    Awesome juicer!

    published

    I've had a lot of juicers, all from the usual places we buy from (Harvey Norman etc) but to buy from a decent quality supplier like Froothie has been a pleasure and the product far superior to anything I've ever had before! Get one in your life ASAP!

    super tasty juice

    published

    First it was great to be able to watch the videos before I made the decision to purchase the optimum 400.
    I love being able to make healthy nutritious juice and my kids cant get enough.
    My boys put all the fruit in the froothie and I fill their cups. We make icypoles too, so they are getting a great healthy snack...and our chooks get all the leftover pulp.
    Everyones happy!

    Great Juicer

    published

    The Optimum 400 is a great product, it is simple to use and clean up is very easy.
    I like mine so much I purchased one as a gift for my parents as well and they are equally impressed.

    Good purchase and customer service

    published

    I find the optimum juicer to make very yummy tasting juice with nice dry pulp, which tells me all the goodness has been extracted and is in the juice. I had a few problems with the red rubber breaking and still have to try to make a second attempt at nut butter (which I was trying at the time). Customer support was very helpful and the rubber was replaced.
    I also struggle with celery and green leafy vegetables a bit as their fibers get stuck. But I can live with it as I find a lot of slow juicers have the same problem.I had a breville juicer but found the pulp was to wet and didn't feel I got the best juice. So this was my replacement and birthday/Christmas present to myself :)

    Good morning Optimum!

    published

    What a great way to start the day! My Optimum 400 juicer clicks together well and helps me create a kickstarting energy juice every day. Since my husband was diagnosed with cancer we have made extra effort to juice and it has been easy with this appliance. I was concerned with the amount of fibre but love the tip to store it and use as extra ingredients for stews, soups, mince etc. You do need to be careful to do the most fibrous vegies/fruits last, but I manage!

    The other man's grass is always greener.

    Am enjoying using my Optimum 400 but wish I would have held out for the new one with the bigger shute. Oh well there is always something better just after we purchase something. I did have an issue with a bit of a leak after juicing but found the support team okay and was going to return the juicer but some friends with cold press juicers said that a small amount of leaking is normal so I didn't want to take the risk of returning it and it being damaged in transit or even lost so I put up with a small leak. I am a new fan of cold press juicing and am looking forward to making tofu.

    Good but

    published

    We've had the 400 for just over 2 weeks! It does make great tasting juice for sure! But I do find it a bit of a pain to clean, it does get clogged, especially when you put celery in, I cut it small and mix with hard veges, but I still always find a clogged Shute when I take it apart with some unprocessed veges/fruit in it! We are swapping for the newly released optimum 600, I'm lookimg forward to no prep and that 'impossible to clog' statement they make! Must say customer service has been very responsive! Will let you know how the 600 goes!!

    I can't imagine a green lifestyle without it now.

    Optimum 400 Juicer

    published

    Very impressed with everything, excellence customer service, great juicer, have had for 4 months now, it gets pride of place on bench top as it is used most days, the juice has very little pulp, able to do all fruits and vegetables and very easy to clean, before I had a juicer that I ended up not using often as too hard to clean.
    I'm so impressed with the company I have just ordered a blender.
    Very little pulp, easy to clean, look great

    Love it!

    published

    After having fresh juice daily in Fiji on a recent holiday, I decided it was time to invest in a decent one after so many years without. Did some homework and found the Optimum 400 was just the ticket. I've only had it a week, but I really love it. It's very quiet and the juice produces very little, if any, pulp using the fine strainer. The pulp is almost dry when it comes out. Love the fact that it's 'excreted' out into a container, making cleaning much easier. I use the pulp on my veggie patch which I'm sure the plants love.
    The unit stays on my counter as I use it every day. I'm confident of the product as the 10 yr motor warranty speaks volumes.
    Great, pulp free juice

    Very little pulp!

    published

    Health reasons made me research the pros and cons of different juicers and I must say from personal experience a slow juicer is the best all round.I have owned another more expensive brand slow juicer for 3 years and have not been happy with the performance . After using the Optimun 400 daily for over a week, I have noticed it"s quieter, quicker and produces less pulp and froth.It is easy to assemble and wash up and the quality of the juice is great.The machine is robust and the build quality is first class.
    Good value, quiet,less pulp and buid quality.
    The feed shute could be slightly wider for easier washing up.

    The best appliance in your kitchen

    published

    Only wish I had the blender and juicer when I first got married (45 years ago). What a great way to feel healthy and full of energy. Just can't believe how well I feel. I can even see a brightness in my eyes! That sounds corny, but it's true! I am taking them both in the caravan when we travel north! My daughter in law can share them with me, our little grandson will love the juices, he has been on fruit juices since he was 6 mths old. He has never had a soft drink or lollie....and he is the sweetest boy!
    Both appliances (the juicer and blender) do exactly as they suggest, both turning out magnificient 'vitamin pills'
    I didn't own one or both 45 years ago!!

    Loving this new Froothie 400 juicer. I've used many cold pressed juicers and had another brand until this one and love how quick, quite and effortless to clean.

    This is the best purchase I have made in a long time. Making nut milk is a breeze, so much quicker and simpler than the old method I was using. I am using my Optimum 400 nearly every day. It is so versatile, and love that it is so quiet.

    Hello, we have lost our Optimum 400 Juicer User Manual. I have looked everywhere on the internet and cannot find one to down load and print off. Can you please let me know how to get another copy of the instructions. Cheers Wayne.

    Just use this manual, it's for the next model up, but the models are all very similar https://www.froothie.si/Documents/Juicer600_Manual_ONLINE.pdf
    Most important thing for me is to cut up everything in 'fruit salad size' pieces, it all goes through the juicer easily then :)

    It is made in PRC, which means China. I got it on special at around $250, but you might want to check their website for current price and specials.
