Kuvings NJE Series Horizontal Masticating Slow Juicer Does It All & Then Some

Juice. Pasta. Mochi. Sherbet. The Kuvings NJE Series Horizontal Masticating Slow Juicer does everything except watch your kids. In addition to making delicious juice, this versatile device does double duty as a food processor. This opens up all sorts of culinary possibilities.

Also, compared to many other Kuvings juicers, the price of Kuvings NJE Series Horizontal Masticating Slow Juicer is quite low.  

Horizontal slow juicers are the more traditional form of juicers, as vertical juicers are a more recent (and typically more expensive) innovation. Masticating juicers extract juice from produce by pushing ingredients at high pressure against a screen or sieve. They typically produce a higher quality of juice and get greater yields from produce than centrifugal juicers.

The Kuvings NJE Series Horizontal Masticating Slow Juicer is more than competent at its core function and adds value with its other capabilities. If you’re looking for a good multi-purpose juicer from a company known for good products, this may be the one for you.

The Kuvings NJE Series of juicers are versatile and make juice from a wide variety of food. Using the screen and juicing nozzle, Kuvings NJE juicers can juice, wheatgrass, leafy greens, softer produce such as grapes and citrus, apples, pears, and more. The device does struggle with harder vegetables such as carrots and beets, however.

The blank screen and mincing nozzles give the Kuvings NJE series the ability make frozen treats, nut butter, minced vegetables, make pesto and even make ground meat. Using the blank screen and removing all nozzles from the device will allow you to crush ice and grind coffee beans. You can also even use the device to make nut butter or baby food. The multi-function capability of this device more than justifies the amount of kitchen space it takes up.

Features

Juice Quality

The quality of the juice produced from the device is excellent, as oxidation is minimized. Juice extracted by this device can be stored in a tightly sealed container for up to 72 hours.

Everything is Included

The Kuvings NJE horizontal juicers are complete when you buy them. It comes complete with a juicer base, juicing set, blank screen, hopper, pusher, juice cup, pulp cup, seven multipurpose nozzles, a cleaning brush, and a manual. You can buy some very nice Kuvings-branded insulated bottles, though. They come in handy for taking your juice to the gym, on a trail walk, or wherever else you may go.

I found that the nozzles and screens included are part of the magic that makes this device a true superstar. Included nozzles are:

  • Juicing nozzle
  • Mincing nozzle
  • Cake nozzle
  • Large round pasta nozzle
  • Small flat pasta nozzle
  • Large round pasta nozzle
  • Small flat pasta nozzle

Another feature I liked is that it’s very quiet. When in operation, the device only makes about 60 db of noise, about as loud as a normal conversation between two people. Some juicers, especially fast juicers, get much louder.

Everything Else

Keep in mind that this masticating juicer is not dishwasher safe, and you will need to wash it by hand. The handy cleaning brush that comes with the juicer is very helpful in this task.

Please note that Kuvings’ method of naming and numbering its products can be a little confusing. Just remember that all Kuvings juicers whose names start with the same two or three letter code are the same product, the only difference is the product color. This line of juicer comes in four colors.

For a comparison, here’s how the Kuvings NJE series juicer stacks up against the Omega J8006HDS Nutrition Center, a similar product.

Is it easy to use?

This slow juicer was designed to be simple to operate. The assembly process is easy, taking less than a minute to put everything together. The only thing that is a little different is you need to do is make sure the strainer’s “UP” position is pointing up.

Most of your bulky items, like apples, will need to be sliced into smaller pieces that can fit down the 1.5-inch feed chute. Prep all of your items prior to juicing to spend as little time needed to juice your items.

Once you begin juicing, make sure that you do not put too much down the feed chute. If it becomes clogged, press the reverse button a few times to unclog the juicer.

Push the forward button after you unclog it. As the produce is crushed and squeezed, the juice is then extracted through the screen. The juice comes out the bottom and the pulp is ejected out the front.

If the machine is ever overloaded, the built-in circuit breaker will trip. The reset switch will pop up, which you can find on the bottom of the machine.

Is it easy to clean?

While some parts are top rack dishwasher safe, it is highly recommended that you wash the parts by hand for optimal results. In fact, I always recommend hand-washing juicers. They. Just last longer that way!

The best time to clean the parts to your juicer is immediately after juicing. To do so, you must disassemble but I found it takes very little time.

Make sure to wash the parts with a mild detergent in warm water. Use the included cleaning brush to remove the remaining pulp from the strainer. Don’t forget to remove the rubber ring from the drum cap while washing! Ensure that you place the protruding portion facing the front of the drum cap when you finish cleaning it. As soon as you finish rinsing the juicer, dry all of the juicer parts.

Is Kuvings NJE worth it?

The Kuvings NJE Series gets a strong recommendation from us. Its versatility and relatively inexpensive price check a lot of boxes. Buyers will get a great deal of value from this highly useful kitchen appliance.
