Philips Viva Collection Masticating Juicer, 150W, 1L, XL Tube, Quick Clean Technology, HomeID App, Dishwasher-safe Parts, Drip Stop, Easy Assembly, Compact Storage, Black (HR1889/71)

Best best juicer for small family. Work really well, easy to assemble and easily to clean. Compact design simply the best. Motor works really excellent. I strongly recommend the product.

Fantastic. Delivered following day. I bought a used item which, looks brand new with all items, packaging and introductions. I used one batch of celery, 1 pack, washed it and juiced, made 500mls- perfect. Fast, quiet and not much washing afterwards. Easy to reassemble. Powerful, compact, dry pulp, great quality, fully recommend. Great item

Despite the package arrived damaged, the product was perfectly intact! I've been wanting this juicer for a while, and it works ok. The only negative is cleaning it, is a bit messy. I would rather have one that put the dirt aside rather than on the main structure, but overall ok! Great value for the price and the pulp is very dry after extraction Easy to assemble and now I can enjoy lot of fresh and healthy juices!

So far I am pleased with this kitchen gadget. its very easy to use and clean, i don't tend to read the manual but with this item it super easy to figure out how to assemble it. So far i've been making ginger shots and each time the juice comes out smooth. The pulp comes out easy, I tend to clean the gadget and dry it straight away by hand. am not sure how well it cleans in the washing machine. I was so impressed that I ordered another one for my mum, I hope she'll like hers. i would defo recommend this item to anyone who'd like a simple yet efficient juicer that's easy to maintain, clean and store.

I absolutely love this juicer! I had purchased another juicer afore this one that was really disappointing. It let loads of pulp and seeds through and was a nightmare to clean. This Phillips juicer is a joy to use. Quickly and easily juices whatever I’ve thrown at it with resulting smooth juice with no bits and the best thing about this juicer is how easy it is to clean. Everything comes apart really simply to be washed. You could really get away with just running all the pieces under the tap - it really is that simple! The machine itself is sturdy and seems good quality.

Once we got this machine few months ago, we do not have to buy any juices anymore. Keep i nmind though - you will have a lot of waste, and as this is cold press a lot of juice will end up in the waste. However this is the best method to not 'burn' the vitamins away. Make sure all vegetables that are rock hard are cut to smaller chunks, and peeled properly. Making pauses between each will help the juice to fully drain. Also if you do vegetable of fruit that will most likely block the filter. It is a good practice to take the filter out - use a brush to clean it off and slide it back in and start using the machien again - this way you will 'save' a lot of juice from going to waste. Also if you a re doing a big batch of veggies/fruit do pause every few minutes and clean the filter, as the size of the filter is quite small it can easily gather too much fiber and wont be as effective. You can see this with your eyes - just observe as the juice flow decreases - that means the filter have to be cleaned. If you are lazy it will work anyway - but you wiill end up wasting more material and producing less juice. Of course if anyone is wonderign is it cheaper to buy a juice? The Answer is yes. Of course the factory made juices are much cheaper and easier to get. With this machine you have to bring in kilograms of veggies in order to make few cups of juice. And take time to peel everything, wash it all of. And home made juice is not pasterusied so it will go off quicker. But if you like fresh juice and you will drink it quick, and you do not mind / or you enjoy making things yourself, it will give you a sense of acomplishement and also give you healthier juice that is tasty and do not have any added chemicals. A good ser of tips for the begginers will be : - look up recepies and plan what juice combo you will make before yo ugo shopping/gardening -you do not have to push big items like apple quarter or oranges through the lid hole , you can lift the lid and put the item inside one unit at the time ( its lever action , a safety mechanism) -make sure you do not juice thigns that should not be juiced ( avoid pears,berries etc) - clean the machine well right after juice, you can use hydrogen peroxide 3% solution to clean food contacted parts, like once a month to keep bacteries at bay - do not stress the motor by doing hard things like carrots and sweet potato for longer than fe minutes, give it some rest by doing apples etc in between so the motor wont heat up - this is not industiral grade machine so it shoudl not be abused and used 24h , this is hobby grade household item, to prolong its life make sure you take good care of it, just slicking big chunks with a knife takes few seconds for the machine motor and mechanical parts this few seconds can save months of lifew time -I found that for filter cleaning the most ideal is a plastic brush, brush it on both sides using cold water and it all comes of in few seconds. - never leave machine dirty with food inside, as fruit, especialyl sweet ones will spoil vey quickly and any leftovers can contaminate future batches of juice - you can use a piece of lime/lemon added to your juice, in a glass jar (easy to clean) and keep in in the fridge, depending on the juice you made it will last longer, fore example carrot juice as it is quite sweet will stay fresh for about 24h, while orange can last even 48 Overall the machine is great- it is the best juicer we ever had. The motor is on the side and it is sealed with the rubber gasket, so in any case of leaking the juice wont go onto the electronics even if it leaks, which is good - as cheaper juicers usually have motor right under the juice container, which can lead to horrible scenarios. The operation of the button is quite easy, one button goes forward, the other is a reverse if somethign got stuck ( if you put too much at the time). The machine have a security feature so it wont let you put fingers inside. Its good but still I will advise all children 100% time suprvision, as the motor is very strong. The machine does generate noise during operation with sqiucking etc, so you have to keep in mind that this is cold press juicer - it will always make sounds, it is still quieter that other types.

