Die-Cast Juice Fountain Elite Juicer by Breville

I bought this juicer after my Jack LaLanne stopped working effectively. This was an excellent purchase! At first I thought the price was kind of high, but now I think it was well worth the price. This juicer really does make juice in about 5 seconds, and it's really easy to clean and reassemble. Most parts are made of stainless steel, which makes the juicer look and feel more solid than the one I owned before, which was plastic.

The only thing I would change is the defrother pitcher that comes with the juicer. I don't think it removes all the froth that well, but it does remove some of it if you are really careful when you pour.

This our first juicer. We love it. It is well made, easy to use and easy to clean.

We had looked and looked for a high quality juicer and there are too many out there that are of low-grade quality. This juicer works similarly to other cheaper brands but I loved the large chute to put the fruit in...you really can put whole apples, pears and oranges in it which saves lots of time with cutting them up! I also liked the video that was available on the website, it really shows how it works. We do use a plastic bag in the pulp container as recommended and it saves time for cleanup. I highly recommend this juicer!

I am new to juicing, but I just recieved my Breville Elite...and it's been a life changing experience. Just a few of the amazing benefits.

1. I don't have a dishwasher, and this is still very easy to clean.
2. The added suggestion of using freezer bags to collect the pulp, is a huge time and mess saver as well.
3. I can fit whole fruits and veggies in the spout with ease!!
4. For a new comer, the suggested recipes and tips provided in the book, are a great starting point.

I would highly suggest this for anyone that has children that spend hours trying to get their children to eat fruits and veggies. I still hate raw beets at the age of 31, but grouped with a few carrots, small amount of ginger, and red apple---and you have a phenomenal start to your day.

Had been using a friend's older but top of the line Juiceman, until we had researched some others to buy our own. A recent issue of a cooking magazine rated a number of them and said that this one, though expensive, was worth every bit. We have now used it for 2 weeks, daily and found it to be quiet, easy and just plain great.
