Best juicers in 2024 (2024)

If you want to boost your fruit and vegetable intake, you'll need one of the best juicers. Not only do they remove the solid content from your fresh produce and leave behind vitamin-dense, delicious drinks, but can be used to create nut milks and even soft-serve frozen desserts.

But with so many different types of juicers on the market, how do you know which one is suitable? First, you'll need to know which type you prefer. You can opt for the speed and convenience of a centrifugal juicer, which harness the same tech as the best blenders to shred fruits and vegetables before separating the solids from the liquids. Or there are masticating juicers, also known as cold press juicers, which mimic the motion of chewing to extract juice slowly, without damaging the fiber content of your produce. This leads to a more nutritious but also more pulp-heavy juice.

We've tested a range of juicers from the likes of Hurom, Breville, Tribest and Omega, to find out what came up tops. In our tests, we juiced a range of ingredients across several recipes, including oranges, apples, kale, beets, blueberries and strawberries. In each case, we scored the juice yield and made notes where any machines struggled — this was often the case with fibrous greens. During this process, we factored in the noise and design, considering the general ease of use and cleaning too.

To help you decide, we've compiled the best juicers right now, and which type of juicer to choose.

The best juicer you can buy

If price is no object, then the Hurom HAA Slow Juicer is the best juicer overall. This is the brand’s flagship model and our highest performer across the board. No matter which ingredient we threw at it, the yield was either the highest or one of the highest of any of the juicers we tested. Whether looking to make classic orange juice or a vegetable-packed green juice, customers will be impressed by the efficiency and great taste of everything this model produces. Not to mention, the HAA Slow Juicer looks particularly good and modern in any of the three shades available.

This level of performance does come at a high price, which will not be accessible to everyone. The extra components and nozzles also require a bit more focus to assemble than the simplest juicers available. But, it’s these same components which make it possible for the juicer to produce other recipes like ice cream, nut milks and tofu, making it a versatile addition to any kitchen.

Best budget slow juicer

The Cuisinart Easy Clean Slow Juicer is proof that a big kitchen appliance doesn’t need to be hidden away in a cabinet — not when it looks this good. Its small footprint ensures that it won’t take up too much space, and its sleek upright design means you won’t begrudge the space it does use. Despite its compact base, this machine still deploys masticating technology for a more efficient performance than other juicers in this price range, even when processing leafy greens. Be warned if you have overhead cabinetry, though, as this juicer is more than 18 inches tall.

It’s also the cheapest masticating model of any juicer we tested, which makes it a great entry point for those who want an upgrade in technology without spending hundreds of dollars. For $159.99, customers can extract higher yields (if not the highest possible), without needing to sacrifice visual appeal or ease of use. This balance of form and function should make up for the extra time you’ll need to spend preparing produce, so that it fits in the small feed chute.

Best centrifugal juicer

The Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer Extractor looks like it might struggle to compete with other juicers on the market, due to its slight size, simple design and sub-$100 price. However, it consistently produced some of the highest yields of any centrifugal juicer we tested and while it wasn’t as effective with leafy greens as the masticating models, it still performed surprisingly well and beat out juicers more than five times its price.

Many customers will appreciate the juicer’s extra large pulp container and wide feed chute, which are both easy to clean and efficient to use. However, It was prone to vibration and movement when initially turned on, due to its low weight, and was the loudest of any juicer we tested, reaching 91.3 dB. Still, we believe most people would happily accept a brief blare of noise in exchange for juicing efficiency at this very competitive price.

Best premium cold press juicer

It's an expensive option, but the Nama J3 Cold Press Juicer is the most user-friendly juicer our Homes Editor has tested. The J3 is a smaller and more portable alternative to Nama's much-loved J2 juicer, which allows you to add all of your ingredients in one go for hands-free slow juicing. In our tests, there was nothing this juicer could not handle. It made light work of carrot and ginger, and produced some of the creamiest nut milk we've tried.

Cleaning is also a breeze with this juicer, with its fully removable parts that can be rinsed after each use, and very few grooves for fiber to latch onto. You can choose from two filter sizes depending on your desired level of fiber, and the Nama recipe book provides an extensive list of recipes which we enjoyed sampling when testing.

Best for bulk juicing

The Breville Juice Fountain Elite is expensive for a centrifugal-style juicer, but it packs a punch with 1000 Watts of power. This helps it to process tougher items such as kale and carrots more easily than less expensive centrifugal models — all while retaining a simple design for efficient assembly and cleaning. What’s more, this Breville juicer includes a wide chute and large-volume containers, so that users can make vast amounts of juice with no problem at all.

