Overview
An upright single-auger masticating juicer that extracts juice at a low 80 rpm rather than the high speeds used by centrifugal juicers, aiming for a quieter, lower heat process rated around 40 to 50 dB.
Reviewers who compared this side by side with a centrifugal juicer consistently mention drier pulp and a quieter kitchen, which tracks with how masticating juicers work. Where reviews split is leafy produce: several buyers found celery, cilantro, kale and pineapple harder to process than firmer fruit and vegetables, and the manual itself recommends cutting crisp produce into smaller pieces first.
- Single auger masticating design
- Low 80 rpm extraction speed
- Runs around 40 to 50 dB
- Easy disassembly for cleaning
Who it's for
Fits buyers juicing mostly firm fruits and vegetables who want dry pulp, easy cleanup and a quieter countertop appliance. Less ideal for anyone juicing mostly leafy greens or stringy produce like celery, which multiple reviewers found more difficult with this auger.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Owners consistently point to dry pulp and quieter operation as the main advantages over a centrifugal juicer, with several using it daily. The recurring friction points are leafy and stringy produce such as celery, cilantro and kale being harder to juice, and at least one owner reporting lower juice yield than their old traditional juicer.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Extracts notably dry pulp compared to a centrifugal juicer
- Quiet operation, generally in the 40 to 50 dB range
- Easy to disassemble and clean
- Handles a wide range of produce including wheatgrass
- Leafy or stringy produce like celery, kale and cilantro can be harder to juice
- Juice yield reported lower than a traditional centrifugal juicer by at least one reviewer
- Carrots can jam the auger if fed too quickly
Performance notes
The single auger turns slowly at 80 rpm, chewing produce rather than shredding it at the 3000 to 15000 rpm typical of centrifugal juicers, which several reviewers credit for the notably dry pulp it leaves behind. Feeding carrots too fast can jam the auger, though one reviewer resolved this simply by slowing down the feed rate.
