I've been juicing for years. I own 2 other juicers (a masticating juicer Green Star GS1000 Twin Gear Juicer and another centrifugal juicer, the excellent Philips HR1861 Whole Fruit Juicer, Aluminium. This new Philips juicer may well be my favourite.I've been loyal to my old Philips workhorse for years (so much so that, when the first one fell apart after years of heavy use, I replaced it with an identical one). It's very quick, making a juice door-to-door in 15 minutes from plugging in the juicer to preparing the fruit and veg to cleaning the machine and sitting down with a glass of fresh juice. It's quick and efficient, easy to use and sturdy.This new Philips juicer (the next step up from the Philips HR1836/01 Viva Collection Compact Juicer,1.5 Litre, 500 Watt - Brushed Aluminium which has a smaller 500W motor) shows where juicing design and technology have developed in the years since I began juicing: it has the same size motor (700W), the same wide chute that takes whole apples, but takes up just over half the space on the worktop. It also comes with a self-rinsing feature which really speeds up cleaning. It's a really well thought out bit of kit that's a pleasure to use and produces lovely fresh juice.My tips for happy juicing are:- Buy a juice recipe book such as Juice Master Keeping It Simple: Over 100 Delicious Juices and Smoothies- Clean your juicer before you sit down to drink your juice: that way, you won't come back to caked on pulp after you've finished drinking your juice- Focus on juicing vegetables, only really adding fruit as part of recipes (taking the fibre out of fruit will just give you a sugar rush). Juicing recipes are really delicious.Top tips for chooosing a juicer:- Don't go for a tiny cheap juicer: it'll only be slow, fiddly to use, give wet pulp (and therefore take more fruit & veg ... and hence be expensive to run) & will end up in the back of the cupboard- Start with a centrifugal juicer around this price range; masticating juicers are only for dedicated juicers who are committed to juicing regularyl. My masticating juicer makes the best quality juices, especially of green leafy vegetables, but only if I've got 45 minutes to spare, which generally I haven't. It does get the most juice from fruit and veg (the pulp is very dry). It's the slowness of the whole process that means it's saved for best though.- If you want to make juicing a part of your life, you're more likely to do so if the juicer sits on the side the whole time rather than being tucked away in a cupboard, so whichever juicer you get will need to have a footprint that'll fit on your kitchen worktopIn summary:Pros:- Full-size 700W motor- Full-size jumbo feeding tube- Suction feet that really do grip onto the work surface effectively- Small footprint- Whizzy self-rinsing function that makes cleaning quicker and simpler than many other juicers- Comes ready-assembled with a quick start guide printed on the inside lid of the boxQueries:- The locking arms are plastic rather than metal - they look and feel sturdy, but only time will tell- Only 1 speed (though I can't really remember being that bothered by having 2 speeds on my usual juicer)- Small internal pulp collecter (rather than a large one on the side) - this is what makes the footprint so much smallerNote on the black and brushed aluminium models:- The black model has a black plastic body, black spout, black locking arms and black trim on the to of the feeding tube. The brushed aluminium model is identical except the body is brushed aluminium. To my taste, there's a bit too much black trim going on and I'm not sure black really fits with my kitchen, but that's a matter of personal preference.