Regular users will enjoy the ability to toggle between a low and high setting, depending on the ingredients they’re using, to ensure maximum extraction. The juicer can get loud though, reaching a volume of 87dB in our tests due to the 13,000 RPM motor in action, and our tests found that it didn’t produce quite as much juice as some high-end masticating models. So, it might not be the overall best juicer, but this is a reliable choice no matter what juice you’re making.

Best twin-gear juicer

The Tribest Greenstar Elite GSE-5000 is the most technically advanced of any juicers we tested and the only one to incorporate a twin-gear mastication system. The gears sit millimeters apart and counter-rotate so it can squeeze and crush the pulp simultaneously to get the best yield. While it’s slightly more complicated to put together the first time, you’re rewarded with high yields of juice which can be refrigerated for longer, thanks to reduced oxidation. This juicer had no problem with tough materials, making it the best juicer for anyone looking to juice a lot of leafy greens. It’s also very quiet (69.3 dB), comes with multiple cleaning tools and includes a high-quality glass juice jug.

You pay for this privilege: $599.95 is the joint-highest price of any juicer we tested, tied with the Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer. But, this includes a 12-year warranty and a series of extra components, which can be used to make nut butters, sorbets and sauces. And while the fully assembled juicer is rather big, this is also part of its charm — you really feel like you’re operating a premium design.

Best for convenience

At under $100, the Breville Juice Fountain Compact is the best juicer for those who value ease of use and convenience above all. The extra wide feed chute can accommodate whole fruits and therefore reduce prep time, while the simple three-part design ensures that assembly, disassembly and cleaning are done in a flash. Customers will therefore be able to complete the entire juicing process in a matter of seconds.

There are handicaps to this budget-friendly option, most notably its difficulty processing denser produce like kale. When we checked the pulp chute, we repeatedly found some whole, unprocessed pieces in the container. Yet somehow, the yields remained consistently high — impressively high for a centrifugal model. True, it reaches a loud volume of 84.2 dB, but the short juicing time means this is a minor inconvenience in an otherwise very efficient process.

Best horizontal juicer

The Kuvings Masticating Slow Juicer NJE-3580U channels the brand’s juicing expertise into an affordable, fun package that is more accessible than some other pricier options. While not cheap, the $299.95 price tag includes eight different nozzles for various processing functions, as well as a masticating design that made quick work of every ingredient we tested. These extra components can make cleaning less simple, but not problematically so, and while the yield wasn’t often in our top results, it was consistently around or above average.

Due to the horizontal design of the Kuvings Masticating Slow Juicer, it is a great option for anyone who doesn’t have much free vertical space in the kitchen. This juicer also packs up very compactly: the cord wraps up under the base, the handle falls flat and a cover protects the body of the machine. It may not look as polished as other models, but this is the best juicer for color selection, coming in a range of fun colors, instead of just the usual silvers and grays available on the market.

Best quality juicer

If your priority is quality that will last, and you’re happy to spend more upfront to achieve this, then the Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer may be the right choice for you. It is the most expensive of any juicer we tested at $599.99, tied with the Tribest Greenstar Elite, but the ten-year product warranty could make this a smart investment in the long-term. This latest model, the fifth generation of juicer from Kuvings, offers improved features like a flap-gate on the chute to protect children’s fingers and to minimize juice spray; a wider pulp chute for easier cleaning; and a decelerating gear to reduce noise and vibration.

As it’s also a masticating design, it tackled dense produce with no problem and the yields were consistently higher than some of the cheaper centrifugal juicers we tested. However, it could not compete with our highest-rated masticating juicer and was frustrating to assemble, due to requiring every component to line up just-so. Some might appreciate this extra safety precaution, though, and it would likely become less of a problem through repeated use.

Best juicer for warranty

The Omega J8006HDS is the best juicer for warranty length at15 years, making its mid-range price of $299.95 for a masticating juicer particularly appealing. It was also very effective on green juice recipes, impressively extracting almost 80% yield from an apple, kale and celery juice we tested. Unfortunately, it was unable to recreate these results with any of the other juices we tried, repeatedly hitting lower yields, despite having no problem processing tough items.

Users of this juicer will enjoy the quiet volume of just 71.7 dB and the low height of the machine; it will work great in any kitchen with overhead cabinets. While the volume of juice produced may be on the lower end, the low 80 RPM ensures minimal heat and therefore reduced risk of oxidation, so the final result should taste good. For 15 years of guaranteed juicing capability, this may be the right choice for some.

