Best juicers to buy in 2025

Ninja cold press juicer with anti-clog filter JC151UK

Available from Very (£129), Ninja (£129.99), Argos (£129.99), Currys (£129.99), Amazon (£189)

Best cold press juicer

Pros:

• Two filters included
• Simple to use
• Fully recyclable packaging
• Thorough manual and recipe booklet

Cons:

• Noisy in use
• Large on the countertop
• Feeding chute is quite narrow

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 150W

An upgrade of the Ninja cold press juicer, this masticating juicer is ideal for those looking to dip their toes into the world of homemade juices. What sets it apart from the original is the anti-clog filter, which keeps things running smoothly even when juicing fibrous veg or leafy greens.

Inside the box is a clear, detailed manual, with useful tips on what to do with your leftover pulp. There are also two interchangeable, colour-coded pulp filters, allowing you to tailor the texture and thickness of your juice – whether your preference is ultra-smooth or extra pulpy. A bit of pre-chopping is required first, though, as the 4.5cm feeding chute is too narrow to fit whole or even half-cut ingredients.

While a little whiny in operation, we thought the juicer produced great-quality juice in test – with the fine filter producing smooth, lump-free results, and the other filters adding texture as desired. All removable parts are also dishwasher-safe and the jug is a generous 700ml, so you can make up a good-sized batch for a crowd or to store in the fridge.

Available from:

• Very (£129)
• Ninja (£129.99)
• Argos (£129.99)
• Currys (£129.99)
• Amazon (£189)

Magic Bullet mini juicer

Available from Nutribullet (£59.99), Amazon (£49.99)

Best compact juicer

Pros:

• Small footprint
• Easy to assemble
• To-go cup included

Cons:

• Only makes 470ml
• Noisy
• No frozen berries or vegetables

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 400W

The description of the Magic Bullet as a mini juicer was not evident when we removed it from the box. The base is quite large, heavy and sturdy. Its four feet stick to a worktop and it's clear it won't move. The rest of the assembly is easy using the enclosed book and its clear diagrams. After a quick wash, the whole juicer can be assembled in minutes.

The motor is only 400W and a little noisy, but it still makes short work of apples, kale, carrots and ginger. The juice was excellent and smooth, with plenty of juice produced (though a few kale leaves were found in the waste). Magic Bullet highly recommends that frozen fruits or vegetables are not used in this machine.

The standout of this juicer is that it makes individual juice that's ready to go. The juice is dispensed directly into a lidded 470 ml cup – once filled with the lid firmly clipped shut, it’s ready to go.

Nama J2 Cold Press Juicer

Available from UK Juicers (£545)

Best premium juicer

Pros:

• Versatile
• Produces smooth results
• Easy to use
• 15-year warranty
• Lots of accessories included

Cons:

• Expensive
• Large footprint
• Fiddly assembly

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 200W

As the heftiest and most expensive model on this list, the Nama J2 is a serious piece of kit for juicing enthusiasts. It's a self-feeding masticating juicer, so you can place all the ingredients inside the jug and leave it to do all the hard work for you, in just a matter of minutes.

There are spouts on either side – one for the liquid to pour through, the other for the pulp – and two vessels for collecting each are also provided in the box. All the juices we made were smooth and delicious and we were pleased to see the bright green colour from the kale coming through in every beverage. After inspecting the pulp, we were also satisfied that the juice from each ingredient had been fully extracted.

The set-up can be fiddly and time-consuming, which is frustrating since you have to disassemble it for cleaning after each use, then reassemble it again. On the plus side, the manual is thorough and comprehensive, and there's a video online that explains the steps in detail. There are also cleaning accessories included.

The biggest turn-off is the cost. This is by no means a cheap appliance, but if you have the budget and space in your kitchen to house it, the Nama J2 is a worthwhile investment that produces superbly smooth results.

Sage the Citrus Press

Available from Harts Of Stur (£138.95), Sage Appliances (£139.95), Amazon (£138.14)

Best overall citrus juicer

Pros:

• Ergonomic handle
• Strains all juice effectively
• Comes with one-size-fits-all juicing cone

Cons:

• Large footprint
• Excessive plastic packaging

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 110W

If you like the idea of starting your day with freshly squeezed citrus juice with next to no elbow grease required, an electric juicer is a handy gadget to have in your arsenal. This stylish gadget from Sage is pricey, but what you get in return is quick and effortless results, delivered by a powerful motor.

