As soon as you take it out of the box, you can instantly tell that this is a quality kitchen appliance. The Breville Juice Fountain Elite’s body is made from 100 percent die-cast titanium and aluminum. It’s durable, sturdy, and built for years of frequent use. Inside, it has a stainless steel micro-mesh filter and a heavy-duty industrial-strength titanium plated cutting disc. You should be aware, however, that this means that the juicer is heavier than most other juicers of its type. The Breville Juice Fountain weighs about fifteen pounds.
Like all of the juicers in the Breville juice Fountain line, the Breville Juice Fountain Elite has Breville’s patented circular three-inch feed-tube. The tube is large and perfectly round, which means that you can place more veggies and fruits at a time. This will substantially shorten your prep time. No need to spend ages chopping up fruit or vegetables just to make juice. The feed tube is great for when you’re a bit strapped for time. This juicer is extremely convenient to use, and because of this you may find yourself using it more often than you did your old juicer.
The feed tube and its opening are placed directly above the filter and cutting mechanism, which helps the juicer to remain balanced and eliminate wobbling and vibration even if the juicer is juicing at high speed. The placement of the feed tube and its opening at the center also ensures that the juicer efficiently extracts juice, which simply means more juice and very dry pulp from your chosen fruit or vegetables.
These features were added to make juicing faster and more convenient, but none of these features would work as well as they do if the juicer didn’t have a very powerful motor, which the Breville Elite definitely does. The Breville Juice Fountain Elite boasts a high speed 1000 watt motor which spins at a mind-boggling 6,500 RPMs on low speed, and 13,000 RPMs on high. It also has electronic smart chip technology which increases cutting disc power automatically whenever necessary. When juicing softer fruits and leafy vegetables, the low speed setting is the best one to use. Use the high speed to easily and quickly juice harder fruits and vegetables.
The Juice Fountain Elite only has 4 removable parts, all of which are dishwasher safe. These parts can be removed easily and re-attached. There’s no danger of the parts coming loose with frequent use, as the parts continue to fit snugly over time and repeated uses. Even the juicer’s sleek design with its rounded corners are designed to make clean up easy and hassle-free, and to prevent food contamination. The juicer’s body design also prevents food build-up, which is important in the continued exceptional performance of the juicer.
