I will preface this with a note that I am not looking to do a juice fast or cleanse. I'm interested in juicing to up my consumption of veggies. I'm also focusing on adding them into meals regularly, but I think juicing would be a helpful complement.
A friend who is very into juicing recommended a masticating-type juicer. I just can't swing spending upwards of $400 or $500. So I'm looking at the centrifugal-type juicers. I know these have downsides.
Right now I'm looking at two Breville juicers and this is my frontrunner: http://www.brevilleusa.com/beverages/juicers/juice-fountain-multi-speed.html. I also like this one: http://www.brevilleusa.com/beverages/juicers/die-cast-juice-fountain-elite.html, but I don't know if the tech spec differences warrant the $100 jump.
Opinions on these or suggestions for other brands?
