I'm looking for a juicer

Who has one, what brand, how do you like it?

1. What do you want to do with it?

We have a champion juicer. It works great! Kinda messy to clean up.
I have another that I think is called a juice lady that seemed less messy, but I have not drug it out lately.

My Vitamix blender is what I use most 'cuz it is easy, but you get more of a smoothie thing than a juice.

5. Been using my Vitamix

Then using a nut bag to separate the pulp. Sometimes I'd rather not do pulp, but it takes what seems about
Five x-tra minutes in the morning to do that, and on 12 hr. days, I'd rather use those precious minutes to
Meditate or do yoga.

Tried the Breville, and wasn't thrilled. Gifted it to a friend who has watched me enjoy health benefits from
Juicing.

As for pulp I often give it to the chickens, but also take some of it to make live food crackers in the
Dehydrator. The last batch included pulp with added shredded onion, red pepper and avocado and flax seed.

I've heard good stuff about the Omega juicers, and Champion, but don't want to make another
Purchasing error.

2. I have a great one, but I found juicing is too expensive and wasteful for us.

put in pounds of vegies and fruits to get a few oz of juice, and there are only so many ways to use the pulp that is left over. Everybody decided they would rather just eat it whole.
I think it's the Jack Lelane juicer, an older model. I hear the new ones incorporate the pulp.. that would be much better imo

3. I have a little Juiceman Jr.....

have had it for years....it works great.

I do prefer using my Blendtek blender, which liquifies fruits and veggies,
because I hate to waste all that wonderful fiber.

4. I have a Breville Juicer

I have the basic model with a pulp container and a plastic pitcher to catch the juice. You can get a more expensive one that is all steel, but this works fine for me. The best juicers are the slow grinding ones, leaving a very dry pulp, but they are the most expensive.

I found mine on Ebay last year for about 150. It does leave some juice in the pulp, but not enough to mess with.

I love it.

6. I worked at a health food store years ago and used a Champion

It was kind of a pain in the neck to break down and clean out every day but it worked beautifully.

A dishwasher would help the cleanout considerably.
