FAQs

No, though they solve the same problem. An iron uses a hot plate pressed directly onto fabric laid flat on a board. A clothes steamer uses a continuous flow of hot steam to relax the fibres while the garment hangs, so creases fall out without pressing. That makes a steamer gentler on fabrics, faster for most garments, and far better for anything you can’t or shouldn’t press flat, like suits, dresses, embellished fabrics and curtains.

An iron presses creases out with heat and pressure, which gives sharp, flat results but risks scorching or shining delicate fabrics, and needs a board. A steamer relaxes creases out with hot steam while the garment hangs, which is quicker, kinder to delicate fabrics, and needs no ironing board. Steam also freshens clothes and removes odours as it works. For everyday shirts, dresses, trousers and knitwear, a steamer is faster and easier. An iron still wins for razor-sharp pleats and heavy creases in thick cotton.

For most people, yes. A steamer handles the everyday wardrobe, shirts, blouses, dresses, trousers, suits and knitwear, in a fraction of the time and with no ironing board. It also does things an iron can’t, like refreshing curtains, bedding and upholstery in place. If you regularly need knife-sharp pleats or creases, you may want to keep an iron in the cupboard for those jobs.

A handheld steamer is compact, light and heats up in seconds, ideal for quick touch-ups, small ironing piles, travel and anyone short on storage space. Its trade-off is a smaller water tank, so it suits a few garments at a time. A full-sized upright steamer has a much larger tank for long uninterrupted steaming sessions, more powerful continuous steam, and usually a pole and hanger so garments hang at the perfect height while you work. It’s the right choice for big weekly ironing piles, heavy fabrics like curtains and coats, and professional use. In short: handheld for speed, convenience and travel; full-sized for volume, power and comfort over longer sessions.

Yes, and it’s one of the best reasons to own one. Hot steam penetrates the fibres, releasing trapped odours like food, smoke and mustiness, so garments come up fresh without a wash. It’s ideal for suits, coats, knitwear and anything dry-clean-only, and it helps your clothes last longer because you wash them less.

Absolutely. Because you steam fabric wherever it hangs or lies, curtains can be freshened without taking them down, and bedding, cushions and upholstery can be revived in place. Steam also helps neutralise odours and refresh fabrics that are difficult to wash.

Don’t you dare! It will hurt.

We’ve written a full guide on how to descale a clothes steamer. You can read it here.

We don’t advise to add anything to the water as this will both damage the heater and invalidate your guarantee (unless it is a Fridja approved product!) However, there is nothing wrong with spraying the garment with the scent / ironing water prior to steaming. You’ll get the same effect and you won’t damage your beautiful steamer!

Check out a video here!

Though we recommend using distilled or demineralised water, normal tap water may be used. This carries the risk of more sediment buildup, so occasionally empty the unit. Do not allow the water to become stale. Old water containing mineral buildup or mildew may cause stains or musty odours. Follow the descaling instructions in the manual if necessary. Never use scented or starched water, as they could clog up your steamer and cause malfunction.

If you use it regularly, it should not be necessary to empty the steamer after each use. However, if you only use it once in a while please do empty it to prevent any leaking or limescale/algae developing. We advise to not leave the steamer/water tank in direct sunlight.

We do indeed. Our most popular video on YouTube is our video ‘Top 5 Tips On How To Use A Clothes Steamer’. You can see it here!

The clasp attachment is an optional accessory for the f1200 Clothes Steamer Pro, which you can buy here.

First, check the water tank is inserted the correct way round — the tank must be facing down so that water can feed into the steamer. It’s a very common mix-up and takes two seconds to fix. If the tank is in correctly, the issue could be a blockage or a buildup of sediment. For detailed descaling instructions, please refer to the f1200 manual. Following these steps should resolve the issue.

A gurgling sound is normal during the steaming process. If you’re experiencing excessive gurgling, try extending the hose to allow any excess water to drain back into the water storage tank. This should help reduce the noise.

You can purchase a hose and other new parts through our online shop. Just visit our website to find the parts you need.

A person with experience with a steamer will never burn themselves, however when you begin it’s a natural worry that you might burn yourself. Therefore we’d always advise you always pay attention! Be aware of the hot steam! Secondly, wear the heat-resistant glove. It should stop any hot steam from you burning you.

It’s easy to forget that when you are steaming, the bottom bits of the garments (you know, the bits near the floor) are just as easy to steam as the top bits. You can simply lift the clothes off of the floor with one hand and steam with the other! Remember this when doing long things like trousers or dresses. In addition, you can always use the heat-resistant glove for extra support!

