Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Hello Everyone, I need your help. Do I need a Champion Juicer and a Vita Mix? Also, I looked up the cost of the Vita Mix 4500, 5000, and Commerical. It seems that the dry mix container is an extra attachment for the 4500 and is included in the 5000 and Commerical. And, the difference between the 5000 and the Commerical may be the power. The cheapest price I've seen for the 4500 is $319, the 5000 is $479, and the Commerical $419.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 A vita mix is nice, but I've never gotten one. I use my juicer, blender and food processor.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 I toyed and toyed over and over with the idea of getting a Vitamix. I settled for a LeQuip blender and I'm very satisfied with it. I also own a juicer but I'm looking into one that is masticating. I'm thinking of getting the same model (LeQuip) in the Visor which may be just as good as a Champion or at least it will serve the purpose I need it to serve.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Hi Denise, Because each of these pieces of equipment are very good investments and will provide you with a variety of functions you'll have to decide what your needs are and which one to purchase. You may even decide to purchase both. In my opinion, I would say yes to both however, some people have managed without both. They can be very expensive also. You are very fortunate to have knowledge of a group such as this to provide you with informative dialogue, unlike Ron and myself, when I used the word " cold turkey " I mean it in every sense. We didn't know about support groups, but we knew that we had to establish a raw kitchen. Some equipment is easy to use and clean up, others make you not want to use them at all. I won't bore you with those items that used US as guinea pigs, rather what we have to date that became necessary. Champion Juicer Jack LaLaine Juicer 2 Wheatgrass Juicers Vita Mix - 5000 (Our choice because of the variable HI and LOW speed) Food Processor 9 Tray Dehydrator An old round 4 tray Dehydrator found in a Thirft Store (because it was $5 ) Electric Juicer Large and small Salad Spinners 2 Saladacos Sprouting Jars and Bags Glass Storage Containers Garlic Presser Fruit Baskets (wire and mesh for ventilation) Coffee Grinder All of these things one at a time over a two year period. Slicer (purchased during our meat eating days, ooops, did I say meat? ) Hope this is helpful. Good Health to You Elaine denise douglas <denisecd2002 wrote: Hello Everyone, I need your help.
