Some people consider Ron Popiel a minor Deity. If you do you very possibly could be right. Come on look at the background here. Just like a website a saw I stay up late at night just to see Ron do his magic. I live for the words "Set it and (audience) Forget it". Is there anything that could be more pleasing than those words. I think not. There was a time when Ronco was selling a Juicer and me of course being the fan I am bought one. Let me tell you it works like a gem. I've never had any problems with it. That is all.
