What's great about it: Easy to use, durable
This juicer has been excellent. It takes just a few seconds to juice a full apple, carrots, etc. etc. you name it! If you were to eat all the veggies and fruits you should consume, it would be a full time job. Juicing them gives you the most bang for your buck for a healthier lifestyle. We've been using daily for over a month. Cleaning up is not too bad. You can put most of the parts in the dishwasher. Make sure to scrub the mesh thoroughly with the brush (the sooner, the easier) so that it doesn't get moldy. Buy this and get juicing!

What's great about it: Plenty of power and large chute
I have owned juicers for the last 10 years and this is my second one after owning a juice lady brand. This Breville has a large enough "chute" where you do not have to slice anything that is large like apples. My juice lady I had to quarter larger fruit but not this Breville. I also line the pulp container with a throw away plastic grocery bag so cleanup is a breeze. The motor is strong enough where you can feed this juicer large items and it has plenty of power to juice. Happy with this purchase. I have owned this model for around a year and juice regularly with this machine.

What's great about it: Easy to clean, dry pulp, efficient use of power.
What's not so great: The cost is high, but honestly not exorbitant.
This was my third juicer. The first, a terrible Hamilton Beach product (Not surprised based on the price), the second was a Cuisinart which worked very well but didn't have the horse power to do beats and other harder fruits/veg. Then there was this bad boy. Easy to use, easier to clean, and with enough power to juice the chrome off of a trailer hitch! (Not literally, I can't take responsibility for damaged trailer hitches and or juicers). It's very efficient and the pulp tends to be very dry. Great juicer, and I highly recommend Breville juicers, specifically this one.

It's pricey but totally worth it in the end.
Super simple to assemble, even easier to disassemble. Cleaning is a cinch as long as you rinse/soak everything not long after you make your juice. Comes with a scrub to clean to clean the fine mesh and it works pretty great. Pulp does build up a bit so if you're juicing quite a bit in one shot, I would suggest taking a quick break to clear it our. The extra pulp is usually pretty dry or at least lacks a lot of moisture so you know you're getting the max amount of juice from your fruits/veggies. There are 2 speeds (low/high) and it's really just a matter of remembering to switch gears depending on if you are juicing soft/hard produce.
It's a nice design, simple to use & clean, and incredibly powerful. Just buy it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy to set up, easy to use, easy clean up
What's not so great: A little pricey
I bought this online about a month ago and am extremely pleased with my purchase. I have used this juicer at least 10 times in the last month and it works perfectly. I've stuck carrots, apples, beets, kale, spinich, ginger root, sweet potatoes, and oranges in here and it handles it all perfectly. There is no "spraying splash" from the juicer (something I've read on other reviews) and I love that I can stick whole apples and whole beets in the chute and the juicer has no problem handling them. For clean up, just dump out the pulp bin into the trash and rinse it out in the sink. All other parts are easy clean up: just make sure to rinse in hot water right after juicing and they clean off easy. You do have to scrub the filter a bit with the special brush that comes with the juicer, but it is not time consuming at all. I usually scrub it under a stream of hot water, it takes no longer than 1 minute to clean the filter, no longer than 5 minutes overall clean up. I love this juicer!

What's great about it: It's a stainless steel Breville!
What's not so great: price tag
I was shocked by the 2 star review. If you were not able to clean this machine with ease or had mold growing on your filter... I believe that was your lack of care for the machine. I Love my Breville Elite. It is a very powerful machine and I could not imagine my kitchen without Breville! This juicer is more for avid juicers and if you still want a high quality juicer without the large price tag, they make a lesser model for less money. This machine is very easy to clean. Only a few pieces and I toss them all on the top rack of my dishwasher. I do scrub my blade and screen with the included brush and I have never had an issue. not to mention this machine is so stunning! I have had to many horrible plastic juicers to know that this is the BEST juicer you can buy!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: It's quieter than I thought it would be. Excellent quality and won't stain.
What's not so great: Even better results than I expected!
Compared to other juicers, this is easier to clean. The stainless steel will not stain and the quality of the machine is excellent. Cleaned up by mostly rinsing but you need a small brush for the chopper screen. Make sure you have a good amount of produce for the effort. Also the discarded material is dry which means it does a great job. It is like the BMW of juicers. There are many recipes on the internet. We are challenged to try combinations of many different fruits & vegetables for a variety of experiences.

What's great about it: It makes juice.
What's not so great: Expensive. Makes a mess. Filter difficult to clean. A lot of work for a little juice.
I'm new to juicing so I was surprised to learn you DO have to peel citrus fruits. Duh..! ANd who knew veggie juice would be so disgusting? But, it is healthy so give it a try.
But keep in mind, by the time you wash, prepare and juice your fruits and veggies you have a sticky mess to clean up. THe filter is difficult to clean. It comes with its own scrub brush. After first use, I scrubed the filter with brush and put it in the dishwaher. lt had 'fur' growing on the filter when I went to use it the second time. So it is very important and very diffult to clean. It is going back for something less expensive.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
