Sana 727 Supreme Masticating Juicer review exploring features, performance, and value

Description

Design and Build Quality

The Sana 727 Supreme Cold Press Masticating Juicer instantly stands out with its sleek design and vibrant red finish. Sitting on my kitchen counter, it felt more like a statement piece than just another appliance. Its compact dimensions (15″ D x 8″ W x 14″ H) make it a good fit even for smaller spaces, though its weight (19.41 pounds) means it’s not something you’ll want to move around too often. The combination of glass and stainless steel materials gives it a premium feel, and the locking juice flap was a thoughtful touch that prevented spills. My favorite part? How the dual hopper feeding tube made it easy to juice both large and small items without needing to chop everything into tiny pieces.

Performance and Features

Using this juicer felt like stepping into the future of juicing. The highlight for me was the 4-speed brushless DC motor, which operated at speeds ranging from 45 to 120 RPM. I tested the slower speeds for fibrous produce like celery and leafy greens, and it amazed me how little foam and oxidation there was. For juicy fruits like oranges and watermelons, the higher speeds worked like magic, extracting juice quickly without any mess. The auto-reversing feature came in handy when I accidentally overloaded the hopper—it prevented any frustrating jams.

The three cold press juicing screens are another standout. The fine screen was perfect for getting the most juice out of carrots and apples, while the coarse screen handled softer fruits like mangoes without a hitch. I even tried the homogenizing screen for making almond milk and a quick frozen dessert. Both turned out smooth and flavorful, making this juicer much more versatile than a standard one.

Key Benefits

• High juice yield: The heavy-duty auger squeezes out every drop from your produce, minimizing waste.
• Quiet operation: Even during early mornings, it didn’t wake anyone up—a big win in my book.
• Versatility: From nut butters to sorbets, this juicer does more than just juice.
• User-friendly features: The locking juice flap and dual feeding tube add convenience.

Areas for Improvement

While I loved using this juicer, there are a few things to note:

• Weight: At nearly 20 pounds, it’s not ideal for frequent moving.
• Dishwasher incompatibility: Cleaning the parts requires manual washing, which adds some effort.
• Price point: It’s on the premium end, and while the features justify it, not everyone might see the value.

Comparison to Competing Products

I’ve owned and tested other masticating juicers, and this one definitely has some advantages over its competitors. Compared to models like the Omega NC900HDC, the Sana 727’s 4-speed motor offers more flexibility for different produce types, whereas other juicers often stick to single-speed settings. However, the Omega’s parts are dishwasher-safe, which is a feature I missed when cleaning the Sana. Versus the Kuvings EVO820, the Sana Supreme’s heavy-duty auger produced noticeably higher juice yields, especially with fibrous vegetables. Still, Kuvings has a wider feeding tube, which saves on prep time.

Value for Money

This juicer isn’t the cheapest option out there, but it justifies its price with premium features, enhanced durability, and a 15-year warranty. If you’re someone who juices regularly or wants a machine that doubles as a food processor for nut butters and sorbets, this is worth every penny. For occasional users, however, there are more budget-friendly models that might suffice. Still, the extended warranty and high-quality build make it a worthwhile investment for serious juicing enthusiasts.
