Really good but not GREAT.
4 Stars
Really good but not GREAT.
Let me preface this by saying I started my juicing journey back in January w a juicer I purchased here for about $50. I felt like for the amount of fruits/vegetables I was putting in, I was getting very little juice out and so I returned it and decided to upgrade to this. Let me start the pros. Super easy to put together, take an apart and clean, and I love the large container to collect the juice! The last one I had needed to be emptied several times into a larger container because it was so small. The chute is huge and can put oranges and small apples in whole. The percentage of juice that is extracted is much better, but I still find the pulp to be pretty wet. Now the one con- the foam. The attached photo is about 2 bags of carrots and a half a bag of oranges. As you can see, there’s quite a bit of foam on top. Overall, for the price I’m happy w my purchase. Eventually I’ll upgrade again, but for now this will work.

NOTE: 03/09/2022

I have learned some things since getting this wonderful juicer I would like to pass on to you, if you are considering getting one for yourself. In order to preserve the motor, DO NOT PUT WHOLE FRUITS IN MACHINE. I am now chopping fruits and vegetables up into smaller pieces which is making my machine purr instead of growl. Be careful with Beets, especially. Chop them into small chunks. Too fibrous. I find it relaxing chopping everything up. I was skeptical in the first place about putting whole apples, oranges, etc into the hopper. It is just too much for the motor to absorb day after day. Just wanted you to know about MY personal experience.

I am giving this juicer 5 Stars even though the cleaning brush was not included in the box. Amazon cannot send you one. I asked. I had a Breville juicer years ago but this one is far and away more powerful. Just be prepared to cover the slot with the stamper immediately after dropping in the fruits and veggies because it will fling the items into the air if the stamper isn't in place. After I got the hang of it everything was great.

Yes, it's easy to clean, but you have to disassemble the entire juicer and clean all the parts.

I made my first Breville Beverage as I call it, today. Clementines, carrots, green apples, ginger and one stalk of celery. What joy! I savored every drop and can't wait to do it again tomorrow for lunch. Today it is 3 below zero in NYC and my apartment is freezing even though the heat is on full tilt. A week ago it was 60 degrees in December! So I took my time making my drink in the warm kitchen and if there is one thing my body can't get enough of with the killer viruses it's fresh juice! My body is probably applauding me right now but I can't hear it because my teeth are chattering too loudly due to the freezing cold.

Aside from not getting the cleaning brush (I am using a tooth brush) everything was in the box ready to go. I was worried the voltage hookup in my apt. might not be able to handle the power but it held out. You worry about this in old apartments in NYC. Blown fuses are not fun. So far so good.

Fresh fruit is not cheap these days so I will keep the varieties of fruit at a minimum for the time being. Some neighborhood stores are cheaper than others so I do take that into consideration. what is more important in the time of Covid? Spending a few dollars for fruit and juicing them or getting Covid again. I have had it twice in two years. Not fun. And, at pushing 80, I have to be super careful.

The perfect product at the perfect time. I love what it did for me today and look forward to many more glasses of health in months to come. A wonderful purchase. Breville is a very reliable company. All my Breville products work like a charm. So glad I bought it.

UPDATE: 01-27-2022 The addition of this juicer to my every day life has been a life saver on many levels. I am saving a lot of money I would normally spend at the grocery store buying fruits and vegetables instead of chicken breasts and pork chops. There was a wonderful juice shop in Greenwich Village in the early 2000s that charged $10 for a small bottle of fresh juice. I made a special subway trip to the store twice a month. Due to rent increases the store closed. I kept one of the bottles in my freezer for some reason and so thankful I did. The Sweet & Dandy bottle contained: Beets, Oranges, Ginger, Apple, Pineapple, Celery, I now replicate that very same flavor every morning with my Breville juicer. Fabulous taste and incredibly good for me as well. I wish I had bought this juicer before the pandemic. It might have made me stronger and able to fight off colds, flues and Covid. Buy one today!

