The latest juicers are simple to use, extract more juice than before and parts can usually be popped in the dishwasher. The latest models are either fast, centrifugal models, which shred fruit using blades for smooth results, or slower masticating ones, which crush fruit for juice with more fibre.

Before we share our shortlist, it's important that you know the lingo...

  • Variable speed settings mean different types of fruit and vegetables can be used; hard needs high speeds, soft releases juice at lower speeds.
  • Wide feeding tubes reduce the amount of chopping needed before adding the fruit or veg.
  • Extra-large chutes can swallow whole apples.
  • Masticating models usually have one setting.
  • Accessories range from smoothie, puréeing and pressing attachments to lidded jugs for fridges.

Best for soft fruit
A Froojie disc is ideal for smoothies, sauces, dips, soups and ice cream. The five-speed model also has two Nutri discs for hard fruit and veg, and a juicer disc. Dishwasher-safe parts.

Best for maximum goodness
A large screw to press, rather than squeeze, juice from fruit (and herbs) means that more of the goodness is preserved. It comes with two 1L jugs and has dishwasher-safe parts.

Best for super-sharp blades
