Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Review

Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain

Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain


This is one of the best juicers available on the market today. I’ve read  a lot about juicers and I’ve read a lot of reviews, and this is an exceptional juicer. It’s not overpriced and it’s highly recommended by purchasers.  You can usually pick up a used one or remanufactured one at a good discount too. The Breville 800 JEXL juicer is one of the highest rated with 1,580 customer reviews and a solid 4.5 star rating. You can view this juicer and more in my Amazon Associate Store or go directly to Amazon —> Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite 1000-Watt Juice Extractor


Product Description


The Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite with 1000 watts is super efficient. This model has an Italian made electronic motor that increases power under yield to maintain filter revolutions. It has two speeds for soft and hard fruits and a three inch feed tube which minimizes preparation and feeding time. Beautifully designed stainless die cast steel housing and motor body makes it a work of art on the countertop. While juicing, you may notice juice escaping between the plastic juicer cover and the stainless steel filter bowl surround. Try pushing the Food Pusher down more slowly and using the low speed. When large quantities of fruits and vegetables, especially those with high water content such tomatoes and watermelon, are fed into the Feed Chute at a rapid rate, the stainless steel filter basket coverts these into juice so quickly that the force may cause leaking.


If you have this juicer, what are your thoughts on it?

5This juicer is perfect if you’re like me………………

By Toast

We want to juice quickly and get on with our day.


I’m not a vegan, i’m not a juicing purist, or is interested in the centrifugal vs masticating debate. I just want to increase my health by drinking one big glass of fresh juice and get on with my life.


I’ve owned other juicers, but this one is a monster. At high speed, it’s loud no doubt, but it’s power is without equal. I make a monster glass of juice (close to a quart) with 7 fruits and vegetables. It rips through all of them as if it were a joke. All the vegetables take about a minute, then i’m done.


Now cleaning does take much longer than juicing, but the machine is made so well, that it’s incredibly easy. It also works out perfect for me, because while i’m slowly consuming my juice, I wash out the parts by hand. You may think this machine is a lot of money, but if you want to have a juicer with real speed and a strong motor, this is the way to go. Not only that, but it’s very attractive to look at as well. This is money well spent in my opinion, and i’m glad I took the advice of other customers on this website.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Rebecca Review, May 20, 2009



By Rebecca of Amazon



In the past few months I’ve read quite a few books on juicing. “The Big Book of Juices” is one of the most creative books I’ve seen so far. The fruit and vegetable blends are especially delicious. Who would have thought that grapefruit would go so well with carrots and celery. I’ve also never seen anyone blend broccoli with pears. Yet these all seem to work well. I especially enjoyed making the juice with passionfruit, orange juice and seltzer.


While you need a juicer for most of the recipes there are also some recipes for your blender. If you are feeling adventurous you might enjoy making a spicy drink made from chai tea, peaches, vanilla and yogurt. Most of the smoothie recipes use yogurt. The only thing you have to do first is to juice some of the fruit before you add it to the blender with the yogurt. Other fruits like mango and papaya are better just added to the blender as they don’t juice as well. Specific instructions are not given on each recipe so you have to read the instructions at the start of the book and at the start of each chapter. Instead of instructions the author just gives a few sentences to inspire you to make the drink. This works well for individuals who have already been juicing for a few months but is not as helpful for someone new to juicing. From my own experience I learned to peel most fruits, especially citrus fruits. You will also want to peel mangoes, pineapple and papaya.


The last section in the book contains some recipes using sparkling mineral water. There are also some recipes for teas made with fresh herbs. There is an interesting tea made with licorice and mint. If you are looking for something to calm you at the end of the day there is a tea made with lemongrass, cardamom, orange zest, chamomile and mint. Unlike the other recipes, instructions are given for most of the recipes in the “Thirst Quenchers” section.


The recipes using lime sorbet are perfect for the summer if you don’t mind a little sugar with your fruit drinks. For the most part all the drinks are sweetened with the natural fruit juice combinations. Quite a few of the drinks are flavored with ginger. You can always add a packet of stevia which is a natural sweetener.


This is a book you will use day after day! The pictures of the juices are beautiful and you might be intrigued by all the different shaped glasses the author found to display the juices in. If you have been juicing at least a few months then you will love this book.

This is the first time that I will be “juicing” more than just the occassional weekend basic juice. This book offers not only many recipes but also gives the reader information on the health benefits of each fruit/vegetable. In addition, it has a tarted guide in the back of the book with different planned weeks like: Basic intro week, immune power week, detox week etc. IT has a nutrition chart and a “juices for ailments” section that gies you ideas on which juices to take for each ailment. Overall a great adition to a novice juicer!


5.0 out of 5 stars Great juicing reference guide, December 8, 2012



By J. Andersen



This is a very easy to use book on juicing. It gives you a lot of great recipes on juicing, along with the health benefits for each one. It grades each recipe on 4 levels: immunity, detox, energy and skin benefits. So you can focus on the recipes that give you the benefits you are specifically looking for. If you are new to juicing, the recipes give you a head start. Once you try out a few, you can begin to design your own recipes. Good reference, I use it every day!

This is a very easy to use book on juicing. It gives you a lot of great recipes on juicing, along with the health benefits for each one. It grades each recipe on 4 levels: immunity, detox, energy and skin benefits. So you can focus on the recipes that give you the benefits you are specifically looking for. If you are new to juicing, the recipes give you a head start. Once you try out a few, you can begin to design your own recipes. Good reference, I use it every day!

Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Review

Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain

Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain


This is one of the best juicers available on the market today. I’ve read  a lot about juicers and I’ve read a lot of reviews, and this is an exceptional juicer. It’s not overpriced and it’s highly recommended by purchasers.  You can usually pick up a used one or remanufactured one at a good discount too. The Breville 800 JEXL juicer is one of the highest rated with 1,580 customer reviews and a solid 4.5 star rating. You can view this juicer and more in my Amazon Associate Store or go directly to Amazon —> Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite 1000-Watt Juice Extractor


Product Description


The Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite with 1000 watts is super efficient. This model has an Italian made electronic motor that increases power under yield to maintain filter revolutions. It has two speeds for soft and hard fruits and a three inch feed tube which minimizes preparation and feeding time. Beautifully designed stainless die cast steel housing and motor body makes it a work of art on the countertop. While juicing, you may notice juice escaping between the plastic juicer cover and the stainless steel filter bowl surround. Try pushing the Food Pusher down more slowly and using the low speed. When large quantities of fruits and vegetables, especially those with high water content such tomatoes and watermelon, are fed into the Feed Chute at a rapid rate, the stainless steel filter basket coverts these into juice so quickly that the force may cause leaking.


If you have this juicer, what are your thoughts on it?

5This juicer is perfect if you’re like me………………

By Toast

We want to juice quickly and get on with our day.


I’m not a vegan, i’m not a juicing purist, or is interested in the centrifugal vs masticating debate. I just want to increase my health by drinking one big glass of fresh juice and get on with my life.


I’ve owned other juicers, but this one is a monster. At high speed, it’s loud no doubt, but it’s power is without equal. I make a monster glass of juice (close to a quart) with 7 fruits and vegetables. It rips through all of them as if it were a joke. All the vegetables take about a minute, then i’m done.


Now cleaning does take much longer than juicing, but the machine is made so well, that it’s incredibly easy. It also works out perfect for me, because while i’m slowly consuming my juice, I wash out the parts by hand. You may think this machine is a lot of money, but if you want to have a juicer with real speed and a strong motor, this is the way to go. Not only that, but it’s very attractive to look at as well. This is money well spent in my opinion, and i’m glad I took the advice of other customers on this website.
