 Wow Juice FountainJan 25, 2011
By Vincent D.
The Breville JE98XL was our replacement to our decade old Jack Lalanne Juicer. Wow, what a difference. If I had known what I was missing I would have made the switch a long time ago. We get a lot more juice out of our fruits and veggies with the Breville than with the Jack Lalanne. I can only imagine how much money was wasted over the years by not getting everything out of our produce. The Breville also makes quick work of juicing. Before, it was a major event to create enough juice for my family. Now it takes minutes. Clean up is super easy as well. And with the fitted juice catcher, no more mess to clean up like with the Jack Lalanne.
One more comment on all those downers who gripe about high revolutions killing the enzymes. Yes it is true, but to a very small degree. And the time I save with the Breville is well worth the small faction of enzymes I may lose.
I have been juicing for over a decade and this is the best machine I have used. I am once again excited about juicing, thank you Breville!

Love our new juicerNov 21, 2010
By Dawn
For the past couple of years we had been using a juiceman jr. We liked it but it was having difficulty holding up to all the juicing we began to do most recently. We did some research and felt that the Breville would meet our needs. I was happy to learn with the bigger mouth I didn't have to do as much prep work as I had been doing with the juiceman jr. Also, the Breville has two speeds and a booklet that has great recipes and suggestions. Relatively easy to clean and put back together. We have used it everyday and is holding up to all the various fruits and vegetables we are juicing!

 JE98XL Breville Juice FountainDec 07, 2010
By Averagejoe
There are only a few reviews for this on Amazon. I purchased this machine yesterday. It was not from Amazon. I think the Juice is excellent. The machine is very easy to set up and clean.
My problem is that two fold. First I am not sure the screen will hold up for the long haul. My second is that I just juiced a Pineapple and half of it was froth. The same goes with Beets, carrots,Apples etc.... It also seems to suddenly slam the fruit into the top of the machine. The pulp does not go into the basket also. The pulp from carrots is much dryer than other fruits. The other fruit pulp can be squeezed by hand. It is like I wish I had a press as a back up to press the pulp. It is a waste in my opinion to have so much pulp left over and then all that froth.
Look I have done research on a lot of juicers and for the price this one seemed to be great. It is a centrifuge juicer and I realize they are at the bottom of the line as far as juicers go. I am going to return my juicer tomorrow and go for the big bucks. I am going to purchase a twin screw triturator and maybe with a press. I just do not like all that froth and with produce being so expensive... I am sure the savings will pay for the more expensive machine.
Recap: If you do not mind all the froth and wet pulp??? It is your choice. Cleaning and assembly is a breeze. However you will probably have to disassemble it and clean it twice before you can make a quart of juice(or more???). The pulp does not go into the pulp basket instead it gets stuck on the top of the inside before it makes it into the basket. Then there is that nasty froth again.....What can I say???? I also tried the both speeds to see if that would help. Does not help. Good luck. I hope this was helpful??? Wish I read my review before my purchase....

Compared to the Omega, this one is okJul 22, 2011
By Trevor Waldron
I bought the Breville centrifugal juicer and the Omega masticating juicer to give them both a hands on try. Both are well built, semi-easy to clean, and deliver great juice. It is best I detail their performance below.
Breville JE98XL Juice Fountain Plus 850-Watt Juicing Machine $149.99
Pros -
Fast juicing (can juice whole apples or 5 carrots at once)
Good looking
Excellent instructions with included recipes
Pouring cup contains a froth catcher
Excellent price for the quality or product
Cons-
Heats the juice slightly making it warmer
Does not juice wheatgrass or any leafy greens
Moist pulp means juice and nutrients are lost and wasted
Cleanup can be time consuming due to the amount of parts and fine mesh screen that requires full scrubbing each use
Pretty loud, comparable to a food processor
Enzymes are broken when juiced in a centrifugal juicer
Only does juice no other uses other than juicing
Looks = 4.0
Speed = 5
Juice output = 3
Juice quality = 3.5
Cleanup = 3.5
Noise = 2.5
Total score = 3.5 out of 5
Omega J8005 Nutrition Center Single-Gear Commercial Masticating Juicer
Pros -
Looks awesome
Easy to clean up
Juices wheatgrass and leafy greens well
Runs quietly
Keeps juice at original temperature (cold)
Preserves full nutrients of juice while reducing oxidation (a bad thing)
Includes attachments to make pasta, baby food, ground coffee, and more
Cons-
Slower processing due to small chute
Juice container smaller
More prone to clogging if fed too much at once, has a reverse button incase though
Instructions lack juice recipes and detail
Looks = 4.0
Speed = 3
Juice output = 4.5
Juice quality = 5
Cleanup = 5
Noise = 4
Total score = 4.25 out of 5
Overall I would highly recommend purchasing the Omega J8005 Nutrition Center if you are serious about juicing. With the ten year warranty I feel confident that this will be on the counter in my kitchen for years to come. The juice it makes is so good my 2 1/2 year old loves it! We fib and tell her it's apple juice or pineapple juice when there's greens mixed in and she loves it. I returned the Breville feeling somewhat guilty returning a product as fine as it is. If you have the money go for this Omega, if you are on a budget and greens are not a priority then I would say the Breville is an excellent choice!

Superior JuicerNov 23, 2010
By Chrissy
"Christina"
I just bought the Brenville Juice Fountain Plus JE98XL. I have owned a Jack LaLanne Juicer previously but this juicer is substantially a better machine. The dynamics of the juicer are great it has a stainless steel exterior and its parts are sturdy and MUCH EASIER TO CLEAN THAN THE ABOVE MENTIONED JUICER. One of the major complaints with juicing is that the fruit would get stuck during the process which did not happen when I used the high feature. The clean up was easy and I would feel comfortable putting all the components in the dishwasher. I was very impressed with the shape and style of all of the uncomplicated parts of this juicer. Please note that this juicer has 2 speeds which was unavailable in the last model I purchased. For the price this is an outstanding buy. Good Luck!
