Philips HR1865

We bought the Philips juicer in a mad post-baby diet fad as an upgrade to our smoothie maker and just wish we had upgraded sooner. We found the juicer in our local Makro for £80 + VAT, which was a fabulous price. I believe they are now retailing at around £130. The juicer comes with a book by the 'Juice Master', Jason Vale. The book has some great recipes and some impressive juice solutions to all manner of body complaints. We followed his juice diet and lasted 2 days before we were tired of taking a horrific selection of vegetable based juices into work! I would recommend the juices book but the full juice detox diet is only for the brave and determined ...  Read the complete review

I brought into the whole juicing phrase because of Jordan - I'm not a huge fan of hers but her ability to shrink immediately after childbirth caught my attention (I admit I'm quite shallow) and so during my 2nd pregnancy I purchased the Philips HR1865 Juicer for £169, in readiness for the big diet once I'd given birth.

The large feeding tube ...  Read the complete review

When I was at college around five years ago, my father was diagnosed as having condition called gilberts disease. This meant that his body was unable to break down cholesterol properly, and as a consequence of this he had a mini stroke. This marked the beginning of his obsession with juicing. No piece of fruit or veg in our house was safe. If it had juice, he wanted to extract it. The Philips HR1865 is his second juicer as he managed to wear out the motor on his first. Thankfully for him though, this wonderful piece of equipment seems to be able to take everything he throws at it, and quite often he will use it two or three times a day.

This is a wonderful Juicer, I bought mine on Amazon for £89.99 and it was delivered without too many issues. The box is fairly large and the machine comes with a book by the Juice Master which is fairly large and a great introduction to the world of Juicing. The machine itself looks fantastic, sleek and silver, its large and takes up a decent amount of space on the kitchen sideboard but it is well worth it. There are a number of items in the juicer which need to be cleaned before use, including blades and choppers, there is a jug that also comes with the machine that you use for the juice to fall into, it includes a small divider which ensures no ...  Read the complete review
