I am looking for a resonably priced, yet sturdy manual juicer, preferably multifunctional.
I already have a Greenstar and I like it, though it is a pain to clean. The new situation is that my daughter and I are moving to an apt which is all electric. That means no more heat and hot water included in rent payment. So anyway I can conserve is a bonus, besides the fact that a manual will be more compact and space saving.

There is one on the market that, if memory serves, is called the Healthy Juicer. It sells for a lower cost than the popular wheatgrass juicers, but it is not constructed of all stainless either. The majority of this made of poly and lexan. It seems as though the juice may not be as refined as with the Greenstar, but this is not a problem for me.

The thing is that I always consider what I've read and have been told about stainless and nutrition retention. The purpose for using ceramic knives, the effects blender blades have on food, etc. So is using stainless juicers and stainless jugs to carry this juice just as detrimental to vital nutrients?