Best for practicality

The Nutribullet Juicer is one of the simplest juicers of any on the market, with a built-in pulp collector and sturdy compact design. This results in a light yet stable model, which can be assembled and disassembled quickly. The feed chute is three inches wide, accommodating a range of whole fruits and vegetables, while the juice jug comes with a practical lid. Speed and ease of use are some of the big benefits of the Nutribullet, which is priced affordably — under $100 at most retailers.

This low price does mean that you’re missing out on advanced extraction capabilities. We found that leafy greens and other tough vegetables were not efficiently juiced; the Nutribullet was much better suited to softer fruits, performing well on recipes like pineapple, mango and orange juice. For anyone who just wants to juice and go, focusing on flavor rather than nutrient extraction, this is a compelling option.

How we test

Millie Fender

Millie Fender is Senior Home Editor at Tom's Guide. She has been testing juicers and blenders for five years since starting as a Staff Writer at TopTenReviews in 2019.

Millie has tested a number of the juicers in our guide, including the Nama, Nutribullet, Breville and Hurom juicers.

Each juicer was put to the test against five different juicing recipes, in order to gauge how well it could process different densities and types of produce. We aimed to cover all the most popular juicing flavors, with a final selection of orange juice; pineapple, mango and orange juice; carrot, ginger and lemon juice; apple, kale and celery juice; and beetroot, blueberry and strawberry juice.

As we made each juice, we also assessed how loud the juicers were as they worked, the stability and size of the model, and the ease of the whole experience. Finally, we considered the clean-up process, including disassembly and reassembly, in order to get a full picture of how it would be to own and regularly use these units.

Test results

How to choose

Not every juicer is created equal. Before you check out our favorites, here are some things to bear in mind.

Centrifugal, masticating, or twin gear?

Most juicers fall into one of these three categories:

• Centrifugal juicers use a cutting disc with sharp blades to shred produce at high speeds, introducing higher levels of oxidation (10,000+ revolutions per minute). Not preferred for leafy greens. Loud. Less expensive.
• Masticating juicers (i.e., cold press) use an auger to slowly force fruit through a strainer (40 to 80 rpm). This process is much slower, but better for preserving flavor and nutrition. Produces roughly 30% higher yield than centrifugal juicers. Quieter. Expensive.
• Twin gear juicers (also considered cold press) use dual gears to push food through a strainer (60 to 120 rpm). High yield. Preserves flavor. Expensive.

For further info, check out our guide on masticating vs centrifugal juicer: which is best?

How many speeds?
The more speed settings a juicer has, the more user control it offers. Lower speeds are meant for soft greens and fruits (like spinach, oranges, plums, grapes, tomatoes); higher speeds are for hard fruits and veggies (like apples, carrots, celery).

What's the feed chute diameter?
The larger the feed chute, the less prep time you'll spend chopping groceries into smaller pieces. A chute diameter of 2 to 3 inches is common for cheaper models — but wider is always better.

What about noise pollution?
Not unlike your common blender, these machines can create quite the racket (particularly at higher speeds). But not all of them. Masticating juicers are quieter, grinding away at 60 decibels or less, which is roughly the volume of normal conversation.

How's the warranty?
Just like any other household appliance, it can be worthwhile to back up your juicer with a solid warranty. Not sure what parts are covered? A quick phone call to the manufacturer should clear everything up.

Save or splurge?
If juicing is a permanent fixture of your fitness routine, investing in a premium model might cost upward of $500. Wider feed chutes, multiple speed options and better-quality parts are all hallmarks of the more expensive machines. But if your juicing needs are casual, you can still try it out for less than $100.

When to replace

Most juicers come with a warranty which can last anywhere from 1-15 years, with premium models usually offering the longest times. Extended warranties are available, however we do not recommend purchasing one as the price of the warranty will likely exceed the cost of any repairs.

If you want your juicer to last longer, avoid overfilling it or trying to rush it — this will damage it. Use the supplied pusher to press the fruit or veg and don’t substitute anything else. Make sure all of the parts are clean and dry after each use to prevent it from clogging up. If your juicer breaks, you can have it assessed by a professional, although if the repairs cost more than half the value of a new juicer, just replace it.

Features to look out for

The latest juicers come with features which make them easier to use and clean. Wider feeding chutes are particularly useful as you can fit whole fruits into some, meaning you don’t have to pre-cut apples into segments. As mentioned earlier, juicers can be very difficult to clean, however some come with dishwasher-safe parts which make cleaning them much easier. Many of them also come with more compact designs as well, so they won’t take up as much countertop space.

It's important to remember that juicers are not the same as blenders — check out our guide on juicer vs blender for more info.