The citrus press is fitted with a power-assisted arm that feels comfortable to hold and required minimal pressure. The one-size-fits-all cone means you can switch from juicing small fruits to larger ones without having to change anything, and we were particularly impressed by how much juice it managed to extract from limes.

Kuvings whole slow juicer

Available from Peter Tyson (£289), Amazon (£345)

Best entry-level juicer

Pros:

• Lots of cleaning equipment provided
• Easy to assemble
• Informative manual
• Wide chute

Cons:

• Parts can't be put in the dishwasher

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 240W

This masticating juicer from popular juicer brand Kuvings is a fantastic entry-level model that ticks all the boxes. We found this model easy to assemble and although none of the parts are dishwasher safe, plenty of cleaning accessories are provided to make clean up a breeze.

This model had no problem with hard veg, leafy greens and fibrous ingredients. The juice produced was bright green in colour, silky smooth and bursting with flavour.

• Quiet
• Large self-feeding chute

Cons:

This model has been well-designed, featuring easy-clean parts and a self-contained pulp bin that contributes to the Hurom’s streamlined appearance.

Little-to-no prep is required for ingredients, simply pop them in the large jug and let the self-feeding mechanism do the hard work for you. The juice produced was smooth, vibrant and foam-free.

Fridja F1900

Available from Amazon (£124.99)

Best versatile juicer

Pros:

• Good range of accessories provided
• Slim
• Sturdy
• Heavy-duty
• Quiet

Cons:

• Tall so may not fit under some cupboards
• A lot of non-recyclable packaging

Star rating: 4.5/5

Wattage: 240W

If you’re looking for a juicer that can juice and do a little bit more, this Fridja model is the one for you. As well as juice, this model can be used to make sorbet, ice cream and even nut milk.

This model is stable in use. It’s also the tallest model we tested. Whilst it’s tall, slim appearance is attractive, we felt this may pose an issue for people with overhead cupboards who want to keep their juicer on the kitchen counter.

Assembling this model was very easy, as was cleaning it after use. The juice produced was smooth, clear and vibrant in colour. Read our full Fridja F1900 review.

Sage the Nutri Juicer Cold Plus

Available from Back Market (£120), Peter Tyson (£238), Harts Of Stur (£238.95), Hughes (£239), Sage (£239.95)

Best juicer for large quantities

Pros:

• Sleek-looking
• Wide chute
• Large-capacity jug included
• Multiple speed options

Cons:

• Heavy and bulky
• Struggles to juice kale
• Non-recyclable packaging

Star rating: 4/5

Wattage: 1200W-1300W

A great choice for families or those who simply drink a lot of juice, this powerful gadget from Sage comes with a wide chute that eliminates the need to pre-cut ingredients. Included in the box are a 2-litre jug with a sealed lid (so you can keep juice fresh in the fridge for up to three days), a cleaning brush, large pulp bin, and detachable single-cup nozzle, which allows for liquid to be fed straight into a glass.

Assembling the Nutri Juicer was a quick task, and operating it can be done with one hand – though you ideally need two to lock in the safety lever, which keeps the body of the juicer in place during use. The controls are simple as well: turn the dial to the low setting for soft ingredients, and to high for harder items. Just bear in mind it's very loud when switched on.

We found the Nutri Juicer struggled with leafy greens like kale – even when using the high setting as suggested in the manual. It did a much better job with other ingredients like whole apples, ginger and carrots, though we anticipate you'd have to use a lot of ingredients to fill the pitcher to its maximum capacity.

Nutribullet Juicer Pro

Available from JD Williams (£119.99), Currys (£129), Argos (£120)

Best centrifugal juicer

Pros:

• Comes with lots of useful accessories
• Affordable model

Cons:

• Loud
• Bulky and takes up lots of space
• Struggled to juice kale

Star rating: 4/5

Wattage: 1000W

This speedy juicer from Nutribullet is sure to impress those who want their juice ready fast. There’s lots to love about this juicer: it’s easy to assemble, dishwasher-safe and comes with some of the best sustainability credentials of all models tested.

The juice produced was flavoursome and smooth, but we felt let down by the lack of green hue to indicate all of the kale had been processed. Plus, true to form with centrifugal models, there was a thick layer of foam on top of our juice.