I had the ‘baby brother’ version of this – the HR1836/01 Viva juicer which was essentially the same other than the size and the power (500w and 1.5l rather than this 700w 2l version). And I was keen to see how this compared. I have both this brushed steel version and the black plastic version – they are the same apart from the finish so your choice is just based on your personal preference. The black plastic does not look ‘cheap’ through – and given that both have black plastic on them anyway, it makes little difference (it’s only the lower part which is brushed steel).The juicer needs assembly, but no more than it requires after washing – so the initial construction is good practice for what you’ll have to do after use anyway.It’s dead easy and there’s only one way for it to go together. The various parts are moulded to fit. Once assembled (and washed before first use) it’s ready to go. To use simply drop fruit through the tube at the top and turn the power-switch – the fruit is pressed against the rotating blades and the liquid pushed through a metal mesh. In order to made sure that the fruit is processed, the plastic ‘dobber’ is inserted into the tube so that you can gently press the fruit down. Once that piece is obliterated, insert another piece and keep going until the jug is full. The jug is placed beneath the outlet to capture all the juice.Once you've juiced everything, this disassembles quickly and can be washed in soapy water. There is the option of putting cold water through the tube to facilitate cleaning – by switching the machine on it makes sure that all fruit pulp is loosened and it makes cleaning even easier. The quality of the juice is excellent, there are rarely any bits in it. Extraction is very efficient and the pulp at the end is pretty dry. I find that three or four apples and a few big carrots is enough to produce enough small glasses of juice for 4 people.The inlet tube at the top is considerably bigger than the smaller model and you can fit a whole (medium sized) applied into the chute now without having to slice the apple into wedges first. However, I find that slicing in half makes it easier to juice (the blades seem to have something better to hack into rather than a smooth rounded surface) and by doing so I’ve noticed that less pressure is required to press the apples in, and that the pulp is dryer – proving that more liquid is extracted. A bigger chute means you can get more in at once and that speeds things up a little. The main design improvement is the jug – it now comes with a lid which fits the outlet of the juicer – this means that there are no splashes or spills, you don’t want to waste that previous juice!In a nutshell: a bigger version of the old juicer, if you put fruit in whole is doesn't seem as efficient, so don’t be too tempted by that huge inlet tube! However the juice extraction is very good and the pulp is great for your composter. Easy to use, not too noisy and it’s something I use regularly now. And in case you were wondering – apples, carrots and a generous ‘thumb’ of ginger, that’s my low-cost favourite juice!

The Viva is indeed a compact little unit. It doesn't take up a lot of worktop space at all, which is definitely something in its favour, as these kind of devices are easily forgotten about once they get migrated to kitchen cupboards.Not only is it diminutive, it's also rather a smart little thing with its red trim (other colours are available) and visible stainless steel components inside. Provided you keep it clean, of course. This is not a huge plasticky kitchen wart.Remember firstly that it's not a smoothy maker - there are certain fruits (e.g. bananas) which it's not designed to handle.Most recommended are: Apples, Pineapple, Beetroot (yuck), Celery, Cucumber, Carrots, Spinach, Melon,Tomatoes, Pomegranates, Oranges & Grapes.Not recommended are starchy things like Bananas, Papayas, Avocados (do people really try to juice avocados?) and also very fibrous things like Sugar Cane. However, you can do Ginger - it recommends it in a recipe in the user guide.As with any machine like this, after juicing there is going to be an amount of cleanup required (although not a huge amount), and the thing which requires the most effort is getting the pulp out of the stainless filter. Probably the easiest way to clean it is going to be in the dishwasher, though you can rub it clean under a running tap in the sink. If you tend to run your dishwasher daily like we do, this is probably not an issue or you. Otherwise, juicing a couple of oranges for a glass of juice every morning may become a bit of a chore if you need to clean the filter by hand.It's a whizz to use (it's best to push fruit through the juicing blades slowly to get maximum yield) and easy to take apart and re-assemble. The only part you might need to store separately from the main unit is the juice collector, which is the size of a large cup.The juice that comes out is - well - juicy, fresh and smooth. Exactly what most people will be looking for.In summary - here's not really anything to criticize about it. It would be great if it could somehow clean its own filter, but then it would cost about 4x the price and be 8x the size and weight. As it stands, this is a great little juicer which will look great on anyone's counter top. The only question is how often you're really going to use it. That question only you can answer.

