"Blender is definitely most important!
It's best not to eat dehydrated food too often, anyhow (obviously, its dehydrating); best to just use such foods as a treat (raw "junk food" if you will);
however, smoothies are DELICIOUS, and…"

"It really depends what you think that you will be using more. I do admit that the high speed blender is amazing; I have a vitamix, but a dehydrator is also great as well for making snacks, warming your food up. When I started my journey into raw…"

"If you can afford the vita mix is the best. Try and get 1 piece of equipment at a time. I had my vita mix before I went raw I got as a gift a juicer and now am in the process of looking fir a dehydrator"

" First a Blender for those healthy green smoothies, then Food processor for all kinds of veggies dishes and pate's, and last, a dehydrator for when you start getting more creative."

"I use my dehydrator quite often, but my Vitamix is an every day (sometimes several times a day) piece of equipment. Get the best one you can afford, or you'll be replacing it often. My boss learned this the hard way after he started drinking…"

"I couldn't live without my Vitamix. And I recently bought the Omega VRT350 juicer. Love it!!!

"OK I got a blender!!! a Vitamix -after much research and comparison with Blendtec.
I'm very happy about this investment ;-)"
Myra Sarikaya replied to Leyla's discussion Blender or dehydrator? in the group The Common Area - Community Forum
"Definitely a blender. I have a Blendtec that I use every day at least once. My dehydrator I haven't used in many years. I recently upgraded from a centrifugal juicer to a Omega 8005, which I can highly recommend."
Sharon Reeves replied to Leyla's discussion Blender or dehydrator? in the group The Common Area - Community Forum
"Leyla....I couldn't afford either. I bought a Healthmaster (1200 watts, 2 HP). It's the blender that Montel Williams sells. I love it. You can get it brand new but cheaper than the infomercials on eBay. Just…"
