Ever bought something that looked awesome in the store but turned
out to not be so awesome when you got home? It has happened to all of
us. Buying something without fully knowing what we're getting is a
common purchasing mistake. This can be prevented if only one does some
research first before buying.
Shopping for a Best juicer is no
different. To avoid making the same mistake with your juicer, here is a
list of things that you shouldn't do:
1. Impulse buying.
You
shouldn't just buy the first juicer that you see. A juicer should be
looked at as an investment (for good health, that is), and in order to
find the right one, you should have several options to choose from and
choose the one that will give you the most benefit.
2. Buy the cheapest model.
Money is a big factor when buying something. And for
people who don't have that much to spend, they often end up settling for
one that their money can buy. You may think you're saving a lot by
doing this, but the reality is that you're really not. Cheap machines
produce cheap results. Try and get a middle of the road juicer to ensure
efficiency, quality and durability.
3. Buy the most expensive one.
Just because it is expensive doesn't mean that it's the best. Many
expensive brands can also fall short of the much needed benefits that a
juicer should have. Make sure it meets your needs before you buy.
4. Buy a juicer with fixed parts.
Having removable and easy to assemble
parts is always a plus for a juicer. Cleaning the juicer after using it
is important. To be able to do it hassle free with parts that are easy
to disassemble for thorough cleaning is a must in choosing the right
juicer.
5. Buy a juicer model with short warranty period.
If a
product has a long warranty period, this means that their product is
definitely durable.
6. Buy the wrong type of juicer.
You have to
consider the food that you want to juice before buying a juicer. There
are different types of juicers, and to be able to yield the maximum
amount of juice from a fruit or vegetable, you have to have the specific
juicer for the job. You can buy a multi-purpose juicer if you want to
be able to juice anything, although it's a bit expensive. But if you are
looking to juice wheatgrass and other leafy vegetables, then buying one
made specifically this purpose will work much better for you.
7. Buy a juicer with features that you do not really need.
The reason why
some juicers are expensive is because they come with many added features
that you do not really need. An example would be an added scooper for
the pulp when you can use a spoon, or a juice container when you already
have a glass. Focus of essentials, not bells and whistles.
8. Buy fast juicers.
Ironically, slow juicers are the best juicers. Not only
because they can yield more juice than fast juicers, but also because
slow juicers generate small amounts of heat. High amounts of heat can
destroy enzymes and nutrients naturally present in juice. This is the
reason why centrifugal juicers are now starting to diminish in the
market (although you can still find them in most stores)-they tend to
generate more heat that can directly affect the juice that it makes. A
masticating juicer is a kind of juicer that doesn't produce much heat
and that is why this is the one that you should find.
9. Buy a juicer without inspecting its features first.
One thing that you should
look for in a juicer is the size of the chute. You wouldn't want to
spend your entire morning chopping the fruits or vegetables that you
want to juice, right? A juicer with a large chute can definitely save
you time. Another thing to consider is the location of the pulp catcher.
It should be in an easily accessible part of the juicer so that
removing the accumulated pulp will be easy.
10. Buy a juicer without reading juicer ratings and reviews.
Take note that juicer ratings
can help you decide whether the juicer that you are eyeing is in fact
the best there is. There are many websites dedicated to making this
knowledge public. They can inform you about the latest and top of the
line juicers that many people have tried and recommended. You can also
read many testimonials on how efficient different models can be. They
usually specify the features that a particular product has, and from
here you can see if those features will help you.
11. Buy a juicer without testing it first.
If you're to buy a juicer at a store or
online, you have to make sure that you see a demonstration first of how
the juicer works. Take note of the sound of the juicer as it does the
juicing. You may want to think twice if the juicer is very loud.
12. Buy a juicer that takes too much effort to use.
A juicer should be a
no-brainer tool. If you have to click "thousands" (okay, this is an
exaggeration, but you know what I mean) of buttons to make simple apple
juice, then it's a no-no.
Avoiding these twelve common pitfalls will help you to choose a juicer that fits your needs, lifestyle and budget.
