Another thing I would like to incorporate into Raw Living is product reviews. They are fun, helpful, and informative for potential buyers. Sooooo, my first product review is here!

The Healthy Juicer I just received in the mail yesterday and I am extremely excited about it. The #1 reason this juicer appealed to me initially was the price. Juicers are expensive. Everyone is cutting back on spending. If you want an affordable juicer, this is definitely it! The investment is just $50 (depending on where you buy the price may vary). This is a steal for a juicer.

I have used it twice since I opened the package yesterday. The first thing I made was carrot juice. Today I made a kale-apple-carrot juice which started my day off wonderfully!

Pros:

1. The price!
2. It is really easy to take apart and clean. I just rinse with water and let it dry on a rack.
3. Portability. If you need to take a juicer with you on a trip, this is the one
4. It juices wheatgrass, veggies (celery, carrots, etc.), fruit (pineapple, apples, oranges, etc.), green leaves (kale, parsley, etc.), and more.
5. You can use just the suction bottom for stability, or add the clamp for extra sturdiness.

Cons:

1. It is manual, which takes some might and energy on your part.
2. You can only feed a small portion of produce at a time (like two baby carrots, or a few pieces of an apple).
3. A small ledge for the clamp is important, and if you don’t have one you can’t use the clamp.
4. The white plastic is already slightly stained from juicing carrots (after two uses).

Now I need to figure out what to do with the pulp, because I just hate throwing it away! Also, I am looking into growing/buying fresh wheatgrass so I can start making my own fresh juice at home. Very exciting stuff

On the next edition of Window Wednesday, I will give you a visual of how it works. Don’t forget to subscribe!
