    Question Hippocrates Green Power Juice worth the price?

    I just spent way too much time going cross eyed and know more about juicers then perhaps I want to after reading this:
    http://www.ethicaljuicers.co.uk/juicers_comparison.php



    After all that, which was linked from Hippocrates Green Power Juice site, it would seem that is the best of the best but wonder if paying more for the name?

    I do want to make wheat grass juice and very much want to make own nut butters at the price they are to buy, figure pay this baby off in few years
    I was going to get vita mix for nut butter making but if juicer does it and can do juicing makes sense to get juicer I think.

    In the end - CLEAN UP EASE is most important!!

    Now I just read that the Marathon Juicer is better - rated number 1, altho I wonder who is doing this rating??

    It does talk about ease of clean up which may win me over.

    I feel like I am talking to myself replying to own message!

    I'm not sure how much the Hippocrates one is, but I love my Omega 8005 that I bought for $250 on-line. It does wheatgrass, greens, other veggies and fruits as well as butters. I love it so much, I bought one for my sister for Christmas.

    Alot of good reviews on Omega at epionions online. Think this may be the best for cleaning. Do you find it easy to clean up? The twin gear ones seem to be the worst yet most expensive, so I guess they good for something but personally less time I spend in kitchen the better!

    I know, decisions, decisions, that is why I have So many. The GreenStar also does WHEATGRASS AND BUTTERS. I think any Clean Up can be easy as long as you do it from the beginning thus get in the habit of cleaning it.

    I know I have too much money invested to not clean up after I use it. So I Hope you make the right choice for YOU and ENJOY RAW because RAW RAWks......

    Check out the Oscar Vitalmax too. All of the juicers mentioned so far are designed by the same engineer. The Oscar does wheatgrass and nut butters, is easy to clean, and comes with a 20 year warranty on the motor.

    I use mine daily for juice, butters, general food processing, and ice 'cream'.

    The bonus? All this, and cheaper than the others mentioned. I managed to track one down in the UK from Energise your life at £209. I am assuming you are looking in the UK, as Ethical Juicers are based there.

    I have for sale right now, the Lexen Manual Healthy Juicer for 42.95. You can email me directly if you'd like to purchase something that just does wheatgrass. I have on my counter the Miracle Wheatgrass juicer, that I bought years ago for around $200. I should say my parents bought. :) I love its clean up and is so easy to use. I also have a Champion for other stuff.
    I'd rather juice my grass! :cool:
