I'm ready to buy a juice machine and can't decide which one to buy. I had one of those "Juiceman" juicers about 13 years ago... it was a very decent juicer. But I only hear about Champion L'Equip and Vtech juicers from the raw community. I don't plan on ever juicing my own wheat grass or other greens... any suggestions on which juicer I should get?
Greengirl, if you are juicing mostly fruit get the breville (not that you have to buy it from me but its on my site if you need to see what it is) its awesome!!!
Doing this juice fast we just put really large whole cucumbers through it and whole tomatoes. You dont even have to cut them up the chute is so big. It really makes a difference with time. You just stick them through! No cutting up!
I used a juiceman for years and this is just more powerful and easier.
Thanks Alissa for suggesting this one. I went to your site and saw it. This is one I want with the nice big food chute on it!
No kidding! My juicer works great, and it is fairly easy to clean (bought it in Asia, so brands won't matter here), but the chute is so narrow I have to cut everything really small to fit it in. I know that's by design, because the juicer wouldn't work as well with such big pieces of fruit and veggies, but I sure like the idea of a juicer with a big chute...someday!Quote:

hmmm..Breville--never heard of it up here in Canada. The latest here is the Jack Lalanne juicer. Anybody know of it? Alissa, do you know how it would compare to the Breville?
Thats what the breville is, the jack lalanne. It exact one. I didnt realize it until i called my distributor,. They just put his name on it for his infomercials!
Wow! That's wild. I just saw the infomercial last night and thought....how cool. I wonder how that compares to the Breville Alissa sells.......Now I know! And Alissa's is cheaper with free shipping and Jack has already made enough money in his life so I'll give me business to Alissa. Plus she's helped me more than Jack.Quote:
