Hurom Slow Juicer Review

Overview

This unique-looking contraption has a space-age design with a spout tall enough to fill a large glass. This slow juicer retains many more nutrients and enzymes through its pressing and extraction technology. During this process a great yield of juice is obtained. These juicers cost in the mid $300 range, not the priciest, but not inexpensive either.  [Check Hurom Slow Juicer Prices On Amazon]

Not bad for a juicer featured on The Martha Stewart Show and named Best New Kitchen Appliance by Bon Appetit magazine. Oprah and Dr. Oz also recommend these juicers.

Here are the features represented in Hurom Slow Juicers:

• Aside from vegetables and fruits, this masticating juicer can also handle wheat grasses you bring its way.

Technical Specs

Only 80 RPMs and 150 Watts are used to run this machine. This juicer also has an AC Induction motor that is responsible for its quiet operation. It runs on 120 Volts.

The warranty is 10-years motor and 1-year for parts, which seems standard. Hurom has patented its Low Speed Technology System (LSTS) that crushes and masticates using augers.

Our Review

Pros
This is a super quiet machine. No longer do you have to stop a conversation or turn up the television while you are juicing. The slow juicing process that retains more nutrients and vitamins leads to better health. This machine is a masticating juicer that actually does more than break down grasses and leafy vegetables; it also does a great job with fruits and nuts. That is not the case with some other brands. Not only can juices be prepared, but baby food, ice cream, tofu, soymilk, sauces, and marinades. There is a self-cleaning mechanism but this juicer is easy to disassemble for cleaning. Reassembly is also simple.

Cons
Since this is somewhat pricey, it is not affordable for many people who might be inclined to try it. This forces them to buy the inexpensive juicers that only withstand occasional use. For those who dislike pulp, some juices retain more pulp than in other juicers, which can be a negative to some.