► I have included a video review. Please note that depending on which device you're review this on, it may not be visible.- Here's a breakdown of the video review:∙ 00:15 - HR1863 & HR1867 Comparison.∙ 02:31 - Juicing.∙ 03:40 - Results.∙ 03:57 - Rinsing.∙ 04:32 - Cleaning.∙ 05:20 - Re-putting parts together.∙ 06:00 - Final Opinion..·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.·:*¨*:·.If you're looking for a great juicer that's not only simple to use, but easy to clean and looks good, well then, the 'HR1867' is a great juicer to have. That said, there is an identical juicer available from Philips: The 'HR1863', which is around £60 cheaper (at the time of doing this review)than this version.I was confused to whether this newer version would actually be best for consumers, so I had asked Philips on what the actual difference is between the two. The response I got was basically saying that they would recommend the latest model because, and I quote: "the design was refined as to ameliorate the juicing experience for our customers"; as for the actual differences, they stated that they couldn't say as they are confidential due to the details being technical. Hmm.Well I can tell you the difference based on my own personal experience. The difference? The pusher/feeder is now hollow with several holes at the bottom all lined up. This allows you to quickly rinse out the juicer whilst the motor is running as it lets out a nice flow of water on to the sieve. I wouldn't recommend tipping water down the feeding tube on the old model... It will make a lot of mess (I know from experience). The rinse feature is ideal for those who like juicing multiple different juices and don't want the remnants to be mixed with the next, or before cleaning.Other than that, both juicer models equally do a fantastic job at juicing and they're both super easy to clean, making either one an ideal choice.If at the time of purchase there is a big difference in price still, then weigh up whether having the latest model and the extra rinse feature is worth the extra, if you feel it isn't, then go for the older model (HR1863), whichever one you choose, I'm sure you'll be happy with the juicing results.

We got this to replace (and upgrade) our HR1836 juicer, also by Philips, which in turn replaced another Philips model, the R1861.The first, an R1861 described as a 'Whole Fruit Juicer', we ended up giving away, still functioning perfectly. It was excellent in some respects, but rather too fiddly to dismantle and clean. It also wound up with liquid inside the 'pusher' component, which we were unable to remove and which put us off using it. A less squeamish pal took it off our hands!The HR1836 that we replaced it with was much easier to clean, but suffered from puny capacity. Philips seem to learn something new with each iteration,and this new HR1857/71 combines the ease of cleaning of the HR1836 (though I'll agree with other reviewers that it doesn't live up to the self proclaimed 1-minute clean claim) with the larger capacity of the R1861. Another notable improvement is that the 'pusher' is a two-part piece with a removable top, which means that if any liquid does get into it, it can be dismantled and cleaned.So far so good. Other good features include the power and efficiency. Like others, I've noticed less left-over moisture in the residual pulp. Thus far I have only one minor critical observation: one of my favourite and most regular juices includes avocados, and I've noticed on one or two occasions that the avocados got through the machine in a still-lumpy form, which I was just a little surprised and disappointed by.My biggest problem, however, and I use that adjective deliberately, is the overall size of the machine. It's footprint is fine (and talking of footprints, the suction feet give a good grip!). Maybe a future iteration of Philips design will see increased capacity without increased height? It's the height that's the problem: this won't fit, in its assembled state (and that's the only way to store it efficiently, otherwise it's a mess of bits), on our work-surfaces whilst simultaneously under our upper-cupboards, much less inside any of our cupboards.But, aside from deciding where to store it, this is an excellent device. Our HR1836 still works perfectly as well, so that'll hopefully find a new home, as did the previous one!

