What's the best cold press juicer if you actually use it every week?

I've been thinking about getting a cold press juicer because I'm tired of buying expensive bottled juices that disappear in two days. I figured it'd probably pay for itself eventually if I actually stick with it.

The only thing holding me back is that everyone seems to recommend something different. Some people say certain juicers get way more juice out of vegetables, others say they're a nightmare to clean and end up sitting in the cupboard after a month.

I'd mostly be making juices with apples, carrots, oranges, spinach, celery, and whatever fruit happens to be on sale that week. Easy cleanup is a big deal because I know I'll stop using it if it takes 20 minutes to wash.

For those who own a cold press juicer, what did you end up buying? Are you still using it regularly, or do you wish you'd gone with something else?

How long is a sealed, cold pressed store-bought juice good for after it expires?

So last night I went to a different Kroger than normal and I bought a few greens and ginger juices from evolution. I went to have one today and I saw that they expired on June 14.. I already ripped up the receipt so I can’t exchange or return them. I wasn’t sure what sub to go to, but maybe the juicing community can help me out haha! Are these safe to drink? Or should I pitch them?

Completed 4 day water fast and then 3day juice fast but I'm kinda forced to quit due to "looking bad" at work lol any advice

Did anyone go thrugh this? So exactly like a week ago I decided to start a detox first due to unbearable heat in my country. Then after a few days on water I felt naturally now is the perfect time to transition to juices. It's something I wanted to do for a longer time and this heat was the perfect thing to do.

Long story short I work a high demand kitchen job with lots of stress and today especially people are giving me wierd looks. I drank a hell Lotta juice but now I'm out. Im gonna be forced to start eating... Anyone else experienced it? It's too bad cause the benefits are huge

What's your go-to summer juice recipe

Sharing mine first: cherry tomatoes, blueberries, raspberries, and grapes. The color comes out this deep red, looking almost too good to drink. Taste is bright and a little tart, way more interesting than anything I've bought at a store.

My thing is, I usually do this after dinner at night, not in the morning like most people. The canoly 3-in-1 does sorbets too, so half the time I end up standing there trying to decide whether I want juice or sorbet. Having that option at night when I'm not rushing is kind of the best part. I'll throw the same fruit in and just decide last minute based on my mood.

Would love to know what's your fav summer juice recipe?

(Mostly) foraged and home grown greens.

I have an abundance of black raspberries growing in my yard. Blended about a cup of them with some dandelion and Broadleaf Plantain, also from my yard. Grew some kale and lettuce and some store bought carrots, an apple and a lemon.

Smoothie Personalization Recommendations

From time to time, I see a lot of posts regarding smoothie recommendations. I started to build a website and hopefully/eventually an app that can recommend a smoothie recipe based on your inputs. The benefit is that the recommendations are not only personalized by your own profile (age, weight, outcomes) but also gives combinations that are better. For example, a lot of people combine bananas and berries. It’s efficient if you had berries with other fruits and not bananas. Another is having a citrus element in spinach which will enhance iron absorption. There’s literally thousands of such combinations that are useful. Would you be interested in using it? Or are you using ChatGPT or similar AI apps for recipes? I can post the basic website to show the idea if anyone is interested. Thanks.

Kuving poor customer service and return policies.

I am extremely disappointed with Kuvings' customer service and return policy.

I had a part break on my existing Kuvings juicer and, anticipating that the repair might be expensive or impossible, I purchased a brand-new replacement machine directly from the company. While waiting to determine whether my old machine could be repaired, the new unit arrived.

After several weeks of troubleshooting, I discovered that my original juicer could, in fact, be repaired. The replacement machine remained exactly as it was delivered—still sealed, unopened, and unused in its original box. Unfortunately, by the time I confirmed the repair, approximately five weeks had passed since the purchase.

Despite the fact that the product has never been opened, assembled, or used, Kuvings refused to accept the return because it was beyond their rigid 30-day return window.

Good customer service requires judgment, flexibility, and common sense. Refusing to accept an unopened product worth hundreds of dollars simply because it is a few days outside an arbitrary deadline demonstrates a complete lack of concern for customer satisfaction and loyalty. A company that values long-term relationships with its customers would recognize that accepting a return on an untouched product is not only reasonable but also good business.

Policies exist to protect businesses from abuse, not to punish loyal customers acting in good faith. In this case, Kuvings chose policy over people, leaving me with an expensive, unopened machine I never needed and cannot use.

The product itself may be well made, but customer service is ultimately what defines a brand. Based on this experience, I would think twice before purchasing from Kuvings again and would encourage prospective buyers to carefully consider whether they are comfortable dealing with a company that appears unwilling to make reasonable accommodations for its customers.

Best Juicer for budget of £150?

I previously owned nutribullet 800w Centrifugal juicer. I left this with family as I moved. It was an OK product. I found it created more fluff than juice at times and kinds got tired of having to push down on the unit to crush the fruits/veg.

I'm on the market for a new juicer. Currently looking at AMZCHEF automatic cold press juicer.

Any recommends? Ideally I want something that automatically cuts fruits/veg and just easy to clean

Juice prepping this morning

I made 4 variations. 2 with 80/20% veggies to fruit ratio, 2 with approx 30-40% fruit. All were delicious. I like to save a little extra chopped veggies for my salads if I have some leftover. I froze some extra pineapple and watermelon for my smoothies.

is fiber-less juice ok? what do u do with all the pulp?

so i'm considering doing juice detox. which i havent done before. i've learned from a video not to use a normal blender but a cold press slow masticating juicer. which separates the fiber/pulp.

however i know that the fiber is what slows sugar absorption and feeds good gut bacteria. i'm concerned about blood sugar spikes from concentrated fruit juice devoid of fiber to slow absorption. also there'll be so much pulp waste.

what are your experience with glucose spikes? also what did you guys do with all the separated solids?

plus, what supplements did you take to make up for lack of nutrients? and did u add protein powder?

TIA!

Zulay 9 in 1 flat press plate questions

Does anyone own a zulay kitchen 9 in 1 juicer? I was wondering what the flat press plate and base were made of? I bought a different brand recently because it had flat press plates, but they were made of plastic and broke after 3 apples. I'm wondering if the zulay plates were any higher quality.

Back on the juice after 9 years

I had great results many years ago by replacing 2 of my daily meals with juice, I felt brilliant and the weight melted off me. So I’m really hoping the same can happen again because my health is terrible these days.

This one is the mean green but with a lot less apple.
