Champion G5-PG-710 - Visitor Comment

I recently got the Champion G5-PG-710 juicer because my fiance and I have been making a conscious effort to eat a healthier diet and improve what we've been eating.

She is not big on change and has been drinking those same super sugary cranberry juice mixes forever. Finally I convinced her that fresh juicing will have a much better overall health effect.

I shopped around a lot, and I mean a LOT, this one is built more sturdily than some of the cheaply made infomercial juicers. There seems to be a large gap in the market that exists for juicers.

Your first option is to go to a discount store, purchase a poorly made juicer for 40 bucks and have it break a week later. Your second option is buying a $2,000 super-upscale model which will do what you want, but drain your bank account.

The Champion juicers seem to find a perfect space between these two extremes by offering a durable, commercial-quality juicer, at a reasonable price. It also had a better warranty than most.

The champion also has a few features that most people will find useful. There is an optional grain miller attachment which is bonus for do-it-yourself kitchen people like myself.

The juicer also has a 1.75" diameter feed tube which is larger than most juicers. Most of the smaller fruits such as small apples and tangerines only need a quick slice in half to fit into the tube for juicing.

The Champion is also extremely simple and quick to use. I would honestly say that the only thing that some may find as a negative is the heavier weight at 25 pounds. However, if you never plan on moving it or have a capable athletic person in the house to move it around, weight will not be any issue.

Aditionally, I think that the heavier weight is simply because it is built so solid and not with cheap materials like so many kitchen appliances today. Overall, the Champion is a great value and the perfect juicer for people that are serious about their health.
