Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 I left the DC/Maryland area for a little while and had been hanging out with some raw food folks in California. A lot of the folks who are trying to save money have been purchasing Jack LaLane's new Healthmaster 100 (http://www.healthmaster100.com). I have not personally used it but for the price of around $150, I personally would take the chance with it. There is a video/audio on the website comparing it to the Vitamix. It supposedly does all the same things and is made with the same types of parts and motor. If any one purchases one, please provide us some feedback. http://www.healthmaster100.com/Kat Fussy?

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Also, I heard Costco has a good price on the Vita-Mix and it is on sale there from time to time. Once in a while people sell them on Craigslist but that happens more on the West Coast than in the East. Kat Moody friends. Drama queens. Your life? Nope! - their life, your story.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Hey Kat, This Health Master 100 looks great! If I didn't already have a Vita Mix, I'd jump right on it. I would suggest any member out here who's in need of a high speed blender/juicer to consider purchasing this item.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 If the healthmaster100 does not comes with a plunger like the vitamix, that would be a great disadvantage and Jack Lalane puts a lot of money into promotion and marketing which makes me wonder how much money goes into the quality of the products if their main purpose is to make more money? For example-Jack Lalane may have one of the best selling juicer but not the best juicer for the prices he charges as compared to other juicers with similar features such as breville or L'equip juicer. Be an educated consumer-go to www.discountjuicers.com and review the comparison charts,as well as the reviews from actual customers for blenders,juicers,etc. Then call the actual company for the wholesale price.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 The Health Master 100 does, in fact, come with a plunger but in my opinion, that's not the most important issue here. During an attempt to transition to raw, the quality, higher priced items with all of the bells and whistles aren't always immediately affordable. I know a few people who jumped right into outfitting their kitchens with everything from juicers to dehydrators along with the highest price tag and sadly, decided that raw wasn't for them. It's perfectly ok to start small, realize progress, then take steps to suit up with the best. Initially, most believe that transitioning is going to be such a dreaded task that causes them to spend longer ours with food prep and much more money on food. Arriving at a rawfood lifestyle requires consistancy, creativity, discipline and serious desire. We burned out Juice Man, Juice Man II, Oster, Hamilton Beach and a dehydrator from the thrift store before we were able to move on to the more expensive items. But is was fun learning and changing our lifestyle. One of my mottos has been " anything worth having is worth waiting for. " This will also keep you from going overboard then deciding, NO. Yes quality is important but it is more important when you're sure of what you need.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 for $150 you get a 60 day warranty with the Health Master 100.... however, you can go over to Costco and pay approximately $359 for a brand new Vita Mix 5000 and get a 7 YEAR warranty........ which sounds like the better deal? --Makeda "Until the lion has his or her own storyteller, the hunter will always have the best part of the story" -------------- Original message -------------- "Elaine" <shortydemp Hey Kat,This Health Master 100 looks great!

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I understand what you're saying... I already purchased it and if it fails to meet my needs, I'll slap it on Craigslist or Ebay. I'm still learning how to uncook anyways- and the fancy dehydrators and such in my kitchen are collecting dust. Gonna take baby steps... I always know I can call my Mom or Dad and get it from the PX, since someone gave me that 'gem' of an idea! Thank you for your insight, though...

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I am not saying that the Healthmaster is or is not a better deal than the Vita-mix. I was just suggesting, similar to Elaine, that not every one has access to a military base or Costco and not every one has $300 bucks to spend on a blender. My main objective when spreading information about raw foods is to help it be accessible to more people regardless of income. Expensive equipment should not prevent more people from being healthy. And like Elaine said, when people are just getting started there is no reason to go out and buy a bunch of expensive equipment you might not use. In California, so many people purchase these products, never use them and then resell them. Like Elaine, I burned through several cheaper blenders before justifying the cost of a Vita-Mix. I called Healthmaster and although there is a 90 day warranty that comes with it, there is a 3 year extended warranty for $15 and a 6 year extended warranty for $30. In addition, when you call, they will offer you $30 off the price. So for $174.96, it covers the 6 year extended warranty and shipping ($144.96 with shipping and a 90 day warranty). The person I spoke to is Lauren/Operator #32 at (973) 287-5167 if another rep does not offer the $30 discount. Pinpoint customers who are looking for what you sell.
