Z-Star Manual Wheatgrass Juicer
July 15, 2010 | Featured, Products | Share
The other day I received a box from Amazon.com, courtesy of the UPS guy.
I’d been expecting this, a Z-Star Manual Juicer Wheatgrass Juicer.
What was I thinking? Why the “manual” juicer with a hand crank?
Well, my main reasons are listed below. But, I’ve read a lot about the benefits of wheatgrass juice, drank shots of the stuff already, and am convinced that the stuff is good for me.
. . . .
My Reasons For Buying A Manual Juicer
- Well, the rationale was that I wouldn’t have to use electricity, using my own physical energy to churn out some wheatgrass juice and other types of juices. Thus, saving a bit on my electrical bill by doing the work myself, knowing that daily use of an electric juicer can add up.
- Another reason for going manual was to save money, obviously. Because buying an electric version would cost maybe 2-3 times more.
- And last but not least, a manual juicer can be taken anywhere, even to places where there is no available electricity! I could even take this on camping trips.

A Box Within A Box
Once I opened the Amazon.com box, another box was inside which was the actual box for the product.
. . . .
The parts were all wrapped up neatly and protected well. It was very obvious which parts were which, and assembly looked like it was going to be a breeze!

Easy To Assemble, Ready To Go
Right out of the box, the Z-Star Manual Wheatgrass Juicer was pretty-straightforward, and easy to assemble.
The hand crank was easy to turn with most fruits and vegetables. Juicing wheatgrass was a breeze, but I admit that I had some difficulty with juicing carrots and watermelon rinds. I feared that if I applied to much force something would break. But that’s understandable with tougher foods.
The fact is, this manual juicer seemed very sturdy and easy to use with most fruits and vegetables.
Another plus is the fact that it’s easier to clean than my two other centrifugal juicers! Not a problems at all.
