Best centrifugal juicers according to redditors

This Breville is what I own. Very durable, I have never had an issue and I highly recommend it. I believe it is the top rated juicer on Amazon.


http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BJE200XL-Fountain-700-Watt-Extractor/dp/B000MDHH06/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376668016&sr=8-1&keywords=juicer

It depends on your juicing volume. We use a Sunkist J1 Commercial Electric Juicer but we juice a lot; 4 bars, dining room, 3 meals/day in a hotel. The Breville CPXL is an alternative for 1/3rd the cost; though I don't have any first-hand knowledge as to longevity. If you're squeezing grapefruits and oranges, you'll want a manual press at the very least. The Hamilton Beach 932 is the industry standard but other much less expensive options exist. The 932 is faster and easier to use but may wear out faster due to its gearsets, requiring replacement parts. Considering the minimal cost, it is imperative that you keep a hand press or two around in case your primary juicer commits harakiri. Norpro and Amco both make excellent units. For less than the cost of the Norpro, you can get both Amco's orange and lemon/lime presses.

We juice daily. We also have a centrifugal juicer for pineapple and other harder fruits/vegetables. We mix 1 part fresh pineapple juice with 3 parts canned, unsweetened, not-from-concentrate pineapple juice. Except for the fancy bars primarily, few have switched to fresh pineapple juice. The good canned stuff is generally perfectly fine.

~Good luck!

This one looks pretty nice.

Hamilton beach JUICER

I bought this a month ago and it's been good. If you make more than 30oz at a time it may not be best since pulp basket needs to be emptied after 30oz. Very easy to clean. I rinse the 3 parts and it takes less than a minute to clean. I put everything in it and it doesn't slow the motor down at all. http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BJE200XL-Fountain-700-Watt-Extractor/dp/B000MDHH06/ref=sr_1_1/182-9819861-5952403?ie=UTF8&qid=1426189324&sr=8-1&keywords=breville+700w+juicer

I bought the Jack Lalanne Power Juicer link. I got it at a garage sale for $5. I had to do a small repair on it. It does what it does very well, but I almost never use it because there is so much cleanup involved. I'm not sure if that is common for most juicers, as it is my first one.

For under $100 this is your best bet:
http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BJE200XL-Fountain-700-Watt-Extractor/dp/B000MDHH06/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409235851&sr=8-1&keywords=juicer

But like others have said, spend a bit more and it'll pay off in the long run. I personally have an Omega NC800 that I purchased from Bed Bath and Beyond with a 20% off coupon for $263.99 & it includes a 15 year warranty. Additionally it'll produce a higher juice yield & higher quality juice on most things which saves me money on produce in the long run.

Don't make juice for more than 24 hours in advance, it will go bad because it loses nutrients. Why is this?

**Once you blend or juice your produce it start to lose its nutrients pretty fast due to oxidation. Juice citrus with whatever you juicing to preserve it. Store it in a mason jar and fill it all the way to the top if your going to drink it later.*

Make sure that you have at least 2 speeds for your juicer. Some fruits will get blended to all hell and you won't get the juice you need. Is this true?

I can't really comment on a blender because I have a shitty one. I would recommend if you have to money to get a Vitamix, I heard great things about it.

Hand wash your juicer. But how often?
I hand wash it every time I juice, I don't know if I can put it in the dishwasher though. Its super easy and doesn't take that long to rinse it out and wash it in the sink. I would probably let it soak in the sink with a little bit of bleach if your using it every day probably once every three months.

A blender might be best for fruits. Is this true?

I don't really think so, your going to be getting a lot of fiber with blending though

Also, what kind of a juicer should I get? I was thinking it would be best to try a cheap one from a place like Target first. If I enjoy juicing, then I'll invest into a better one.

