R3 Verdict

Juice-contact surfaces use GE Ultem (polyetherimide) — the highest tier of food-safe plastic, engineered to be free of BPA and other endocrine disruptors. No chemical leaching concerns, even with daily acidic juice contact.

Criteria

Juice-Contact Material

10/10

The juice-contact surfaces use GE Ultem (polyetherimide) — a medical-grade, FDA-approved material that's chemically inert. This is the gold standard for masticating juicer augers.

BPA-Free

10/10

Confirmed BPA-free — important for a juicer since acidic juice significantly accelerates chemical leaching from plastic surfaces.

R3 Verdict

This cold press masticating design maximizes nutrient retention and juice yield at low RPM. The 200W motor is calibrated for this mechanism — not a limitation, but a design choice for maximum juice quality.

Criteria

Juicer Type

10/10

Cold press masticating design operates at very low RPM — minimal heat, minimal oxidation, maximum nutrient retention. Juice stays fresh up to 72 hours, and you get significantly more yield per pound of produce.

R3 Verdict

Dishwasher-safe parts keep daily cleanup simple and the 1.5-inch feed chute requires pre-cutting produce.

10/10

Juice-contact parts are dishwasher safe, which makes a real difference for daily use — cleaning is the number one reason people stop using their juicer.