Nutribullet Juicer 01515

Available from Currys (£89.99), JD Williams (£89.99), Argos (£90)

Best budget juicer

Pros:

• Budget-friendly
• Simple controls
• Easy to clean

Cons:

• Juice wasn't as smooth as we'd have liked
• Loud
• Some fruits and veg went un-juiced

Star rating: 4/5

Wattage: 800W

If you’re just getting into juicing or are looking for a cheap and cheerful model for the odd occasion, this Nutribullet model may just be the ticket. It’s the younger sibling of the Nutribullet model above and is slightly cheaper looking too.

Like the Nutribullet above, this model is easy to assemble and all the parts can go in the dishwasher. It’s fast, but not the quietest model, which doesn’t make it ideal for early morning juices.

Whilst pleasant tasting, the juice produced was a little grainy and this model struggled a little with leafy greens.

Other juicers tried and tested

• Sage 3X Bluicer Pro review, £389.95

What types of juicers are there?

Although there are plenty of options on the market, the two main options are fast or slow juicers.

Centrifugal (fast) juicers

Once fruit and veg are fed down the feeding chute, these juicers work by spinning it very fast against a grater or slightly pronged disk, so the ingredients are completely broken down. The centrifugal force then draws all of the juice through a fine mesh sieve which is then channelled towards the juice spout.

These seem to be the most popular choice because they are speedy, easy to use, and tend to be fairly budget-friendly. They’re louder than their masticating counterparts, but are – as the name suggests – significantly faster.

Masticating (slow) juicers

For anyone who considers juicing a vital part of their diet, masticating is often deemed preferable. These juicers work by squeezing or “chewing” fruits and vegetables using a corkscrew shaped device called an auger. The crushed ingredients are then pressed through a sieve or strainer and produce foam-free results.

Although not as speedy, it will definitely do a much better job at breaking down the fruit or veg, particularly those hard-to-blend leafy greens. It’s often said that you will yield more juice from these, so they’re considered more cost-effective in the long run.

Citrus juicers

Similar in design to hand held citrus juicers, an electric model does the twisting for you. Simply halve your citrus and press it onto the central spindle, this will then start to rotate allowing you to move the fruit around the spindle, ensuring you get every last drop of juice out. Citrus juicers are a truly specialist appliance, but great if you drink or cook with a lot of citrus.

What to do with leftover juice pulp

After juicing you’ll be left with a pile of semi-dry pulp and fibre. Rather than simply throwing it out, the leftovers can be reused in a couple of interesting ways.

• Add it into a vegetable stock
• Turn kale (or any other leafy green) pulp into pesto
• Add pulp to homemade granola and energy bites
• Mix pulp into a muffin batter
• If you can’t find anything to do with it, make sure to add it to the food waste bin

How we tested juicers

We put all traditional juicers to the test by making a simple carrot, apple, kale and ginger juice. The chosen ingredients allowed us to see how the juicer tackled four key juicing ingredients.

Carrots to see how sturdy the masticating spindle or centrifugal spinner are.

Apples are classic juicing ingredients, not only did we use them to see how much juice was produced, but also to check whether a whole apple could fit in the feeding chute.

Without the kale, our juice would be totally orange, to ensure that the juicers on test were able to process leafy greens, we looked for a strong green juice to indicate all of the kale had been effectively juiced.

Ginger is hard and fibrous, we wanted to ensure the juicer didn’t get blocked.

For citrus juicers, or traditional juicers with dedicated citrus juicing attachments, we made a classic orange juice.

We also tested the juicers against the following criteria:

• Ease of use: Although assembling the machines can be quite time-consuming, we noted how easy the instruction manuals were to use and the simplicity of each machine’s functionality once put together. We also made sure they weren’t too noisy for an everyday kitchen.
• Smoothness: As we were looking to juice a variety of fruit and veg, it was important the juicers could handle everything we threw their way. The juice produced needed to be a strong, deep and rich colour to indicate that a high level of vitamins and minerals had been extracted. We looked for smooth, clear and vibrant juice.
• Ease of cleaning: We looked for machines with removable components that could be washed in a dishwasher or by hand.
• Ease of storage: Although all juicers tend to be big due to the nature of the work they do, we looked for compact appliances that could be stored in a kitchen cupboard.
• Sustainability: Juicers come with lots of component parts, so extra points were given to models/brands who offer spare parts. We also looked for transparency around where the juicer was made. And of course, favoured plastic-free, recyclable packaging.
• Features: Any added bonuses, like different options for frozen juices or veg prep, were taken into account.
