Motor
For masticating juicers, the motor needs to be more reliable and slower as compared to centrifugal juicers. A motor with more torque and rotations will do the job better. The higher torque lets the auger work well with hard and tough vegetables and roots. In addition to this, gear reduction should also be noticed before making a purchase.
Noise
This particular aspect is the most crucial while making a buying decision. Customers tend to seek products that make the least noise. Therefore a juicer with zero noise pollution will be the perfect fit.Â
Attachments/Accessories
The parts that come along with a juicer also add to its flexibility and compliance. They allow the juicer to be more compatible while performing different tasks. A juicer can be a food processor, grinder, and mincer if the correct attachments are provided.
At times, these accessories are sold separately. Therefore, it’s wise to look for the juicer that comes with these parts, so you don’t have to buy them separately.
Simple Assembling
Anything easy to assemble would automatically require less time and effort to be put together. Some masticating juicers are difficult to assemble. Therefore, you would look for something easy and efficient. Any juicer, adhering efficiency, and ease of assembling should be prioritized and considered before buying.
Price
Price is another factor that needs consideration. Usually, the expensive juicers are newer models with upgraded features and better structures. Often the manufacturer uses plastic-free BPA, and the auger is made up of super-strong and reliable materials.
That being said, you don’t always get what you pay for. Maybe the price is way too much compared to the features. Or maybe the features are not equivalent to the value and benefits you seek. But be ready to pay more for premium quality.
Feed Chute
Usually, the feed chutes are smaller, and you have to cut the produce into smaller pieces. This consumes more time and energy. Having said that, there are juicers with wide and larger chutes to get this sorted.
Hence, an extra step of chopping the materials into smaller pieces can be avoided. For hard vegetables like carrots, it is advisable to look for a juicer with a chute size to accommodate such dimensions.
Weight
This depends upon your preference. Typically, masticating juicers are heavier and a little bulky as compared to generic juicers. A lighter juicer would be easier to move, and being portable would add a plus point to the quality list it possesses.
The weight may vary from juicer to juicer. The lightest models are less careless than 10 pounds, while the heavier ones can range up to 20 to 28 pounds.