Overall this is a very good juicer - it's powerful & attractive, with the widest feeding tube I've ever found. However, I dispute Phillips' claim that it can be cleaned quickly.The shape of this juicer means it's tall but not too wide, so doesn't take up a huge amount of space on my kitchen work surface. At 800W it's very powerful - and this results in a lot of noise. It's not my first juicer so I knew what to expect but this is very loud - like someone using power tools in your kitchen! The extra large feeding tube is very handy, too - it can fit small apples whole but I'd still recommend coring them first.However, I'm not convinced by Phillips' new design. The first juicer I owned (also a Phillips)featured a design used by cheaper juicers these days, which consists of a pulp container on the back. To empty the pulp, just remove & empty - job done. With this one, however, the pulp container is housed within the middle of the juicer. Which is why I don't think it's anywhere near as easy to clean as my old one. On paper, it sounds great - pour water into it, switch it on & rinse it out quickly (although the rather awful, tiny instruction leaflet which I've come to associate with Phillips wasn't particularly clear & I didn't realise until I'd used it a couple of times). But the thing is, first you have to disassemble it to dispose of the pulp, then reassemble it again before running the cleaning cycle, before disassembling it once more so you can clean the remaining mess with a damp cloth (the cleaning cycle does not get anything like all of it) & once dry, assembling it again. While my old Phillips didn't look anywhere near as sexy, it was just a case of removing the pulp, taking it apart & rinsing - which was actually less messing about.Overall it's a very good juicer. Just be aware that it's very noisy & despite Phillips' claim, it's a bit of a faff to clean.

Over the years, I've purchased a number of juicers, all of which promised to deliver the goods, but none of which actually did; the main problem was waiting an age for the machine to produce a small quantity of not very appetising juice. All of the juicers eventually found their way to charity shops, some quicker than others, but that will not be the case with the Philips HR1857/71 Viva Collection Quick Clean Juicer.The first thing you notice is that this is a big machine, but solidly built and attractive. The base unit, which contains the motor, sits on four suction feet, so it sits firmly, but doesn't jiggle about when running. The rest of the unit is modular, which makes it easy to take apart and reassemble,and contains a tray for collecting the pulp, a spout for delivering the juice, a shredding unit and a domed top with a feeding tube, which is wide enough to take small fruit whole, and a plunger. A lidded collecting jug is provided, which sits beside the unit and fits neatly onto the spout.To use, drop the fruit into the tube and insert the plunger. Switch on and press down on the plunger; soft fruit such as apples and orange (all I've tried so far) is processed almost before you have time to blink, and the juice is delivered quickly into the collecting jug. Poor into a grass and drink; there's no doubt about it, freshly produced juice is so much tastier.When you've finished juicing, cleaning is a breeze; dismantle the unit, tip the pulp into a bin, and wash the parts under the tap. Everything, except the base unit, which just needs a wipe down, can be put in the dish washer. Once cleaned, reassemble and it ready for use.This is undoubtedly the best juicer I've owned. It has been given a permanent place on the kitchen work surface, and sits ready for use.

The HR1857/71 is a handsome looking beast from Philips who claim to be the number one brand for juicers.After giving this machine a test drive I can see why.The problem with juicers is that although they can work well it is such a 'faff' cleaning the things up afterwards that it hardly seems worth the effort.Why not just buy some juice?Well this machine is easily cleaned in just one minute.Yeah, Right to use that well known double negative!But I was amazed at how true the claim was.Simply put the machine is so easily cleaned that you really have no barriers to using it.Now a piece of advice.If you put the machine away in a cupboard you will not use it.It needs to out and on show so that youtake a way the effort of having to dig the thing out to use.The good news is that it does look rather elegant on show,(full marks there Philips).All the surfaces including the the electro polished sievea are easy clean.It is in fact diswasher proof!After a quick wipe of the sieve and after you clean the machine with water and the machine is ready, clean and waiting to go next time.If you are juicing the same fruits or mixing then there is no need to flush first.That's a wipe on the outers and a flush of the system with water if you are juicing a different fruit and don't want the flavours mixing.The output is up to a massive 2 litres and I can see out old apple trees produce being converted into apple juice this year rather than the apple crumbles which were easier that squeezing the juice and cleaning up after.Just one more thing don't throw away the pulp in the bin recycle it on your compost heap.Recommended.

