HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST JUICER
With a wide range of juicers on the market, it can be tricky to know which one will suit your needs and lifestyle. So before you buy, here are a few things to consider before making a purchase. These include:
Type
There are three main types of juicer with different benefits. The slow (or masticating) juicers typically work by a slow, gentle process to extract and preserve nutrients better, with less heat. Centrifugal juicers are much faster, and able to extract whole foods at a higher speed, while citrus juicers are designed for smooth and hassle-free citrus drinks.
Size and storage
Consider how much space you have and whether you can accommodate a juicer. A quality juicer and attachments can take up space on your countertop. So if you have limited space, it’s best to opt for a compact juicer.
Care
Cleaning a juicer can be a messy job, so it’s worthwhile looking at how easy the unit is to clean. Most juicers have detachable parts that can be easily rinsed or placed in the dishwasher.
WHAT IS THE BEST JUICER?
With all of these in mind, if you want the best juicer that has everything you would need, the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer is a great pick. It can extract juice from whole foods in just minutes, saving you on prepping time. This is the best juicer for convenience, it’s easy to clean and affordable, which makes it value for money. Handy for someone who wants to rustle up a quick, refreshing juice on the go. Our top pick overall is the Hurom HP Slow Juicer. It's worth the splurge for serious juice lovers.