A fabric shaver removes the little balls of fibre, known as pills or bobbles, that build up on clothes with wear and washing. Its rotating blades sit safely behind a mesh guard and shave the pills off the surface, collecting them in a lint catcher. A jumper that looks tired and worn can genuinely look almost new again in a couple of minutes.

Pilling is caused by friction. As fabric rubs against itself, other clothes or your bag straps, loose fibres tangle into little balls on the surface. It happens to knitwear, coats, joggers and even sofas, and it’s a sign of normal wear rather than poor quality. A fabric shaver removes the pills without damaging the garment underneath.

A lint roller picks up loose debris sitting on top of fabric, like hair, dust and fluff. It can’t do anything about pills, because they’re attached to the garment. A fabric shaver cuts the pills off cleanly and collects them. Ideally you want both in the drawer: the roller for surface fluff, the shaver for bringing bobbled fabric back to life.

Use the provided USB cable to connect the device to a 5V power source. This will charge your device efficiently.

Our fabric shaver is rechargeable with a USB-C connection, which makes it super convenient. No need to fuss with batteries—just plug it in with any USB-C cable, and you’re ready to go. It’s perfect for regular use and super easy to charge.

Currently, our shaver is available only in Black. Keep an eye on our social media for any updates on new colour options!

Our fabric shaver keeps things simple with one easy setting that works great on all kinds of fabrics. The shaver’s head has multiple-sized holes, which means it can effectively remove fuzz, lint, and pills without needing any complicated adjustments. It’s as straightforward as it gets!

Don’t worry, keeping your fabric shaver in top shape is a breeze. Our model comes with a little lint catcher that’s easy to empty after each use. Plus, it includes a small brush to help you clean the blades and remove any leftover fibers. A quick clean after each use will keep it running smoothly!

Not at all! Our fabric shaver is designed to be kind to your clothes while it works its magic on those annoying pills and fuzz. The single setting and multi-sized holes are crafted to be effective yet gentle, so your clothes will look as good as new, without any risk of damage!

Absolutely! Our fabric shaver is designed to be gentle on everything from your softest wool sweaters to more durable fabrics like cotton and polyester. However, to be extra sure, I recommend trying it on a small, hidden area first—especially with your most delicate items. It’s always better to be safe than sorry!

The shaver should only be used on clothes when they are not being worn. Place the clothes on a flat surface for the best results.

It does the same job in a very different package. A full-sized blender is mains-powered, has a large jug and lives on your worktop. A portable blender is battery-powered, blends single servings, and the cup you blend in is the cup you drink from, so there’s no pouring and almost no washing up. It’s designed for smoothies, shakes and iced drinks at home, at the gym, in the office or on the road, rather than big-batch cooking.

For what they’re designed for, absolutely. A good portable blender makes smooth single-serve smoothies, protein shakes, iced coffees and dressings with no trouble. The keys to great results are the same as any blender: add your liquid first, cut fruit into small pieces, and don’t overfill. For large batches, hot soups or heavy doughs, a full-sized blender is still the right tool.

Portable blenders are made for life on the move: charge over USB and blend anywhere. If you’re flying, they contain a lithium battery, so like power banks they should go in your hand luggage rather than checked baggage. Rules vary by airline, so it’s always worth checking with yours before you travel.

Avoid blending hard-shelled fruits, nuts, stones, hard skins, or large chunks of frozen fruits. To prevent the blades from jamming and activating the blockage protection, cut fruits and vegetables into 1-inch pieces before blending.

Make sure you’re using a compatible charging adapter or cable that supports 5V/2A. This should help resolve the charging issue.

The multi-colour LED light indicator on the f500 portable blender provides useful information at a glance. It shows the battery level and operation status, so you’ll always know when it’s time to recharge or if the blender is ready for use.

Yes! Frozen fruit and ice work brilliantly in the f500 Portable Blender, as long as you always include a liquid base such as water, juice, or milk. The liquid helps the blades move ingredients smoothly and protects the motor. Cut frozen fruit into pieces of around 1 inch before blending, and never blend frozen items on their own.

Blending frozen items alone without a liquid base can strain the motor and void your warranty. Always ensure there is a liquid base when using the f500 Portable Blender.

Absolutely! The f500 Portable Blender is designed with safety in mind. It includes motor overload protection and a secure locking mechanism to ensure safe operation. Plus, it’s made from high-quality, BPA-free materials for your peace of mind. Please note it is designed for use by adults and should be kept out of the reach of children.

