I got this juicer for my first juicing experience because I have a great Breville convection toaster oven. I've been very pleased. The instructions were easy to follow. The juicer leaves very dry pulp. I feel great drinking the juice I make, full of dark, leafy greens, healthy veggies, ginger root, and a couple different fruits. The only complaint is some of the veggies, like broccoli, get stuck and gum up the system. The clear cover makes it easy to see where the problem is. If the item is not juiced all the way, I just put it back through the chute. I line the pulp container with a plastic produce bag to keep clean up easy. I do not put the food pusher or the blade part through the dishwasher, washing those by hand using the brush, but the clear plastic pieces go in and come out nicely.

This Breville Juice Fountain Plus 850-Watt Juice Extractor is a perfectly sized juicer that packs a punch and that will get through all of your juicing jobs! Powerful, easy to clean, and great looking, you will want to keep this juicer on your kitchen counter at all times. Highly recommended juicer! Pulp Setting Effectiveness With a low (6.500 rpm) and a high (12,000 rpm) speed, you can choose the juicing power based on the food you are using, and based on the kind of fruit or vegetable you are juicing, you will get a lot of juice out of each food. This juicer is probably one of the most stable juicers even when using tougher vegetables or fruits, it never moves from your counter or rotates. Ease of Cleaning This juicer is fairly easy to clean, and the different cleanable parts are easily removable and you can either stick them in the dishwasher or wash them by hand, because I tend to do This juicer makes it easy to switch from one type of vegetable to another with a quick rinse in between jobs. It also includes a great cleaning brush which has come in very handy.

Nicely constructed, easy to clean but a little monstrous for our counter space. Not too noisey and does a good job extracting juice from larger fruits and vegetables, but it doesn't work well with strawberries or blue berries.

I have had a few juicers in the past that did a terrible job and were difficult to clean. I love using this juicer. It truly gets a majority of the juice out of the fruits and veggies so I don't feel like i'm wasting money. Clean up is so easy. I would say it doesn't take me more than 10 mins to dissasemble and clean this before putting it away. I cannot leave this on my countertop and don't think i would because it is rather large and takes up quite a bit of space when i do bring it out. Overall I would buy this juicer again in the future.

We couldn't believe how easy this is to use. The speed and power that we can juice carrots, beets, and apples in. We were also pleased with how quick & easy it is the clean-up is. The carafe issue has been our own fault. We've gotten caught up in the speed of juicing that we forgot to check it and it over flowed some. We learned quickly, and have not done that again. Can only blame the operators, and not the machine. We are totally happy with it and use it every day! Best machine we have ever used and highly recommend it!

We bought this juicer for a variety of vegetable juices. Quick and easy to assemble. Two speeds which allows everything from parsley and dandelions to spinach, carrots, celery and apples to be efficiently juiced, The fit, form and finish appears excellent and it worked well. Much better quality than I expected. I highly recommend it.

I'm sure there are better juicers but for the price this one is great. No pulp gets through into the juice and it is quick. Clean-up is fairly easy if you do it immediately. I imagine if the residues dry on the parts it would be difficult. The screen requires a bit more cleaning with the brush than I'd prefer to do, but the small gauge screening is what makes the juice.

I juice everyday and was using the Jack Lalane juicer, my Sister in law also juices and wanted me to see the Breville she bought and we used it, long story short, I that night, sold my Jack Lalane juicer on craigslist for $20.00, went to Best Buy and bought this...THAT NIGHT! This IS the juicer to have, so fast and easier cleanup than other juicers, no special tools and stuff. And it produces better juice, more juice, spend the extra $50 than you would for the Jack Llane and be VERY happy!

Every use of this juicer makes me glad I purchased it. The brush included and the way it breaks down makes it incredibly easy to clean. It juices anything I throw at it, and it works in an instant. Juicing can be a lot of work, but this takes the long clean up process out of the equation. Very convenient, high quality, and high performing juicer. I will not buy a different brand after owning this one.

