Motor and Body Unit
The Hurom H101/H100 Easy Clean Masticating Slow Juicer comes with a very elegant plastic and chrome covering housing design. The design features a fairly small footprint that will not occupy much of the counter space.
The machine has a 120 V, 60 Hz, 150 W powerful motor that rotates the auger with a slow 43 rpm speed to ensure to deliver the highest quality cold press and long shelf-life juice.
It is designed to run for up to 30 min of continuous operation before stopping for rest.
Drum, Hopper and Feeding Chute
The juicer features the Tritan copolyester BPA–free juicing chamber with a 16.9 oz./500 ml/ 1.3L capacity, an absolutely innovative design hopper, and a feeding chute made from ABS BPA-free polymer.
It has the standard long chute inlet and hopper with two different ingredients inlets. It has an upper hopper chute (to insert long and narrow veggies like celery and carrots) and a side hopper chute (to insert tomatoes, grapes, or diced produce).
The smaller 2 x 1.5 inch (crescent) opening is designed to accommodate such ingredients as carrots and celery which allow them to drop to auger easily. And the second inlet (bigger size than the top inlet) is on the side of the hopper which is modeled in the shape of a funnel, so the larger pre-cut produce such as chunks of veggies, fruits, and leafy greens slide easily into the chute, making it self-feeding.
Nevertheless, when processing beets and carrots it is advised to cut them into smaller pieces like half or quarters for roots, it also requires cutting strongly veggies like celery into 1–2 inches bits otherwise it may jam.
Another model innovation is the unique pulp outlet lever which fully opens the pulp area and allows easy adjustment and regulation of juice thickness. No other juicer on the market has a similar pulp outlet design.
The juicing outlet has a convenient cap that allows you to release juice when you want and also helps in the washing process.
Gears/Auger
The Juicer comes with dual wings design auger which allows cutting produce before it goes into the chewing process between the augers.
The auger is made from ULTEM plastic which is an extra strong and chemical resistant polymer.
Juicing Screen
It provides a very new take on juicing design by replacing the traditional style screen with the new and revolutionary strainer system. It is a screenless design. The two strainers fit together and form a tight combination of thin slits that are designed to allow the juice to flow through them while separating the pulp pieces. They can be pulled apart after juicing for easier access to all parts of the screen for cleaning.
It also does not require the spinning brush with this design, so it can juice effectively without it. The strainer parts are very easy to clean and maintain.
Containers
It comes with BPA-free Tritan copolyester glass-shaped juice and pulp collection containers. The containers could be easily nested for more convenient storage in the cupboard.

This is non-typical for all other vertical juicers assembling procedures.
