Best Juicer

The best juicer for you can be hard to find amongst all the options available, I hope this page helps you to decide.

There are certainly a wide range of juicers available now and it can be daunting to try and choose one.

Keep in mind that the best juicer for you is going to be the one that you use.  No juicer, no matter how great, will be any good if it only sits on a shelf or countertop unused.

Why Juice?

If you are reading this page, I imagine you already know the benefits of juicing.  You are here because you know juicing is great for you and you want information on how to find the best juicer.

I won't go into detail here about juicing but you can read more about the benefits of juicing, here.

Below I will talk about the juicer that we use as well as two other juicers.  These are not the only great juicers out there - there are many - these are just three I chose to write about here.

Green Power Juicer

(The Juicer We Use)

We have been using a Kempo Green Power juicer for years.  I bought this juicer back in 1998.

It is a great machine that we use daily (sometimes more than once a day) and we have never had a problem with it.

We make a green juice every morning and during our 10 Day Juice Feast we made 3 green juices a day using this beautiful machine.

Again, the best juicer is going to be the one that you use regularly.

Our juice comes out great with no pulp and clean up is pretty simple and quick.  It comes with a pulp adjuster to allow you to have no pulp in your juice or to adjust how much pulp you would like.

This is a twin gear masticating juicer which works at a low temperature to keep enzymes and nutrients intact.  It also has the added bonus of a magnetized cup for collecting the juice.

I love this machine and highly recommend it.  It is expensive but all good juicers are and you get what you pay for.

When I think that this machine has lasted 15 years (and is still going strong) and when I think about all the health benefits and preventative measures we enjoy from juicing, I realize that the cost of this machine is actually very cheap.  The returns on what we are getting for our money are immense!!

We use this juicer predominantly to make green juices but I have also used it to make ice cream as well.

This juicer can also juice wheatgrass and pulpy/juicy fruit and has an attachment that allows you to work with grains and nuts too.  For some of the more juicier fruits you need to use the juice screen.  Although I have never used it, there are also pasta making accessories.

This is obviously the juicer that I know the best as it is the one I have used for well over a decade.  When I bought this juicer so many years ago there weren't as many options as there are now - but even with all the options available today I still believe this to be one of the best.

That being said, there are some other really great machines out there now and I will discuss a couple others below.

In summary I love our Kempo Green Power Juicer because;

• it has lasted well over a decade of daily use
• easy to clean
• pulp free juice
• uses twin gear and low temperature technology that keeps nutrients / enzymes intact
  
• great price considering health benefits and longevity of machine

Kuvings Juicer

I include this juicer here as some friends recently bought this juicer and they brought it over to our place to compare it to our Green Power Juicer.

After a close comparison (comparing juice taste and feel, amount and feel of pulp, ease of use and cleanup, noise quality) it seems to me that this is also a great juicer.

Compared to our Green Power juicer;

• Juice and pulp amounts were similar
• Quality of pulp (dryness) was similar
• Kuvings juice had slightly more pulp in it
• Kuvings juicer is more quiet
• Clean up time and ease was similar
• Kuvings juicer was easier to feed produce into (with the Green Power you need to put a bit of muscle behind it sometimes)
• Kuvings juicer can do green leaves as well as juicy/pulpy fruit without changing any screens

Breville Juicers

I include the Breville Juicers on this page because a friend just completed his 10 day juice fast using a Breville and he said it worked great for him.

This juicer seems similar to the Kuvings Juicer.

In Summary

I have only just touched on the topic which is the best juicer. 

Juicing is an absolutely amazing gift to give yourself, an amazing way to increase your health and wellbeing!

There are many great juicers out there - other than what I have mentioned on this page.

I encourage you to get out there, get yourself a juicer and get started.
