The AUTO10 Series is our collection of large-capacity hands-free slow juicers. They use masticating technology and auto-chopping and feeding features to make bulk juicing possible and effortless.
The AUTO10 was the first in the series, followed by the AUTO10 Plus, and now the newest AUTO10 SQUARE™ Plus.
Learn what’s new and different about the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus and what is the same across all three models. We’ve broken down the merits of the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus, AUTO10 Plus, and AUTO10 across a few categories.
Read until the end for a summary to help you decide which of the 3 AUTO10 models is the best for you.
AUTO10 vs. AUTO10 Plus vs. SQUARE Plus
The most obvious difference is that the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus is square-shaped. In fact, it is the first square-shaped vertical slow juicer on the market.
It costs less than the previous AUTO10 models because it includes fewer accessories. Continue reading to see what the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus includes.
| AUTO10 | AUTO10 Plus | AUTO10 SQUARE Plus | |
| Shape | Circular | Circular | Square |
| Price | $729.99 | $769.99 | $699.99 |
| Colors | Black, silver, white | Silver, white | Black, ivory |
| Warranty | 15 years | 15 years | 15 years |
Hopper
The AUTO10 has the smallest loading capacity of the three models because it does not come with a hopper extension. However, 100 oz is still a sizable loading capacity. You can load a good amount of ingredients with minimal prep and get a high yield with the AUTO10. You can also buy the hopper extension to convert your AUTO10 into the AUTO10 Plus.
The AUTO10 Plus and the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus have different hopper and hopper extension sizes. The AUTO10 Plus has a larger hopper (100 oz) and a smaller hopper extension (35 oz). The AUTO10 SQUARE Plus has a smaller hopper (88 oz) and a larger hopper extension (64 oz).
The smaller 88-oz hopper provides more clearance to fit the juicer under cabinets. The size is also more convenient for smaller juice batches and recipes like nut milks and sorbets.
With the hopper extension attached, the AUTO10 Plus and the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus have an increased capacity. The AUTO10 Plus has a maximum capacity of 135 ounces. The AUTO10 SQUARE Plus has a maximum capacity of 152 ounces, the largest on the market. The larger hoppers require less prep, fit more ingredients, and yield more juice in one batch.
All three have stainless steel hopper blades. The blade chops ingredients before feeding them to the juicing chamber.
| AUTO10 | AUTO10 Plus | AUTO10 SQUARE Plus | |
| Hopper capacity | 100 oz | 100 oz | 88 oz |
| Hopper extension | No (sold separately) | Yes | Yes |
| Max capacity | 100 oz | 135 oz | 152 oz |
| Stainless steel blade | Yes | Yes | Yes |

Assembly & Cleaning
Assembling and cleaning all 3 models are essentially the same because they have the same parts.
All three models’ pulp spouts open, making the hardest area to clean much easier to access.
The AUTO10 Plus and AUTO10 include 2 extra cleaning tools compared to the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus. All 3 models come with the basic cleaning brush. The AUTO10 Plus and AUTO10 include a round brush and a green strainer cleaning tool. The extra tools are nice to have on hand, but don’t make the cleaning experience vastly different.

| Cleaning tools | 2 brushes, 1 strainer tool | 2 brushes, 1 strainer tool | 1 brush |
Juice & Pulp Cups
The juice cups are the same for all three models. The pulp cup is larger for the AUTO10 Plus and the AUTO10 SQUARE Plus to account for their larger hoppers with the extension. You can swap the cups if you think the larger cup is better for juice.
