If you are looking for a juicer to use regularly, then cleaning and maintenance would be a key factor. You not only want a machine that is easy to maintain but ready to operate within the, if you are busy schedule.
A juicer with faster extractor will be the best option for you. However, such juicers don’t allow you to store juices for long period. You will have to consume as you make it. We suggest you go for Phillips Viva Collection HR 1863or Philips Viva Collection HR1832.Both are really easy to clean. Take only 2-3 minutes.
Slow juicers will give you the option of making large quantity but it will take time. But once you have made juice, you can have juice several times a day. If you want this option, consider buying Prestige PCJ 7.0 500-Watt Centrifugal Juicer.It is also easy to clean with simple kitchen soap and utensil cleaning bar.
2. Price
Price is the biggest factor for any consumer. If you are on a tight budget go for the value for money option like Wonderchef Nutri-Blend 400 Watts Juicer Mixer Grinder . It does everything for you.
We have created list of top juicers in India that have products in price range of around Rs. 1000 to Rs. 6000. If you have enough budget, go for the best and advanced juicer.If you are on a budget but still want the best, we advice you to get Philips Viva Collection HR1832 or Sujata Powermatic PM 900-Watt Juicer.
However, if you are on really tight budget, you can use the machine that has it all and cost is also low. Best options would be Wonderchef Nutri-Blend 400 Watts Juicer Mixer Grinder, Bajaj Majesty JX 4 450-Watt Juicer Mixer Grinder or Philips HR2771 0.5-Litre Citrus Press.Though, you may be compelled to choose the cheapest of all products but remember you may lose money with a low quality product. Never compromise quality for money.
3. Noise
If think you can handle a little noise, think again. As the machine ages it gets noisy. You don’t want a machine that not only wakes you up but also your neighbours.Mostly centrifugal juicer are the most noisier ones. And of course cheaper products will always make noises.If you want to maintain peace at your home we advise you to get masticating juicers as they are the quietest like Phillips Viva Collection HR 1863 or Philips Viva Collection HR1832.
4. Power
Power is a huge factor if you are a juice fanatic. And especially if you are looking to juice hard vegetables. Hard vegetables require juicer with powerful motor.Hard vegetables include fibrous vegetables like carrot, beet or wheatgrass. For such vegetables, minimum power required is around 400 watt.Of course using high power juice will cost you some money on your electricity bills. But in long run you will enjoy better health as you will enjoy high quality juice.
5. Warranty
Warranty is a promise from the company that their product will work perfectly for a certain period and if any issue arises they will take care of it for free. Most of the brands offer around 2 years of warranty on their product. Phillips offers two years through out their product range.Some brands also offer exteded warranty on parts like Sujata offer 5 years of warranty on the motor beyond two years on the whole product. Cheaper brands will always lack warranty so stay away from them.
