entry-level juicer

Post by dean2k » Wed Nov 26, 2014 1:29 pm

Can any of you BN juicers comment on the item below as an entry level juicer? Roughly $120 taxes in. Reviews across multiple websites appear to be good. Anything I need to take note of/watch for?

Reviews look decent enough on it. Maybe have a boo at Kijiji, there's some deals there.... The Jack Lalanne's aren't too bad for a starter (for $40 - $50), couple decent Breville units there same as the one used in the "Fat, sick and nearly dead" documentary, some new never used etc....

The "Fat, sick and nearly dead" juicer is the one we have. I have no complaints for the type of juicer it is. I know I could spend a lot more on a better juicer, but this one accomplishes what I'm using it for.

Looks decent. Good power ~800W, large spout and large separate pulp resevoir. The juice resevoir is really small though, (found that out with my cuisinart) There's a comparable 5-speed 1000W Bella brand at Wally's for $80 too that might be worth looking at.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Rather go new than used, but didn't think of looking at Kijiji for new. Good call. Will require a little more time and effort to look around, but now feel pretty good about that HB if I do go that route. cheers.