The f500 portable blender is incredibly versatile and can handle a variety of ingredients. From fruits and vegetables to ice, smoothies, iced coffee, cooking sauces, and baby food—its powerful 240W motor and durable design make it suitable for all these tasks.

Cleaning the f500 Portable Blender is a breeze thanks to its auto-clean function. After use, simply add a bit of water and dish soap to the jar, run the blender for a few seconds, and then rinse thoroughly. For best results, hand-wash the parts if needed and ensure they are completely dry before reassembling. Never put the base in the dishwasher or submerge it in water.

The f500 portable blender features a USB-C charging port and takes approximately 4-5 hours to fully charge. With its long-lasting battery, you’ll get up to 15 blends per charge, making it perfect for regular use without frequent recharging.

A basket-style air fryer cooks in a drawer you pull out, which works well but limits capacity and means you cook one thing at a time, unseen. An air fryer oven combines that same fast, hot air circulation with the format of an oven: a door, a window, interior light, shelves and multiple functions, so you can air fry, roast, bake and more, watch your food as it cooks, and fit family-sized portions or several dishes at once.

Air frying crisps food with rapidly circulating hot air instead of a pan of oil, so you can achieve golden, crunchy results with little to no added oil. That means dramatically less fat than deep frying, no lingering oil smell in your kitchen, and no hot oil to deal with afterwards.

For most everyday cooking, yes. It preheats in a fraction of the time, cooks faster, and because you’re heating a smaller space, it typically uses less energy than firing up a full-size oven. Roast dinners, chips, baked goods, fish, vegetables and reheating all work brilliantly. Your main oven earns its keep for very large joints, multiple big trays, or Christmas dinner.

Far less than traditional frying or roasting. With little to no oil in use, there’s minimal smoke and smell, and a crumb tray catches any drips. A quick wash of the trays and racks after use keeps everything fresh.

The f66 Super Oven is a compact 15L digital air fryer oven that air fries, roasts and bakes. With 12 smart presets, a premium stainless steel interior and fast convection heat circulation, it delivers crisp, even, golden results using little to no oil. From roast chicken and chips to flatbreads and quick bites, it handles everyday meals as well as a full-size oven, at air fryer speed.

The f66 Super Oven is our compact 15L model with 12 presets, ideal for smaller households and tighter worktops. The f77 Super Oven Pro steps up to a 30L capacity with 18 presets and includes a full rotisserie kit, built for bigger meals and family cooking. Both use powerful convection cooking, need little to no oil, and are completely free of chemical non-stick coatings.

No. All food contact parts in the f66 Super Oven are made without chemical non-stick coatings. The oven is PFAS free, PTFE free and PFOA free, with no Teflon used anywhere inside. The interior is premium stainless steel.

Very little, and often none at all. The f66 Super Oven uses powerful convection cooking to crisp food with hot air rather than oil. A light spray can add extra crunch to some foods, but most recipes work brilliantly with no oil added.

Rarely, and never for long. The f66 Super Oven’s convection system comes up to temperature in a fraction of the time a full-size oven takes, so most dishes can go straight in. For baked goods where an exact starting temperature matters, give it just a few minutes to preheat and you’re ready to cook.

That’s the convection cooking doing its job. The f66 Super Oven gets very hot very quickly and circulates heat more efficiently than a typical oven, so food often needs less time than a recipe written for a conventional oven suggests. When you first use it, keep an eye on your food and check a few minutes early — you’ll quickly learn how much faster it runs.

Let the oven cool fully, then wipe the stainless steel interior with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent. The trays and racks can be washed in warm soapy water. Avoid harsh abrasives or scourers, and never immerse the oven itself in water. Because there are no chemical non-stick coatings to protect, the accessories are easy to keep in good condition.

Yes. Genuine replacement accessories, such as the f66 baking tray, are available in our spare parts range. Like the oven itself, they contain no PFAS, PTFE or PFOA coatings.

Yes, like all Fridja products the f66 Super Oven comes with a 12-month warranty.

The f77 Super Oven Pro is a 30L digital air fryer oven built for bigger meals and total cooking versatility. It has 18 presets, a powerful convection system, and a full rotisserie kit included, all in a sleek matte black finish. Whether you are roasting a whole rotisserie chicken, baking cookies or crisping sweet potato wedges, it delivers fast, even cooking with little to no oil.

Yes. The f77 Super Oven Pro comes with a full rotisserie kit included in the box, so you can cook a whole rotisserie chicken at home with no extra purchases needed.

No. All food contact parts in the f77 Super Oven Pro are made without chemical non-stick coatings. The oven is PFAS free, PTFE free and PFOA free, with no Teflon used anywhere inside.

