  • 2-speed control settings– It has both low and high speed control settings that enable customized speeds for produce of differing consistencies. The slow 6,500-RPM speed is perfect for soft produce while the fast 12,000-RPM is for hard fruits like apples and carrots.

  • Large feed tube– The feed tube is generously sized at 3 inches to let you skip the tedious task of chopping and slicing your produce.
  • Safety mechanisms-The safety locking arm and the overload protection LED work together to guarantee your safety.

  • Warranty-This juicer is covered by a one-year warranty 

The good

Fast and powerful
This juicer juices fast and strong. Why, it can extract the juice of a pineapple with the rind on! To come up with a gallon of juice, you don’t have to wait for hours as you would with a masticating juicer.
Versatile
You can juice both hard fruits such as pears, beets and carrots just as well you would the softer vegetables and leafy greens – thanks to its dual-speed controls.
Easy
This juicer is designed for convenience. Consisting of only 5 parts, it is easy to assemble and clean. The simple, 2-speed control setting is easy enough for the technically-challenged while the large feed tube allows you to feed whole fruits and vegetables. And because the parts are top shelf dishwasher-safe, cleanup is a breeze.
High-quality juice
The very low heat generated ensures that the nutrients and phytochemicals of whole foods are kept unharmed in your juice. The accompanying froth separator eliminates much of the froth to give you juice that tastes good and keeps well. All surfaces that come in direct contact with the food and pulp are guaranteed to be BPA-free to ensure your health.
Safe
You don’t have to worry about overloading as the juicer comes equipped with a sensor which detects overloading, automatically shutting down the motor when you have inadvertently put in too much load.
Neat and clean look

The cord is designed to wrap around the base and hide away from sight so that what you see is just the sleek body minus the unsightly cords.

The bad

This is a centrifugal juicer and as such is not as highly-efficient as masticating and triturating types when it comes to juicing wheat-grass and other hard-to-juice leafy greens. You may need to run the pulp one more time to extract more juice. You may also need to sneak leafy greens in between hard fruits in order to juice them.
The decibel level of centrifugal juicers can be quite high, though some say the sound is not that disturbing.
 Best suited for
This Breville Juice Fountain Plus is a good choice for newbies in juicing who are still feeling their way around juicers and are afraid to invest in high-end masticating juicers. The simple 2-speed setting and the juicing-only capabilities is enough to satisfy those who simply want a healthful juice everyday and do not dream of pastas and rice cakes. It is the juicer of choice for busy people who don’t have the luxury of time and need to have their morning juice quick, but still value a quality, antioxidant bursting juice.
Not so good for
This juicer will not satisfy the hard-core juicing aficionado who juices mostly leafy greens and insists on froth-free juice. You can’t expect to have juice that will last for as long as 3 days. This may not also work well with people who want absolutely quiet juicers.

The verdict

Overall, this juicer rates highly when you consider the balance of many factors — speed, efficiency, simplicity, durability and price. It is excellent for juicing hard and soft vegetables and satisfactory for extracting the juice of leafy greens. Speed and power are its key features.
You will look forward to countless hours of juicing sessions as this juicer is easy to set up and operate and just as easy to clean. It is easy on both the eyes and the pocket, too!
