4.0 out of 5 stars To Better Health!, February 1, 2005

By 

mrswoody "mrswoody" - See all my reviews

This juicer definitely produced the best juice. Put cool veggies and fruit in from the frig and get cool juice out, and the quality is outstanding. We have been juicing now for a month and we feel so much better. Because of the energy I get from the juice in the mornings, I was actually able to quick drinking coffee! While one of the other reviewers was correct in that this juicer does take up some counter space, the parts are definitely not made cheaply - at least on our model (the Green Star 3000). After all the junk that is being made these days, this machine is made of quality parts, and is actually a little bit heavy (but it has a nice handle).

We love our machine. We love having the best possible product coming out of our machine. The only drawback, and it is a slight one, it that the machine does take a few minutes to clean, and should be cleaned immediately after use. The parts are good quality, strong and durable, but not for use in a dishwasher (according to the manuafacturer.) If it were not for this, I would have given it five stars easily.

One hint: Plan you juicing ahead of time. Because the machine takes 4-5 minutes (for two people) to clean, and because of the quality of the product (the magnets and low speed and low heat which does allow the juice to remain fresh longer) we usually juice enough for two mornings at a time (for two adults). All told, between cutting up the veggies and fruit, the actual juicing, and cleaning up,it takes about 20 minutes every other day. This may seem a little long just for juicing, but for our health, it is way worth it!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Comparing juicers --Hard working juicer but has some problems, July 11, 2008

By 

Tasha (California) - See all my reviews

I had my GreenStar for four years. I juiced from 8-13 juices a day and it kept running. It was much cheaper than the Norwalk juicer and probably a lot easier to clean with less steps involved in juicing, although the pulp was not as dry as it could be. I decided to try the Super Angel mainly because it was impossible to clean the Green Star. The plastic pieces are stained and it looks pretty awful (but remember 4 years of daily juicing!) since the Super Angel 3500 is made entirely of stainless steel. The Green Star is around $450 and the Super Angel is $800 so you are paying more. But here are the differences: SA much easier to put together- 3 parts vs GS at 7. SA much quieter. SA much easier to clean and sterilize (you can put stainless steel in dishwasher but not the GS with its plastic). Finally, the pulp is drier with the SA meaning you are extracting more vitamins and minerals and buying less produce. I haven't had the SA long so I don't know if it has the staying power of the GS but I'm extremely happy with the results. If you can afford it I would suggest the SA. It would probably have made up the difference in cost with the produce I was juicing fairly quickly (at 8-13 juices a day). I started juicing after I was dx with clear cell ovarian cancer. I was very serious about juicing but didn't think I would be able to consistently juice with the Norwalk (too hard & time consuming). Although I haven't used a Norwalk (I have seen videos on how to juice with it) I don't think you could get any more juice from the SA pulp and the SA is a lot cheaper than the Norwalk, which at the last time I looked into it was running around $2000..
But back to the Greenstar: I have to say for the money the GS was a faithful worker but terrible to clean. Since Amazon doesn't sell the Super Angel I goggled it and order it from another site. I've ordered hundreds of items, books, gifts, etc. from Amazon and I would have liked to order the Super Angel 3500 from them but they didn't carry it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Juicer, Great Price!, June 29, 2004

By A Customer

I'm a big fan of the Green Star 3000. It was easy to set up and use straight out of the box! The best thing about this juicer is the juice that comes out of it. It's never heated up and always tastes fresh. I used to have another juicer that I barely used because the juice coming out of it was always warm and tasted bad. With the Green Star, my juice is always the same temperature as my produce, so I know I'm getting all of the goodness my produce has to offer.
