Operation
The Breville
Ikon provides varying speed to make it easier to extract and juice between soft
and dense fruits and vegetables. The minimum setting at 6500 RPM is enough for
soft fruits and leafy vegetables. The maximum setting on the other hand is best
for dense items such as apples and carrots. The circular feed tube allows
juicing and extracting of items without the need to peel, slice, or cut them
first. It is strategically positioned almost on top of cutting disk. This
provides better balance and performance from the product.
Efficiency, Life Expectancy, and Maintenance
Maintaining the item is very easy. All parts are made
of detachable plastic and are dishwasher safe. Its micromesh filter ensures
that the juice stays in while the fibers keep out, making it easier to clean. It
doesn’t stain as well even with the acrylic pitcher as long as you clean immediately
after use. A brush is included for cleaning purposes too upon purchase of the
product.
Made of a stylish and sturdy stainless steel
material from the casing to the blades, the Breville BJE510XL is expected to
last for years. The motor will not burn out even when regularly used unlike
other juicer/extractor products.
This product can be considered as one of the most
efficient among fruit juice extractors. It can extract a fruit and make juice in
as fast as 5 to 8 seconds only. For those who are not a fan of froth, its froth
and juice separator will make sure you pour only the juice and not the froth
into your glass.
A powerful motor embedded with a smart chip automatically
increases power during a heavy load of items or when denser items are feed in.
The backlit display even shows a guide when
choosing between different speeds.
Pros and Cons
The Breville Ikon is a very effective and time
efficient juicer and extractor. The feed tube is large enough to accommodate
whole food items without the need to cut or slice them. It operates quietly and
can be considered as one of the quietest fruit juice extractors offered in the
market today.
Although the plastic parts were designed for
easier cleaning, some customers may prefer an all metal finish. It is also
quiet heavy and may be inconvenient to wash when using a small sink and not a
washer.
Reviews
The most notable review of the product is from
the Choice Magazine from Australia. The magazine can be compared to the ranks
of ConsumerReports.org in the U.S. The magazine tried and tested 17 juicers and
awarded the Breville BJE510XL as the runaway winner.
A number of home consumers also attest to the
effectiveness of this fruit juice extractor. It is also very easy to setup
according to many. Just connect the parts and pieces together and in seconds, you
are ready to juice.
