Do you need a high-speed blender and juicer for a healthy lifestyle? No, of course not! It's a choice we made and are excited to have these new appliances in our kitchen.
I wasn't expecting the juicer to arrive until next week but again, I was surprised when it came a mere three days after placing the order.

| Yay! |
The juicer has a thicker manual than the Blendtec but there are a lot more moving parts. D had it up and together in no time, i.e. he did not read the manual :)

| So pretty! |
We went with apple juice as I've never tasted fresh apple juice.

| Ready to fire up |
The juice was delicious!

Making the juice is a breeze but cleaning takes more time - well, just the basket, really.

| Here's the culprit and its brush |
D is continuing to experiment with easier ways to get squeaky clean but right now, it's time consuming. We're all ears if you have any suggestions!
I had promised to myself when I got a Blendtec or juicer, I would embark on another feasting journey. Not only did I start but D is joining in this time. We're on our second day but that's another post.
Happy and healthy weekend!

I really need to get me one of those, I saw this guy on youtube use it and fell in love with it.
Congrats on the Blendtec!! I have a Vita-Mix. You don't need a high speed blender, but they make life a little easier. :-)
Wow! Nice and durable. Enjoy using it!
I just got a Breville Juicer and I love it. I need a blender though. What made you buy the Blendtec over the Vitamix?
Hello purple_moonflower! Yep! I love the Breville. Cleaning has also become quicker so I'm happy for that.
We chose the Blendtec for it's smaller size and automatic controls. I love just pressing a button and it produces the same quality of sauce, smoothie, etc every time. I definitely recommend getting the WildSide jar as you will not need to use a tamper. It's pretty amazing and I have no complaints so far.
Oh you've just inspired me to buy another juicer. Ours broke and now I miss it! Have fun juicing!
We've had so much fun! It runs so smoothly!
