What is the difference between a Juicer, Blender, Smoothie Maker, Liquidiser?

Or are they similar and do the same thing.

1. the price
2. The mess.
3. Juicer squeezes the juice out of the fruit, not skin/pips/pulp. Blender mixes things together, ie cake mixtures. Smoothie makers crushes whole pieces of fruit so you get all the fruit, not just the juice. A liquidiser is basically just a blender, it just cuts things up....ie vegetables for soup. Get a smoothie maker...they are the best. Some have attachment for all of the above, but they are expensive....try Breville they make a good one. Take care xx
4. Nothing different at all is there.
5. about 25 quid
6. I'm assuming a Liquidiser and a Juicer are the same thing--you put the fruit in and squeeze the juice out. A blender and a smoothie maker both mix whatever you put in them.
7. Marketing oh and how much it cuts up the stuff !!!
8. the washing up
9. juicer can only make juice - skins stay on top part of the machine blender mixes ingredients to a desired consistency - lumpy to smooth - can make smoothies well smoothie maker does what is says - dont need it if you have a blender liquidiser turns what you put in it to liquid
10. Citrus juicer just squeezes the juice out, ordinary juicer removes the juice from fruit and veg you put in except for bananas as they ahve no juice. Liquidiser just turns what you put in to a pulp, can be fruit, veg, meat, etc doesn't remove skin etc, and a smoothie maker is a type of liquidiser and just mixes everything together, so will mix banana into other fruits to make the smoothie
11. the spelling is the only difference..
