Champion Commercial Juicer Review

When Champion Juicers are described as commercial grade, it is no exaggeration. They definitely present themselves as a very heavy duty, commercial type juicing machine. They brag on their juicers being made in America. Their pricing range is in the mid $200 range, so it is within the possibility of most people’s budget, even if they have to save up for it.

Our Review
Pros
This juicer is easy to feed pulp back through the unit to get more juice from it. When you can use one machine to make other foods like smoothies you usually feel like you got more bang for your buck. A small strainer comes with this machine that can be cleaned in a minute and the other 8 parts are also simple to clean.
Cons
Juice can get hot after continued use. The blades tend to wear out in under a year of use. Problems with repeated leakage caused by an improperly fitted screen, even with a replacement should not occur, even with a juicer in this less expensive price point. Also, since the feed tube is narrow, it requires extra time be taken up to dice the vegetables into smaller pieces. This is an extra step not necessary on more expensive juicers. Despite the claims, a lot of juice is wasted because of how much pulp is left before it gets to the grinder.
