breville-je900-juicefountainjuicer.jpgDo you hate to waste lots of time preparing your fruits for juicing and the hassle it takes to clean those juicers afterward?

If that’s your problem, we may have a solution (although not a perfect one) for you.

The Breville JE900 Juice Fountain Professional Juice Extractor is an unbelievably fast and powerful machine that will set to awe those who are new to juicing.

It’s 600 Watt motor is powerful enough to accept whole fruits and it can crunch through hard apple cores, pineapples and even those hard broccolli stalks. This powerhouse will simply saves you plenty of time compared to most juicers in the market. In fact, the larger the fruit going in, the better will it do it’s job.

IT’S BUILT:
After you unpack the box, assembling the unit is a snap. The juicer’s exterior is made of high grade plastic with well thought of color. Because of it’s color, the juicer will not be easily stained. If you juice everyday, you’ll know that this is a blessing.

When you set it up on your tabletop, you’ll see right away that the Breville JE900 juicer is solidly built and sturdy.

PERFORMANCE:
The Breville JE900 features an extra wide feed tube so that you could put your fruits or vegetable without chopping them first. But that doesn’t mean you can be super lazy though! Bigger apples may need to be cut into two and citrus fruits need to be peeled first (as usual).

Unfortunately, due to it’s very powerful motor, you should not bother juicing small fruits like grapes. It simply mash it to pieces without extracting much juices. At the same time, you’d also see that this juicer will leave some juices in some juicy fruits like kiwi or oranges.

To get more juices, use bigger pieces and push down very slowly.

CLEANING UP:
Well, this is one of the most important part. No one wants to own a super duper juicer that takes 30 minutes to clean.

With this Breville JE900, cleaning is easier compared to most juicer in the market. This is because the top is all curves and no corners. There’s almost no place for the pulp to hide.

To clean the blade and stainless steel filter, just use the stiff plastic brush that comes with the juicer.

Almost all of the components are dishwasher safe, but you don’t have one, just rinse and wash in the sink. It’ll take less than 5 minutes to clean it by hand. Thus, you won’t have a dirty juicer to greet you when you’re back from the office.

We’re glad that the juicer’s pulp container is designed to fit a standard plastic grocery bag. That should make it easy for you to juice a large amount of fruits without too much time spend on cleaning up the pulp catcher.

With that feature, it’s a party ready juicer.

NOISE LEVEL:
With power comes great noise. Well, it’s something you’d have to expect with a small powerful equipment. The Breville JE900 is no exception, with the sound as loud as a vacuum cleaner or a blender.

That’s the price you have to pay for something that works incredibly fast. Just make sure you don’t prepare your juice while the baby is sleeping.

For those optimists out there, the juicer can also double as a “morning alarm” for your husband or wife.

TIPS:

  • To juice thin greens, wrap them in lettuce for better result.
  • If you hate the froth/foam, use the easy slide froth separator.
  • Use the bonus pitcher for an air-tight lid to store left over juice in your fridge.

PLUSES:

  • Very fast and will save you plenty of time.
