We were also able to wash everything by hand in under five minutes, including scrubbing out the filter screen.

The machine itself is very simple to assemble, use, and take apart for cleaning: All the removable parts can go in the dishwasher. The juice from the Magic Bullet Mini Juicer goes straight into an included 16-ounce cup with a twist-on travel lid, which makes it easy to take on the go. (If you want to get hardcore, you could even squeeze the pulp in a strainer bag to extend the yield.) It did leave somewhat wet pulp, which means there was some unextracted juice left behind, but the generous 52-ounce pulp bin held everything easily. In testing, we got better-than-expected performance, even with vegetable juices: It was able to handle beets, carrots, ginger, and orange kale, lemon, cucumber, and apple and even straight celery for celery juice. It's a no-frills machine, but its 400-watt motor and 2-inch feed tube can make short work of most anything.

The compact Magic Bullet Blender is a great value for making smoothies, and its miniature counterpart similarly impresses. (The brand also recommends soaking in lemon juice and water periodically to help remove built-up residue.) We needed several rounds of scrubbing and brushing to get it completely clean. However, the mesh filter screen can't go in the dishwasher, and it's tough to scrub out all the little bits that get stuck in there.

It did a great job with fruits and harder veggies, but it had trouble with leafy greens. It's also very powerful for its size, able to handle most things without even needing the tamper to push them into the blade. It has a 3-inch feed tube that can handle a whole apple, so you'll hardly need to up your fruits and vegetables before juicing. Small and affordable, this centrifugal juicer from Breville is a great value pick. While this isn’t the quietest juicer on the market, it is a true multitasking appliance and a cinch to clean.īreville's Juice Fountain Compact Is a Powerful Entry-level Juicer It even has a homogenizer attachment to make frozen desserts and baby food. Thanks to a range of attachments, it can also be used to make nut butter, grind coffee or spices, mince herbs, and extrude pasta. The Omega also does so much more than juice. Its small feed chute means you have to cut ingredients into little pieces before juicing, but the performance makes that worth the extra effort. As a masticating juicer, this machine operates at a slow 80 RPM, avoiding the flavor-destroying heat that rapidly spinning blades can generate. It can easily tackle tougher fruits and vegetables to produces a delicious cup of pulp-free juice you'll want to drink right one the spot. This machine extracts the juice twice-once during the crushing process and then again from the pulp. The Omega Nutrition Center may have a larger countertop footprint than vertical juicers, but its unique design gives it an edge over the competition.
