Product Description
Champion Commercial Juicer G5-PG-710 Features & SpecificationsChampion Commercial Juicer G5-PG-710 - WHITE MODEL The Champion Commercial comes inBlack,Silver,White andAlmondThe Champion Household 2000+ is a veteran to the juicing market. Champion has been around for over 20 years and we have clients who still rave about their juicer. This is build of a powerful 1/3 horsepower heavy duty GE motor. The large 1.75" diameter feeding tube allows it to take in larger vegetables without cutting them. The floating cutter is designed to separate the juice from the pulp all in one continuous operation with little to no intermittent cleaning. The blades are made of tempered stainless steel that are cast into the cutter for strength and years of use. They never separate or rust!The Champion is also a very versatile machine and can juice all types of fruits and vegetables, but cannot juice wheatgrass. If you are looking for a wheatgrass juicer that can also do fruits and vegetables, 877MyJuicer.com recommends theLexen Electric Healthy Juicer.The Champion household is great for those juicing once to a few times a day. If you are needing more than that, we suggest theChampion Commercial (G5-PG-710). Generally juicing over 12 ounces a day constitutes the upgrade to the commercial juicer.Features:Juices all types of fruits and vegetablesMakes nut butters, frozen fruit sorbets, baby foods, ice creams, sherbets, purees, salsa, muesli and more!All parts are FDA approved650 Watt MotorSimple re-wire to make it a 220v Machine!

 Joyce Evans Is Misrepresenting Champion-Read On August 21, 2008
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
Whoever the reviewer named Joyce Evans is, she has a real problem, and it isn't Champion. This reviewer has gone on Amazon and other review sites with the same misrepresentation: that Champion doesn't support its older juicers with parts.
The Plastaket company, owned by the same family from the beginning, introduced the Champion in 1955. It was the same, now classic, design, using a large and very powerful GE motor turning at ~1700rpm, as opposed to 3500-16,000 rpm on a centrifugal juicer. Looking at the juicer, the feed/chute part, the cutting cone and the screen are made of high-grade nylon as opposed to the cheaper and easier molded plastic on today's juicers. With use over the years, the molds for these parts simply wore out and new, visually identical parts were made. However, this is a precision machine and the new parts were different enough that they don't fit the very oldest juicers.
My Champion was purchased nearly 30 years ago. After reading this woman's entries here and elsewhere, I called up Plastaket. As with any juicer heavily used, the cutting mechanism will dull over time and should be replaced every few years. The entire assembly was still available for my juicer, as I expected. I spoke at some length with the company and brought up this woman's work online. The change in the parts was explained to me; they readily stated that their very oldest juicers don't have an inventory of parts.
I ask other readers: how many small appliance manufacturers keep parts past a very few years? What do readers think of the probability of getting new cutting baskets for all these Juiceman and LaLanne labeled juicers 10 years from now, much less 30 years from now? The only juicers that I know of with enough history to check, are Acme/Omega (they use the same cutter wheel, still readily available) and Norwalk (at least for most parts for this $2000+ machine).
Though of course Ms. Evans doesn't bother to mention the age of the Champion to which she refers, re Plastaket it must be a very, very old model. This woman states on her profile that she is some type of 'professional' and 'educator'. This 1-star rating combined with her refusal or inability to even review the machine should nullify her review. I have no problem if this person doesn't like the machine--who knows what she is thinking? After seeing this very same, quite unfair byline on more than one juicer review site, I can't decide whether she's some type of Champion weirdo or just a nut.
 Beware of Part replacement May 22, 2008

I discovered today that Champion DOES NOT SUPPORT older models. They still appear to be identical but you can't get replacement blades. If you are purchasing now and think you can get a replacement when needed...think again.
If you don't care about future support then it's a great machine.

a superb juicer: excellent build quality, easy to use, easy 2-3 minute cleanup, very quiet, fast, produces a whole lot of juice, works fine with leafy veggies as well. the juice is not warmed up in the process (a major point), and TASTY!
very minor gripes: quite a bit of foam, but that is true with any juicer; the white plastic will stain, but that's not a functional problem; I would prefer they had made the parts that contact the food from hdpe instead of pvc but I've never noticed any off flavor.
summary: if you juice a lot, just skip the cheap (or expensive) junk and get this. there are very few other products that are even in the same league; breville is also ok for some stuff, but if you want a masticating juicer (and you know you do) get this one. did i mention the 10yr warranty?