EDIT 11/13/2013: I just wanted to note that we've been using this juicer literally every day for the last eight months and it has worked flawlessly! We still love it... We've had a great experience with it and use it on a daily basis. If you have a baby or toddler, this is a fabulous way to introduce a unique fruit and vegetable flavor base to your child's tongue. If they learn this flavor early in life, it'll become part of their flavor palette for life. Many babies learn only different sweet flavors from processed food. Fresh fruit juice is very sweet, but vegetables are not typically sweet and have a particular flavor not all like. Our toddler LOVES the juices we make. We found combining apples, oranges, pears, celery, carrots, with half a lemon makes a frothy, milkshake-like juice that's both delicious and nutritious. Give it a try and experiment. Best of all, have fun with it!

The following is my original review from last March 2013. I have nothing to correct or add to it, other than the above. Read on...

I had the most amazing juice I've ever tasted in my life the other day. I love pineapple and have always enjoyed pineapple juice. It's my favorite of all fruit juices. After buying the Breville Juice Fountain Plus juicer, I picked up a whole pineapple and my wife juiced it up. WOW... I couldn't believe what I tasted. I've never tasted anything like it and it's very different than store-bought pineapple juice. It's so milky and creamy and rich and perfectly balanced. We've been making juice with the Breville for a few weeks now, but this absolutely knocked me out and made me a huge fan of the Breville juicer.

I've read just about every review on Amazon about this product and our experience with this juicer is close to what others have said. I've found what we differ on is our experience with cleaning, leaking issues, and motor malfunctions.

We found cleaning to be very simple. There are only six or eight parts that need cleaning, and if you clean them immediately after juicing, cleanup takes about three to five minutes. It's important not to let the material dry on any component, especially the filter assembly. After juicing, the material on the filter washes off easily with the aid of the supplied brush. Use warm water and soap to scrub the material out of the fine filter mesh. If you let the material dry on the mesh filter, it will be much more difficult to clean. The order of operations should be 1) juice, 2) clean, and 3) enjoy!

The filter assembly is part of the blade assembly as one entire unit. This is different than some other juicers that have these parts separate. This makes juicing and cleaning easier. The other parts are simply plastic and wash off quickly and easily with warm water and soap.

We find the process of juicing to be fun! Our toddler loves to run in the room and watch the juicer consume material and regurgitate fresh, delicious juice into the serving carafe. The Breville Juice Fountain Plus has two speeds: low and high. Low is used for softer material, like oranges and kiwi. High is used for harder material, like apples, carrots, and pears. Not all fruits and vegetables need to be cut into smaller pieces in order to be properly juiced. Many items can be tossed in whole, as long as they fit into the 3" diameter hopper throat. Oranges, carrots, celery, cucumbers, and many other fruits and vegetables work great with little or no preparation. Just drop them in, push them down, and watch the juice begin to flow.

We've noticed, on occasion, material gets stuck in the hopper and does not juice. During those times, we stop the unit, take the top off, and reinsert the material in a different position. We've found most of the time this happens when the skin becomes an obstacle to the blades or we try to juice by inserting the material before starting the juicer. Always start the juicer first and then insert the material. This is where using the juicer takes a little getting used to. We've learned how to insert each type of fruit and vegetable. For instance, kale is best juiced between other items. We may put some apples in and then add a wadded-up amount of kale in, followed by a number of carrots inserted lengthwise to push the kale down. You'll learn how to juice each item in the Breville and the instances where material gets stuck will happen less often.

Most juice is dispensed into the carafe with some amount of foam. The Breville carafe comes with a foam skimmer built into the top of the carafe assembly that helps stop foam from being poured into glasses. This is a very nice feature. If you like the foam, you can take the top off the carafe and pour the juice directly into a glass, foam and all.

Unlike some other reviewers, we haven't noticed any problems with leaking, overflowing, clogging, or motor malfunction. It has worked flawlessly and extracts a nice quantity of juice. Material dispenses into the waste dispenser consistently dry with only a small amount of moisture.

