The verdict
The Borosil Primus is a 500 W centrifugal juicer with two speeds and a wide chute for ₹4,666 to ₹4,975, aimed at quick everyday fruit juice on a budget. The catch: Borosil's own page lists both 1-year and 2-year warranties, and its Flipkart rating is a middling 3.8 from 168 ratings.
Best for
- Households that want fast juice from soft and hard fruit without paying cold-press prices
- First-time buyers who want a juicer with on-site service
Skip it if
- You mainly juice leafy greens or wheatgrass; Borosil does not pitch the Primus for those, while slow juicers are
- You want a clear warranty term before you buy
What we like
- 500 W copper motor at about 18,000 RPM with two speeds (Borosil)
- Wide chute: Borosil's graphic says 64 mm, enough for some whole fruit
- On-site service with toll-free numbers and WhatsApp support
What we don’t
- Borosil's page says "2 years on product and 2 years on motor" in one place and "1 year on product and motor" in another
- Rated 3.8 from 168 Flipkart ratings; owners mention build quality and a pulp collector that unbalances the unit
- Country of origin is PRC on Borosil's page but India on Flipkart

In this review
How we researched this
We have not used this juicer. Specs, warranty text and price come from Borosil’s official product page and its image gallery. Retail data comes from the Flipkart listing. Both were read on 12 November 2026.
We could not verify juice yield, pulp dryness, noise, foam or cleaning time, and we could not open the Amazon.in listing.
What you get on paper
A 500 W, 100% copper motor spinning at about 18,000 RPM, two speeds for soft and hard produce, a stainless steel mesh, a juice jug and a pulp collector. Borosil’s gallery says the chute is 64 mm wide and “juices whole fruits”, though in practice that means smaller fruit. Borosil lists 2.28 kg; Flipkart lists 3.5 kg.
A centrifugal juicer is the fast, cheaper option. Borosil pitches the Primus at everyday fruit and vegetable juice for the whole family, not at leafy greens.
What owners report
Flipkart shows 3.8 stars from 168 ratings, with no review text visible to us. Borosil’s store has 12 reviews (8 five-star, 3 four-star, 1 one-star). One owner says it is a “great juicer but build quality could have been better”. Borosil’s own AI summary of its reviews mentions build quality, a waste collector design “causing balance issues” and missing invoices.
Support and warranty
Borosil says an engineer will visit for on-site repairs, and lists two toll-free numbers, an email address and a WhatsApp line. The warranty term is the problem: the same page gives 2 years in one section and 1 year in another, and Flipkart’s seller says 1 year.
Claims to treat with caution
- “Retains the maximum nutrients.” Borosil says its centrifugal extraction does this. Slow-juicer brands, including Borosil for its own HealthPro, make the same claim for low RPM. We have seen no test data for either.
- Country of origin. PRC on Borosil’s page, India on Flipkart.
- Weight. 2.28 kg vs 3.5 kg.
Should you buy it?
For quick everyday fruit juice under ₹5,000, the Primus covers the basics with home service. Its Flipkart rating is only middling and the warranty wording is contradictory, so buy from Borosil’s own store, screenshot the warranty section, and keep the invoice.

Questions buyers ask
What warranty does the Borosil Primus juicer have?
It depends where you read it. Borosil's own product page says "2 years on product and 2 years on motor" in its details, but "1 year on product and motor" in its warranty and service note. The Flipkart listing says 1 year. Ask Borosil to confirm in writing and keep your invoice.
Is a centrifugal juicer like the Primus good for green juice?
It is not what it is designed for. Borosil pitches the Primus at fruit and vegetables generally, while slow (cold press) juicers such as the Hurom H320N are specifically marketed for wheatgrass and leafy greens. If greens are your main use, a slow juicer is the safer bet.
Is the Borosil Primus made in China or India?
Borosil's own packing details list the country of origin as PRC (China). The Flipkart listing says India. We go with Borosil's own page.
Does Borosil offer home service for juicers?
Borosil says you can raise a service request and an engineer will visit to inspect and repair the appliance. It lists toll-free numbers 1-800-22-4552 and 1-800-21-06520.
