Based
on my personal experience, it’s best to have a checklist similar to this when you shop for a juicer:
- Purpose – Do you really
need to buy a juicer? If you have not tasted wheatgrass before, do spend
$2-$3 buying a shot of wheatgrass from the juice bar to make sure it is
something you will drink over a sustained period of time. Most of the
people I’ve spoken to enjoy wheatgrass juice, but there are some who
don’t quite like the taste. If you’re like me, you may be pleasantly
surprised!
- Price – What is your
budget? If you are buying a juicer for personal use, you may not want to
spend too much money on it unless money’s not a problem. My first and
only juicer has been a low-priced, manual one (as described previously),
and I’ve found that it suits me well.

Is the juicer easy to use and easy to clean? Does it have fine screens that have
to be scrubbed? If you’re a busy person, you want to be able to use and lean the juicer in the shortest time
possible. Like most people, you’re not running a juice bar and can’t take half a day off to operate and clean the machine! Remember, if it’s not
easy and fast to use, you won’t use it. Wheatgrass juice is best
assimilated into your diet and as such, you should be drinking it every day
or every alternate day so the juicer must be easy to use and to clean.

Is the juicer long-lasting? Will the juicer
rust after some time? Drinking wheatgrass from a rusty juicer defeats the
purpose!
|
- Place – Do you have a
place where the juicer an be
used conveniently? Does the juicer
need to be clamped down thereby occupying valuable bench top space?
Can the juicer be stored away conveniently when not in use?
