The Best Juicers of 2026

• Juicer type: Centrifugal
• Dimensions: 7 x 6 x 11.5 inches (depth x width x height)
• Weight: 6.7 pounds
• Power: 400 watts

For a juicer that retails for under $60, this one is pretty impressive. While the Magic Bullet Mini Juicer appears to be cumbersome at a glance, it is surprisingly easy to assemble and use. The juice is made quickly and the resulting beverages are delicious.

We especially liked this juicer for its closed system, which helps keep mess to a minimum. The cup that collects the juice attaches to a nozzle so the juice streams directly into the vessel leaving no risk for splatter.

Bonus? You can drink right from the same cup that collects the juice, resulting in fewer items to clean. The attachments are top-rack dishwasher safe and the attached chute that collects waste directly into the pulp bin, which aids in reducing mess.

Granted, using this juicer is quite noisy. But it gets the job done and it is capable of juicing even the firmest foods, like almonds and carrots. The chute is wide enough to hold large quantities of produce, so you don’t have to continuously feed this machine.

The plastic parts aren't as sturdy as higher-quality juicers but this machine has a relatively small footprint, making it a great addition to smaller kitchens if space is a concern. If you only want slow pressed juice, this one won’t fit the bill. Instead of pressing the ingredients to extract the juice, this machine is centrifugal so it rapidly shreds produce for juicing.

The Tribest Slowstar, another vertical masticating juicer, yielded some of the most juice for carrots and grapefruit and altogether impressed us with its output. This updated model also comes with a mincer attachment we have not tested, but could be useful for people searching for a multipurpose tool.

Unfortunately, the Slowstar has a number of design issues that keep us from ranking it higher. The pulp chute is narrower than most, which made cleaning the pulp out of the chute more of a chore. The unit is fidgety to reassemble, and the plastic chute topper, designed to catch loose produce, was too small to hold greens as we added them, resulting in the greens spilling onto the table and floor.

It’s a fine juicer, but the fit and finish just isn’t there.

• Juicer type: Masticating
• Dimensions: 8.8 x 7.8 x 16 inches (depth x width x height)
• Weight: 18.2 pounds
• Power: 150 watts

The Hurom H-AA is a gorgeous vertical masticating juicer that comes in a range of on-trend colors (hello, rose gold) and assembles into a fairly compact unit.

Throughout testing, it demonstrated its range as one of the top performers for both grapefruit and spinach. Unfortunately, it had a much tougher time with carrots and the bonus root vegetable juice, yielding less juice and more pulp than others tested.

The design of this Hurom is not the most user-friendly of the juicers we tested. The pulp chute has a complicated open/closed/half-open switch that opens the rear plug. This switch also traps a lot of pulp that’s difficult to get out when cleaning.

The Hurom H-AA has a number of features and accessories we didn’t test but are worth knowing about, including an ice cream maker and tofu press. Unfortunately, the juicer’s manual doesn’t clarify much.

Ultimately, this is a beautiful, fidgety device that comes at a premium price and will take some getting used to.

Slow, steady, and built to last, the Omega J8006HDS produced a consistently high juice yield with little effort. The resulting juice was always crisp and refreshingly low on pulp and foam.

This horizontal auger masticating juicer is heavy, but for good reason—its base prevents it from tipping over when you press the plunger down hard, and its auger is hefty and powerful enough to push through almost any obstacle.

Although juicers are a notorious pain to keep clean, the Omega’s parts that need to be changed and removed for cleaning are lightweight, well-designed, and simple enough to reassemble without causing a headache. It can also be stored more easily than most vertical centrifugal models.

This Omega isn’t perfect, however. It has one of the smallest feed tubes—where you insert the produce you want to juice—so you’ll have to cut large fruit down to size. Additionally, the central unit that houses the auger inevitably traps pulp that goes un-juiced.

Ultimately, if you want high-quality juice that will waste the least amount of produce, we recommend this Omega. The price tag isn’t something to laugh at, but you won’t find a comparable juicer at a better price.

Considering its low price, this triangular horizontal masticating juicer from Aobosi surprised us with generally high juice yield. It produced some of the most spinach juice and kale-and-apple juice of all the models, and didn’t tend to trap pulp around the auger like other horizontal juicers. The pulp that did come out was often rather wet, however, indicating another kind of inefficiency.

The main reason the Aobosi doesn’t rank higher is its low build quality. Throughout testing, the lightweight juicer wobbled and almost fell over multiple times when we had to press down hard with the plunger. We had to use our other hand to stabilize the base. All of this makes us skeptical of the machine’s longevity.

If you’re desperate for a masticating juicer but can’t afford higher-priced models, the Aobosi might be a good intro unit. Don’t expect it to last you a lifetime, though.

The Omega VSJ843Q, a vertical masticating juicer with a compact design, narrowly beat out our top pick on grapefruit and kale juice yield. However, this Omega doesn’t seem to be built as well, and it’s harder to disassemble and clean.

With this and all vertical auger juicers, be aware that pulp often gets stuck between the auger and the juice screen that filters pulp out of your juice. So when you remove the auger you'll inevitably end up with pulp all over your hands. Or countertop. Or both.

Overall, this Omega worked just fine, but we wouldn’t recommend it over other products unless it was being sold at a significant discount.

While the Juice Fountain Compact is smaller than other Breville juicers we tested, it’s by no means a small juicer.

Unlike centrifugal models that come with separate pulp containers, this juicer collects pulp around the exterior edge of the strainer basket. This decreases the overall footprint of the juicer, but in order to empty its pulp container, you have to take the whole thing apart. Also, we found that residual juice tends to drip out of that container on the way to the trash can.

While this Breville produced middling results for most tests, it yielded the very least amount of juice for both grapefruit and kale and apple, making it a poor option for most casual juice drinkers. It’s pretty and seems built to last, but that’s about its only advantages.

• Dimensions: 13.2 x 18.2 x 16 inches (depth x width x height)
• Weight: 12.3 pounds
• Power: 850 watts

The Breville Juice Fountain Plus is a functional but unremarkable centrifugal juicer. Also, its plastic construction makes it less durable and more prone to staining.

This juicer struggled with spinach but performed fairly well when juicing carrots and grapefruit. The large feed tube can fit a whole grapefruit, and the juice container—where your fresh juice comes out—fits snugly up under the spout so there aren’t any spills. However, it’s too bulky and expensive to really recommend.

The Cuisinart CJE-1000 has a nice aesthetic, it’s easy to put together, and requires very little prep thanks to the 3-inch feed chute. This centrifugal juicer was in the middle of the pack for most of our testing, producing a decent amount of carrot and grapefruit juice, but it fell flat on design.

The top of the juicer is connected with a hinge on the back. You can remove the entire thing to clean it, but you’ll have to tilt the top way back before it pops out of the hinge. There’s never any reason to open the top partially, without removing it completely for cleaning, so the hinge itself is rather pointless.

The Cuisinart also has a nozzle that’s meant to control the flow of juice from the juicer to the juice container, but we were unable to fully close the nozzle (the most important part). In addition, when we turned the Cuisinart to the highest setting, the whole machine slid on the countertop as the motor spun up, kicking the juice container away from the machine.

Between its poor design and inability to fully juice greens, we can’t recommend this model.
