Squeeze the day with the very best cold press juicers

Best for: powerful pulp control

This powerful juicer easily handles tough ingredients and lets you choose your preferred pulp level with two handy filters. With a large juice pitcher and pulp container, it’s perfect for whipping up big batches, and its compact design saves valuable bench space.

122 out of 140 users gave this machine a five-star rating on the Ninja site, highlighting its excellent quality, easy-to-clean design and quiet operation. It’s praised as a go-to for refreshing, healthy juice and valued for being compact and sturdy.

“Ninja has made a juicer that is truly never clogging,” said a reviewer. “The juicer comes with the base, tamper, auger, juice jug, pulp container, two pulp control filter and a pulp spout. The set also came with a recipe book that has several decent recipes in it.”

“The set up was a breeze and getting started was so easy. We made fresh lemonade and it took less than five minutes to do. Clean up was just as easy. The juicer comes apart and with a quick rinse, it was clean and ready to go again. I thought making fresh juice was going to be more trouble than it is worth, but not with Ninja!”
