This is the worst Juicer ever

This is the worst Juicer ever! I have been juicing for quite a while there is no product warranty or returns on this item.  Don't buy it!  I was able to use the juicer twice then the motor died.  What a waste of money!

I've been juicing for many, many years. I still own several juicers, including a vertical, and a horizontal auger juicer, an old hand press from the 50's, that are still available on ebay for under $20.00, (this is one of my favorite).
Two hand crank single vertical augers, an old Olympic centrifugal juicer from the 60's, (has the paper filter) another favorite standby juicer...which still works, and looks great....if only they made things like this again, and a citrus juicer I only use for oranges.

Needless to say, I like having different juicers, (I guess if I could only have one, it would be the horizontal auger juicer).

This fruit press is without a doubt, the worst possible 'juicer'....one could ever own!
It not only does a horrible job of 'juicing', but it is hard to use, as one needs, or should use two hands to operate this piece of crap....however, since their is no way to secure it anywhere, one must use one hand to crank, and one to hold it.

I had to turn the handle so much to try and get juice out of the pulp, that one of the aluminum arms bent!
Still very little juice, I get more juice from the little citrus press I got of ebay for about $10.00...not sure of the price, as it was a long time ago...but it was inexpensive.

This 'juicer' is horrible, and should be banned from the market.

Product Design= 1 1/2 Stars.
I got the juicer today and the first thing I noticed that did not like was the on/off switch is in the back of it. So you have to give it a reach around to start it. The worst things about this juicer is the spout is not high enough for a normal glass. You need to use a tiny glass, which of course does not hold alot of juice. Next, there is no top/lid/roof above the spout so it spits all over the place. The big hole on top to load stuff is good if you are juicing an orange, but if you juice a carrot it smacks around like popcorn, rattles the juicer and it spits oll over the counter. It's kind of bulky and annoying to clean also. You have to unscrew the screen. I would recommend the Juiceman JR. Half the price and no quirks. The biggest joke is you can only fit a mini glass under the spout unless you put the juicer on a wooden cutting board. The spitting was obnoxious. I'am not gonna return it. But I wouldn't recommend it.

Well, wow is this a piece of junk.  I bought it about four years ago and used it a few times.  Then I let it sit on the counter for years.  I started to use it again for a week.  The juice was great but it was such a pain to take apart and clean.  I decided to use it again this week. So I just went to the store and spent $200+ on fruits and veggies to do a juice fast.  Thanks a lot- on the second day the motor went out and it is completely dead.  Whisper quiet motor because it is on its death bed when you buy it.  You get what you pay for and for a good juicer you have to pay.  Lesson learned.

This juicer wasted spinach,kale, apple, and lemon. It hardly juiced any of this . It just spit out my greens . Waist of money .

Pros:  Gets all the juice out of fruits and vegetables.  Pulp is left extremely dry.  Easy assembly and clean up.
Cons: A small amount of juice leaks despite the speed settings or pushing the food in slower.  MAJOR PROBLEM: stopped working after 5 uses.  Error message: E.  ***View online blogs and Breville website.  Once you get this code the juicer has to be replaced.***

We returned it.  :(

Do yourself a favor and DO NOT waste your money on this machine!  I can't think of anything I really like about it but I'll list everything I don't like:  1) It's very noisy, the 2nd time I used it was late at night and I worried it could wake my neighbors up.  2) The chute is too narrow so I had to cut up most of my veggies to make them fit.  3) The speed's so high that things don't get shredded well resulting in a too moist pulp and unjuiced chunks, also the pulp flies everywhere inside.  Also, the 2nd time I used a plastic cup collect the juice but the vibrations moved it while I was feeding the veggies and quite a bit of my juice fell on the counter top making a big wasteful mess. I'm sure a lower speed would've prevented these problems.  The first juicer I had, of another brand which I bought either in 1992 or 93, did a much better job than this, too bad I gave it away when I moved to a different state!

Since it was a gift and I didn't get around to using it until 4 mo. later there was no chance for me to return it, otherwise I wouldn't have kept it, but IMO it's really not worth the bother.

This juicer is one of the most expensive one I have used and the most troublesome one....would not recommend it to anyone.
It stalls and I have to clean it out 2-3 times before I get a glass full of juice...I use carrots and apples...forget the almond milk..it was not at all possible...

Unfortunately, during first use there was juice bubbling out the sides of the waste container. It also gets jammed up with pulp when juicing a large amount.  Had to stop and clean out the upper tray when the waste container wasn't even half full. I did buy a used unit that was listed as very good.  it looked brand new. Maybe that was my problem, buying a used juicer. Wont do that again.

This slow juicer is horrible!  This is my second juicer,  my first one's (a different brand) housing broke so I replaced it with this cheaper one thinking they were basically the same.  Not even close.  This juicer is way to fast,  resulting in lots of foam and pulp.  It takes twice as many vegetables to produce the same amount of juice as the other one.  It doesn't extract half the juice from the vegetables as it should,  a good indication of this is when I clean the strainer,  I can basically rinse it without any scrubbing - the pulp it produces is still completely wet as well!  I will be spending a little more next time to get the better machine.

I will not recommend this juicer. I had it delivered to my Mom a couple of months back and unfortunately it is only now that I was able to visit her & try it out for her. juicing carrots only made pulp and not much else. this "contraption" started shaking & making a lot of grinding noise. I've used juiceman II, juiceman jr & juiceman lady for years with no problem. this model should not have come out of production! the pulp just stays inside the bowl so if you want mush, this is for you :-( even the discounted price of this model was not worth it!!

