I have one. I think it is great but I got mine for a little over a $100 and

I have seen them for almost $200. I don't juice as much as I use to but hope

to do it a little bit more often. I would try and find one used or cheap but

I am always looking for a bargain. I think it is probably worth the money

but why pay full price if you don't have to.

I've used a champion, and it's not nearly as easy as the greenlife, which is the

one I have now and the one I suggest.

Shari,

Glad to see you using Standard Process. It's so essential to use

supps made from food.

On the Champion. There are people who have stronger opinions on

this than I however from what I've seen its a great machine, it will

last forever and if necessary you can use the motor for your lawn

mower if you'd like.:-) However it seems that it masticates at such

a high rate of speed that the heat generated causes some enzyme

loss. Much the same issues found with some grain mills. Now that

said I know people who would sell their own mother before they gave

up their champion. The juicer that seems to be most reliable in the

quality area that I am aware of the the Green Power which if you

think the champion is expensive you just went up in price. I haven't

priced them recently but I think they're in the $450-$600 range.

Keep up the good work Shari,

All My Best,

Shari -

I found my greenlife juicer for about $350 online, but I don't remember the

site. I just used search engine, search was green life juicer, and then I

surfed for the best price.

I believe Green Life and Green Power are the same juicer.

The Green Power juicer is a smaller more expensive and LESS sturdy

version of the Green Life juicer. Most people I know prefer the Green

Life. It can be bought for around $375 delivered from some discount

sites on the net ( http://www.discountvegetarian.com for example,

but shop around). It is superior to the champion especially for

making celery juice and juice from tougher greens and coconuts (I have

owned both). Also, the juice actually comes out cold (same temp as

the refrigerated veggies you may be using to make juice) and less

oxidized (low speed twin gear crusher/expeller).

Peace...

The following is someone's recent post on the same

topic. Got it from TherapeuticNutrition group.

" It's a great juicer and it juices just about anything

at slow speed (using spiral, crushing and chopping

gears). So there is no heat produced during juicing.

It's the only one that can make coconut cream. It

takes more time to clean than most juicers (about 8

minutes for me now that I've got the procedure down

pat). But I can juice lots and lots of stuff before

having to clean it out (unlike the Champion which

would get jammed with celery very easily and very

often). It's a bit more expensive (around $325 or so)

but it seems to be very rugged and long-lasting -

mine's about 2 years old now and in tip-top shape. It

can juice soft fruits and vegetables (like cucumber or

zucchini, etc.) as well as hard ones like carrots,

etc. Customer service is very helpful and generous

and they sent a replacement part that had gotten

cracks on the outer casing. Well the original casing

is still cracked but it doesn't affect the operation

one little bit - and now I have a free, new

replacement if that one ever conks out. A cleaning

brush is provided as well as small and large straining

screens and a " club " for pushing the vegetables into

the hopper. It's about the same size as the Champion

- maybe a little " fatter " , taller and has a handle on

top to carry or move it.

It has magnets in the gears which are supposed to help

preserve the nutrients in the juice. I can't say if

they really have any effect or not. But I used to

have a Champion and also had another top-loading

high-speed juicer (can't remember the brand) and the

Greenlife just blows away the competition IMHO. "

Shari,

I think champions are good juicers but I think the green power is even better.

I remember when I was researching juicers it was generally considered the best -

very sturdy plus it adds negative electrons to the juice which is healthy (don't

remember exactly how it does this.) We bought a good used green power juicer off

one of the raw sites for about $300 - it was in almost new condition, had the

manual and recipe books - great deal! I think the site was www.living-foods.com

You might also check ebay.
