    Default Juicer or blender? Or dehydrator?

    I want to order one of these things but have not much money and I want to get the most valuable one! So what do people reccomend I save up for? And what make would you reccomend? (For example, I've heard the vitamix and the l'Equip blenders are both good, but is vitamix that much better for the price difference? )


    TIA for any suggestions

    Out of those three I would say a blender would be most helpful. I have a vitamix, and not a ktec so I can't compare the two! But the vitamix works wonderfully!

    Another vitamix vote here! I use mine for green smoothies, banana ice cream, salad dressings, smoothies, etc. It can do anything! It can make raw nut butters although I've never tried this. You won't regret your purchase!

    Oh sorry another question! Which Vitamix blender do you all use? Is it the Vitamix 5000?

    I have a vitamix 3600. It works perfectly. I got made fun of on this board for using it though (so keep it a secret) because it is old. Who cares? I got it for a great price on ebay. It does everything I need!

    vitamix....get the 4500....it is amazing...has brought my rawness to a new level.....the 5000 is more for commercial use...like jamba juice....or starbucks.....i don't see the need for a dehydrator in any case....