I own a breville & should have stuck with it.

HORRIBLE!!!!! Not at all for the everyday juicer. Not even for the every other day juicer. Possibly works best if you juice on a weekly basis at most. I don't write reviews, good or bad, but I decided to write this one to help out those that may be like me. I LOVE juicing. I am used to juicing everyday as I grew up in a house with a juicing mama. Well I live on my own now with my hubby and two kids and we don't make a lot of money. So I saw the bad reviews but on average it seemed like most of the reviews were saying not a good juicer, but gets the job done. I thought it would do. I knew I would get the quality my mom has, but as long as it gets the job done, right. WRONG! ABSOTIVELY POSILUTELY WRONG!!! It could not handle me juicing every day, so I switched to every other day. I even did every two days but it still could not handle that much juicing. I also couldn't juice carrots. I don't know why, but that thing HATED carrots. It would shake violently and even scared my son (who was about 8 months at the time). It also ate itself... when I would take out the part that actually cuts/grates the fruit, there would also be shredded plastic. Finally one day it started smoking and died. So yeah, this is NOT for the everyday juicer. And it is NOT for carrots.

To be fair, this juicer does provide adequate juice. But the thing makes such a mess that in the end the juice really isn't worth the effort. Not only will machine's unstable wobble spray carrot pulp all over your kitchen counter, windows and cupboards, but the machine's mesh screen requires top-secret high-heat micro-wire brush sanitizing techniques that can only be found at NASA. From the time you take this monster (it's way too big for the average family) out of the cupboard you had to have built specifically to store it in, juice your juice and clean the umpteen parts, it's about 20 minutes of work for 12 ounces of juice. If you have that kind of time, maybe it's worth it.

This is my 3rd Breville and honestly either i have been cursed by someone to have such bad experiences with these juicers or I'm plain unlucky!

I bought this after my first Breville finally gave out and thought it would be a great deal and space saver since you pretty much get 2 awesome tools in one!

I got this in and unpacked immediately, washed it, dried it, cleaned all my fruits and veggies and started to juice!

Everything went great for about a week and then all of a sudden the one side started to leak no matter what i would try and juice. Then the second week the blender bottom unscrewed even though i would always tighten it as much as i could with my hand and then i would use the special tool provide in the Breville box to tighten/loosen the blender bottom.

This juicer will not juice vegetables on any speed period! Honestly even the settings it has don't vary that much so you can see and feel the difference with any fruit/vegetable.

And one thing i could never stand again which happens on all settings is that you got more froth than actual juice and personally YUK for me! I didn't pay almost 500$ for a frother!!

Some people may have been luckier than me or whatever but honestly from any standing point if you are going all out and you are spending all this money you expect nothing but the best. I may have been a little less upset if all this had not started happening in the 3 weeks i tried to torture myself keeping this at home but none the less even after a whole year this would be unacceptable to any degree.

I was juicing one evening to get a liquid base and then i poured it into the blender with some bananas and milk to make a smoothie and after 45 seconds of being on the bottom unscrewed again and that was it for me, i just ran to the computer and printed a return label. There was no way i was going to spend all this money and keep this in my kitchen for another day!

Shame on you if you fouled my once, shame on me if you fouled me twice so yup this had to go because there was not going to be a third time!!

After everything I've been through in less than 2 months with 3 different Breville models i doubt I'm buying from them anymore.

I would never buy this again nor recommend it to anyone!

We purchased three of these for our college dining hall.  All three broke after about 10 apples were cut.  The blades on these units are very weak and bend easily.  I called the manufacture directly and asked if they have blades that are more reliable and they told me they don't.  I asked for blade replacements and they told me that they do not sell parts separately and  I would need to buy a full unit.  I told them I would have to give the juicer a bad review on Amazon and they asked that I not.  However, I don't want others to be suckered into buying this garbage.

It's too bad! this juicer has some great features and design but it is very flimsy. It became annoying to use it  because of  frequent stops and constantly click noise. I decided to get another citrus juicer that costs more the $ 150.00 but it's worth it! What a world of difference. Don't waste your money on cheap products, and look for more reliable and durable products. AND, unfortunately, that applies to most  products made in China!

When I first used this machine there was a lot of juice in the pulp. The pulp was more wet than my first Qster juicer, which only cost $30.00.
I called them and told them immediately that I wanted to return it. They told me to wait for a label to return it with.
I called my charge company and told them to cancel the payment because I am retuning the machine.
A month later and I still did not receive the label. I called them and they said they mailed it. I asked them to send another label because I never received it. They said they would send another. Weeks later I called them and told them I want to return it please give me the address of where to send it. They said they can't, I have to have the return label.
I asked to speak to the supervisor and she told me that I had to put the payment through on my charge again before I can get the label. I said I don't want it I am trying to return it. She said I have to pay for it first. She said tell your charge company to call me.
My charge company told me not to put the charge through and called them. She put us on a 3-way line. I asked for the supervisor and the girl who answered told me the supervisor was at another desk. I asked the girl who answered the phone to tell her that my charge company wants to talk to her. The supervisor refused to come to the phone.
At that point I did some research for the address to return it and sent it with a confirmation that they had to sign to prove that they received it.
I now own an Oster.
I will never buy anything from tristar again.
