[quote author="tmare" date=1251708848]I thought about getting that thing many years ago. I can't remember, what makes it different from a regular juice machine?</blockquote>
the design in my opinion. It works really well and has a solid industrial feel to it. I've fed through apples cut in half, whole peeled lemons, whole raw beets with leaves, whole carrots, whole stalks of celery, whole ginger, whole bunches of grapes with stems, whole broccoli, quartered heads of cabbage, and a bunch of parsley. It jammed one time with too big of a piece of cabbage however the design makes it easy to pop off the top and clean out the offending piece. I paid $150 for the stainless steel "Pro" model. A great value IMO.
