No discussion of the Angel juicer on this forum. Anyone have one, and what do you think of it?

Been looking at a `Greenstar' for a long time, but sinse l put in so much effort to my raw lifestyle by growing all my food, l thought l will treat myself and go with the best l can get my hands on. l feel the Angel is even better than the Greenstar, but that is just an impression l get from the very limited stuff l have read online. l really like the look of the Angel juicer, where-as the Greenstar looks cheap (all plastic) in comparison.

Here's the Angel juicer:

l could have got the `Norwalk juicer', but that is ugly (looks like a coiffee machine from a cafe') and way out of my price range. Anyone got a Norwalk'? ls it really worth the price? ls it a better juicer than the Angel or Greenstar?

l notice all the juicers and blenders are always around half the price (or less) than they are in Australia. That greatly disappoints me.

l picked up another manual wheatgrass jucer today for a spare. You never know if the power grid is going to go down and for how long. Best to be prepared in case l need to roam the countryside living off juiced grass and weeds and ground up seeds and roots.

There is one thread actually

Again, this juicer seem fine.

I own a green star, since i know you are strong with wheat grass and greens, this juicer would be quite perfect for you.


It isn't great for tomato and soft fruits but you don't seem to care for it anyway.

I would consider the green star if i was you because it is more economical and quite durable.

Anyway, this is you.

All be best!

John Kohler gives a poor review of the Angel juicer because of their business practises, but there are many favourable comments made toward the juicer below the video. Another problem is the design fault where it is easy to tip over. Hopefully the juicer lasts the distance.

Given the impressive reviews of the Norwalk juicer (finest juicer extracter known to man and it's extreme durablity are big selling points for me), l think l will save up for one of these and get one in a year or two.

lf you are raw and juices and nut/seed pastes form the majority of your diet, then of course a person is well advised to save up and invest in a really good juicer.

Great review, thank you for sharing.

Hoping you get your juicer much and much sooner.


I truly love my green star and i wouldn't trade it with another twin gear. I had to use another juicer for the soft fruit but this is the only downside beside being large and heavy. I find it quite easy to clean now because of the way i do it but at first, it was challenging.

Any way all the best!

l used my juicer tonight to do chia greens and sunflower greens. l didn't even need the poker to push the food down, it just sucked the sprouts down effortlessly and made great juice. lt is one of the best things l have ever bought, and l can't wait to do some more juicing tomorrow. l am going to start growing more green sprouts (alfalfa, fenugreek, broccoli, sunflower greens, wheatgrass, buckwheat, pea greens, chia greens) so l can get about 750 - 900ml of green sprout juice a day...that will be almost half a bucket of green sprouts a day. l shouldn't over alkalize because l will be having a decent amount of sea vegetables and about 15 - 20 sprouted walnuts/chestnuts each day. These are very exciting times.

Dr Brain Clement recommends taking a 12oz green juice in the morning and a 12 oz green juice at night. So 24 Oz a day, therefore 720 ml (quart and a half). + also take 2 oz of wheatgrass juice in the morning and 2 oz in the evening.