Genuine f77 Super Oven Pro accessories, including the grill rack, air fryer basket, baking tray and crumb tray, are available as replacements or extras in our spare parts range. They are made to the same standard as the originals, and the trays contain no PFAS, PTFE or PFOA coatings.

The crumb tray catches drips during cooking, so most days you just slide it out and wash it along with any racks or trays you used, in warm soapy water. Once the oven has cooled fully, wipe the interior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh abrasives, and never immerse the oven itself in water.

Usually not. The f77 Super Oven Pro’s powerful convection system reaches temperature far quicker than a full-size oven, so most meals can go straight in. If a recipe relies on an exact starting temperature, such as breads or pastries, a few minutes of preheating is all it needs.

The f77 Super Oven Pro heats up very quickly and its convection system moves hot air around your food far more efficiently than a conventional oven, so cooking times are often shorter than a standard recipe suggests. The first few times you use it, check your food a few minutes earlier than the recipe says — it’s more powerful and faster than a typical oven, and you’ll soon get a feel for the timings.

Yes. If your f77 is out of warranty, we offer a professional repair service to restore it to peak performance. Please contact us and we’ll arrange it for you.

Yes, like all Fridja products the f77 Super Oven Pro comes with a 12-month warranty.

A centrifugal juicer shreds produce with a fast-spinning blade and flings the juice out through a sieve. It’s quick but noisy, produces warmer, frothier juice, and leaves wetter pulp, meaning wasted juice. A masticating juicer, which is what all Fridja whole fruit juicers are, slowly presses and crushes produce with an auger. It’s quieter, extracts more juice from the same fruit, handles leafy greens far better, and produces smoother juice with richer colour and flavour that keeps for longer.

Cold press, masticating, slow and auger juicers are all names for the same thing: a juicer that crushes and presses produce slowly rather than shredding it at high speed. Whichever name you see, it describes the way our whole fruit juicers work.

A juicer separates the liquid from the pulp, so you drink pure juice with the fibre removed. A blender keeps everything in, blitzing whole ingredients into a thicker smoothie, fibre included. Neither is better, they’re just different drinks: juice is lighter and lets you consume a large amount of fruit and veg in one glass, while a smoothie is more filling. Plenty of our customers own both.

Fresh orange juice gets an unfair reputation, usually from being lumped in with shop-bought juice drinks and sodas. The sugar in freshly squeezed juice is naturally occurring fruit sugar, not added sugar, and it arrives alongside vitamin C, potassium, folate and beneficial plant compounds that sugary drinks simply don’t have. Freshly squeezed juice also contains no preservatives, no added sugar and none of the processing of long-life cartons. Like anything, it’s about sensible portions: a fresh glass with breakfast is a world away from drinking sweetened drinks all day. If sugar is a particular concern for you, a good trick is juicing oranges alongside lower-sugar produce like celery, cucumber or greens, something a whole fruit juicer makes easy.

Because cold press juicing generates very little heat, the juice keeps its flavour, colour and nutrients for longer than juice from a centrifugal machine. Stored in a sealed bottle or container in the fridge, it’s at its best within 48 to 72 hours. Natural separation is completely normal, just give it a shake.

Because it’s actually fresh. Shop-bought juice is usually pasteurised and processed for shelf life, which changes its colour, texture and taste. Freshly pressed juice is more vibrant, may contain fine pulp, and will naturally separate as it sits. That separation is a sign of real, unprocessed juice, not a fault. Shake and enjoy.

You can juice various citrus fruits, such as oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, and tangerines. For optimal results, make sure the fruit fits well on the dome.

The fruit may have become caught during operation. Press the reset button to return the spindle to the lowered position, and then clean the juicer thoroughly. This should help resolve the issue.

You can purchase the spout and other new parts through our online shop. Just visit our website to find the parts you need.

We recommend handwashing. Because of the high-quality Tritan plastics we use, cleaning takes under 60 seconds — simply rinse the detachable parts in warm water with a little mild detergent straight after use. Never put the main body of the juicer in the dishwasher or submerge it in water; just wipe it with a damp cloth.

For optimal performance and hygiene, we recommend cleaning the juicer after every use. This prevents residue buildup and ensures that your juicer continues to function efficiently.

Yes! Here is a link on how to easily clean your citrus juicer in a few simple steps.

When not in use, disassemble the juicer and ensure all parts are clean and dry. Store the components in a dry place, preferably in their original packaging or in a dedicated storage container. Keep the base in a cool, dry area, and avoid placing heavy objects on top of it.

