With one of the best juicers in your kitchen you'll not only save money on shop-bought juice and even smoothies, you can also enjoy deliciously fresh drinks and even experiment with ingredients to create your own personalized flavors. It might mean a little more effort, but the results will be worth it.
Before you order a juicer, however, you need to think about what sort you need. Cold press juicers (also known as slow or masticating juicers) are usually the more expensive option, and they grind and strain fruit and veg to get every last drop of fluid. Centrifugal juicers are cheaper and use spinning blades to make juice, but you'll get less juice out them than you would with a cold press model. If you want more than just juice, you could also look at one of the best blenders, which will work as a centrifugal juicer and do much more besides.
To help you find the right model for you, we’ve used our years of collective experience and expertise to compile our top picks for the best juicer. We’ve thoroughly tested juicers of all types at different price points to make sure you find the perfect one for you.
The quick list
Below is our quick guide to the best juicers around. Use it to narrow down your options, then either hop down to the more in-depth entry, or head straight to a retailer to buy.
Best juicer overall
This capable centrifugal juicer can produce plenty of juice in one go with pleasingly clear results - there was no pulp left in the juice during our tests. It stays reassuringly cool while working, unlike some centrifugal juicers we've tried that get quite warm as they spin. It's reasonably priced too, making it our all-round winner.
Best budget juicer
An excellent choice if your budget's tight. The Slow Juicer ZM1502miw easy to assemble and use, although you won't get as much juice as you would from pricier models and we found that the feed chute is relatively small, so you'll need to chop up large pieces of produce before adding them.
Best citrus juicer
If all you want is juice from citrus fruits, check out this model from Smeg. It looks great and is really easy to use; it will start juicing automatically when you apply pressure with your fruit. Bear in mind, however, that it can't be used to juice any other fruits and veg. If you want something more versatile, take a look at the Magimix Juice Expert 3 below.
Best hybrid juicer
Combining features of a cold press juicer and a centrifugal juicer, this versatile Magimix can produce juice, smoothies and nut milk easily. During our tests we were impressed by how well it handled produce that's usually tough to juice, such as berries and bananas, and the resulting juice was nice and clear with no pulp.
Best entry-level juicer
Another budget option, this Nutribullet blender can produce plenty of fruit and veg juice, but it's not completely smooth and you'll find froth on top once it's done its job. Our tester appreciated its wide feed chute though, which meant she didn't have to spend time chopping produce into bite-size pieces before adding it.
Best for more than juice
Like the Magimix Juice Expert 3 above, this is a super versatile juicer. As well as juice (with no nasty froth on top) it'll make smoothies, and with an additional homogenizer you'll get sauces, purees and more. We were also impressed by how quiet it is, which makes it a good choice if you share a kitchen, or have a young child who's easily disturbed by noise.

Best retro juicer
If looks are your priority in the kitchen you'll adore this Smeg's retro stylings. It produces clear, smooth juice, but it's a bit short on accessories and features. We did, however, like the option to adjust the thickness of the juice to suit your preferences - handy if you or your family have issues with texture.
Best juicer / blender
Don't have room for both a juicer and a blender? The aptly named Bluicer Pro does both, and it's fast and efficient at juicing (during our tests it juiced a whole apple in just 10 seconds) but it also made more noise than any other blender we tested. If you want quiet juicing, take a look at the Kuvings Evolution Cold Press Juicer above.
The best juicers 2025
Why you can trust TechRadar We spend hours testing every product or service we review, so you can be sure you’re buying the best. Find out more about how we test.
The best juicer overall
✅ You want smooth juice with no pulp: This machine makes very clear juice with no graininess.
✅ You want to juice whole fruits: The wide chute means most fruit and veg can be popped in without chopping.
❌ You want a compact juicer: This large-capacity juicer isn't going to tuck away neatly in a corner.
❌ You want to juice leafy greens: This machine struggles to get much juice from leaves like kale, and tends to blow them back up the chute.
Breville's the Juice Fountain Cold is the best blender you can buy today, hitting the sweet spot when it comes to juice yields, simplicity and price. With a 70oz/2L lidded jug and 3.6 qt/ 3.4L pulp container, this juicer can make large quantities of juice in one go, and we were impressed at just how clear the juice produced was and the fact there was no pulp included in the juice either.
Known as the Sage the Nutri Juicer Cold in the UK, this is a centrifugal juicer. Still, it features 'Cold Spin Technology,' which the brand claims will ensure the juicer stays cool, despite its high spin speed, to avoid any heat damage to vitamins and minerals during the juicing process.
If you're a fan of kale shots, this isn't the juicer for you, as it struggled to extract much juice from leafy greens in our tests, and we also found that while juices were smooth and clear, they had a thick layer of foam on top. However, considering its mid-range price tag and ease of use, we think it's a great choice.

