Searching High and Low...

I had a uni-course mate who setup a juicing outlet somewhere in the central area. And he was actually distributing Hurom! I got so excited and overjoyed... With our connection, I thought I could get myself a little further discount... However, the price of Hurom was pretty steep even at the supplier side, so there's not much "juice" I could get out of our special connection... He tried his best to offer the lowest price he could but it was still out of my budget... I guess I just wasn't ready to spend a big sum on juicer afterall...

Soon, I began to reflect and realize what I was looking for...

#1 Quiet Juicer (If its noisy, I won't buy it no matter how cheap it is.. And why did I care abt noise? Because I have a baby at home and another on the way. I cannot juice if its too noisy)

#2 Budget (If it's so perfect but way too expensive, there's no way I can swallow the bill... So I need to be realistic and stay within my budget!)

#3 Effective (What's the point of getting a juicer that can't juice, right? So at the minimum, it should be able to fulfill its claim to be capable of juicing 50% more than traditional juice extractors... so that I could achieve cost savings and reduce food wastage)

#4 Convenient (Easy to clean is a must... I had washed up a traditional juice extractor once or twice.. it's a lot of time and effort)

I'd stop here because if I grow my criteria any longer, there's no way I can find a juicer which meet my criteria #2... HAa! So these are the basics, for me!

I continued to browse on web about slow juicer products, reviews, promotions and so on, hoping to catch a good deal one day...

(P/s: If you want to ask why didn't I get Hurom at 1/2 the price from Qoo10 aka Singapore GMarket, my answer is simple, its not compatible with Singapore's power/current standard. Anything to do with motor and heavy usage, I'd prefer to go with safety and standards. Also, its warranty could also be an issue since its not local set. Just FYI...)
