and will also look more "natural", which is appealing to the kind of people into this sort of stuff.

Also you don't want to make customers replace the packets themselves, because that would cancel out all the "just-werks" side of it.

I understand if some business wants it to look hip (maybe have one in a corner of your non-food business, like you'd have a coffee machine or something), but as an actual store selling juice I don't see how the good outweights the bad.

It's not like there's just juice in the package though. The package contains processed fruits and stuff that still needs to be juiced. You just don't need anything special to juice it.
If you look at the manual video you'll see that you need to remove the pulp from the package if you want to send the package in for recycling.

It contains fruit pulp. The tissue has already been broken down before the manufacture of the packet, so there is zero benefit there compared to just buying reasonably old packed juice (it's actually probably worse). The entire point of making fresh juice is the fact that the ingredients are fresh and in one piece and the product is consumed immediately afterwards. If you pulp the ingredients, stuff them in sacks and ship them out to people who will strain the juice from them a week later, it's no different than buying packaged juice, except you have to pay $400 up front and then keep paying out of your ass for the illusion of freshness.

Honest question: Can you just take the QR code off an old pouch and glue/tape it onto a self made pouch to make the device accept it? Sounds like a pretty stupid DRM if so.
>>
>>60029715
I thought she was Katy Perry.

>>60029736
Probably not. The machine just refuses to accept used QR codes. This is a standard principle in medical analyzers where the business model is similar to Juicero's. You just can't insert used reagents, refill them or use expired ones. However, in such case the behavior is more well-founded, that is the patient safety.
>>
>>60029771
So each pouch has a unique code, single use? And true, there is no reason for such behavior except greed, or a broken business model where the manufacturing costs of the devices are subsidized (if that's the correct term, you get the idea) into the costs of the pouches.

As I've said, the codes are unique to each bag, linked to your juicer in their database as soon as they're ordered, and marked as used once the bag has been squeezed.
