Home » Guidelines To Choosing A Juicer

If you haven't heard it yet, choosing a juicer is like choosing a car – it's all about performance!

choosing a juicerThe shiny look and feel is but a small consideration (not really when it comes to cars;), the important thing is it doesn't stall on you or worse, break down in a month or two. Well, a quality juicer should last way more than that but if you're buying a cheap juicer then by all means, lower down your expectations though I wouldn't really advice it unless you're completely new to juicing and is just starting out.

As mentioned, focus on performance; never mind the tempting features and ad ons, just make sure it would last a lifetime (or almost), if not, see to it that the manufacturer has an iron-clad warranty that you could take advantage of.

There are many different types of juicer machines; some are built for fast juicing of solid fruits and vegetables which is popularly called “centrifugal juicer”, another one type is one that uses a slow “cold processing” of fruits and vegetables which is called the “masticating juicer” type.

There are other types of course that we need not mention in this article since it's an entirely different topic and is lengthily covered in an article specifically written for juicer machines.

When choosing a juicer, the first thing you need to ask yourself is if where you would be using the juicer. Of course, you'll be using it to juice fresh fruits and vegetables but it's important to know what types of fruits and vegetables you would most-likely be juicing as using the wrong juicer for tough jobs may shorten its lifespan.

Important Points to Consider When Choosing a Juicer


Ease of Use

Juicers are created to make the consumption of live nutrients from fruits and vegetables easy so there's no point in buying a juicer that you can't figure where the start button is.

Ease of Cleaning

As you'll most-likely be juicing everyday, get a juicer that's dishwasher-safe or at least one that makes cleaning a chore.

Juicing Efficiency

Juice yield from fruits and vegetables differ from juicer to juicer so choose one that gives the highest juice yield. This one's tricky as you wouldn't really know unless you've actually used the juicer yourself. One way around this is to borrow a unit from a friend and see for yourself. If you don't have friends who owns your potential juicer model, you can read reviews from juicer reviews website and get a bird's eye-view of its quality, performance, and yield from our reviews.

The reason why you should know the juicing efficiency of a juicer is very important as it will save you money in the long run - the more pure extract you get from fruits and vegetables, the more savings you get out of every juicing batch.

Pricing

This is self-explanatory and highly-dependent on your budget and preference though there are high-priced juicers that doesn't deliver the results promised so you have to be careful!

Warranty

This is one of the most important points you must take into consideration when choosing a juicer especially if you're planning to juice on a daily basis. Most juicer manufacturers do provide lifetime warranty on certain parts and motor so make sure you take advantage of this. We've actually encountered some companies whose customer support really sucks that it takes forever to claim your warranty in case your juicer breaks down.

Juicing Capacity

Just choose a juicer that can juice enough produce for your need. If you're juicing for one or two people, you won't need a humongous juicer to get healthy but if you're juicing for a family of five; you might want to choose juicers with bigger loading capacity.

Consumer Reputation

This is specially applicable when you're choosing a juicer with a high price-tag. Just do some searches on consumer reviews for the juicer model to read about the experiences of others who have actually used the juicer. Sites like amazon and product reviews sites have features where people can write about their experience. Taking the time to read on what others are saying about the juicer can save you a material sum of money.

Capability for Continuous Juicing

There are two parts that you must check to see if whether or not the juicer can juice continuously. One is the motor, small motors, specially with centrifugal juicers tend to overheat when used continuously. Second is the pulp disposal/collection; most juicers have pulp bins to collect the extracted pulp. While there are some juicer models that doesn't have a pulp-ejecting feature, this means that the pulp stays within the juicer and when it gets filled-up, you have to stop juicing to manually remove the pulp.

Choosing A Juicer Shortcut

If you're not familiar with the different types of juicers and brands, choosing the right juicer for your use can be quite a challenge so here's a quick reference guide to make sure you're getting a great quality juicer. The easiest way is to choose from any of the following brands:

This is not a complete list of course, but you can't go wrong with these brands not unless if you're looking to buy a cheap juicer. In saying this, please be aware that juicers from any of these brands doesn't come at a low price. As they say, quality comes with price. I know this is not entirely true to all products, even juicers but the above listed brands plus some other few forms the elite brands in juicer manufacturing.
