Ranked #4 in Best Juicers

Hamilton Beach Juicer Machine

4.0

1 sourceall derived$54.95as of Oct 11

Reviewers praise the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer Extractor for a large 3-inch feed chute that takes whole fruit with almost no prep, plus a 1.1 horsepower motor that pulls more juice than competing models like the Breville Juice Fountain Cold. They also found it easy to use and clean, with dishwasher-safe parts and accessories included. Complaints: the motor is loud, and despite the chute size, bigger fruit like apples still needs quartering to fit. Anyone after an affordable, no-fuss juicer will be well served.

Strengths

— Extra-large 3 inch feed chute fits whole foods like apples and oranges
— Powerful 1.1 horsepower motor yields more juice than Breville Juice Fountain Cold
— Dishwasher safe parts make cleaning easy

Watch-outs

— Noise level is somewhat loud during operation
— Realistically requires cutting fruits into quarters to fit through chute

Ninja NeverClog Cold Press Juicer JC151

4.3

1 source$129.95as of Oct 16

Ninja's NeverClog JC151 is a horizontal masticating (cold press) juicer with a reverse function for clearing jams and dishwasher-safe juice parts. TechGearLab scored it 76 of 100 and ranked it first of 13 juicers tested, praising velvety juice, standout yields from wheatgrass, kale and spinach, and some of the best orange juice it has tried. Hard produce is its weak spot: beets had to be cut small for the narrow chute and yielded little, and there are many parts to take apart and clean.

Strengths

— TechGearLab scored juice quality 8.8 of 10, with juice its testers routinely called velvety
— Unmatched with wheatgrass in TechGearLab's test: 1 ounce in, 0.9 ounce of juice out, with strong kale and spinach yields
— Some of the best orange and apple juice TechGearLab has tried

Watch-outs

— Below average with hard produce (5.3 of 10): beets had to be cut small for the narrow chute and gave only 126 ml, per TechGearLab
— Squeaked and squealed during beet and wheatgrass juicing in TechGearLab's test
— Many parts to disassemble and reassemble each time, and no cleaning brush included, per TechGearLab

How they stack up

Hamilton Beach Juicer Machine

The Hamilton Beach Juicer Machine has the same 3-inch chute size as the Qcen Juicer Machine and costs more, with a 1.1 horsepower motor where the Qcen lists 500W. Its listed capacity is 10 oz against the Qcen's 17 fl oz. Its parts are dishwasher safe, its motor is somewhat loud, and larger fruit still needs quartering to fit the chute.

Ninja NeverClog Cold Press Juicer JC151

A cold press juicer like the Kuvings Hands-Free Slow Juicer AUTO10 Plus and the Nama J2, at a much lower price on its Amazon listing. TechGearLab found its feed chute narrow enough that beets and celery had to be cut down, where the Qcen Juicer Machine and Hamilton Beach Juicer Machine are centrifugal models with 3-inch chutes. TechGearLab names the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth its best budget juicer in the same test.
