Hi Sandi,

As far as cleanup time for the GS-2000, I think it usually runs me around 10 minutes or so. From the time that I start by getting out my vegetables until the time that the entire thing is cleaned and put away, the whole operation to extract a couple of glasses of juice usually takes around 20-25 minutes. Not a bad deal when considering how much energy and nutrients that juicing gives the body for hours. I usually juice carrots, beets, and celery for the most part, although there are many other good vegetables to use depending on your situation. Carrots and beets may not be suitable for someone on the candida diet because of their relatively high sugar content--I will have to check more into this when I am ready to start the candida diet in earnest.

I also agree with Russ's post above--my research on juicers led me to the same conclusions.