OTHER JUICERS=============I've had juicers in the past, but gave up as they were difficult to clean. The effort just wasn't worth it. So I was excited to try this with it claims of being easy to clean.HEALTH BENEFITS===============I wanted a juicer though as it's an easy way to get some of the "5 a day".NICE LOOKING============It has a small footprint so doesn't take up that much space, and aesthetically it's a very nice looking machine. It's sleek, and has a nice finish to it. It's not embarrassing to have in the kitchen.SETUP=====Within a minute or two of opening up, this was ready to go.I was drinking some apple juice almost instantly. I simply had to drop pieces of apple into the tube.And voilà! It separated the juice from the peel!THEN....========Afterwards the clean up came... This is the bit I detest.However, I followed the instructions and bish, bash, bosh it was sparkling clean. It ALMOST cleans itself. It's really easy.WHAT IT SAYS============It says you shouldn't juice: bananas, mangoes, avocados, papaya, figs.WHAT I DID==========Rules are made to be.... ahem.... not followed. So against the instructions I tried juicing bananas and avocados. (I didn't have any of the other items.) And it coped. It was a little thick but it did juice. I'm not recommending it but it did work.I did taste horrible though. Banana and avocado don't go well together.QUIET TOO=========Not at all noisy.RECOMMENDED===========If you're after an easy to clean juicer that's well built and works well, this is one that should be on your shortlist.

I've owned a couple of juicers over the last few years, and whilst not using them even close enough to justify the price tag have found the results impressive compared to shop-bought juice. This model is fairly large, and will take up a fair amount of space in your kitchen (or tucked away in a cupboard).The feeding tube is large enough to drop small apples or halved oranges etc without the need for breaking up into small pieces. The juicing process is very quick, it will only take seconds to juice a few oranges, a couple of minutes to fill the 2 litre supplied jug. The spout leading into the jug is well designed - if used correctly you shouldn't get any splash-back when the machine is switched-onand the jug is in place.I wasn't particularly impressed with the quick-clean function which involves poring water into the machine whilst switched on. It may make it a little easier to clean as a good portion of the pulp is cleaned from the machine's parts, but it doesn't negate the need to disassemble and clean thoroughly. You will get a fair bit of pulp once juiced, but should help make excellent compost!I've tried a fair few fruit/veg combinations, my favourite being orange, apple and fresh ginger. You don't need to peal apples or ginger, but citrus fruit will need to be peeled.Using any juicer can be tiresome when comparing to shop-bought juice, but the results from this juicer outweigh the negatives for me. It's robust, powerful, and should make me drink far more fresh made juice in the future.

I previously had a health spurt a few years ago bought a £100 Bosch juicer co,plate with the juice master book and got juicing .however a few weeks later with a in full of pulp and a half dirty juicer I gave up .The main reason was it was to bulky and even bigger reason a nightmare to clean .Mainly it comes down to I'm half hearted about being healthy and lazy . Make it easy and I might stick to it.This claims to be a minute cleaning so was interested if this was true. Firstly it's a far better shape &a size than the older juicers . It impressed me that I don't need to chop fruit and veg ! Winner . However you are restricted to certain items -still no banana or avocados !- and watch items with pips .The motor is fast enough , especaily for the money . It zips through fruit and you get a nice glass of healthy juice delivered within a minute .So coming to the cleaning - it screws on and off easily so saves time dismantling . It efficiently collects the pulp and you just tip it in the bin or your composite and rinse the mesh . A small scrub with a soft brush and it's clean . Some residue does land in the container beneath but nothing that some detergent doesn't remove. So yes it's easy clean , much quicker than my last one .powerful enough , there are faster and more thorough models but unless your a hardened serious juicer I wouldn't pay the £200 odd for them .Definitely recommend.