If your going to go cheap get this one
http://www.amazon.com/Breville-JE98XL-Fountain-850-Watt-Extractor/dp/B003R28HWQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368770188&sr=8-1&keywords=breville+juicer

If you have the money get this one
http://www.discountjuicers.com/omegavrt400.html
or
http://www.amazon.com/Breville-800JEXL-Fountain-1000-Watt-Extractor/dp/B0002VAFVG/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1368770188&sr=8-4&keywords=breville+juicer

The Breville's are high speed blenders and will create a lot of foam, but it will juice produce really fast. It also wont get most of the juice out of leafy greens.

The Omega is a slow juicer. You're going to have to spend some time cutting your produce in smaller pieces.

If you want to see both juicers in action check out this channel
https://www.youtube.com/user/rawfoods

Can you guys help me out? I've been searching this subreddit for awhile. Also, this is my first post. So, sorry for the formatting and possible grammer/spelling issues.
I would also recommend to strain your juice when your done, it makes a world of a difference. Also check out https://www.youtube.com/user/FullyRawKristina for ideas to add more produce in your life.**

I bought one similar to [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-Mouth-Extractor-67650/dp/B000FHQJ6C) and really like it. Doesn't work so great for the more soft and "juicy" fruits and veggies so I prefer to blend those, but works well for things like carrots, apples, and celery.

blending and juicing are different:

http://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-10183/juicing-vs-blending-infographic.html

With a ninja or magic bullet, you would be blending making smoothies not juice. If that's what you're going for these would work.

It sounds like though you want to juice since you reference juice cleanses. For that, you will need a juicer not a blender. With that said, there are 2 types of juicers: centrifugal (faster) & masticating (slower). Here is a good link that describes the differences:

http://www.forkandbeans.com/2013/07/02/guide-to-juicing/

What price range are you looking to stay in? If you have some time to shop around, you can look for some deals for a Breville juicer that has a really small model for $99.95 on Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BJE200XL-Fountain-700-Watt-Extractor/dp/B000MDHH06/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1382669605&sr=8-3&keywords=breville

I will say that although a lower priced juicer will save you money up front, it will end up costing you more money in the long run when it is not yielding as much juice from your produce and fruits.

I understand that it may not be feasible but we got a fairly decent deal on an Omega 8006 ($260) and the pulp is very dry and it is great with greens. I know if I shopped around a little more I could have found a better deal but wanted to get started on juicing right away so I would definitely recommend in researching what type of juicer would be the best fit for you and then looking around for the best deals. Macy's will often have 40% off juicers. Target, Best Buy, Kohl's, Bed Bath & Beyond all offer price matching and from my personal experience I have been able to price match and combine store coupons. For example if Best Buy is having a sale, I would take the ad to Kohl's and they would match the price and then I would use a 30% off Kohl's coupon so that is something you can look into too if you have some time to wait around for sales.

Look on craigslist. People tend to go through juicing phases so there are often many bargains. I got this one http://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-Mouth-Extractor-67650/dp/B000FHQJ6C for $20 and I've been quite happy with it.

I bought the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juice Extractor from Walmart for $50. It's plastic, but works very well and is easy to clean. Plus, extractor juicers give the best yield.

Found it on Amazon here

My dad has used his Jack Lalanne power juicer every day for the 4 years and it is still going strong.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00472MGRW/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_mwSIwbCHZZ06D

It does press very nicely, you just have to make sure the melon is absolutely ripe! Usually, the smell is a good indicator.

I use a breville juice- seriously, my best friend! https://www.amazon.com/Breville-JE98XL-Fountain-850-Watt-Extractor/dp/B003R28HWQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1504026208&sr=1-1&keywords=breville+juicer

In my two hobbies where there are cheapo components and high pried. I always regret going full cheapo. Though I got this juicer for $100 and I've been loving it.

Most of the nutrients are in the juice, not the pulp (that's your fiber).

If you want none of the pulp removed, use a blender to make smoothies. If you want just a little pulp, use a juicer and mix in some of the ejected pulp (as juicers remove all pulp).

