How to choose your juicer ?    The main questions is :    

What do you want to juice ? citrus fruits or all fruits&vegetables ?

1) First family of fruits : the "citrus family"

The "citrus" are orange, lemon, and grapefruit. Because they naturally contain juice, their pressing is particular : you need to use a citrus juicer
There are 3 ways to proceed :

- Manual : Cut the fruit in too halves, maintain by hand for extracting the juice on the turning squeezer.
Dedicated machines are #11, #52, #71, #38

- Semi-automatic : Cut the fruit in two halves, put the fruit on the cone, and then push the lever (no need to maintain by hand)
Dedicated machine is #70 and #10

- Full automatic : Just poor the oranges, and that is done !
Dedicated (big) machine is #32

2) All fruits and vegetables

Apple, carrot, watermelon, apricot, cucumber, pineapple, all exotic fruits.. can be juiced with a  centrifugal juice extractor.
Dedicated machines are #58 / #28 and #50

"citrus" family fruits could be juiced with a centrifugal juice extractor, but :
- They must be peeled before
- The juice obtained will not have enough of that particular pulp we like to have with orange, lemon, or grapefruit.

Be carefull :
- Strong skin fruits must be peeled (watermelon should be peeled, whereas it is not necessary to peel apples)
- Nucleus (stones) must be removed (apricot, peach...)
- All fruits must be washed.

How to choose between #58 and #50 Juice Extractors ?

These 2 machines are the same technology, BUT :
#50 is more "table top" than #58 (#50 has lower dimensions).
Because it has a smaller waste container and smaller basket, #50 must be cleaned more often than #58.
#50 has been especially designed for JUICE BARS, whereas #58 has taken place in all big hotels all over the world.
Power, Output, ratio are slightly the same on the 2 machines. #58 is more expensive, but more comfortable.
