Best juicers to buy: our tried and tested guide

Super-sized and super smart, Sage SJB815BSS the 3X Bluicer™ Pro Juicer is an intelligent and innovative piece of high-quality design. Built to last, this juicer will extract maximum juice with minimum fuss. Featuring the brand's Kinetix® contoured Blade and Bowl system, it contains a 88mm extra wide chute for shortened prep time. Cold Spin Technology extracts fresh juice straight into a high-capacity 1.5L blender jug,

Our review: "Our tester was thrilled with the look of this model and its swish brushed stainless steel finish, and while it comes with a blending attachment, it wasn’t as bulky as she thought. The system was easy to set up and came with various speed settings– five in total – that can be easily regulated as you juice certain items. It was especially good for smaller quantities as there’s a straight-to-glass option. The results were great, although there is quite a bit of froth, which, once cooled in the fridge, disappeared. The LCD controls are easy to understand and aren’t as complicated as our tester first thought. Switching from juicer to blender was simple, making this great for smoothies, and the fact that it has two options makes the price justifiable."

Available in black or brushed aluminium, you can make up to 1.5 litres of juice yield in one go with this compact juicer, and it won't take up too much room on your kitchen worktop either. The sieve section is designed for easy cleaning, and all the pulp collects in one place, so not too much scrubbing is required. You could even save the pulp and use it for soups if you want to.

Our review: "One of the best things about this juicer was the size. It’s compact, lightweight, and easy to store, but doesn’t compromise on results. Our tester loved the ease of setting up this machine, and the simple one-speed setting ensured the glass of juice was ready almost instantly, with a good smooth consistency. It has an inter-related pulp container and a polished sieve, which contains the pulp and makes it easy to clean. Our tester did say it took longer than suggested to clean and recommends that, for best results to, pop the parts in the dishwasher. One downside is the noise– it’s quite loud for such a small model. Overall, though, a great model that gives quick results."

The Smeg 50's Retro Style Citrus Juicer is a stylish and functional juicer that is great for making fresh citrus juice at home for cooking dishes or fruit juices. It has a classic 50's design that will look great in any kitchen, and it is made from high-quality materials that will last for years to come.

Our review: "If we were purely going on looks and style, then this would be the winner! But while it produces some good results and is easy to use, it’s a little limiting in what it can actually do –it’s just a citrus juicer. The electric juicer starts to spin as soon as pressure is applied and quickly drains all the juice. The non-drip spout keeps all the juice in place until you’re ready to pour yourself a drink. All the attachments are easy to clean, although our tester found removing the juicer a little cumbersome, but even just a quick wash under the tap worked a treat. If anything, the juicer is quite large, but it does come in a variety of colours and has a dust cover for when it’s not in use. Great for producing good-quality juice but a bit limited in function."

Nutribullet is known for its blenders, so it's no surprise the juicer is a fantastic choice too. Designed for efficiency and convenience, this juicer has two speeds to handle all types of produce, hard or soft. It's compact with a streamlined design and it's easy to clean too thanks to the dishwasher-safe parts. It's simple to use and fast which makes getting your five-a-day as easy as possible.

Our review: "Nutribullet is known for its blending abilities and this is a dream to use – it’s quick and gives great results. It comes with a central column for extraction and a central pulp container, which makes it easy to use. It
has two speeds and comes with a handy recipe book, which tells you the best speeds for various fruits and veg.

"Plus it even tells you what to do with leftover pulp! Like most models, it’s quite noisy, especially on apples, and our tester needed to add some force when pushing through the machine. But the resulting juice was amazing and had a good output, so our tester didn’t feel like she was pulping for ages to get a single glass. There was very little froth and wastage, and the cleaning process was simple – most parts are dishwasher safe and it comes with a brush."

If your whole family is getting in on the action, you can't go wrong with Braun J300 Spin Juicer. With two speeds for soft and hard fruits, it's quick and easy to use with an anti-splash spout to ensure all the precious juice lands in the glass. It has four-way safety so you won't need to worry about little fingers getting hurt, and the combination of foam separator and stainless steel micro-mesh sieve ensures foam and pulp are removed - perfect for those looking for a smooth consistency.

Our review: "This was our tester’s first experience using a juicer and, overall, she was very happy. It’s a great choice if
you want to make juices for all the family in the morning because it has a large capacity jug. It’s also quick and easy to use because it has a sizable chute, which is wide enough for big chunks of veggies and even some whole fruits, so it saves lots of time chopping.

"Due to the nifty foam separator, your juices are left froth-free, which our tester’s children loved – and sets it apart from other models. The only downfall our tester noticed was it was a little noisy in the morning, but it was still well worth it because it’s so quick to use and easy to clean. It’s a great choice for lazy juicers!"

A bestseller on Amazon, it's no wonder this powerful juicer by Fridja is so popular. Updated in 2020, this whole fruit juicer cold presses fruits and vegetables with little to no waste. A large 78mm feeding chute means you spend less time chopping and preparing. The latest iteration includes an additional sieve to remove any pulp from the juice. Bits in or out, you decide.

Customer review: "This juicer combines both looking great and functioning really well. It's not loud like my old juicer, it's quiet and powerful. The spinning blades chew through hard fruits and vegetables without an issue and gives really dry pulp for minimum waste. Gets loads of juice out and is easy to clean. It's a well-designed machine, which looks amazing in black stainless steel. The tilting feeding chute is good too. Love it!"

Using cold press technology, Juice Expert 3 has shown to retain more vitamins and minerals alongside extracting higher yield with lower oxidation. The Magimix Juice Expert 3 is the ultimate juicer taking up little worktop space but containing a powerful and versatile machine.

Customer review: “This juicer from Magimix is well worth the money. The amount of juice that came out of this machine was far superior to my previous juicer. It has a press inside that pushes out every last drop of juice which is very impressive.

“Love the citrus press as there's no need to peel the fruit first, and you can make juice with or without the pulp, although I always make juice without the bits. Compared with my old juicer it also has fewer bits to clean which is great, and it doesn't take up as much room on my work surface either.”

Customer review: “This juicer looks amazing for the price I bought it for. It wasn't hard at all to put it together and I didn't even need to use instructions (which, by the way, were written in clear English).

“This slower juicer is comparatively easier to clean than the others, without loud noise when used. The juice, in the end, is pretty good. A full cup (300ml) of cucumber juice can be made within a minute and you will be surprised by how much juice it can make out of one cucumber. All in all a lovely addition to our kitchen.”
