I'm going to be on the road a lot over the next 3-4 months, any highly recommended and airport friendly portable juicers that hold up relatively well?

do juicers fall foul of airport security now? I have never flown and probably never will but I know that if I were ever to break the habit of a lifetime I can't knit on the plane or cross-stitch and now I find out that juicers are maybe verboten.

not so much as a restriction on juicers per se, but moreso finding something easy to pack in a carry-on (light, not a lot of attachments, and small).

that's a mercy anyhow!

What sorts of things are you looking to juice? A small hand-held citrus juicer would fit in luggage.

myself would go manual as less worry of dropping / breaking it , or it being stolen because cheaper than a power juicer , and its lighter

heres the most popular manual juicer shown by john k again

I have just got a new juicer from Omega VERT 350 80RPM or VERT 330HD 70RPM

This juicer is little, and juice everything including wheat grass. It is good with fruits. If i was to bring a juicer to travel, it would be this one. You can put it in your back pack.

Have fun during your travel

p.s Buy a brush to clean the bathroom tile. I find it works great to clean any of my juicer with that.

Thanks all for the replies. I enjoyed John's videos ;)

Omega 800x looks to be the best fit (vert looked great, but appears a bit bigger/heavier).

For something really small - and electric, I'd bring a Magic Bullet with a nutmilk bag....Yep, I've made wheatgrass in 'em, etc. Having a nutmilk bag is the key... And then you can also make smoothies....

HTH,

...Then again, you could go non-electric and use it anywwhere, but just not as fast....
