Best juicers for 2021

Entry-level juicers produce strained juice in seconds as blades spin at high speeds to chop your produce and push it through a mesh sieve. These centrifugal machines can be messy and loud, but nothing quite beats fresh juice at home, especially if you're using your own homegrown produce.

When it comes to picking the best juicer for your needs, there are a few things you should know. We tested eight of the best-selling and top-reviewed centrifugal juicers to find out which ones will give you the most OJ for your orange. So grab yourself a green juice or nut milk and keep reading -- here's how it all shakes out

Hamilton Beach was the best performer when it came to getting the most citrus juice from oranges and green juice from kale (the top fruit and vegetable most juicers find on their grocery list). We also test apple juice for hard fruit (you'll find that winner below). This 800-watt juicer has just one speed. Every other juicer we tested was a twin gear juicer and had at least two speeds, proving more isn't always, well, more.

At just $60, it also takes the title for the best juicer on a budget out there today when you want to juice fruit and leafy vegetables. It's dishwasher-safe, too, which, in my opinion, is just as important as juice quality. My only complaint is that the Big Mouth doesn't come with a juice receptacle to place beneath the spout. Many other models do include this, but if you're juicing straight into your own glass or pitcher, it shouldn't be a problem.