I'd recommend a Breville juicer, like this or this. They're probably the best centrifugal juicers available in your price range.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003R28HWQ

I HIGHLY recommend just juicing yourself. It would have to be cost efficient.

This one is great for the price.

Good luck with your brew man! Just helped my housemate with his pumpkin ale wert today.

I've only had one juicer but I've had it for four years or so now. It's a Breville juice fountain like this: http://www.amazon.com/Breville-JE98XL-Fountain-850-Watt-Extractor/dp/B003R28HWQ but I found a refurbished version for $50 less, at $100.

Its easy to clean. I just have a stiff brush for the grinder/auger whatever. And a sponge for the rest. I use it for about 5 months out if the year.

I'm looking at this one right now.

this is the juicer i have bought.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0007XHGHA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

i am very new to the juicing thing. dont know too much about it. watched that juicing documentary where the guy does a 60 day juice fast.
thought i would implement the juicer into my diet first. make a load of the recipes ive seen. and probably make a few myself and then go on a 15 day juice fast, then if i decide to go further who knows maybe 60 days... only time will tell.
im a kind of all or nothing person.
dont know if i will be able to not have weed during the experiance who knows... but friends said they would give me weed leafs to juice too, extremely good for you! have a look into it if your interested. its basically using the plant as a vegtable.
i have an vaporising cig thing too that i will use so no smoking at all during the process. although quiting weed for the process would be great. i do smoke far too much of it.

I recommend this juicer and this blender. Both are easy to clean.

You might also find biobags useful for juicing. They make the cleanup process faster, and prevent spillage from contaminating your living place with rotten smells.

For recipes, have a look at this juice recipe , and this smoothie recipe.

Be careful juicing too much fruit. Juicing removes fiber and will make fruit juices increase blood sugar significantly.

I ALWAYS cut myself when peeling potatoes and other foods. Peelers have just hated me my whole life for some reason :( I have one shaped like this. Makes it way harder to cut myself.

Let's do it in the kitchen.

I've been trying to eat healthy with my SO and so I have been looking into juicing, this juicer has pretty good reviews, but a little pricey.

Thanks for the contest :)

This Juicer.
My wife and I are just generally trying to be healthier since we found out we are expecting our first child in January!
I would be perfectly fine if i never received it!
Thanks for the contest!!!

*edit = I forgot word.

No problem! Some people there go all-out with juice fasts and such, but I'm just looking to get more fruits and veggies into my terrible diet, and they're a friendly bunch.

(btw, I went with this juicer when it was on sale for $125)

I really want a juicer in my kitchen. I want to juice all the things!

Let's do it in the kitchen.

I just purchased this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-HR1861-Whole-Juicer-Aluminium/dp/B0007XHGHA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371820842&sr=8-1&keywords=juicer

I've made green juice every day for the past week, and it's working well. Luckily, they introduced food waste disposal in my apartment complex the day it arrived (Edinburgh). I had a cheaper one in the US back in 2007, and this one is definitely easier to clean and yields more juice in comparison. That said, there's still some water left in the pulp when I throw it out, so a higher price juicer might pay off in the long run if you're going to be juicing a lot. Hope this helps.

http://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-67650A-Mouth-Extractor/dp/B009RVA2QA

This is what I use. Cheap and reliable.

I have a 700 watt Breville. It works great in my experience. Once you get the hang of it cleanup becomes a breeze. My only issue is that it's rather loud. Oh, and it's advertised as mobile I think but it's really not--I don't think any juicers are, then again.

http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BJE200XL-Fountain-700-Watt-Extractor/dp/B000MDHH06

Diamond Engagement ring, $12,000+

Item that doesn't need to be over $10,000! This short hair wig made from human hair is $30,000+ Now, after buying a wig for my mother, I know these are pricey- but nothing worth $30,000 and that is for damn sure.

An item on my wish list!

Over 10k? Fancy!

I'd personally go for the slow juicer with that much budget.