The best budget juicer
✅ You want a budget-friendly slow juicer: This is much cheaper than most similar juicers.
✅ You want easy clean-up: Although it's not clear from the manual, many of this juicer's parts are dishwasher-safe.
❌ You want maximum juice yields: This won't get the most juice out of your produce, though it does well considering its price.
❌ You want to juice whole fruits: The feed chute is too small for whole apples or pears.
With a very affordable price tag, this slow juicer represents excellent value. It is ideal for those on a budget who still want to enjoy the benefits of a slow juicer, such as making refreshing drinks from leafy greens.
On testing, we found it easy to assemble and simple to use. The juice yields were slightly below what we’ve seen from more premium slow juicers but exceeded the results from its nearest competitor in terms of price, the Ninja Cold Press Juicer. The components are dishwasher safe, which makes for easy cleaning, too.
However, the feed chute is smaller than other juicers we’ve tested, which meant we had to spend more time chopping up fruit and vegetables before juicing them and the instruction manual wasn’t as detailed as we’d have hoped.

The best citrus juicer
✅ You want speed and ease: There are no buttons or dials - just press down half a fruit and the juicer does the rest.
✅ You juice citrus fruits regularly: This juicer does one thing, and does it well.
❌ It's not going to get regular use: This is pricey for a single-function appliance, so you'll need to use if often to justify the price.
❌ You like smooth orange juice: We found quite a lot of pulp and pips in our glass.
If you enjoy your citrus fruits, then getting a citrus juicer is one way you can start to enjoy them more. However, it is limited to only being able to juice your grapefruits, oranges, lemons, and limes, so if you don't regularly tuck into these, this will not be the appliance for you.
In our test, we were impressed with how easy it was to remove the juice from the fruit. There were no dials or controls to operate - we just switched it on, and away we went. The motor is automatically powered on and off when you apply or remove the pressure to the juicing cone.
What we really liked about the citrus juicer was the design. It's beautiful, as are all the retro 50s style appliances in the range. What we didn't like about it was that the height of the spout could not be adjusted, so that we couldn't use our favorite glass.

The best hybrid juicer
✅ You want variety: Apples, carrots, citrus, smoothies, nut milk - this juicer does it all.
✅ You have a compact kitchen: This appliance has a surprisingly small footprint.
❌ You want a separate pulp container: It can be a hassle having to remove the pusher, lid, and juice filter to empty the pub.
❌ You want a juice jug included: Some juicers include a pitcher to separate any foam, but not this one.
Although the Magimix Juice Expert 3 is marketed as a cold press juicer, it appears to be configured more like a centrifugal juicer, so we'd describe it as a hybrid juicer. It has a central spinning filter basket that chops up fruit and veg then forces them through its filter to deliver smooth juice drinks that are free from pulp.
Its main filter is designed for harder fruits and vegetables, while an extra press attachment means that this juicer can cope just fine with harder-to-juice fruits such as berries and bananas, and it also comes with a citrus press that's ideal for orange juice whenever you need it.
One thing to note is that that the Magimix Juice Expert 3 doesn't come with a separate pulp container, which means that pulp collects in the filter basket and you'll have to take it out regularly and empty it. You'll also need to supply your own juice container, which feels like much more of an oversight, however this small inconvenience feels worth putting up with considering that this is one versatile machine that's capable of producing both smooth juice and delicious smoothies.

