CHOICE Magazine - October 2007
Test: Juicers:
"The claims are true: non-centrifugal models do produce juice that lasts longer and contains more nutrients." CHOICE Consumer Guide
Test results for 12 centrifugal and non - centrifugal juicers from $100 to $749:
CHOICE scored the juicers for:
Performance
Ease of use
CHOICE Magazine also tested the manufacturers' claims that juice made by cold-press-style machines is more nutritious and that it’ll stay fresh and tasty for up to 48 hours.
Key findings:
All the juicers performed reasonably well, with even the worst getting a good score.
Our tests showed that non-centrifugal juicersdo extract more nutrients - in some cases double or even three times as much! (e.g. double the calcium etc.)
Juice from the non-centrifugal juicers still looked and smelt palatable after 48 hours.
All the centrifugal juicers have large, bulky parts that are hard to fit into a domestic sink for cleaning.

"Cold Press Juicers" versus "High Speed Centrifugal Juicers"
High
Speed Centrifugal Juicers ~ 1,000 rpm to 30,000 rpm:
Most juicers available through retail outlets (e.g. Panasonic, Breville, Black & Decker, Waring Health, Acme, Omega 4000, Jack LaLanne etc) are 'high speed centrifugal
juicers', with speeds ranging between 1,000 rpm through to 30,000
rpm. Their main purpose is to produce juice as fast as possible, by cutting / shredding
your produce at extremely high speeds. The result is generally an oxygenated
juice that is heated at a molecular level, subsequently shortening the
life of the juice to varying degrees. Most high speed juicers require
regular pulp removal and cleaning, which can be annoying.
High
speed centrifugal juicers are not true juice extractors, as the resultant
juice also contains finely cut / shredded produce 'blended' into it, often giving
the illusion of a higher juice extraction rate. Thus many 'high speed centrifugal
juicers' are in reality a cross between a 'juicer / blender.' Although they cannot extract
a 'living juice', they certainly can produce a "fast food!" High speed centrifugal juicers tend to
suit busy people who are happy with a basic quality blended juice.
Cold
Press Masticating Juicers ~ Up to 200 rpm:
We chew our food at about 30 to 60 chews per minute via a cold press masticating
process, thus insuring maximum nutrient availability. If our mouths were
to imitate high speed centrifugal juicers, we would be chewing at an incredible
1,000 to 30,000 bites per minute... That is rather unnatural.
Some discerning customers insist on using only 'Cold Press Juicers'
with speeds ranging from 200 rpm and less. Cold press juicers are purpose built machines
that extract a high quality 'living juice' for maximum well-being.
Cold
press juicers are genuine juice extractors that literally extract juice
from your produce via a slow speed 'cold press' masticating process.
Because the nutrients are preserved, the juice tastes stronger (much
better) and has a much longer shelf-life (refrigerator). These
juicers are especially appealing to
health enthusiasts, sports people, convalescing and the elderly.

Benefits of Juicing
It
is recommended that you drink at least 250 mls of fresh living juice each
day:
Although
eating fruits and vegetables in their natural state does provide a substantial
amount of vitamins and minerals, much of their goodness is locked in the
fibre which is expelled from your body. However,
you can obtain additional benefits from them when they are juiced, especially
with a quality: low r.p.m. - cold press type - non-centrifugal
juicer.
When
you juice fruits, vegetables and etc., their goodness is released from
the fibre and you are able to drink their highly concentrated nutrients,
which are then able to enter your bloodstream very quickly and efficiently.
For
Maximum Benefit:
It
is recommended that you swirl the juice around in your mouth a little,
thereby mixing your living juice with your salvia, which aids in a more
complete digestion. This is especially applicable to carrots, as in their
normal state carrots require considerable chewing. Drinking fresh juice before a meal often reduces hunger at meal time.
The 'Matstone' label is mostly used in United Kingdom and Europe. The 'Samson' label is mostly used in the USA, Australia and Asia. The Matstone Juicer and Samson Juicer are both the same juicer, they just have different labels for different locations in which they are marketed.

