Penny-Arcade is a comic strip that caters to gamers. There was this one strip where the Devil was doing something, and in the last frame, he's checking his mail and comments that his "Fruit Fvcker 2000" came. Apparently Tycho (the guy who does the newsposts/commentary) liked the idea, so he had Gabe (the artist) incorporate it into a bigger strip. Personally, I can't look at the second and third frames without laughing :)

that was hilarious...but to get back on topic, my parents have the juiceman, and similar to other things you buy on tv, they used it for two months, and now its just sitting there...and all they ever made was like papaya juice and crap like that...blech

my family has a juicer...prolly two! we never use it anymore, along with every other tv commercial product we've bought heheh. anyways, i wouldn't get it for oj..it's more thick than normal freshly squeezed oj. if you want to have freshly squeezed oj i suggest you buy one of those thingies that you put the orange halves on top and twist...those are cheaper and make better oj. (know what i'm talking about??) also florida oj tastes pretty close to freshly squeezed..you should try it!

I had a used professional model from a juice bar until about 6 months ago when the motor burned out. The thing was a stainles steel monster at about 50lbs. I got it for helping a friend design all the ads and menus and stuff for his his health food store. IIRC it had a monstrous 4 HP motor. Most home models nowadays have a 1/4-3/4 HP motor. The stronger the motor the better usually, especially if you tos the whole item in there, rind/root and all, like I do.

Champion juicers are some of the best out there and same with Omega. I know many health food stores that use them. They make many smaller personal models too. I have been told though, by many people that the Juiceman 2 is pretty good and a good value. 4-5 people I knw have them and they juice almost every day with no problems. Only one person I know had their motor fail on them, but got it replaced via the 5 year warranty. I may get one myself soon. I just hope I don't grow those big eyebrows like the juiceman :p

Here is a comparative chart of some common home juicers.
