About Vervita XXL Review
I mostly test Hurom juicers, but this time I had the chance to try something different. I borrowed the Vervita XXL juicer from my sister, who has used it for over a year and is generally happy with it.
I tested the juicer with several ingredients to see how it performs compared to other models I know well. This is my honest, personal experience after hands-on testing.

Short Summary
Design and Aesthetics:
Sturdy and practical design with a large carrying handle. Available in three colors – inox/black, white, and inox/red. However, the pulp outlet is a clear design flaw: it’s hard to clean, and the silicone part is tricky to reinsert.
Ease of Use:
The wide feeding chute is great – no need to chop most fruits and veggies. The juicer is easy to start and use, but it’s quite heavy and loud during operation. It’s fast, but not refined.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
Most parts are easy to rinse, but the pulp outlet area makes cleaning frustrating. The silicone piece is difficult to remove and put back.
Juicing Performance:
Very strong motor. Easily handles carrots, celery, and beets. The juice is actually quite clear and not overly pulpy. A pleasant surprise.
Value for Money:
For €310, it comes with two extra strainers (smoothie and ice cream), and the performance is solid. But with only a 5-year warranty (compared to Hurom’s 10–15 years), and considering the cleaning frustration, it’s not the best value long-term.
Unboxing and First Impressions
All parts were there and the machine gave a good first impression. It looks strong and solid, with clean design lines. Nothing felt cheap or fragile. It comes in three colors: inox/black, white, and inox/red.

Testing Methodology
All tests were done using 500 grams of each ingredient. The produce was cut into manageable pieces if needed (4–6 cm), and strained with a fine mesh after juicing. I recorded:
- Juicing time
- Initial yield (unfiltered juice)
- Strained yield (final juice)
- Pulp weight
- Noise level (dB)
- Power usage (W)
- Cleaning time
Test Results
So far I tested:
- Carrot
- Celery
- Beetroot
- Apple test coming soon
Celery test
The juicer is powerful and relatively fast. The wide feeding chute is a big advantage — I didn’t need to cut ingredients into small pieces, which saves prep time.
Juicing Performance
The motor is strong and the machine is fast. It easily handled tough vegetables like carrot and beetroot. The juice it produced was surprisingly clear, not pulpy. Juice yield was good and consistent.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning is generally OK, but the pulp outlet is a weak point. The silicone part is difficult to remove and reinsert. This made cleaning feel annoying every time. The juicer is not dishwasher safe.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Strong motor and good performance with tough vegetables
- Wide feeding chute saves prep time
- Clear juice with minimal pulp
- Comes with extra strainers (smoothie + ice cream)
- Available in three color options
Cons:
- Pulp outlet is frustrating to clean and reassemble
- Loud during operation
- Very heavy and bulky
- Only 5-year warranty (compared to 10–15 years on Hurom)
- Build feels more industrial than refined
Comparison with Other Juicers
When comparing the Vervita XXL with juicers I’ve tested from Hurom, the differences are noticeable.
- Hurom H320N / H330P: Similar in speed and juice yield. But the H320N is much easier to clean, has a quieter motor, and overall feels more premium in design and usability. It also has a longer warranty (15 years).
- Hurom H-AA: This model offers a better all-around experience. It is quieter, easier to clean, and the juice quality is slightly better. Both Vervita XXL and H-AA are priced around €310, but Hurom feels like a more refined product.
- Hurom H400: Easier to clean than any other juicer I’ve used, thanks to the mesh-free design. A more modern feel, but at a higher price point.
In short, Vervita XXL performs decently but falls behind in refinement, noise level, and ease of maintenance.
Value for Money
The Vervita XXL costs €310 and includes extra strainers, which is good. But with only a 5-year warranty (vs. 10 or 15 years for Hurom), it may not be the best long-term investment. Build is solid, but the cleaning frustration holds it back.
Final Thoughts
If you want a powerful juicer that can handle tough ingredients and don’t mind spending extra time on cleaning, the Vervita XXL will work. But if you want a more user-friendly and refined experience, I still recommend Hurom.
