Help me pick a blender & juicer

[GuavaGirl]

I'm looking to buy a blender for smoothies and a masticating juicer for greens. I'm not looking for top of the line, but mostly something to get the job done, decently well, with out breaking.

For the blender I'm thinking of this one from costco.

And for the juicer I'm thinking of this one.

Have you had any experience with either one, or do you have any recommendations. (I can't afford a vita-mix or Omega juicer)

Thanks!

I have this juicer and really like it: http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BJE20...5197156&sr=8-1

I bought my blender from a restaurant supply store. About half the cost of the VitaMix but the same power and quality. Well worth it!

I have the same Breville one as DogMom and really like it too.

I'm looking for the type of juicer than you would juice greens or wheatgrass with, so pretty much only the masticating type would work for that. right?

I have a vitamix and love it. But I formerly had kitchenaid blender's and liked them too (they just aren't up to blending up beans... I went through 2 in as many years )
