Key Feature Comparison
Juicing Screen and Cleaning
The biggest difference between the Hurom H80ST and Hurom H400 is the screen design.
The Hurom H400 uses an easy-clean auger-based mechanism rather than a traditional screen. Its two-part auger separates juice from pulp while also helping create a fine juice texture. Because there is no fine mesh screen to scrub, the H400 is the easier model to clean by hand.
The Hurom H80ST is a screen-based juicer, which means it uses separate strainers to control juice texture. This can require slightly more cleaning than the H400, but it also gives the H80ST an advantage in yield and versatility. For shoppers comparing Hurom juicers, this is one of the most important trade-offs: the H400 is easier to clean, while the H80ST offers the benefits of a more traditional screen-based extraction system.
Hopper Size and Self-Feeding Convenience
Both models are self-feeding slow juicers, which makes them much easier to use than older manual-feed designs. Instead of pushing every ingredient through a narrow chute one piece at a time, you can load produce into the hopper and let the machine do more of the preparation.
The H400 has a large-capacity hopper and chamber, designed to reduce prep time and support a smooth juicing process. Its internal cutting blade helps prepare fruit and vegetables before they reach the auger.
The H80ST also has an extra-large self-feeding hopper, making it particularly useful for family-sized batches or larger juicing sessions. The add-in slot gives it extra flexibility, allowing you to add ingredients mid-process without fully interrupting the juicing routine.
Juicing Mechanism and Extraction Performance
The Hurom H400 uses an auger-based juicing mechanism with an optimised 150-watt motor. The smaller slits in the auger are designed to reduce pulp in the finished juice, helping produce a smooth texture while keeping the cleaning process simple.
The Hurom H80ST uses Hurom’s Spiral Blade Technology alongside Slow-Squeeze extraction. This is designed to give smooth, consistent juicing with less clogging, especially when processing fibrous ingredients. The H80ST also includes mechanism optimisations such as an improved pulp outlet design, helping pulp move through the machine more efficiently during juicing.
For users who regularly juice celery, kale, leafy greens or dense vegetables, the H80ST is likely to be the stronger choice. Its screen-based system and optimised extraction design can offer slightly better yield, particularly with ingredients that are more demanding to process.
Juice Texture and Pulp Control
The H400 is designed to create fine, smooth juice with less pulp, using its two-part auger and refined slit design. It is a good choice if you prefer a straightforward juice texture without needing to change strainers.
The H80ST gives more control because it includes Fine and Coarse strainers. This allows you to choose between a clearer juice or a richer drink with more body. For people who like to vary recipes or adjust pulp levels depending on the ingredient, the H80ST offers more flexibility.
Recipe Versatility
Both juicers can do more than make standard fruit and vegetable juice.
The Hurom H400 can be used for juice, sorbets and nut milks, making it a practical choice for everyday kitchen use.
The Hurom H80ST includes Fine, Coarse and Ice Cream strainers, so it can produce clear juices, pulpier blends and frozen fruit sorbets. If you want more control over texture and recipe style, the H80ST has the broader strainer-based setup.
