Hurom H400 juicer in test – How good is the model really? by Daniel Klarkowski
Freshly squeezed juices at home are miles ahead of those available in the supermarket in terms of nutrient and vitamin content. But before apples, pineapples and carrots can be transformed into a healthy drink, you first need to choose the right juicer. There are big differences here too. Cheap juicers often work using centrifugal force, where the fruit and vegetables are cut up with small knives and the juice is practically thrown out. This heats up the juice and mixes it with oxygen. Both heat and oxidation have a negative effect on the nutrients and the quality of the juice. So-called slow juicers have therefore become increasingly popular in recent years. These slowly and gently release the juice and thus not only have a higher juice yield, but above all achieve maximum juice quality.
With the H400 model , Hurom has launched a new slow juicer onto the market, the design and technical properties of which are intended to make juicing fruit and vegetables even easier to integrate into everyday life.
Experiences with the Hurom H400 juicer in the test: Structure & use of the slow juicer
The Hurom H400 no longer has a separate sieve. When developing the H400 series, the manufacturer decided to integrate the sieve directly into the auger for squeezing the juice. This design is called the “Easy-Clean Chamber System”.
The structure is as follows. At the top there is a knife for cutting up the fruits and vegetables in the basket. Juicing takes place on the outside of the auger, while the juice is separated from the pulp inside the chambers. The juice then goes into the liquid container and the remains are in the pulp chamber on the back of the device. This is also where the switch for turning the slow juicer on and off and the connection for the separate power cable are located. All baskets and collecting containers, as well as the auger, can be removed for cleaning and can be easily cleaned by rinsing or in the dishwasher. For me, this extremely easy cleaning was one of the absolute plus points of my first Hurom.
The Hurom H400 slow juicer is one of the quieter devices. In apartment buildings with thin walls and noise-sensitive neighbors, there is no reason to forego preparing fresh juice early in the morning. The motor does its work in a pleasantly quiet tone, regardless of the hardness of the fruit and vegetables. Those who have only had experience with conventional centrifugal juicers will notice a difference like night and day. The Hurom H400 can almost be described as whisper quiet.
Conclusion of the Hurom H400 juicer test
The Hurom H400 slow juicer is a sensible investment if you want to enjoy freshly squeezed juices at home with as little effort and time as possible and achieve the highest nutrient density and juice quality. The combination of a screw press and integrated sieve is effective for berries as well as fruit and vegetables that have a harder consistency. One advantage that goes hand in hand with the new, even more straightforward design is that it is even easier to clean. On the other hand, the H400 offers a little less flexibility in terms of juice consistency.

Freshly squeezed juices as true immune system boosters, by Adaeze
Especially in winter, we crave a little boost of energy – be it after a long day at work or when the weather throws a spanner in the works. In moments like this, I like to resort to a simple but effective solution: freshly squeezed juices. These delicious immune, beauty and energy elixirs are not only a treat for the palate, but also true health boosters for our immune system.
Why are freshly squeezed juices so healthy?
The answer lies in the abundance of nutrients, vitamins and enzymes found in fresh fruits and vegetables. Compared to packaged juices from the supermarket, freshly squeezed juices are real nutrient bombs. The reason for this is obvious: the fruits and vegetables are processed directly before consumption, which means that the valuable ingredients are preserved.
In particular, the valuable nutrients they contain, such as secondary plant substances, vitamins and minerals, are abundant in freshly squeezed juices. Vitamin C, for example, is an important immune system booster that not only promotes the immune system, but also the production of collagen, which is important for healthy skin and joints. In addition, fresh juices also provide vitamins A and E, which support cell renewal and thus contribute to a strong immune system.
Simple strengthening of the immune system in everyday life
The good news is that incorporating freshly squeezed juice into your daily routine is easier than you think. A ginger shot in the morning or a green juice in the afternoon can make a valuable contribution to strengthening the immune system. And the natural sweetness of the juices makes them a healthy alternative to all industrially produced drinks, which are often loaded with sugar and preservatives.
My tip: Experiment with different fruit and vegetable combinations to provide your palate and your body with a variety of nutrients. Green juices with spinach, cucumber and apple, for example, are not only healthy but also wonderfully refreshing. I recommend keeping the vegetable content in your freshly squeezed juices as high as possible. A vegetable content of at least 50-60% is ideal. The high vegetable content ensures that your juices do not contain too much fructose, which in turn has a negative effect on your blood sugar level.
Homemade with the Hurom slow juicer
The best way to enjoy freshly squeezed juices is to make them yourself. This is where the slow juicer comes into play. I am constantly asked which models I use and can recommend. I have been working with my partner Hurom for many years. Hurom developed the world’s first slow juicer over 50 years ago and has stood for innovative cold-pressed juicer technology ever since. With Hurom’s patented Slow Squeeze technology, you can enjoy fresh juices with full flavor and lots of nutrients every day.
Why a slow juicer?
Compared to conventional juicers, a slow juicer preserves more nutrients because it presses the fruits and vegetables slowly and gently. This process minimizes heat generation, which would otherwise cause sensitive nutrients to be lost. If you want to buy a juicer, make sure you choose a slow juicer when purchasing. All Hurom juicers are slow juice. This means that an advanced pressing technology, a combination of squeezing, filtering and mixing technologies, is used to produce high-quality and particularly healthy juices. The slow juicers are designed to preserve the aroma and taste of fresh fruits and vegetables by minimizing oxidation and heat stress during juicing. This means that more vitamins remain in your juice, which in turn benefits your health. Hurom offers different models. I’m a big fan of the Hurom H330P . With this model, all ingredients can be poured in at once and the juice can be conveniently juiced without further pressing.
Purchasing a slow juicer is not only an investment in your own health, but also in the enjoyment of fresh juices without additives. Once tried, the morning ritual of juicing becomes a revitalizing start to the day that you definitely won’t want to miss.
Overall, freshly squeezed juices are not only a delicious addition, but an easy way to boost the immune system. The path to a healthier lifestyle can be as simple as drinking a glass of freshly squeezed juice a day. Try it out and feel the invigorating effect yourself!
