Hi Adam S. The Breville 800JEXL Elite is not a masticating juicer. I have owned this model of centrifugal juicer for over 2 years. While I am more than satisfied with the quality of juice it produces and with its performance, I have recently decided to change to a masticating juicer. The Breville, and most centrifugal juicers, juice your veggies and fruits at very high RPMs (1500), which I have read destroys many of the valuable enzymes in fruits and veggies. The masticating juicers, on the other hand, juices your fruits and veggies at 80 RPMs. This lower RPM supposedly avoids "oxidizing" the juice of your fruits and veggies, unlike the centrifugal type of juicer, thus preserving the integrity of those valuable enzymes/nutrients. I don't know if this is true, as there is so much hype out there on the Internet. But it sounds good to me, and right now I can afford to buy another juicer. After spending a lot of time researching masticating juicers, I am leaning toward the Omega J8006. It has a dual auger, which I have read is the best method to juice with a masticating juicer. Reviews for the Omega J8006 are great, and I can live with the cons. (Cons mostly consist of having to cut down in size your veggies before juicing. I don't have a problem spending a little extra time with cutting up the veggies before putting them down the shute. It doesn't seem like much of con to me.) Good luck with your research in selecting a juicer. If this will be your first, you're in for a positive change in your health, regardless of your selection (centrifugal vs. masticating). Juicing is great!

This one is not. I think the only Breville juicer that is masticating is the Juice Fountain BJS600XL.

i'm not sure i really understand the difference between the two. mine spins and shoots juice out the right side and the left side catches all the "waste". there is a low and high speed (not sure of the exact RMS's between speeds) and a screened basket with a blade at the bottom that allows the juice to come out. i've never had a problem with my machine and i love it. i hope this helps.jb

I was wondering the exact same thing. Does anyone know if any breville juicers can juice wheatgrass? You cant juice wheatgrass the same way that you juice other fruits and vegetables... correct?

I believe made in S Korea, I need to double check when I go home. This is a wonderful machine by the way!!! Masticating juicer, you can use the excess to feed plants or animals:)

I truly would recommend getting a juicer with an external pulp collector. this one has to be cleaned out too much. as far as Mea I tomatoes don't know. but kiwi and soft stuff splatter in plus collection area. Not much juice produced.

No offence intended but this is one of the weirdest questions I've ever seen. Have you ever seen an average juicer? lol. Picture a blender with lots of attachments. Then, you need to take it all apart and clean it. It's doable, but cumbersome. I'd rather do my juice at home, put it in Mason jars and drink it within three hours. Just my opinion.

I was excited when I purchased my Omega BMJ330 before Christmas in 2014.......then the motor burned out this week. Thank goodness I still have my nutri bullet for smoothies. Before this juicer I had had a Juiceman Jr. Juicer for 10 years using it quite often. The motor had been grinding and that's the reason for my new purchase. Won't be buying another BMJ330 and don't know if I'll ever buy and Omega again. Loved the stainless steel though. It juiced pretty good for a couple months. If I were you I would keep looking or don't spend alot for one. I bought mine from Amazon for 65.00. which was a deal.....not again.

well, to start with, my Acme isn't your Acme!! My mother's machine was purchased in 1965 by the company called "Acme", your's is now owned by Waring, I believe; I don't sell juicers, but that's what I've heard!! If the pulp is wet then your blade needs to be sharpened OR you basket isn't spinning as fast as it needs to (it uses centrifugal force to take the shred and move the juice from the shred). This could be the nut not fully twisting down, or your holes in your basket could be clogging the juice from going out into the pour spout holder under the basket and not allow it to come out. I personally now own an auger Juicer by Samson (but i would suggest their competition Champion or another brand, as this one after 3 years is starting to have 'issues"), which is NOT a spinning juicer, but a cork screw type that grinds the fruit/veggies/meat/grain and releases the juice away from the fiber which is then dumped out.

Kuvings NJE-3580U Masticating juicer is less expensive. Other functing wise, i have never used Omega juicer. I encourge you to do more research on the comparison of Kuvings and Omega juicer.

We recommend you contact Omega directly on this question as it appears there is conflicting information being shared. as we understand it (as learned directly from Omega), this juicer is not available in the US for sale at this time and there are no plans to bring it into the US.

this is a masticating juicer, it keeps your juice fresher because it grinds the juice out very good machine to have in your house.

Vitamix is a great blender which mixes all of the pulp and juice (and whatever else you want in a smoothie), a masticating juicer is the best for separating fibers from the juice. Many health benefits can be found for this separation of juice, but fiber is healthy for other reasons. Some people cook the fibers in muffins, etc. after juicing. From personal experience, a Ninja is just good for blending your money into total waste. Don't bother.

After researching a lot online, the Omega was the winner to me in what I discovered in reviews & videos concerning juicing greens and wheatgrass. That's what I was looking for in a juicer. I have juiced leafy greens with hard vegetables & hard fruits and it does very well, very, very minimal foam. I have not juiced wheatgrass yet.

Hello...you have posed a good question, however, I was so excited to order it I did not think about replacement parts. Sorry for my late reply, but I have been looking for the booklet that came with it which should give me information you need. I will keep looking and get back to you if I find it. I LUV the juicer...it is quiet and very efficient. As approved by my nutritionist, the low speed prevents heat that kills the vitamins.

Since it is a rotary machine, it juices with speed. I use all of those ingredients, but it does take a lot of kale or other leafy greens to make enough. I cram everything that fits through my juicer and it grinds through it with speed and ease. Clean up is a breeze. From my research, the masticating ones are more efficient, but slower and more parts to clean. Neither were acceptable to me, so chose this one and am very happy.

Not terribly bad. I have an Acme juicer (heavy duty) http://www.amazon.com/6001-Juicerator-550-Watt-Extractor-Stainless/dp/B0028RXDFM/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1400894810&sr=1-1&keywords=acme+juicer on my farm and it leaves REALLY dry pulp....BUT....it's more of a hassle to clean. It's an okay juicer. You may also want to check out the Champion juicer http://www.amazon.com/Heavy-Duty-Commercial-Juicer-in-Black/dp/B000E4C53M which has the ability to run frozen fruit through it for sorbet-like frozen goodies. Heavy duty! At the price point the Breville XL is a decent juicer that is well made, sturdy, and does the job. I am a value shopper so I chose the version with the stainless juicing piece as well as the stainless spigot. I don't trust plastic much in the long run....... The Breville is a nice machine, well designed, heavy grade stainless and produces a good juice with some moisture left in the pulp. Good luck!

Hi Eleanor D. I love my Waring juicer. The pulp stays inside, and it's really dry!!! No pulp in the juice though. :)

I've traveled the World with Mine. Haven't Found AnyThing You Can't Juice as Long As You Can Cut The Food Into Smaller Pieces.
