Breville BJE510XL Ikon 900-Watt Variable-Speed Juice Extractor

What sets this juicer apart from others is the amazingly powerful 900 watt high-speed motor that can power through even the toughest of fruits and vegetables. The 5-speed setting allows you to go gentle on delicate juicing ingredients like spinach and wheatgrass, but when you need the power to blast through pineapple with the rind on, or whole apples, crank the speed setting up to high and this machine won’t even flinch. You’d expect a powerful machine like this to drown out all conversation around you when it’s turned on, but the noise levels are surprisingly low for a machine with this much power under the hood.

Breville also gets top marks in ease of cleanup. Any serious juicing fan knows that no matter how powerful your machine is, if you can’t easily clean it after juicing then it’s not worth any amount of money. The Breville BJE510XL Ikon 900-Watt Variable-Speed Juice Extractor gets top marks in this department. With a separate container for the pulp mounted on the side of the machine, there’s little pulp to scrape out of the body itself, which we found impressive. Breville was even thoughtful enough to provide a custom-sized brush to help clean out the filter. It’s little touches like that that make cleanup a very quick task. And, as expected, all parts (with the exception of the motor housing) are dishwasher safe - just throw them on the top rack and run them through a regular cycle. Boom - you’re done.

In a busy kitchen, counterspace is always at a premium. The intelligently designed Breville juicer has a relatively small footprint, so you can easily leave it out on your counter, ready to be used at any time. But if you would like to separate it for storage, that’s no big deal; the fact that the juicer has only three removable parts means that it comes apart and goes together in a snap, with almost zero setup time.

The Breville BJE510XL Ikon 900-Watt Variable-Speed Juice Extractor is up near the high end of retail juicing machines, but it’s well worth the cost. The powerful motor and pulp separating system, along with the stylish good looks and ease of cleanup, will make this juicer a winner in anyone’s books.
