Wardy, I bought a Jack La Lannes pwer juicer a couple of years ago and I have found it really good. As long as your fruit is organic you can just wash and put things like carrots and apples etc in, without the fiddly peeling. My favourite energy drink is a combination of apples, carrots and kiwi fruit (which you do peel). You can even combine the left over pulp into sauces and casseroles. It does sit on the kitchen work surface permanently, and it is quite bulky if you are short of space, but I can reccomend it. :) busy_lizzie
