Wasn't juicero this heavily overengineered juice dispenser for rich weirdos?

You mean the juice packets that could just be squeezed by a person to get the liquid out without requiring a countertop hydraulic press?

Actually it was underengineered. It was underbuilt in places where it mattered and overbuilt where it didn't matter, using completely unnecessarily expensive materials and manufacturing processes and completely inefficient design.

It was like it was designed by an engineer who was fresh out of school with no understanding of real world cost effectiveness.
