Juicers

Anyone who enjoys drinking fresh juice may find it worthwhile to buy an extractor and produce their own choice of flavours from a range of fruits and vegetables. A juice extractor takes all the hard work out of making fresh juice; it shreds and pulps the fruit or vegetable, then removes every single drop of pure juice by centrifugal force, leaving you with a delicious glass of fresh juice, with no pulp, pith or pips.

Some models may only process vegetables and fruits such as apples and peaches, some may only work with juice citrus fruits, whilst others will work with any type of fruit or vegetable. Here are just some of the features to watch out for:

• Capacity
  Make sure that the capacity of the blender is large enough for your needs.
• Speed settings
  Some models offer variable speeds for hard and soft fruits.
• Pulse control
  Ideal for breaking down tougher fruit and vegetables.
• Removable pulp container
  Offers easy pulp removal and cleaning and ensures pulp-free juice.
• Feed chute
  A large feed chute means that you do not have to spend time slicing, dicing or peeling, just drop the whole fruit or vegetable into the machine.
