Fresh Juice with Less Preparation
The Philips Viva Collection Juicer HR1863/22 is a centrifugal juicer designed for households that want to prepare fresh fruit and vegetable juice quickly. Its 700W motor, 75mm XL feeding tube and large pulp container make it practical for morning juice, family breakfasts, entertaining and regular meal preparation.
The wide feeding tube reduces the amount of cutting required before juicing. Many apples, carrots, cucumbers and similar ingredients can be inserted in larger pieces, provided they fit safely and have been prepared according to the user manual. Hard stones, thick inedible skins and unsuitable parts must still be removed before juicing.
This model is designed for juice extraction rather than blending. It separates liquid from most of the pulp, creating a lighter drink than a smoothie. Customers who want to retain the whole fruit fibre in the drink may prefer a blender, while those who want clear, freshly extracted juice will find the HR1863/22 more suitable.
700W Centrifugal Juicing Power
The official Philips specification for the HR1863/22 is 700W. The motor spins the stainless-steel sieve at high speed, pressing juice through the mesh while directing pulp into the separate container.
This power level is suitable for common household ingredients such as apples, carrots, pears, cucumber, pineapple and peeled citrus fruit. The practical yield depends on the freshness, water content and ripeness of the produce. Softer or overripe ingredients may create more pulp and foam, while firm, fresh produce generally passes through more cleanly.
Feed ingredients steadily and use only the supplied pusher. Forcing large quantities into the chute at once can overload the system and reduce extraction efficiency. Never place fingers, cutlery or other objects into the feeding tube while the appliance is connected to electricity.
75mm XL Feeding Tube
The 75mm feeding tube is one of the strongest convenience features of this model. It can accommodate many fruits and vegetables with less chopping than a narrow-chute juicer. This reduces preparation time, particularly when making several glasses for a family.
“Less chopping” does not mean every ingredient can be inserted whole. Produce must fit comfortably without being forced, and hard stones, stalks, thick peel or damaged sections should be removed where appropriate. Very large items should still be cut into manageable pieces.
The wider chute is especially helpful for apples, medium carrots, cucumber sections and similar produce. It makes the machine practical for busy mornings when lengthy preparation would discourage regular juicing.
Up to Two Litres in One Go
Philips states that the juicer can prepare up to approximately 2 litres of juice in one session before the pulp container requires emptying. The exact volume will depend on the ingredients and how much pulp they generate.
The included juice jug holds approximately 800ml, so larger quantities may need to be poured into another container between batches. The 1.2L pulp container collects the separated fibre and is shaped to fit neatly into the body of the juicer.
For the freshest flavour, juice is best consumed soon after extraction. If it must be stored briefly, place it in a clean covered container in the refrigerator and follow safe food-handling practices. Fresh juice is not pasteurised and should not be left at room temperature for long periods.
QuickClean Technology
Juicer cleaning can be the main reason people avoid using the appliance regularly. Philips QuickClean technology is designed to make the process faster by using smooth surfaces and a polished sieve that is easier to rinse than a conventional rough mesh.
The pulp is directed into one container rather than collecting across several difficult corners. This allows the main removable components to be separated and cleaned more efficiently after use.
Cleaning should begin soon after juicing, before fruit and vegetable fibres dry onto the sieve. Dried pulp is more difficult to remove and can block the fine openings that allow juice to pass through.
Pre-Clean Function
The pre-clean function uses water to help rinse fibres away from the lid and sieve. After finishing a batch, water can be introduced according to the Philips instructions while the appliance briefly operates. This loosens residue before the parts are removed for full washing.
Pre-cleaning does not replace proper washing. The lid, sieve, pulp container, jug and other removable parts should still be cleaned thoroughly. The motor base must never be immersed in water and should be wiped with a damp cloth after it has been unplugged.
One-Speed Simplicity
The HR1863/22 uses a single operating speed. There is no digital display or multiple speed selection to manage. Once the unit is assembled correctly, the control is direct and easy to understand.
This simplicity suits customers who want reliable juice extraction without adjusting settings for every ingredient. The trade-off is that it does not provide the fine control of a multi-speed premium juicer or the slow extraction process of a cold-press machine.
Safety and Stable Operation
The safety clamps help keep the juicer correctly assembled during operation. The machine should only be used when the lid, pulp container, sieve and locking components are securely positioned.
Place the juicer on a level, dry worktop with enough space around it. Keep the power cord away from the feeding tube and wet surfaces. If the appliance vibrates unusually, switch it off, unplug it and check that the sieve is clean, undamaged and fitted correctly.
Do not use the appliance if the sieve is cracked or damaged. A high-speed rotating component must always be in good condition before use.
What You Can Juice
The juicer is suitable for many common fruits and vegetables, including apples, carrots, cucumber, pears, pineapple, beetroot and peeled citrus fruit. Combining sweeter fruit with vegetables can create balanced everyday drinks.
Bananas, avocado and other very soft ingredients do not contain enough free juice for efficient centrifugal extraction. These are better blended into smoothies. Leafy greens may produce a limited yield in a centrifugal juicer compared with a specialised slow juicer.
Remove citrus peel when it is thick or bitter, and always remove stones from fruits such as mangoes, peaches and plums. Wash all produce thoroughly before preparation.
Juicer Versus Blender
A centrifugal juicer separates most of the insoluble fibre from the liquid. This produces a lighter drink that is easy to pour and consume. A blender processes the whole ingredient, retaining more fibre and creating a thicker smoothie.
Customers who want smoothies, soups and sauces may pair this juicer with the Philips 3000 Series Glass Blender HR2291/20. Customers seeking stronger extraction control and FibreBoost technology can compare the Philips Avance Collection Juicer HR1922/21.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Switch off and unplug the appliance before disassembly. Remove the lid, sieve, pulp container and jug carefully. The sieve has fine cutting surfaces and should be handled by its edges.
Rinse removable components promptly with warm water and mild detergent. Use a suitable brush on the sieve where necessary, taking care not to damage the mesh. Dishwasher-safe parts can be placed in the dishwasher according to the manual.
Wipe the motor body only after disconnecting the appliance. Dry all parts before reassembly or storage. Persistent staining from carrots or beetroot may occur on plastic parts and does not necessarily affect performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the correct power rating?
The official Philips specification for HR1863/22 is 700W.
Can whole apples fit into the feeding tube?
Many medium fruits can fit through the 75mm tube, but produce must fit freely and stones, thick peel or unsuitable parts must be removed.
How much juice can it prepare?
Philips states that up to approximately 2L can be prepared in one session, depending on the ingredients.
Is it suitable for bananas and avocado?
These soft ingredients are better processed in a blender because they do not release juice efficiently in a centrifugal juicer.
Are the parts dishwasher safe?
Yes. Philips lists the removable parts as dishwasher safe.
Does it retain all the fibre?
No. A juicer separates much of the pulp. Choose a blender when you want the whole ingredient retained in the drink.
