Champion Household

I have owned and used the Champion Household Juicer since about l980 or two or three or more years earlier. I have used it most of the time but do have periods of time that I do not use it.
The motor is still good and I only need to replace two parts within the last year or two which I have not done as I can still use it. The funnel is cracked and chipped off so I need to replace it.
The "body" has a piece of plastic broken off so I have to hold it when juicing so it doesn't turn as the juice is ejected and the pulp is ejected as I press with the plunger. Now the body is only $39. plus and the funnel seems available also at this time for only $9.99.
My decesion to get a new Jack LaLanne on sale at this time will be only because it might be lighter in weight. The Champion Household juicer is heavy for me to lift and move around on my counter. (I am 82 years old)
Also since I have to leave my juicer on the counter and can't lift it back and forth or have storage room I am wondering about a Jack LaLanne juicer.
I may be disappointed as I have loved my Champion juicer. If I decide I don't like the Jack LaLanne, I hope I can return it and then order the parts for my Champion.
