Best Juicers Guide

This is a short guide on what to look out for when looking at the best juicers to find one that is suitable for you.

Things to take into consideration:

What will I be juicing? This might be an important question to determine which is the right juicer for you. There are three types of juicers; citrus, centrifugal and masticating. Citrus juicers are used to juice citrus fruits whereas centrifugal juicers have blades/shredder discs which are used to extract juice from a variety of fruit and vegetables. The third type masticating juicers are excellent for leafy greens because they crush and knead the produce to a pulp before squeezing out the juice. Masticating juicers are excellent because it is harder to extract juice from leafy greens in comparison to other vegetables.

Is the juicer easy to clean? My personal favourite are Breville juicers because they are good to clean in comparison to other juicers on the market. But the main thing is to really do your research with any juicer you are interested in and find out how easy it is to clean the juicer preferably before you buy it. 

How noisy is the juicer? Sometimes this can be quite hard to know before actually buying a juicer. However reviews on Amazon are a great way to find out because people that have bought the juicers generally comment on the noise and other features of the juicers that are sold on there.

You may also want to consider whether the juicer comes with a warranty.

It is important to give the above considerations enough thought, because you want the Best Juicer for you! You don't just want another kitchen appliance that is going to sit in your kitchen cupboard collecting dust...