If you want an entry-level juicer just to test the juicing waters, get the one
that I still use to this day:

https://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-040094922635-67608A-Electric/dp/B00JQ485JO/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=hamilton+beach+juicer&qid=1574749009&sr=8-3

I remember buying it years ago because it was #2 at Consumer Reports.
Now it's at #5-7 out of 20 tested.

Years later, even though their juicer ratings haven't been updated, on that
Hamilton Beach, they say:

"Convenience: This model was found to be Very Good for convenience,
based on feed tube size, anti drip spout, juice container brush, etc.

Juicing performance: This model was Very Good for juicing performance,
based on the amount of apple juice produced.

Noise: This model was judged Good for how noisy the juicer is running
empty for 30 seconds.

Ease of use: This model was judged Very Good for how easy the juicer
was to assemble, disassemble and clean."

I'm new to juicing, so this is what I use for now. If you have an extra $50, you can also try this.

The amazon product page says it's a centrifugal juicer.

http://www.amazon.com/Breville-JE98XL-Fountain-850-Watt-Extractor/dp/B003R28HWQ

I have this one
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005YROHKS/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 So centrifugal i guess.

The L'Equip is supposedly a lot better than anything else in that price range because it uses all metal internal parts and I wish I had bought that when I got into juicing. The one I bought when I first started was the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth. That one is always in the top 2 most popular on Amazon and it is currently $59. I would wait to buy it as the price usually is more like $40 to $50. It sometimes makes chunky or foamy juice that needs to be filtered, but once you filter it (I use paper towels) it is just as good as from a premium juicer. I've had my Big Mouth for over a year and have done at least 15 gallons of juice (mainly apples) and it is still in great shape.

Thanks, /u/lilsavito! Happy to be of service:)

I started Adderall for the first time just a few months ago - I was already eating well and the adderall wiped out my appetite but got super-thirsty so juicing is a great solution. You'll feel physically a lot better when you do it. Make sure to mix superfood-veggies/low-sugar fruit and go easy on high-sugar fruit.

Here's the juicer I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZDNKSS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's very easy to use and clean (important!) and my only issue came after I dropped the lid on the floor and there was a minor crack, still works fine. Really juices well for the price.

I'm working on a simpler, at-a-glance version of my on days / off days list - will post it here soon, hope folks continue to find it helpful.

Regarding my routine: in actuality I reliably take the Emergen-C / Fish Oil Pills / Vitamin D / Melatonin pretty well. I do believe they've helped with my energy levels and sleep regulation. I DONT exercise as much as I want to - I am convinced exercise will be super helpful but I also have a bout of depression so am working on it....but I despise exercise in general, so this list helps those who also despise it - the key is to make it as easy to do as possible so you can't talk yourself out of doing it, and to honestly tell yourself "well done!" after trying it, even if you only worked out for a minute the first time, it's a huge help to pat yourself on the back and encourage yourself for any effort you're making.

My productivity has been touch and go - biggest problem for me is making sure I'm not on the computer (reddit, surfing web) when my meds kick in cause they make me hyperfocus and spend HOURS online doing nothing else. The only way it helps me get things done (cleaning, errands, projects, work, etc) is to stand up and tell myself i'm not sitting down again till I start part of my project. I did this last night with deep cleaning my apartment and once I made myself get started, I worked for like 6 hrs no problem.

Other people have mentioned L-theanine - it's supposed to be great with increasing motivation/decreasing depressive symptoms. Here's the kind I got based on a recommendation: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TXY32FY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Will update to let you know if that helped! You have any tips to offer?

I'm always curious to know why people don't like the special offers. They never show up while you're actually doing something, only on the lock screen and a special tab on your homescreen. Amazon occasionally has some really great deals with those as well.

In the past year, I have gotten a brand new Cuisinart Juicer for $20, normally $120, a Bluetooth speaker for $20, normally $125. Such great deals

I have this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009RVA2QA/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Seems to just spit out the grass like a lawn mower.

