Sana 818 Self-Feeding Cold Press Juicer

The Sana 818 is a vertical cold press juicer, also often called a slow juicer or masticating juicer. It uses a single-auger pressing system and runs at a gentle 50 RPM, so it presses fruit and vegetables slowly instead of shredding them at high speed.

Yes. The Sana 818 has a 1600 ml automatic hopper, so you can load prepared produce into the top of the machine instead of feeding every piece by hand. The dual-blade system helps cut and guide ingredients into the juicing chamber as the machine runs.

The Sana 818 is made for Sana by Hurom, a world leader in slow juicing. Hurom is known for its vertical cold press juicers, and that experience is part of what makes the Sana 818 such a strong entry point into the Sana range.

Yes — and with slow juicers, wattage is not the whole story. The Sana 818 uses a 150W AC motor system designed for steady low-speed extraction. In a cold press juicer, the motor, gearbox, auger and juicing screen work together to press produce at low speed, so a bigger wattage number does not automatically mean a better juicer.

The Sana 818 can juice celery, ginger, kale and leafy greens, but this is where the usual vertical-versus-horizontal juicer advice applies. Vertical self-feeding juicers are excellent for convenient everyday mixed juices, while horizontal slow juicers are usually the better choice for long, stringy, fibrous ingredients.

If you mainly want to juice celery, wheatgrass, leafy greens, ginger or turmeric, we would usually recommend a horizontal Sana juicer such as the Sana 707, 727 or 929. If you want an automatic juicer for mixed fruit and vegetable juices, with some celery or greens included, the Sana 818 is a very practical choice. Cut fibrous ingredients into shorter pieces before juicing.

The Sana 818 is well suited to everyday mixed juices using ingredients such as apple, carrot, cucumber, celery, beetroot, ginger, citrus, pineapple, grapes and softer fruits. As a vertical self-feeding juicer, it handles fruit-based juices especially well, which is one of the advantages of this style of machine.

It is a good choice for fresh juices that combine fruit and vegetables, especially if convenience is important to you. For a more balanced juice, many customers use sweeter fruits alongside vegetables such as cucumber, carrot, beetroot, celery or leafy greens.

The Sana 818 is a compact self-feeding juicer with Hurom manufacturing behind it and Sana’s clean design approach. It is not trying to be the largest or highest-wattage automatic juicer. Its strength is that it gives you automatic juicing convenience, proper slow-juicer engineering and a more accessible way to own a Sana.

Like most vertical slow juicers, the Sana 818 is easiest to clean straight after use. Rinse the juicing parts before pulp dries on the screen or auger, and the routine is much quicker. This makes a big difference if you plan to juice regularly.

The Sana 818 is a good fit for people who want a self-feeding cold press juicer for everyday home use, especially singles, couples and smaller households. It also makes sense if you want Sana quality, but do not want to move up to one of the larger premium Sana models.

Choose the Sana 818 if you want automatic self-feeding convenience in a more accessible Sana model. It is ideal for everyday mixed juices and for customers who want a modern juicer that does not need to be fed piece by piece.

If you want the strongest all-round juicing performance — especially for health-focused juices with celery, leafy greens, wheatgrass, ginger, turmeric and other highly fibrous ingredients — we would usually point you towards a horizontal Sana juicer such as the Sana 707, 727 or 929. If you want a larger or more premium automatic self-feeding juicer, the Sana 878 may be worth considering. The best choice depends on what you plan to juice most often.
