Honest realistic review
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

These are 4 star machines for what green star are trying to achieve. First they have moved away from the 90s look of the original, because some people actaully leave this stuff on the side and as a company wanting to survive it needs to stay relevent. Second it's a twin gear juicer focusing on achieving high quality juice for its higher than average price range. Comparison to a £200-250 single auger yes it's different but not difficult at all. Compared to the older model it now has flaws in its design, but there is always something to address in every appliance. Everyone talking about the cleaning being difficult you should ignore, the only difference between this and a single auger is that you have to clean part of the actual machine where the parts are attached beacue it's not a single unit. I count 5 parts that need cleaning, just the same as my Samson juicer has. The flaws are the casing is not as bomb proof as it's predecessor (you can still buy the original if you do not mind it's looks and slightly more difficult to assemble and disassemble design) and it has the potential to allow a little more pulp through. But if you seriously want only water soluble fibre then you should always be filtering through a organic cheese cloth for higher quality juice. One more thing beacause it seems to come up a lot, you should not be juicing fruit you should be eating fruit as it's fibre helps slow down the suger rush, for soft fruit get a single auger juicer if you are desperate for them drinks but these are actaully designed for vegetable juices. If would like to make coconut cream, then this is you cheapest machine to make a high quality homemade cream. Don't listen to the one stars.

An excellent machine which works very well
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Having tried all types and brands of juicer and blenders, over the years for broadly following the principles of the Gerson Diet, from the Super Angel, to the Champion (still in daily use 20 years on with a welles press) and various manual models I stuck with the Champion.A friend then bought an old green star twin gear model, at a bootfair.A good design but with a serious flaw.The white plastic worm screws which push the pulp out on the nose end of the stainless crushing gears can crack over time, a common problem, in all of the Tribest twin gear models except the PRO commercial model, which has all stainless one piece crushers with integrated gears which put me off any purchase.The all stainless gears as standaerd in the PRO model are available as an aftermarket purchase for £200.00 a set, which I assume will also fit the elite models. (I would ask the importer, Savant distribution in the UK) which if they do, this will then bring the price of the 'basic' models up to the commercial rated 'Pro' model reviewed here but not sold by Amazon, and available elsewhere in the UK.The 'PRO' model supposedly has an uprated motor and wiring, and the said all stainless gearset, and in the States has a 15 year warranty! (Not in the UK though, mysteriously).I bought the PRO model on spec for the indestructible stainless gears as the engineering design was clearly well thought out and identical to the Elite model, apart from the gears.These juicers run slow and do not vibrate the whole house through the kitchen worktop, unlike the Champion, and do produce a comparatively cool juice, which drops into the supplied Pyrex jug.No machine is perfect for every purpose, there are always compromises, in this case the cleaning can take a while.The parts are very simple to dissasemble, but do get messy internally, but are very easy to wash off under a running tap.Except the screen, which does get very clogged and the supplied scraper and brush are a very welcome inclusion.Granted, the screen takes a bit of effort to clean. but that is

Does the job as promised
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Slow juicer obviously requires power and time to make a juice. My family has been using this machine every day for last 4 years. No replacement of any part , even cleaning brush still the same. It makes best juice I have ever tried. Countless health benefits e.g high blood pressure lowered with no pills. I can highly recommend this machine to everyone. It’s expensive but worth every penny.

9/10 , Very good juicer.
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

After 3 years of using ( ~100 times ) still happy. Jusier do the job - everything what they promise. Even more like grind/mill potato for the potato pancake, mill cabbage for stuffing in a tortilla wrap. 1 point I take out for cleaning ( 7-10 minutes if fresh, don't leave for later - min 15 minutes of cleaning). A small advice for the designer - next version do bigger - because after 1-1,5 L of juice a strainer is partly blocked and time is double to do the job. I cleaning the strainer in the middle of work. My wife also said that is heavy for her but we storage juicer on shelf ~1,7m high. If you looking for Quality of juice, efficiency, no matter of time, lots of juice- Green Star Elite is for you. But if you are busy/ intensive life - one cup of juice in the morning (quick&go) it is not for you.

Nice self-torturing device
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Just got a chance to try this at my mother's place.First things first: the pulp is indeed dry, very dry, and a fraction of what I was used to with the Breville power juicer I normally use.Having said that, this is an absolute misery to use. The slot for inserting the fruits is tiny, which means you have to chop everything up first. Then you have to use considerable force and patience to push everything down with the plunger at a painfully slow speed. Bits are always getting stuck and you have to take your time unsticking them and trying again.The construction quality is also not very impressive. Cheap plastic covering.If you value your time I would recommend a power juicer for less than a tenth of the price. Yes, you won't get as much juice, but given the time and effort you will save..

Product Description

Tribest Greenstar Elite - The World's Best Juicer? The Green Star Elite is the newest addition to the world's most reputable line of juice extractors - the Green Star range. Based on feedback from loyal customers and juice connoisseurs, Tribest, the makers of the Green Star range have come up with a new sleek design, even more effective juice extraction through a revolutionary change to their twin gear technology and a number of other improved features in the design of the new Green Star Elite. The Green Star Elite has raised the bar even further from its competitors bringing a revolutionary change to their already leading Twin Gear technology. Well known for introducing twin gears to juicing with two stages to the juicing process - crushing and pressing, Tribest now reveal Jumbo Twin Gears with 3 stages by adding a mixing stage on the gears.Inspired by the work of the Gerson Institute dedicated to the healing and prevention of diseases in a natural way, they strongly recommend mixing the pulp from apples and carrots together while juicing. The new Jumbo Twin Gears in the Green Star Elite Juicer allows for the mixing of the pulp so that cell membranes can be easily opened to allow more minerals to be extracted. New unique three stage process:Stage 1 is the crushing and cutting of veg and fruit, slowly without the damaging heat from centrifugal juicers.Stage 2 is the mixing of the pulp so that cell membranes can be easily opened to allow more minerals to be extracted. By adding the mixing stage in between the crushing and pressing stages, juicing soft fruits has also become much easier and more effective. Stage 3 is the pressing part of the process. The shape of the gears at the pressing stage is different from the mixing stage and forces the produce against the screen separating the juice from the pulp as hard as possible thus producing a fresher juice with a higher nutritional value. Indeed, the very fact that the Jumbo Twin Gears are longer than anything else on the market means that produce is being juiced for longer leading to higher yields. Indeed, the Greenstar Elite produces an even higher juice yield than the other Greenstar Juicers which already led the market for juice yield. This is seen clearly by the very dry pulp ejected from the machine at the end of the process. The Bio-magnets included in the Green Star range are also included in the Jumbo Twin gears ensuring that the more minerals are "pulled" into the juice and increasing the juice's bioavailability meaning your body can more effectively absorb and utilize the dissolved minerals. Other new features include:New locking mechanism - a new one snap step making it quick and easy to assemble and disassemble the machine.Easy Clean up - by combining parts through the new sleek design there are fewer parts than other competitive machines which means less to clean. Dishwashable - all components of the Greenstar Elite are now dishwashable Carrying handle - to allow easier movement of the machine between storage and kitchen worktop Lighter in weight - All Green Star Elite components such as the twin gear housing and outlet casing are now lighter in weight than its predecessors. Other items included are fine and coarse juicing screens, homogenizing blank, glass pitcher, cleaning brush, outlet adjusting knob, plastic plunger, cleaning brush, drip tray, breadstick set, detailed instruction manual. The Green Star Elite makes easy work of juicing hard root vegetables, soft fruits, wheat grass and everything in between. It also comes with a bread stick maker.
