Juicer suggestions?

[Kristi]

I'm thinking of getting a new juicer. I have a cheap old one from Meijers.....I have to cut things up to nothing to fit it the chute. I see Alissa has one called Breville Juice fountain......any thoughts? I can't spend a ton of money. My husband still hasn't gotten over the price of the Vitamix!!!!!

Hi Kristi,
I am also thinking of getting the Breville. I love that you can put whole fruit into it. Kirk also has one and said that he likes it. I believe I am going to get one soon. The cheapest I found was $90. I love my juicer but having to cut stuff up beforehand is a real deteriant from juicing. I guess I am lazy!

I have a juiceman and a champion - I use the juiceman daily because it is lightweight and easy for me to manuever. I use the champion for fruit ice cream and sometimes juicing when my husbnd goes through his moment, I bought that juicer cause YOU wanted it.

I have also seen the Jack LaLane in action, very powerful and efficient. Juiceman and Jack LaLane are less than $200 - like 159 or so. Champion is 239 or so - I think.

Michelle at www.fromsadtoraw.com has a comparrison of two juicers on her website that you may want to use as part of your research.

Hi Sweet Lips
Do you have to cut the fruit up very small in order to juice in your juicers?

Hi Kristi & Rawjojo,

Just thought I'd let you know that the main reason I desided to get the Breville was the size of the chute ( it measures 3 inches across ). I like that feature cause I'm a little on the lazy side too.

I love my Jack LaLanne juicer. I also have a Champion, but hardly use it at all.
