Juicers: Reviews

The elegant Breville Juice Fountain Elite is the big winner in the two best juicer reviews we found. The Fountain Elite's advantages are its 1000-watt motor and extra wide, three-inch feeder tube, which means users can… skip chopping food into smaller pieces. Reviews say the Juice Fountain Elite works quickly, and the juice is smooth and consistent. The pulp bin is large, and the motor has two speeds, so it can handle both soft fruits and hard vegetables. With dishwasher-safe parts, the Fountain Elite is easy to clean. This juicer comes with a one-year warranty (three years on the motor).

Like the more expensive Fountain Elite, the Compact has a three-inch-wide chute, which allows you to juice many fruits whole. The Juice Fountain Compact differs from the Fountain Elite in that it has a less powerful… motor, plastic housing and a smaller footprint, but it produces nearly as much juice as its more expensive sibling, say owners. The Fountain Compact has just one speed, but the build quality is very good and parts are dishwasher-safe. It's also said to be a little quieter than the Fountain Elite.

If you merely want to juice citrus fruits, reviews say that the Black & Decker citrus juicer (essentially an electric reamer) is a great choice. This model has adjustable pulp control, a one-liter pitcher, and small and… large cones for everything from lemons to grapefruits. Operation and pouring are easy and mess-free. The CitrusMate Plus can't juice anything other than citrus, so you'll need a juice extractor if you want to juice vegetables or other fruits.

Unlike most juicers, the Acme Supreme doesn't automatically eject the fibrous leftover pulp, which means that this machine can squeeze 20 percent to 35 percent more juice than ejection models like the Breville Juice… Fountain juicers. Experts say this can be a money-saver if you make a lot of juice. Reviews say that the Acme juicer is sturdy and built to last. It uses paper filters, which make for clearer juice, but must be replaced regularly.

Juicing fibrous vegetables and wheatgrass is a challenge for most juicers. The stainless-steel Omega 8005 is a single-auger, masticating juice extractor. It crushes produce to a pulp before squeezing out the juice, which… is great for juicing leafy greens. In addition to juice, it can make pasta, baby food and nut butters -- tasks that centrifugal juicers can't do. It's also quiet, but juicing takes longer than with centrifugal models like the Breville Fountain juicers.
