Hurom HU-100 Slow Juicer Review

The Hurom slow juicer ensures that juicing enthusiasts get the maximum amount of nutrition and flavor from fruits, vegetables and grasses with a dual-stage extraction process. The juicer, which measures 9.8 x 6.8 x 15.8 inches (width x diameter x height), crushes produce before pressing it through the screen for high juice yields and minimum wastage. Not only is it economical and quiet due to the squeezing, rather than grinding juicer motion, the Hurom also yields 50% more juice than a centrifugal juicer in half the time.

Thanks to the auger juicing style, the juice extracted is smooth, foam and pulp-free, and of a consistent texture. The slower extraction rate means that juices don't lose any of their antioxidants or vitamins to heat. In addition to this, the Hurom takes up a minimal amount of counter space, and its self-cleaning screen holder makes cleaning up a breeze.

Fast Juicing, Nutrient-Rich Juice

People who used the Hurom were happy to find that the juicer actually as juiced quickly as a centrifugal juicer and was extremely easy to use. Review writers who were tired of having to force carrots in to their juicers were pleased that the Hurom's quiet auger motion actually drew produce in. One user in particular was taken with how the Hurom's design ensured that the auger never became clogged with pulp.

Juicers who were particular about the quality of their juice liked the Hurom juicer, with more than one review writer citing the fact that it juiced leafy vegetables without any problem as the reason. Juicier produce such as cucumbers and apples were also juiced with no problem either. Users also reported that juicing efficiency was high, as the pulp produced contained relatively little moisture. As the manufacturer promised, the juice remained cool, was practically foam-free, while the dual-stage pulp screens ensured that only a minimal amount of pulp wound up in the juice.

Looks Good, Easy To Clean

Users also liked the appearance of the Hurom, which they felt was attractive and small enough to leave out on a kitchen counter top. However, it was also easy to store the juicer thanks to its small size. More than one review found the self-cleaning feature very helpful if a person didn't want flavors to mix. They thought that just clearing the juicer with 2-3 cups of water was a great timesaver compared to disassembling the juicer for cleaning. It also made it easier to clean the juicer afterwards.

Actual cleaning of the juicer was also a fuss-free chore. Most users found that it took only 3-5 minutes to rinse and wash the removable parts by hand. Owners of the juicer found that a spray of warm soapy water was sufficient to clean the juicer thoroughly.

Doesn't Deal Well With Whole Produce

Users who were pressed for time found it tiresome to have to cut their produce in to sizes small enough to fit in to the feed chute. Those who didn't do so found that fibrous vegetables like celery would clog up the auger, reduce juicing efficiency and cause leaks around the lower seal. Putting in whole fruit also caused the juicer to collect pulp quickly and jam.