After looking for a while for a juice we decided to get with this one, hoping that a more expensive one would be better. How wrong we were! Machine is very loud and the suction when in and adding fruit or veg is very strong and near impossible to add whilst on. Not only that, it’s that powerful after blending a beetroot some of the juice fired out of the top and over my newly decorated kitchen walls. Extremely disappointing and unsatisfied

I have lost nearly a stone in the last 3 months with no effort all, just by a good range of juice when ever I feel like it. As a result my desire for sweet things is very limited. Below I have descibed the difference having used botth, but this jjuicer is very much the best, and well worth the extra. Not so expensive as a kitchen gadget if you look at the cartons of juice at the supermarket. You are making 'real juice and extracting virtually all liquid from the pieces of fruit and vegetables. It will not be froth! As a result I have lost the teemption to snake on sweet things both in the house and when out shopping.I first used a cettriffugal juicer (alsomade by phillips and looks a bit like a bomb. About a month ago I bought this masticating model. best decisil The difference between this and the other Philips juicer is the way the juice is extracted This juicer has augers which gradually squash the juice out of fruit or vegetables. The end result is juice and pulp which is relatively dry. The price if these masticating juicers are more expensive, but to me much mre attractive to drink. The centrifugal juicers whizzes the fruit and vegetables at great speed producing frothy juice and a great deal of damp pulp.. Pleasant, but not juice as you might be expecting. I have used bot and both have their faults, but aI prefer the juice of the masticating juicer - much more juice out of the fruit - and much more of it. An apple, beetroot and grapefruit juice filled a large glass, with about 1 1/2 inches measure in the same glass, easy to throw away in comparison to the centrifuge juicer, There is not the quantity of pulp fibre filling then bottom container of the 'bomb' or getting every where when you are cleaning juicer. The claim is that you can use whole fruit, I have cut into pieces , and the apple could have been smallere as it got stuck in the auger. They both have their design faults and when paying £100 one would expect something to be done about them: The leaflet describing how to set it up - an exploded diagram with no desription - there is another picture on the box. Language may e a problem, but a better description and a few recipes.- even if 'multi-lingual ' pictures. The juice is collected in a tray, a spout to help pouring into a glass, The container that the pulp id disensed into does not fit neatly into the body of the juicer. Given that the centrifugal juicer is very well designed and includes a jug it is clear that Phillips thought the centrifugal juicer worth the extra effort. One of thing that could have been included in the masticating juicer is a bottle brush as it is very difficult to remove pulp betwen the plastic tubes - I suggest you get a narrow brush brush when you buy the juicer. When you collect a caddy full of pulp from the centrifugal juicer it will fill quickly and be very heavy,, Whereas with the masticating juicer it will hold more and be much lighter, A week's worth can be an extra load for the dustmen! are a treatment. for constipation- and causes..... it taken to access!