Started to look into it and saw some hand grinders

I bought this one. Its amazing. I can put like 4 carrots at the same time or 3 small apples one on top of the other. Cleaning isn't too hard.

Jucing is amazing if you don't mind the hunger you sometimes get ohh and having to constantly go to the restroom. When I juice I illiterately lose a pound a day. Even if I have a non american size meal in the evning..

As far as affordable ones that work well, this is what I have: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FHQJ6C/

Pros: Strong motor (1hp!), easy to clean, wide mouth feeding tube, cheap!

Cons: centrifugal design isn't as efficient as masticating juicers

I have this one and I love it: Breville BJE200XL Compact Juice Fountain 700-Watt Juice Extractor. I chose it because at the time it had the most reviews on Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000MDHH06/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000MDHH06&linkCode=as2&tag=om22046-20&linkId=AZRWWT6F4N7L2WEX

I juice celery. Usually whole bunches, but scraps work, too. Throw whatever random fruits / vegetables you have in a batch. It's always interesting, different, and healthy. Also, you can make vegetable broth if you don't want to drink it.

Nope, mine isn't that model. Mine is http://www.amazon.com/Breville-JE98XL-Fountain-850-Watt-Extractor/dp/B003R28HWQ

ARE WE LOSING NUTRIENTS???

Ah well, i still love it.

Yep, the juicer separates the pulp from the juice. I used a Breville Compact Juice Fountain last year for about 25 or so gallons of cider. This year I used Breville JE98XL for about 10 gallons. Both work equally well. I'm sure cheaper juicers work fine too.


I've found that I'm able to juice 5 gallons in one hour. The juicing disk and pulp have to be cleaned often or else efficiency goes down. Also cleaning gives the motor time to rest.

You got this one I just paid $99 for $40?

Buy your own juicer. Go easy on the fruits, as /u/kuriye mentions... LOTS of sugar.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003R28HWQ

As far as 'cleansing' goes.. don't read too much into that. You're basically just being healthier. One or two juices a day and a solid meal for dinner is just fine.

I juiced straight for a month, didn't lose much weight, but felt better overall. Dark circles under the eyes dissipated and such. Now I'll juice like three time a week or so. A big 'ol 48oz juice.

at amazon its for $149.00 @ http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CJE-1000-1000-Watt-5-Speed-Extractor/dp/B0030EH7S6

use a juicer like this one and all the seeds will be gone

Thank you sir. Would you be willing to give any input on this juicer? I'm looking to spend around $100 and that one by far has the best reviews on Amazon, but of course there's also quite a few 1 and 2 star reviews that worry me. Any thoughts?

EDIT: Also I just bought a bunch of fresh spinach juice (before I realized how quickly it goes bad) that I can't drink until Monday. Would it be OK to freeze it in a Nalgene or is that going to destroy it's nutrients?

$40 shipped for a juicer is about as low a price you're going to find. Check out the reviews on Amazon before buying. Reviews look very mixed.

I purchased THIS juicer for $99. That was my budget and I think it's quality for the price. If you can spare more I'd go with the same brand but a model higher that can hold more pulp. For inspiration and more info I recommend the documentary Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, which is on Netflix Instantly. I saw it due to it being recommended here on Reddit so much. I also recommend you youtube "Dave the Raw Food Trucker" who beat cancer and diabetes and extreme obesity. He recently survived a heart attack. Very inspiring.

I don't know if you've purchased yet but here BLACK+DECKER JE2200B 400-Watt Fruit and Vegetable Juice Extractor with Custom Juice Cup, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003ZDNKSS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_K6-yybW44CHN2 is a good one (price/review wise) that I ordered as a beginner juicer.. Anyone have this?

I'll go with it til it dies out and then upgrade to a Breville :-)

I just bought the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer from amazon. It got a good rating for the price on consumer reports as well.

Also, breville's customer service has been amazing, in my experience.