The best entry-level juicer
✅ You're on a budget: This Nutribullet does a very good job of juicing without breaking the bank.
✅ You want juice with minimal prep: This is another juicer with a wide feed chute, so you don't need to spent ages chopping produce.
❌ You want very clear, smooth juice: We found our juice tended to be quite frothy, with some grainy pulp.
❌ You want to juice leafy greens: Kale and spinach will be blown out of the feed tube, and don't yield much juice.
This is a great entry-level juicer for those on a budget. Two-speed settings make it easy to use, and the dishwasher-safe components mean cleaning it is a breeze.
It's effective at producing plenty of juice from fruit and vegetables, but in our tests, the juices we created weren't completely smooth and had a large layer of froth on top too. The Nutribullet Juicer also struggled to produce much juice from leafy green vegetables, such as kale, although this is what we'd expect from a centrifugal juicer. A compact and neat juicer, the Nutribullet has a wide feed chute, so we didn't have to waste time chopping fresh produce, and the pitcher comes with a lid to make storing the juice easy. There's also a recipe booklet, which offers plenty of inspiration for those new to juicing. So if you're on a budget, this is a juicer worth considering.

The best juicer for more than juice
✅ You want to juice greens: Unlike many juicers we've tested, this one handles leaves well - particularly if soaked in water beforehand as instructed in the manual.
✅ You're sensitive to noise: The Evolution Cold Press Juicer is one of the quietest we've ever used.
❌ You want easy cleaning: This juicer has quite a lot of fiddly silicone parts that need keeping clean with the small brushes supplied,
❌ You don't want to spend much: This is easily one of the most expensive juicers we've tested over the years.
If you're looking for an appliance that can prepare more than just refreshing fruit and vegetable drinks, the Kuvings Evolution 820 Cold Press Juicer is worth considering.
It comes with two strainers, but an additional homogenizer that allows you to make nut butter, sauces, purees, and fresh 'ice cream' from frozen fruits, is also available for the juicer, along with a smoothie strainer.
During testing, it impressed us by producing smooth, clear froth-free juice from an array of fruit and vegetables. It's also one of the quietest we've tested too.
The Kuvings Cold Press Juicer doesn't come cheap, but with its relatively heavy base and stylish body, you can tell you're paying for a durable, serious piece of kit.

The best retro juicer
✅ You want to make a lot of juice: There are two jugs - a 1-liter one for juice, and a 1.6-liter one for pulp.
✅ You appreciate Smeg's style: This juicer will look smart in any kitchen.
❌ You want kale in your juice: The motor is powerful enough to handle hard fruits and vegetables, but we found it heavy-handed when it came to leafy greens.
❌ You hate foam on your juice: Smeg hasn't included a pitcher that will separate the froth.
The attractive retro body on the Smeg SJF01 Slow Juicer certainly looks good on the counter, but its basic functions are a little less luxurious. Designed to match Smeg’s iconic range of 1950s small and large appliances, this juicer has minimal accessories and lacks a froth separator.
In our tests, we found it was simple to use and, on the whole, produced clear, smooth juice from an array of fruit and vegetables. We were also impressed with the juice density regulation lever, which allows the thickness of the juice to be adjusted to your tastes.
While it may not be the most high-tech juicer on the market, it fits the bill if you want smooth juice and good looks from an appliance.

The best juicer / blender
✅ You want to minimize the number of appliances in your kitchen: Who needs a separate juicer and blender when this does the job of both?
✅ You don't want to spend time scrubbing: Some of the Bluicer's parts are dishwasher-safe, including the juicing nozzle and filter bowl surround.
❌ You often juice leaves and berries: The Bluicer proved a bit too powerful for delicate ingredients.
❌ You hate foam on your juice: We were surprised just how much was left on top after juicing.
Unlike the other juicers in our round-up, the Sage the 3X Bluicer Pro, known as the Breville the 3X Bluicer Pro in the US, doubles up as a blender which is helpful if you don't have the space for two separate appliances.
In our tests, it came up top in speed, juicing an apple in an impressive 10 seconds, making it one of the fastest and most efficient juicers we've tested. In addition, we liked the informative LED control panel display that walks you through the controls and lets you adjust the speed - a feature we think is lacking on standard juicer appliances.
Like all centrifugal juicers, it struggled to juice leafy greens like spinach but worked well on harder fruits and veggies. However, in use, this is the noisiest juicer we've tested, and it's bulky, so it requires a lot of storage space.