I ordered this juicer from abroad as a gift for a loved one back home and as I wanted a speedy delivery selected the next day option for only £7 more. From there on I received regular emails on the progress of my parcel from the depot to various other delivery depots until it was finally delivered. I was even able to see the location of the delivery van on a map as it neared the delivery location. It was finally delivered exactly at the time specified. During transit the box had been slightly crushed on one corner however the delivery driver noted that on his documents so if the product inside turned out damaged there wouldn't be a problem with me returning it.So just on the delivery service alone I was very impressed and it exceeded my expectations - 5 stars for that.I took a long time to decide on which product to purchase, reading online reviews and watching YouTube clips of various products but finally decided this one for price, previous reviews and ease of use.Bearing in mind it has only been used for one day, it works perfectly as described in the product information. Its amazing where all this juice comes from when only a small number of pieces of fruit or vegetable are "juiced". It was easy to clean ready for the next session.So all the research I did looks like it paid off and we are very pleased with it and on the way to becoming a juice fanatic!

If you are into kitchen gadgets you may start to find it hard to open the cupboards due to all the items that adorn your worktops. For years you may have been happy to buy fresh juice from the supermarket, or even eat an apple. But what if your own juicer that makes it fresh from the source? In terms of taste ‘Philips Quick Clean Juicer’ works wonders; not only in producing nice flavoured juices, but it also looks good too. The top has a wide opening so it is easy to fit most types of fruit in without having to chop too much, if at all. All you have to do now is allow the ‘Philips’ to separate the wheat from the chaff – or in this case; the sugary liquid from the fibre.It is quick and easy to use and also quick and easy to clean.It perhaps takes more than a minute to get all the pulp out of the system, but there is none of the intense blade cleaning that some juicers require. The one thing that will put people off is that it is a large piece of kit. If you have something like a Nutribullet you will be used to a blender being quite slick and easy to put away. The ‘Philips Quick Clean Juicer’ is a little more dominant than this as it splits full pieces of fruit so needs the room.With a powerful motor and an ease to clean, the ‘Philips Quick Clean Juicer’ is a great juicer – just remember that you are using it to get juice out and not for a nutrient blender.

Must admit that I was a bit stumped at first. This juicer at first glance is identical to the 1863/01 that I already owned (and have reviewed), which at the moment is almost half the price of this one. Closer inspection shows that there IS a difference. This one is pretty much this year's incarnation of my the 1863/01 with the same sleek styling that looks a million bucks sitting on your counter, the same ease of of use juicing the fruits (no need to peel those apples and pears first!), a 700 watt motor that purrs, and the difference- the feeder tube bit now has drainage holes so you can flush the machine between uses by pouring in water, making it even easier to clean (not that the 1863/01 was very difficult to clean either though.So id you don't mind not having this feature, save yourself a good chunk of change and go for the 1863/01 while they are still available). Doing so means the sieve isn't horrifically clogged up with stubbornly clinging bits when you take it out. Just a quick go over with a brush under the tap or simply pop into the dishwasher as the sieve is dishwasher safe. The interior itself is a doddle to wipe out. Comes with a handy jug and you cna make up to 2L of juice at a go so plenty to go round at breakfast!

A fantastic piece of equipment. My sister and I regularly make green smoothies, but wanted to try a juicer instead of the nutribullet, still allowing us to enjoy all the nutrients. The juicer came the next day with Prime, and after a quick clean we made our juice in under a minute. There's no need to peel the fruit, or veg, that you want to juice! The juice comes out of the nozzle and goes into a handy jug that comes in the box - there's even a small piece of plastic on the lid of the jug prevents splashing of the juice onto your kitchen surfaces! Another great feature is the suction grips at the bottom of the juicer, which means you don't have to hold onto it whilst it's juicing away.It's not too loud, like you get with other juicers/blenders, so it's great if you want to make one before members of your household are awake!The only negative thing i can think to say about this juicer is the washing up that comes afterwards. There are several parts to the juicer, and the toughest part to clean is the grater, which has a sort of sieve around it, which catches all the bits, leaving you with a smooth juice.Overall, if you're looking for a juicer that's good quality and you don't mind washing up, this is the one for you!