The f900 Automatic Citrus Juicer is tailored to extract juice from citrus fruits like oranges, lemons, and limes. It is not intended for harder fruits or vegetables like apples or carrots. For those, you should use a different model like our f1900 Whole Fruit Juicer or f2500 Self Feeding Whole Fruit Juicer.

Cut them into chunks small enough to easily slip down the feeding chute. Most citrus fruit rind tastes unpleasant so should be peeled first (lemon being the exception). Our f1900 whole fruit slow juicer will require little to no cutting of fruits and vegetables, wahey!

Making nut milk is also very simple in a slow juicer. Soak nuts overnight in a covered bowl. The next day (the longer left, the more creamy the milk), rinse the water off and add fresh water. The more water added, the thinner the consistency of the milk will be. Then ladle in a mixture of freshwater and soaked nuts. You will very quickly be in the company of, nut milk!

Yes! Cooled fruits and vegetables produce a higher yield and better tasting juice. Never use frozen produce though! This might damage your juicer.

Try soaking the parts in soapy water for at least 12 hours. This should help soften any food that’s stuck and make it easier to twist them off. If needed, use a bit of extra force to loosen them up.

Making delicious nutter butters (AKA peanut butter) is very easy in a slow juicer. Simply slowly feed in your nuts and your nut butter will come out of the pulp chute.

If your f1900 Whole Fruit Juicer is making unusual noises, it could be due to a few reasons:

Blockages: Check if any pieces of fruit or vegetable are stuck in the juicer.
Misalignment: Make sure all parts are correctly assembled.
Overloading: Try processing smaller amounts of produce at a time.

Try wrapping a towel around the lid for a better grip. Then, turn the lid counter-clockwise with extra force. It’s possible that the lid has just come out of alignment with the thread. This should help you loosen it.

Absolutely, you can juice ginger and turmeric! Make sure to cut these fibrous ingredients into small pieces before juicing, and combine them with fruits that have a high juice yield. If your juicer becomes jammed, try running it in reverse or removing the ingredients. Using the pusher can also help guide them through. Some people find it helpful to grate the ginger and turmeric beforehand to make the process smoother. Enjoy your juice!

No worries! You can easily arrange a repair service through our website. Just follow this link to purchase the repair service: f1900 repair service. 

Knock the Auger: Gently knock the side of the auger with a small hammer or firmly with your hand to release the tension.
Run the Juicer in Reverse: Set the juicer to reverse mode for about 20 seconds.
Pour Water: Slowly pour water through the juicer where you feed the fruits.
Drain and Disassemble: Let the water run out, then remove the bowl and place it in the sink.
Warm Water: Run warm water over the bowl and auger.
Wiggle the Strainer: Gently wiggle the strainer by placing your hands on each side.
Soak if Necessary: If the auger is still stuck, allow it to soak for a few hours.

The height of the main body of the juicer, from the base to the handle is 35.5 cm. You can keep the main body on your countertop and store the other parts in a cupboard when not in use.

Making nut milks like almond or cashew is easy and a great dairy-free option with your new juicer. Just set up your juicer with the juice filter as if you were making regular juice. Soak your nuts, such as almonds, overnight in a bowl. The next day, drain and rinse them, then add them to the juicer with fresh water. Pour in a ladleful of nuts and water at a time, and enjoy your homemade nut milk!

Check out this video to make sure everything is set up correctly: Watch the video. If your juicer still won’t turn on, try plugging it into a different socket. You might also want to replace the fuse in the plug with a 10 or 13 amp fuse.

Making sorbet is simple and fun! Just freeze your favourite fruits, let them thaw for about 10 minutes, then pop them into the juicer. For a tasty fruit ice cream, freeze bananas and other fruits, let them thaw for 10 minutes, and then blend them together in the juicer. Enjoy your homemade treat!

Both the f1900 Whole Fruit Juicer and f2500 Self Feeding Whole Fruit Juicer give you great cold-pressed juice and come with a 12-month warranty. The main differences are in their design and cleaning. The f1900 has more parts and requires you to cut your produce into smaller pieces. The f2500 is self-feeding, so it needs far less chopping, and with fewer parts it is quicker to clean. Either model will serve you well, and you can watch the video overviews on each product page for more detail.

Our juicers can handle most fruits and vegetables, but there are a few exceptions. We don’t recommend juicing sugar cane, coconut, bananas, dried herbs or spices, liquorice root, grains, or seeds. Also, fish and meat are a no-go because that’s just not pleasant. Avoid juicing frozen fruits or vegetables, and always remove stones and pips from your fruit before juicing. Enjoy your fresh juice

Attempting to juice any of the above will void your warranty.
