control.

conveniently place the juicer and protect its outer insulation from damage.

like apple, tomato, carrot, etc to be pushed into it, eliminating laborious chopping.
4) Easy to assemble and dismantle: The juicer should be easy to assemble and
dismantle, different parts of it like sieve, feeder tube cover, pusher jar and pulp collector
jar.
5) Anti skid base: Check for vacuum base or stable base to prevent the juicer from
toppling over when in use.
6) Anti drip spout: An anti drip spout will ensure that any leftover juice in the juice
container does not drip on the countertop. This can save cleaning time.
7) Warranty: Check exactly which parts are covered under the warranty. Some brands
may not cover certain parts of the juicer under the warranty.