There are cheaper units out there. Not sure if they get the job done or last more than a few weeks... But this unit is worth the money. It is quality made. Powerful. Easy to assemble/disassemble and clean. Safe to use. Spending less is not worth the hassle of making a trip back to the store to return a cheap unit. Or worse having to spend an equal amount on another "cheap juicer".

We have been using this juicer for one week so it’s hard to say what the long run will be but it’s powerful. It’s easy to clean. It’s easy to assemble and disassemble. It was recommended to us by our friends who had really done their research and it was a reasonably priced one so we went with it. No complaints.

considering the price of some Juicers, this is perfect.. not to pricey and it does a fairly good job. I have learned that some things like carrot pulp will get plugged in the area where waste goes into bucket. I have discovered that when your doing if when doing carrots you mix in celery, cucumbers or something else that has more water, it is less apt to get clogged. Other than that mine has worked fine and I use it two times a day. It is easy to take apart and clean which is another plus for me.

The Breville Fountain Plus Juicer is a great buy. Easy to operate and clean up only takes a short time with the strainer being the longest to clean. Using a produce bag in the pulp container makes clean up go so very fast with no real mess to clean. I did not find the pulp to be all that dry but have not tried sending in thru a second time like some do. Well worth the money and the juices so far have been wonderful. Be careful how you add items as it can throw them out the top and into the the pulp container without really juicing them. Vary what you put in the top and use the plunger to push items down so not to toss out.

This is my very 1st Juicer...and although its not the least expensive juicer or entry level Breville juicer, it was well worth the money! This juicer yields LOTS of juice! It's powerful but quiet for how much power it has, and it's super smooth! I love it!!!

Boyfriend wanted to start juicing and bought a $45 name brand. After a week we were frustrated so i went out and bought this Breville. Wow! What a difference. Quality of parts is worth the $. It has two power settings and when the motor runs its a smooth roar. In comparison to the other one we had which just hurt my ears to have on let alone when it was grinding. Also really like the suction pads under it as it grips and stays put on the counter. As first time juicers this really makes it easy to do. Really happy with the purchase.

I wish I had known about "juicing" and this juicer while I was in the Army. Juicing would have been a great addition to my morning physical training routine. It's all good, though. No worries. I did wait a few days after the juicer arrived before using it because it was so beautiful. I was too scared to get it dirty. I finally gave in and began to make a juice with celery, cucumbers, parsley, ginger, green apples, kale, arugula, and spinach. It's was really good. I am now juicing celery every morning for the past week and am seeing great results and reaping the benefits of juicing. I am pleased with the finished product, clean up is a breeze as I do have a busy, sometimes unpredictable work life. I would highly recommend this juicer. I can't wait to make other juice recipes.

This juicer has allowed me to lose 5 pounds my first week of dieting which means replacing one meal with juice from fruits and vegies. It does an excellent job getting all of the juice out of the produce. It is easier to clean than my old juicer but there is a filter screen that has to be cleaned right away or the dried debris gets harder to clean. It comes with a cleaning brush. The blades are hidden and do not need to be cleaned other than to quickly rinse off. Juicing is a good way to get your vegies if you are too lazy to eat them whole or you don't have time for other types of preparation. Also, when fruits and vegies become a bit old and would otherwise be tossed out, they can be juiced and the juice tastes fine, so you save money by juicing old vegies and fruits as long as they have not molded, yet.

I use this product most everyday as a novice in juicing. Simple to use and extracts juice fairly well for the price. A bit of a hassle to clean up, but most juicers are. Overall quality product.

I read multiple reviews on many products from Consumer Reports to Amazon. Seems you can't please everyone. I replaced a juicer from 14 years ago that was still working well but too much of a nightmare to clean and use. This one has brought me into modern day world. Very easy to clean, allows you to use large size veggies and fruits, and the finished product is great. Great unit for a reasonable price. On sale often, pick your time.
