Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 I am surprised to see someone saying it is annoying to clean the Green Life juicer. I have always found the Green Life juicer to be one of the easiest there is to clean. It takes about 5 minutes. And unless they have changed it, I have seen no control to allow more or less pulp into the juice. There are two different screens, one with small holes, one with larger holes, so that if you use the screen with the larger holes you get more pulp into the juice. But there is no " control " as such, not on mine. I have had some 5 or 6 different juicers---a Panasonic, an Acme, a Champion, a Norwalk and a Green Life. For me, the Green Life is far and away the best of all. The Panasonic left far too much juice in the pulp. The Acme also left juice in the pulp, and THAT one was VERY difficult to clean. The Champion also left too much juice in the pulp. The Norwalk was too big and heavy and too time-consuming to use. The Green Life Juicer gets the pulp VERY dry, it is a cinch to clean compared to most of the others, and it is QUIET, which I love. Imagine a juicer which, when you are using it, allows you to have a normal tone conversation with someone while you are both standing right next to it.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Thanks for such thorough information, Elliot. What are the benefits of juicing over eating the vegetables raw? I notice that you say that the Champion left a lot of juice in the pulp. Is that a bad thing, or just a preference to have a dry pulp? Thanks again for any advice from anyone.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Hi Margie, You want to get as much juice out of the pulp as you can. The benefit of drinking juice is that you get all the nutrients you can from the veggie or fruit directly into your system quickly. There are downsides to juicing. For instance, fiber is removed, yet fiber is important in diet. For people who have digestive issues or who are very sick, juicing is a great thing to do. Some people do not respond well because the fruit sugars hit their system fairly hard. ar margie.jeanne said: > ...What are the benefits of juicing over eating the vegetables raw?

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 I have never tried a Green Life but have read about them. They would be my first choice but I think they cost something like $600. I have had an Atlas juicer since 1975. I got it used and it looks like it was made in th '50s by the paint job. It is very similar to theAcme. The Acme will get quite a bit of juice out and is easy to clean if you use a paper filter with veggie juices. I do not use it for fruit juices though as I want a little pulp with them.\ GB > > I am surprised to see someone saying it is annoying to clean the Green > Life juicer.
