Apparently both Kerr and Ball are produced by "Jarden Home Brands". I'd guess they're pretty much the same.

Champion is good for home use but you would have a hard time keeping up with a number of people. You need to find a commercial juicer that will do volume. I have seen them a number of times but forgot the name.

All lid companies do their advertising differently. BALL, the brand I use most due to the fact that they seal 99.9% of the time advertise on their lids with their name and also a phrase "crafted for quality-sealed for freshness, Made in USA".

In my opinion, yes, it is way better than the bullet brand, and it will not make juice like a juicer can, it blends everything so well that it is a smooth pulpy juice type juice. It did not work good for dates, or wheat grass, but it is great for mincing,chopping, blending, and even aa sort of dough consistency type foods. It is a one speed blender, so it is fairly versatile. I use it everyday for protein shakes, it is the best basic blender that i have had so far.

The steamer basket is like a collander, with holes to let the juice flow through but keep everything else in the basket. No need to even stem fruit, just wash and process. Have made hundreds of quarts of juice. Juice is double strength, so you can usually get 1/2 gallon of drinkable juice from 1 quart of processed juice. So easy! Just make certain your jars and lids are sterile, fill the jar, screw on the lid, and it will seal within minutes. That's it. Best concord grape juice ever. Pie cherry juice is awesome, especially with a little fizz. And Santa Rosa plum juice is divine, so rich you can make more than 1/2 gallon from a quart, and also makes wonderful jelly. You can make jam from the left-over pulp, but it isn't as tasty as from fresh fruit. Can use the pulp for fruit leather too. For that, you do have to remove the seeds yourself!

Ok, I attempted to make the drink that, at San Diego Blenders, is called the 'Scorpion' (ginger, garlic, onion). I sliced up a piece of ginger lengthwise into 4 or so slices and threw them in the juicer. The juicer handled it easily. The screw (that rotates to do the crushing) is very heavy duty, as is the housing that the screw rotates in. No plastic parts. Regarding the wisdom of drinking pure ginger juice. Let's just say I now have three more hairs on my chest, but probably won't be drinking it again.

Like all juicers, the Juice Bullet does have some waste left over. It is the dry fibrous material of the fruits and veggies and I simply put it in my compost pile. Some machines blend the entire fruit, but that is really a different product.

The pulp varies according to how wet the produce is when you juice it. I rinse mine right before and don't bother to dry it. The pulp is moist. I have no problem with that. I often use the pulp on salads. I do not juice pineapple, strawberries or oranges. They do not do well in most juicers. I use them for smoothies in a blender. The stainless basket makes this juicer the best choice for me. Another popular brand has a plastic basket which does not hold up. I also like the separate hopper so I do not have to stop and empty it.

I have both Nutribullet and Vitamix. I've also had a dedicated juicer which I gave away...too much trouble. Anyway, Nutribullet works almost as well as Vitamix without having to take up so much counterspace. Also I believe the "juices" taste better when you keep the fiber in. Way more filling. Admittedly I can't give you any advice about the Ninja but I do believe you can't go wrong with Nutribullet.

both are probably decent, generic versions may be made with cheaper metals. Klean kanteen tends to be thicker and higher quality for long term use. The ones given out might be just as nice though.

I tried pineapple with it and it did not do a good job. The filter got clogged almost immediately. I have not heard of any juicer that does good with the softer fruits. I have found it better to make smoothies with those.

It fits a whole Apple but best to cut in quarters. I would go with a better juicer though cause it doesn't give much juice and pulp is still wet. Also the plunger flakes pieces of black plastic into the juice.

is it perfect for greens? No. however with a little practice and trial and error i have been happy with the amount of juice i get. try rolling the kale or spinach up tight and running through with cucumber or zucchini.all said would not trade for any other juicer

absolutely, I do use both on both. I think Ball bought Kerr out. But they both fit each & vise versa.

The Dynamax balls are definitely better. The JFIT ball is slicker and not quite as rugged. If you are using it alone in your garage it would be fine. Heavy use in a box i doubt they would hold up like a Dynamax

I love my JFIT ball. I've used it mostly in a garage so it has been slammed against the concrete floor without the typical gym padding, and the unfinished drywall. Even smacked the garage door runners/spring a couple of times-- stupid garage--and it looks like brand new. Dynamax is an excellent brand, but I'm happy with the 25lb one from jfit. Hope that helps.
