Breville Juice Fountain Elite (800JEXL)
Important Note on Juicers
When I’m choosing a juicer, I look closely at what the juice actually touches during extraction. Juicers are used frequently and involve speed and friction, so I prefer models where the primary food-contact parts are stainless steel rather than plastic. I also try to avoid nonstick coatings, ceramic glazes, nanoparticle finishes, and treated surfaces in the juicing area whenever possible.
This model stands out because the core juicing components are stainless steel, keeping the materials straightforward and familiar.
Product Description
The Breville Juice Fountain Elite is a high-speed centrifugal juicer with a stainless steel extraction system. The filter basket and cutting disc are stainless steel, and produce is processed against metal surfaces rather than coated or glazed interiors.
It’s designed to handle whole fruits and vegetables, making it convenient for everyday juicing without a lot of prep. The overall build feels sturdy and practical for regular use.
What I Like
The stainless steel extraction system keeps the juicing area simple and uncoated.
I also appreciate that this is a long-standing design that hasn’t leaned into trendy finishes or specialty coatings. It feels functional, durable, and well-suited for someone who juices consistently.
Things to Keep in Mind
The juice jug and pulp container included with this model are separate from the extraction system. If you prefer to reduce plastic use further, transferring juice to glass right after juicing is an easy option.
Optional Glass Storage Swaps
These are simple glass options that work well for collecting or storing fresh juice:
