Green Star GS-1000 Juice Extractor Review

I've been juicing since the early 1990s and more recently, as a certified raw foods associate chef, have been preparing a wider range of juicer recipes including pates and ice cream from frozen bananas.I have experience with Green Star, Champion, Juiceman, and several other juicers, and have read quite a bit about various models of juicers.If you are going to be juicing a lot of greens such as kale and parsley, the Green Star will give you a better and more nutritious yield than any juicer on the market.It far exceeds masticating juicers such as the Champion in this regard, as well as centrifugal juicers such as theJuiceman.A huge benefit of Green Star is that it juices wheat grass, so you will not need a dedicated wheat grass juicer.It's also amazingly quiet, far quieter (and a bit slower) than my Champion.And like the Champion, it does a great job with pates, frozen ice cream, and other recipes requiring a homogenizing blade, also known as a "blank."With a slower speed, the juice does not heat up as much as with a Champion and oxidizes slower.

So is there a catch?Yes.There are far more parts to assemble, disassemble, and clean than with a Champion.I'm reminded of the time when my brother was a child, he asked to borrow my father's watch, and my father said, "sure."A few days later, my father wanted his watch back, and entered my brothers room to find a bazillion little pieces on the floor:gears, springs, etc.My brother explained that he wanted the watch so he could take it apart, but not to worry he said, "I'll put it back together."My father said, "don't worry about it, you can keep the watch."When I take apart a Green Star juicer, I always think of this story because it has so many more parts than a Champion.(Although fortunately, the Green Star is far easier to assemble and disassemble than an analog watch.:-)At the Living Light Culinary Institute where I trained as a raw foods chef, when we made pates and banana ice cream, we always reached for the Champion, not the Green Star.

In deciding whether to purchase a Green Star juicer, consider whether you are going to be juicing a lot of greens and/or wheatgrass, and whether you're really going to take the time to disassemble, clean, and assemble about a dozen parts each time you use it.If you're not put off by that, then I highly recommend the Green Star.If you are mostly considering a juicer for carrot juice, fruit juices, banana ice cream and pates, then I would steer you towards the Champion.If you want to use a juicer for all of the above and can afford and have the space for both, then I enthusiastically recommend both.

Note that there are 3 models of Green Star juicers, of which the GS1000 is their most basic model.The GreenStar.com website explains the various accessories that come with or can be purchased with each.Accessories such as pasta makers and mochi makers are available for purchase with the GS1000, but are included with the GS3000.
