Dash Deluxe Compact Masticating Juicer Review

A machine whose entire premise is footprint. 130 watts is the honest cost of that.

The Dash exists because some kitchens genuinely do not have room for a full-size juicer, and a machine you can fit beats a machine you cannot. That is a real argument. The honest counterpart is 130 watts -- the lowest figure in our registry -- and no published RPM, which together make this a soft-produce machine rather than an all-rounder.

Everything Dash publishes for this model. Scroll the table sideways on a narrow screen. Every figure above is labeled with where it came from; “Not available” means we could not find a published source, not that the machine performs badly. How we pick.

What Dash states

  • 130 W, 120 V, 60 Hz.
  • A 20 oz capacity.
  • A frozen-dessert attachment, plus a brush and a pulp measuring cup.
  • A 1-year limited warranty from StoreBound, extending to 2 years with registration to the rewards program.
  • Model DCSJ255, marketed as the Deluxe Compact slow juicer.

No RPM, and -- notably for a machine sold on its size -- no published dimensions on the pages we checked. For a compact juicer that is a strange omission: the one specification the product is marketed on is the one not provided. We flag it rather than estimate it.

The registration warranty is worth claiming

Dash states that registering the product with its rewards program extends the warranty from one year to two. That is a free doubling of cover that most buyers never do, and it takes a few minutes.

Even at two years this is short -- Cuisinart quotes three in a similar band and Omega quotes fifteen at a higher one -- but it is the cheapest warranty improvement available anywhere in this category and it would be odd not to take it.

130 watts, honestly

For context: Nutribullet and AMZCHEF both state 150 W, Omega states 150 to 200 W, Kuvings 240 W. 130 W is the floor of our registry, and the produce that exposes it is hard roots -- carrots, beets, firm ginger.

For leafy greens, celery, cucumber, tomatoes and soft fruit, 130 W is adequate because those do not demand much torque. So the honest framing is that this is a machine for soft and fibrous produce in a small kitchen, and not a machine for a daily carrot habit.

If hard roots are your plan, Omega's J8006HDS or any 800 W-plus centrifugal machine is the right tool. See juicers for carrots and juicers for beets.

The frozen-dessert attachment

Pushes frozen fruit through the auger to produce a soft-serve-textured dessert, which is a genuinely enjoyable function and the kind of thing that gets a machine used more often. It is not a reason to buy on its own, but it is more useful than most accessories.

Who this is for

Somebody in a studio apartment, a dorm or a kitchen with no spare counter, who wants cold press mechanics and has genuinely decided footprint is the priority. That is a real group that the rest of this category largely ignores.

Also somebody juicing mostly greens, celery and soft produce, where the wattage limitation does not bite.

Who should skip it

Anybody with normal counter space. If a full-size machine fits, buy one -- for similar money Nutribullet's slow juicer is 65 RPM with 150 W, a published 17 x 6.25 x 7 in footprint and a reverse function, which is a better specification on every axis that is published.

Also skip it if you juice hard roots daily, or if you want to know the speed and size before you buy -- Dash publishes neither.

Dash DCSJ255 · $100–200 · Our score 6.8/10

Dash states 130 W, a 20 oz catch cup, a frozen-dessert attachment, and a 1-year limited warranty that extends to 2 years with product registration -- a free second year most owners never claim. The premise is footprint, and for a studio kitchen that is a legitimate priority. 130 W is the weakest motor in our registry and Dash publishes no RPM, so a daily carrot-and-beet habit asks a lot of it.

What works

  • Genuinely small - the footprint is the feature
  • Frozen-dessert attachment included
  • The second warranty year is free if you register it

What does not

  • 130 W is the weakest motor in this registry
  • 20 oz cup is small
  • No RPM published, so it cannot be compared on speed

Skip this if: You juice hard carrots and beets daily. 130 W is the least power of any masticating machine here.

Questions people ask

Is the Dash compact juicer any good?
For soft and fibrous produce in a kitchen with no spare counter, yes. At 130 W it is the weakest motor in our registry, so it is not the machine for a daily carrot-and-beet habit.
How big is the Dash DCSJ255?
Dash does not publish dimensions on the pages we checked, which is an odd omission for a machine sold on its compactness. It states a 20 oz capacity and 130 W.
What is the Dash juicer's warranty?
Dash states a 1-year limited warranty from StoreBound, extending to 2 years if you register the product with its rewards program. The second year is free and most owners never claim it.
Is 130 watts enough for a juicer?
For leafy greens, celery, cucumber and soft fruit, yes. For hard carrots and beets daily it is working harder than it should -- most cold press machines state 150 W or more.
Dash or Nutribullet for a small kitchen?
Nutribullet, if it fits. It publishes 65 RPM, 150 W, a 17 x 6.25 x 7 in footprint and a reverse function, which is a better specification on every published axis at similar money.
What can the Dash juicer handle comfortably?
Leafy greens, celery, cucumber, tomatoes and soft fruit, where 130 W is adequate because none of them demands much torque. Hard carrots, beets and firm ginger are where the weakest motor in our registry shows, so a daily root-vegetable habit asks a lot of it.
Is the frozen-dessert attachment worth having?
It pushes frozen fruit through the auger to produce a soft-serve texture, and it is genuinely enjoyable -- the kind of function that gets a machine used more often. It is not a reason to buy on its own, but it is more useful than most bundled accessories.
