Our verdict

A whole-fruit centrifugal juicer that gets through apples and carrots with almost no chopping and cleans up in the dishwasher. It spins fast rather than pressing slowly, so leafy greens are a listed use but not its strength.

Overview

A home juicer who wants to drop whole apples down the chute without chopping gets exactly that here. A spinning stainless steel cutter grates the produce against a basket and centrifugal force flings the juice out into the jug, where a froth separator holds back the foam.

Speed is what you get: whole produce goes in, juice comes out in seconds, and the parts go in the dishwasher afterwards. Two speeds let you match the motor to the produce, but the machine is tall and heavy, so it wants a permanent spot on the counter rather than a shelf.

Who it's for

Morning juice for a family, with apples, carrots and celery going in whole, is the use the listing describes. Someone with a low cupboard over the counter should check the height first, and anyone after a quiet, slow-press machine should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Whole apples fit the chute
  • Two speeds to choose from
  • Stainless steel cutters
  • Dishwasher safe parts
Cons
  • Tall unit needs cupboard clearance
  • Pulp container size not listed
  • Centrifugal design, not a slow press
  • Heavy to lift in and out

Performance notes

Juice yield depends on how fast the produce goes down the chute: pushing slowly gives the cutter time to grate finely and the basket time to spin out the liquid. Switching between the two speeds changes how hard the cutter spins, and the froth separator in the jug holds back foam as you pour. Hard produce suits the mechanism; soft fruit tends to pass through wetter.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Breville JE98XL need assembly before first use?

The cutter and jug come apart for cleaning and go back together before each run; the listing names stainless steel cutters as the included component and says the parts are dishwasher safe. It plugs into a 120 volt outlet as a corded electric unit.

Is the Breville Juice Fountain Plus a cold press juicer?

No. It is a centrifugal juicer with a spinning stainless steel cutter, not a slow masticating press.

Can the Breville JE98XL juice kale?

Kale is among the listed recommended uses, alongside apple, carrot, celery and orange.

What does the froth separator on the Breville JE98XL do?

It is built into the jug and holds back foam when you pour the juice out.
