The stainless steel basket on the Oster 3165 I use is difficult to remove. Anyone know how I can lift this out to clean it? The juicer works fine. I just used it, but the basket is tough to remove. I've tried turntable-ing it, but still it won't lift out.

2 I really don't know why your baskets are stuck. UNLESS the spinning carved a small slot in the plastic underpinnings. If so you should try to disengage the basket from that oval rectangle plastic shaft. The shaft has to be immobile while you turn the basket counter clockwise.

0 I am having exactly the same problem and have to wrestle with the basket each time to clean - I turn the whole thing upside down and pull the basket whilst twisting - it comes out eventually bet very messy and I know I will eventually break it by using such force!!!
