I use the juicer just to make juices. (Veggies and Fruits) I love this juicer because of its speed and power. Truly the best purchase I've made in a long time! Thank You...
from Lake Oswego, OR on 7/22/2008
First of all the instructions read to turn it on prior to adding items.... WRONG... then all the juice flies all over the room. Terrible performance.... all the fruit/vegetable contents end up in the conatiner and not in the dispenser.

Finally, a way to eat healthy!

The motor is powerful and not terribly noisy. Other reviews mentioned leaking which I didn't find to be true. The feeder tube is very large and it works quickly, producing a lot of juice. There is quite a bit of pulp remaining that seems to be a waste of fiber. The machine is also a bit larger than I expected so harder to store. Overall we are very happy with the juicer. I don't think we would have the same results with any other model or brand.

I use this juicer for fruits only. Its increadible the quantity of juice it makes. The pulp is left just a little yet. It's relatively quiet and very easy to clean (simply use the dishwasher). The scrub/spatula included is just the right tool to remove the pulp from the container.
The ads for this juicer indicates that one can even put pineapple with the rind, suggesting that one could just run the juicer without peeling the fruits. However, that is not the case. Oranges, for example, needed to be peeled before otherwise the juice will be bitter (just like if you eat an orange peel). That adds on the preparation work.

I use it for juice. I have never owned a juicer before this one but am impressed none the less. Easy to clean and maintain. A little messy at first but not after you get your system down. Instructions recommend you only put pieces on the upper rack of dishwasher so sometimes you need to adjust for that or use upper rack only setting and wash by itself.

The Breville/Juice Fountain Compact - BRVBJE200XL has a great look. Unfortunately, looks don't help the performance. The first batch of product you put down the chute is fine, but when you open the chute to put the next batch, the spinning action throws juice up thru the chute and EVERYWHERE. Turning the juicer on and off for every batch is a pain. There are many other brands that do a good job without bathing you in juice to do it.

I used this juicer for a 7 day juice fast, juicing things like apples, oranges, carrots, celery, beets, radishes, herbs, watermelon, pineapple, tomatoes, and lettuce. This juicer did a fantastic job with everything. It juices fast, and the leftover pulp is quite dry. Clean-up was very easy in the sink. I also washed the parts in the top of the dishwasher now and then. The included brush did a great job on the mesh screen. I think this juicer is an excellent buy!
from Fresno CA on 4/22/2008
Bought cheaper models that were just messy and disappointing. I'm glad the last one finally died so we could step up to this one. Much more heavy duty serice. It's faster, no mess, easier to clean and assemble.
from Ontario, California on 4/22/2008
Yes, it makes juice but it's really loud especially when the motor is slowing down.
Juice and pulp bits leak into the joint between the bonded dark colored lower part and clear plastic upper portion where the spout is and stays there forming a thin ring of unreachable gunk embedded inside the clear plastic. there is no way I can reach to clean it out. The only thing I can do is microwave it for 3 minutes until the trapped liquid boils over and the pulp bits turn black. Then I know it's safe to use.
Thin slabs of unjuiced veggies end up with the pulp because of the clearance between the blades and the top. Once a veggie falls sideways and reaches about 1/8th of an inch thick it is thrown to the pulp container unjuiced.
After one juicing, I re-juiced the pulp and got about 10% more juice out of it.
This is my first juicer so I really don't know if this is normal. I know next time I'll spend a little more money and buy something better and quieter then this model.

from Orlando, Florida on 4/19/2008
I learned the first time I used this product, that you should put all your berries in at the same time. The machine has a tendency to spit back at you through the tube. The juice it produced was wonderful. I did several different kinds of berries, apples slices and some lime. It was very tasty. You could dribble on top of ice cream as a topping. I would definitely tell everyone to buy this product. The price is GREAT!!
from Orange, CA on 4/2/2008
I was pleasantly surprised by this compact juicer and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a compact model. Doesn't take up a lot of space and works well without any waste or residue. Because it's compact, it must be emptied frequently but it's easily to use, clean and works great.
from Redington Shores, FL on 4/2/2008
10 minutes tops from start, set-up, etc. to clean-up! Some of the best money I ever spent!!!!
from Erie, PA on 4/2/2008
[...] I am very pleased with the ease of operation and more importantly, the ease of clean up. I have experienced minor leakage which I believe has more to do with the fruits/veges combinations I am using and my technique (I'm still learning!); sometimes there is no leakage at all. The motor housing is sealed and a quick wipe with a cloth is all that is needed to clean leakage. I think, for the money, this is an excellent juicer.

I am using the Juice Fountain Compact for making vegetable juices as well as fruit combinations. Wow - it really produces a lot of juice and leaves remarkably dry pulp! I have already recommended this product to friends.
from Short Hills, nj on 3/31/2008
As I get older, I'm getting better. Drinking fresh juice without preservatives and chemicals have made a significant improvement in my appearance.
This juicer is such a great bargain for the price. Best of all, it is dishwasher safe and has few parts to clean. Additionally, it is not overly large and will fit under the counter nicely. It occasionally leaks but I believe it is due to an abundance of juice being produced from certain fruits/veg...it doesn't leak all the time. No concern for leaking into motor or causing any problems, only a little extra clean-up. Great buy!
from Charlotte N.C. on 2/20/2008
The product is very easy to ensemble and easy to clean. I like the stiff brush very much. It removes all the pulp from the strainer. I particularly like the size. Not big and bulky. I have used it only one time to try it out and I like it very much
from NYC on 2/19/2008
I love everything about the juicer except 2 things: having to peel citrus fruits and some juice leaks out and I am concerned it can get inside parts that should not be wet. Other than that, it's great; fast, lots of juice, easy clean up and mostly quiet.
from Glen Carbon, IL on 2/17/2008
We need to have the Plastic juicer cover - replaced. When the locking arm went over the groves, 1 side broke off (groove).
from Scottsdale, AZ on 2/13/2008
This juicer is so user-friendly. The clean-up was unbelievably fast and easy. Making juice was quick and quiet. Now this is a quality juicer!!
from Pittsburgh, Pa on 2/13/2008
I use it daily for quick digestion of all my fruits and veggies.
from Edgewood, MD on 2/13/2008
Very powerful! I have already recommended this to friends and family. It has a great stiff cleaning brush and I love the fact that I can drop a whole apple in the feeder without cutting it up. It spits out the seeds too. My 8 year old loves to juice too.
It's a bit too big to store on my counter top since I have a small kitchen with little counter space. Good product! Thanks.
from Delran,NJ on 1/29/2008
Easy to use and surprisingly easy to clean.
from Perrysburg, OH on 1/28/2008
Excellent juicer for a small family.
from Fairfield, Iowa on 1/28/2008
Makes good juice if you go slowly. If you press hard on the thing being juiced it produces only a little juice and large chunks will go through unjuiced.
from San Francisco, CA on 1/24/2008
The Breville juicer is very convenient to use. The most difficult part is keeping up with the supply of fruits and veggies needed to make enough healthy drinks to satisfy the family.
from Houston, TX on 1/24/2008
Drink fresh juice any time.
from New jersey on 12/31/2007
This juicer is everything I wanted. Every part that can be removed goes right in the dishwasher for easy cleaning. Also there are not a million parts...it comes with a nice brush to remove the pulp easily.
It seems very well made and so simple. No messy work. Just drop in fruit and drink up!!
I have already been recomending this juicer to everyone I know.