One tip regarding the waste: if you're into gardening, save all the waste material for the compost. Just be careful of the seeds. Make sure it's fully composted, otherwise you might end up with surprise fruits and vegetables growing in your garden. :-)

The Breville Juice Fountain Plus is an excellent juicer with a powerful enough motor to negotiate a large variety of fruits and vegetables. Whether you're juicing soft fruits, hard vegetables, or leafy greens, this juicer will perform well and produce numerous gallons of fresh, nutritious juice for your entire family.

lo probé con betabel + zanahoria y no tuvo ningun problema para procesarlo.
Es de facil desarmado, para limpiarlo puedes hacerlo simplemente con el chorro de agua fuerte y no tendras problema para tallar, al ser plastico obviamente si lo tallas se va a rayar.
Lo he usado por 1 semana y jamas me ha dado problema, excelente producto.

My old juicer died and I just watched Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead, so I looked into buying the Breville Juice Fountain Plus. The reviews were very positive, so I ordered one from Amazon.ca, which had the best deal going. I'm happy to add my vote to all the glowing reviews. This machine works well and fast, it's very easy to clean, and it looks nice.

Don't believe reviewers who claim that you can't juice leafy greens well in a centrifugal juicer. I haven't had any problems juicing kale, spinach, collard greens, and the like in my Breville, and the pulp is pretty dry. I can't comment on juicing wheat grass, but since I don't buy that, it's not relevant for me.

I also took the advice I read (I can't remember where) to keep the machine on the counter -so that you'll actually use it- and store the pulp container and the juice jar in the cupboard. This saves a lot of counter space and works very well for me.

Ordering was simple and easy and delivery took only a couple of days. Great job Amazon.

probé a penas el extractor y realmente me gustó, exprime muy bien las frutas. También me gusta que tiene un contenedor externo a donde se va lo restante de la fruta, puedes usarlo para todo tipo de fruta pero no para aquellos como las hojitas del apio. eso no se licuar, hay que usar licuadora para ellas.
la parte en donde se van agregando las frutas es muy amplio, eso también es bueno porque puedes meter no sólo zanahorias, sino manzanas y frutas más grandes.
es fácil de lavar aunque sí trae muchas piezas.
en general lo recomiendo mucho.

I have only been using this for just over a month and I am not certain yet if I am really enjoying the machine or if I just missed having a juicer so much that having a new one feels like the greatest gift I have given myself.

First, it is a good machine: my old machine was much more industrial and was very heavy and sturdy while this machine is extremely lightweight and far easier to clean. In fairness to my old machine, it was purchased a so so long ago and things have change. The lightweight aspect of the Brevillenis one of the reasons I hesitated to purchase it, when you are used to a more industrial machine there might be a slight bias against anything else for fear that there wouldn’t be enough power to consistently process things like beets everyday but, thus far, the Breville has powered through near daily use for two people without a hiccup.

I was also hesitant because of my fears that this type of machine would overheat the nutrients rendering them nonexistent but I did my due diligence and did some research and the Jet factor seems to be minimal for the most part. The juice produced has also never been noticeable warmed that the temperature of the fruit at introduction.

And, the Breville is shocking quick to clean. Won’t lie, I still complain about cleaning it but it does not take long and the included brush does speed the cleaning of the blades (and keeps you from doing something stupid like thoughtlessly using a cloth and slicing your fingers).

Some people have complained it is loud but the higher power setting is not any louder than any other juicer I have had to use in the last couple of decades. It’s actually quieter than many but if you are not used to just how loud a juicer can be or did not appreciate how loud they actually are until you had one in your much-quieter-than-a-juice-bar home, I understand that the sound might be surprising. It is also the reason I do not make juice for my breakfast (I am often up at 4 am for work) and I will not run the juicer after 9:30/10pm.

At any rate, so happy to finally have the Breville in my home and, hopefully, I will have it for years to come.

Es una compra buena, nada mejor que apostar por tu salud, después de consumir un jugo fresco, nunca más querrás tomar un jugo de caja. Las posibilidades son infinitas pues puedes combinar diferentes frutas y verduras.

El ensamblado es rápido, y la limpieza de tu máquina debe ser inmediatamente después de realizar los jugos para postergar la vida de esta.

...Pero me sigue pareciendo que desperdicia mucha fruta y verduras (supuestamente solamente le quita la pulpa no soluble), pero yo soy de no de desperdiciar comida o desperdiciar lo mínimo posible
