Juicer

[Shaf]

My wife and I love to drink fresh carrot juice, but paying $6 for each large cup is getting to be too expensive.

Can any one recommend a good juicer?

Thanks!

it all works the same, depending on how much you want to spend.

I think my mom got one thats call power juicer? not sure but it gives 30% more juice or something

My dad bought one a year ago and it's a pain in the ass. You have to buy an assortment of fruits, juice it yourself, and then clean the juicer. I'd rather pay the $6 at a juice place.

I still have the original Juiceman from back in 1993. Get one with a heavy duty motor, you will have to spend over $100 for a half decent unit. Jack La Lanne's (spelling) is a decent one too. Get one with a stainless still blade and assembly. Cleaning is rarely a breeze, it's just the price you have to pay.

Don't drink a lot of carrot juice as your skin can turn orangy and this means it's affecting your liver. Moderation is the key.

mines been in the storage cupboard for a couple of years... cleaning really is a pain.

we've got a braun, works really good. its the second one we've had. the first we gave away to a friend because it never got used, same reason, hated to clean it. then a few years later hubby needed another, and we liked the braun so we bought the exact same one.

I am not sure which Braun you have but the one I used from my sister did partially break (maybe just a defect) but when compared to the juiceman the braun didnt extract nearly as much as the juiceman did; however, the braun at the time was around $70 and the juiceman almost $200.

Sears had the Breville JE95XL on sale last week. Linen's-N-Things have reduced the price of the Breville Compact Juice Fountain to $80. They have strong motors and have a pretty good reputation from what I understand.

I saw the breville at london drugs last month....it looks quite solid and it appears to be good.

this is the one i have... i've always found it to do a great job.
both times i paid in the $100 range.. so i guess it depends on how much you want to pay, i'm sure there are better.

Yup, that's the one. :)

my model is one below this one, but look at the power difference: http://www.epinions.com/pr-Salton_JM411_Juiceman_II_Elite_Juicer

But the braun is very good for what you get for the price.
