Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Breville 800CPXL Die-Cast Stainless-Steel Motorized Citrus Press
Customer Review: Well worth every penny!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best citrus juicer ever! Like others, I swallowed hard at the price tag. I even postponed ordering for a few days to think it over. Would I really use it enough to justify the high price tag? In the end, the rave reviews of others convinced me, and I'm glad they did! What a great purchase this was!
This machine makes juicing so easy! The designer was obviously thinking about every design detail. It's just about as perfect as a citrus juicer could be! Effective, easy to use, easy to clean, dishwasher safe--what more could one want?
The machine is faster and quieter than any other juicer I've owned (which is really nice first thing in the morning). And, unlike so many other juicers, the machine requires very little hand or arm pressure to do the job. The long arm takes all the work out of the process. And this juicer never balks, as so many do. It just does the job, quickly, thoroughly and efficiently.
It's now a pleasure to make fresh orange juice every single morning. I've also made real lemonade and fresh lemon-lime ade. Ever tried them? They're delicious!!! Oh, and we've made fresh grapefruit juice, too!
The machine has handled every fruit beautifully.
Like others, I do wish there was another, "coarser" strainer, for those of us who love lots of pulp in our juice. But maybe that would allow too many of the small seeds through. And it's not a big deal to just scoop out the pulp and add it to the juice.
I also was a bit concerned about reviewer reports of the large size. Yup, it's larger than regular juicers, but I love it so much and use it so much that I've "found" space on my counter for it!
If you love fresh citrus juice, for the flavor, for the health benefits, or both, Breville is the citrus juicer to buy! In fact, I'm considering splurging and buying one for each of my adult kids!
Customer Review: Almost perfect
Summary: 4 Stars
great for oranges and limes - lemons with 'knobby ends" can spin in the holder and not press as well (solve by cutting in half sideways instead of vertically)
well made - HEAVY - occasionally needs some encouragement to start spinning if you lower handle very gently
once you get used to its minor foibles, it's a wonderful machine, although one you won't want to lift on and off the countertop if you have the space to leave it out
Customer Review: fruit press
Summary: 4 Stars
I've pressed about 400 oranges and limes with this machine. It does a beautiful job of squeezing every last drop of juice from the fruit - and I mean it sucks it dry. The effort on my part is minimal. My only concern is that it sometimes makes a squeeky noise - so I don't know if it will last in the long term. I've used many juicers, and this is by far the best, so I'm hopeful.Customer Review: The Cadillac of juicers
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a frequent juicer -- not in great quantities, but I juice often. This juicer makes such convenient work of it. I think the keys are: stainless so it's easy to rinse and clean, and the juice tray. Unlike other models, this has a spout that directs the juice where ever you want: a glass if it's an orange, a small measuring cup if it's lemon or lime. And the tray isn't a bowl, so it is shallow, easy to rinse out and there's little fuss. You would think that such a large machine (it is heavy and big -- but attractive on the counter) would demand a lot of maintenance, but it doesn't.Customer Review: Great Juicer
