Juicer Recommendations?

[DisneyBeagle]

I have a family member that wants a juicer for Christmas. I have no idea about what to look for in a juicer. Does anyone have any recommendations?? They seem to be around $60-$100 which I think you would need to drink a whole lot of juice for that to be worth it, but she really wants one.

We just got one a few weeks ago after quite a bit of research. We got the Breville Juice Fountain and so far it's awesome! It retails for around $99 and the most important feature is that it is EASY to clean. If you get one that's a pain to use and clean, it'll get used for a few weeks and then will be put away to collect dust. This one is ultra-simple to clean - can be either hand washed easily or toss the few pieces which come in contact with food in the dishwasher.

We do make a lot of juice and actually turn it into our after-dinner entertainment and dessert. The kids help peel oranges (or whatever) and get a kick out of watching them be juiced... granted, they're all boys and the noise and sense of destruction totally appeals to them...

My mom has the Jack Lalanne juicer. It is fabulous! They don't live near us, but everytime they come to visit, my sons ask her to bring the juicer! It really is a good quality one.

I have the Breville Juicer, too. I love it!

I also have the Breville, and we love it. I have been using is for over a year now. It juices fast, and it is easy to clean up, too!

Can anyone share some of their recipes for your juice drinks?

Thanks for your replies. I will try to find a Breville juicer.

My mother in law had one of those older "heavy duty" juices that recently burned up the motor. I did a lot of research on Amazon and ended up with a Big Mouth juicer and she loves it. I only paid about $40 with free shipping.
It has a larger opening so you don't have to cut things up so small as with some juicers.

Amazon.com has many Breville juicers. Some are even refurb at great prices.