How we test juicers
To find the best juicers, we’ve spent hours in the kitchen putting the top models to the test to make a green juice from broccoli, celery, pears, and ginger, while also juicing carrots, oranges, and apples. As well as evaluating how smooth the drinks are and how fast they’re dispensed, we’re also looking for whether bitterness from the pith and pulp has tainted the taste of the juice, how much foam has been created in the drink and if there’s any remaining fresh produce in the appliance that hasn’t been juiced.
For each model, we rate how loud they are, how durable and easy to clean the body and parts are, if the chute is wide enough for whole fruits and vegetables, whether they need to be chopped before juicing, and if it splashes and drips during and after use.
How to choose a juicer
As we've already mentioned, there are two types of juicers to choose from if you're looking to invest in an appliance that can extract liquid from fruit and vegetables.
A centrifugal juicer uses a flat blade and spinning strainer to create fresh juice and works best on firmer fruits and veggies. They're faster and more affordable than cold press juicers, but they're noisier and create more heat which can break down the nutrients in the fruit quicker than slow juicers.
As the name suggests, a slow juicer takes time to break down fruit and vegetables to ensure that as many nutrients as possible are retained, and every drop of juice is extracted. They're more expensive than a centrifugal juicer, but this can be cost-effective in the long run as you'll get a higher juice yield.
Many juicers come with a range of different sized-strainers, which means you can control how much pulp, if any, is retained in the juice, and for those that dislike froth on freshly squeezed juice, look for models that include a froth separator. Some juicers even offer additional attachments so you can create nut butter, fresh pasta, grind coffee, and extract the juice. Also, consider the size of the juicer, where you'll keep it, and any accessories it comes with, as well as how time-consuming it is to clean.

Juicer FAQs
Which type of juicer is best?
As we've already mentioned, there are two types of juicers on the market: centrifugal juicers and cold press juicers. This may leave you wondering which type of juicer is best.
Centrifugal juicers are more affordable than cold press juicers and are quicker at extracting juice. However, the blades they use to extract juice from fruit create heat, which can destroy the nutrients and minerals in the fruity liquid.
Cold press juicers do a better job of preserving the nutrients in the fruit juice as they grind and chew the fruit to extract the juice rather than blades that generate heat. However, this means the juicing process is slower than when using a centrifugal juicer and is more expensive.
You can find out in-depth how the two designs differ by reading Centrifugal juicers vs cold press juicers. Or, if you've already decided on a cold press juicer, hop over to our guide on how to use a cold press juicer for tons of tips and tricks.
Juicers vs blenders
Juicers have been designed to extract the liquid from fresh produce. As we’ve covered above, there are a few different types of juicers, and some use sharp blades to break down the fruits and veggies, whereas others slowly press the ingredients to release the liquid. Once the juice has been created, you’ll have the leftover parts of your produce.
Blenders work differently because rather than extracting juices, they break down the entire contents of the blending jug to create a smooth mixture and don’t leave anything behind. For a full round-up of the pros and cons of both juicers and blenders, head to our feature on Juicers vs blenders: what’s the difference?
How to clean a juicer
Cleaning a juicer isn't always easy, especially as there are many small crevices where fruit or veggies can get stuck and start to build up. However, staying on top of the cleanliness of your juicer will help keep your juice tasting as fresh as possible while ensuring the machine is hygienic too.
You'll need to clean all the removable parts off the machine in warm water and dish soap, scrub them with a cloth or brush where necessary, and use a spoon or a spatula to remove the pulp. Discover in-depth how to clean a juicer in our article.
