How to Choose the Best Cold Press Juicer

When you’re ready to invest in a cold press juicer, the model you choose must be high quality and easy to use. Ideally, it will extract as much liquid as possible from fruits and vegetables, clean up easily and require minimal prep work. It should also run quietly and be relatively easy to use, with few parts that can break or get stuck.

In our Retail Express, we found the Hurom H400 to be a great fit for people who want a quiet machine that’s capable of handling leafy greens and citrus fruits without leaving behind a lot of pulp. It’s compact and sleek, with a wide chute that can accommodate whole fruits and veggies without pre-chopping, and it’s easy to clean. The only downside is that some ingredients, like oranges and carrots, needed a little more pushing or reversing than with other juicers to fully move through the machine.

Another top-rated option is the Omega JC2022GY11, which has an extra-large hopper that can hold whole produce, cutting down on prep time and making it easier to juice large quantities for a day or two. It’s quiet and easy to use, and it’s available in a range of bright colors. It was created in memory of a young girl who started a lemonade stand to raise money for childhood cancer, so $1 of every sale goes to her foundation.

If you’re looking for a quick and powerful centrifugal juicer, try the Breville Juice Fountain Plus XL. It can handle the toughest fruits and vegetables, and it’s surprisingly quiet for such a fast juicer. It’s also easy to clean, with the sharp blade requiring only a swift rinse and no scrubbing.
