Some including myself have previously asked about juicers. I bought a
Wheateena on ebay. Was supposed to be a "Red Label" wound up being a "Green
Label" with a red label on the motor. I think the seller was less than
honest. Will give you his seller id if you email me off list. Enough of that.
I didn't like it. It is built like a tank. I don't know how you could ever
destroy it unless you didn't lube it! It wasn't as easy to clean as my
Champion. Has several wing nuts to remove and a metal screen to remove. Not
difficult, but not near as easy to use as the plastic ones.
The other thing I didn't like was that it has too much liquid escape where
the pulp comes out. To get maximum juice you have to run it through several
times. I think that problem has probably been solved with the Red Label
model.
I now have a Omega 8001. I bought it at juicers for less for $215, Wheateena
cost $250 plus shipping. One thing about buying on line as opposed to ebay is
the shipping is included when buying from retail sites on the internet. Some
of the sites to tell you to email for the best price. The best regular price
for the Omega 8001 was 229.95. When asking for the best price found a price
of $215 shipping included.
I like the Omega 8001 very much. It is easy to assemble and disassemble. The
pulp coming out of it is completely dehydrated and no reasom to run it
through again.
Hope this helps someone.
Any questions, don't hesitate to email me.