January 2006 - LexSun Juicer / comparison with original model
All of these juicers are made by the same manufacturer in Korea, The Oscar Electronic Company Ltd
The Matstone / Samson manufacturer has created a new model (LexSun Juicer) with further improvements to the juicer, and this juicer has been imported into Australia under the brand name LexSun Juicer.
As the LexSun Juicer was warmly accepted and welcomed by Australian customers, the Samson Juicer was discontinued from our range in August 2006. From early 2007, the LexSun Juicer will be exported into many more countries throughout the world. The name LexSun is being raved by every owner and is a trail blazer already.
It out performs the previous Matstone / Samson model in the following areas:
The LexSun Juicer produces much more juice as shown below.
Even when juicing one or two kilos of pineapple it does not cause pulp congestion to block or jam the juicing screen.
When juicing one or two kilos of watermelon the juice does not back flow and drip down the locking collar.
Two juicing tests were recently performed by independent sources, with the following amazing results:
First test - using one kilo of carrots (net weights of juice only shown):
The Matstone or Samson 6-in-1 juicer extracted 465gm of carrot juice.
The latest model LexSun 6 in 1 Juicer extracted 540gm of carrot juice.
Second test - several days later, using one kilo of carrots from another source:
The Matstone or Samson 6-in-1 juicer extracted 457gm of carrot juice.
The latest model LexSun 6 in 1 Juicer extracted 532gm of carrot juice.
Carrots from various sources can produce different amounts of juice; however, please note that the amount of extra juice produced by the new LexSun Juicer is consistent and impressive, to say the least!
The latest LexSun Juicer can do everything that the Matstone & Samson 6-in-1 Juicers could do such as: juicing, sorbet, pasta, mincing nut butter, mincing fish & meat etc.
You can now also purchase optional accessories such as the Ice Shaver / Vegetable Slicer and Oil Extractor.
Parts comparison between original models & latest LexSun Juicers
Earlier Model - year 2002 (Samson GB-9001 / Matstone DO-9001 parts)
Later Models - year 2006 & 2008
(LexSun Standard & LexSun Deluxe parts - DO-9001)
The Juicing (& Mincing) Screen on the latest models can be recognised by the rounded lip, see picture above right.
The triple stage Auger can come in several colours; however, the LexSun Auger will not fit in the older Samson / Matstone model and vice-versa.
Compact Juicer
The Compact Juicer is an inexpensive Chinese copy of one of the Oscar Electronic Company Ltd juicers, who manufacture the authentic Samson / LexSun juicers above.
An engineer recently (September 2007) observed the following:"The Compact Juicer is noisy, groans under load and has a wobbly motor. The auger is made of PVC and not Melamine Poly Carbonate material; thus it is subject to erode quickly.
Although the juicing screens are a copy of the Samson /LexSun juicers,they are a poorer quality and extract 15% less juice."
Please note the sturdy / high quality motor of the latest LexSun Juicer in the picture at right.
It is a true saying: "You usually get what you pay for."
Juicing Tips
Never
put the pulp back into the juicer, it will damage the screen and makes
void the warranty!
Cold
press juicers are excellent for juicing vegetables or a combination
of vegetable and fruit.
2006, August. Mrs Alison H, Thornbury, Victoria, Australia. "Where to start: I bought my first Samson Juicer(latest model now called LexSun
Juicer) a year ago after overworking a commercially available popular brand of juicer and researching other possibilities to replace it. I discovered your website and was amazed at the differences between the quality of juice purported between the centrifugal and masticating juicers. I thought it was a lot of money to pay for a juicer but found once I had it I just can't leave it alone!!
My sister came over from England and loved it so I had to buy one for her as a special birthday present, and you organised for it to be delivered in a true celebratory fashion. I regularly make juices for my family. and when I go away they all tell me that they missed the juice, not me!! It takes pride of place on my limited bench space and has replaced my Kenwood mixer as most used and useful kitchen 'gadget'. I often find myself 'selling' it effusively to other people who might be considering a juicer. Sounds crazy I know but by your testimonials I know I am not alone in wanting to extol its virtues!!"
2006, July. Mrs L. Westcott, Sandy Bay, Hobart, Tasmaia, Australia. "The new Lexsun sounds great - my 82 year old mother will benifit greatly [just purchased aLexSun
Juicerfor her Mother]. We are more than happy with our Samson and continue to tell everyone how good it is."
2006, May. Douglas P, Sylvania, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. "hi Juicers Australia recipient, my order [Samson
Juicer parts] arrived safely this morning and I can now resume vegetable juicing. Thank you for the prompt delivery. It is a pity that more companies are not as efficient. Good health. Doug P."

April. Mitford - Burgess, Manly, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. "this is our second juicer [Samson
Juicer] from you. its the best thing i have ever brought it my whole life. this is a retirement gift for my parents. i am wondering if you could deliver asap as they are about to go away and i want them to have it before they leave. could you please call me and tell me when the juicer will be delivered. thanks."
2006,
April. Mrs Bernadette B, Sanctuary Cove, Queensland, Australia. "When moving house recently I came across a sample of Ezy Kleen. My elderly mother had asked me to try and get a tea stain out of a shirt, I had tred the lot, to no avail, then I fond the ezykleen, whamo, no more stains in this house! even old stains, gone. Problem I have now is can\'t find it anywhere and I have only a teaspoon left. HELP PLEASE."
