   Joanna – July 25, 2010

   I typically use our juicer once a week for my weekly orange juice fix & lime juice for drinks & cooking. Also, about four or five times a year (more?) we’ll use it for cases of limes and oranges at a time for parties. My once a week fix is about 25 oranges and about 20 limes. I just checked my order history and we bought this in May 2007 – it’s still going strong and still feels and looks new. It makes quick work of juicing a case of oranges or a case of limes (mmmm, margaritas!) and I’ve also used it regularly for grapefruit (see note below) and lemons.There are a few downsides that have semi-remedies:Hard limes. We have a lime tree and sometimes the fruit is quite hard. This can seemingly cause the machine to seize up (doesn’t seem to hurt anything, just won’t squeeze the juice). Our solution to this problem has been to roll the limes first to make them less hard.Oval limes & lemons. If the cut citrus is more than half a round ball the juicer can’t really handle it properly. Our solution to this is to use slices of the middle for garnish and then the fruit squeezes much more easily. Now we have pretty lime slices for margaritas or orange slices for other edible garnish.Huge grapefruits. So while it works “okay”, you do feel like you do feel like you’re losing some juice on these. I haven’t let this problem deter in my love for the machine. I simply wring the last bit of juice out by hand so that I don’t feel like I’m wasting any.Cleaning. Clean immediately and there will be no problems, but if you leave the pulp for a day (or night), it’s not going to be so easy to clean. I put all of the parts into the dishwasher and have never had a problem.Cabinet space. I used this at a friend’s house and saw that low cabinets can interfere with the handle, but I use it on an open island and my cabinets at home have more space between cabinet and counter top so it’s no problem for me. At my friend’s, I simply moved it closer to the edge and was much more careful about placing a glass to catch the juice so that it wouldn’t slide off.Slippage. It does move around some on slick counters. I have that problem (not really a problem, in my humble opinion) with my new granite counter top, but I’m sure that I could put it on a mat and stop that problem if I really felt it were a problem. I do keep my eye on where it is.Pulp. Sometimes if you’re doing a lot of oranges or grapefruit that has a lot of pulp, you may need to empty out the basket. I don’t see this as a problem, but I saw someone else comment about it. I do let the machine go extra revolutions for about 30-60 seconds to make sure I’m getting all the juice, but then I spoon out the seeds and pulp into the trash (or disposal to make the sink smell nice) before going another round. It comes with two pulp screens – one for low pulp and the other for higher pulp. Keep in mind that most of the nutrients are in the pulp. I love that you can change it because sometimes I use lime juice for a Thai soup and low pulp is better.The ease of use, the ease of cleaning, and the results produced have made this a GREAT BUY! I’m not a fan of products that have only one use, but even if I only used this for squeezing oranges, I would still say that it is one of the best purchases I have ever made. I have used many a hand squeezer or reamer and I still do on occasion for just one lime or whatever, but if you want fresh squeezed orange juice, this is definitely the way to go.

   UPDATE 7/5/2021: I upgraded my rating from 4 to 5 stars based on over a year of use since I wrote the original review. My wife and I love this citrus press. None of my early concerns (listed below) turned out to be issues at all. I love the little flap that allows you to stop the flow of juice between glasses. Since we usually make 2 glasses of juice, this has been handy. It doesn’t leak or drip at all.Original review:The unit is solid, nice looking on the counter, easy to use, very quiet, and really fast. This thing gets all the juice out of an orange half in seconds. I feel like I’m cheating. I am able to make juice in a fraction of the time and with much less mess than the plastic juice attachment for our Kitchen-aid. I can put an empty glass under the spout and fill it with juice without anything spilling or splattering, unlike the Kitchen-aid which makes a mess. You can make many glasses of juice before you need to clean the strainer. This was a very worth while upgrade.So why 4 stars instead of 5? The juice tray and strainer are both made of thin (but solid) stamped stainless steel with a safety issue: the thin outer rims are sharp, as are the inner rims that go over the shaft. If you were cleaning them and slid your finger quickly along this rim with much force, you could get the metal equivalent of a paper cut. I took the tray and strainer to my shop and sanded the edges a little. This helped, but the problem is that these rims are so thin, like a knife, that there is only so much I could do. If you normally wash with latex gloves, this is no issue. If you are aware and wash gently, you won’t have an issue, but you will notice the sharp edge so be careful.The specific model I got was the 800CPXLBSS. I received the unit from Amazon on Feb 25, 2020.One tip for assembly: the strainer has a little bump in the bottom with an arrow on it. When installed, this should point to the back of the unit, aligning with the bump in the juice tray. Because the spout on the juice tray is in the front, my first inclination was to align the bump in the strainer with the spout but I quickly saw this was incorrect.The unit comes with well written instructions, although you can figure it out without them. There are 4 spare white split O-rings for the top of the fruit dome. The fruit dome is the piece which snaps into the handle and keeps the top of the fruit from spinning. It is held in place by friction, and my guess is that these must wear out over time for Breville to include 4 spares. The ring is what keeps the fruit dome from falling out of the handle. This ring is not what keeps the fruit dome from spinning. The fruit dome is solidly keyed and has no chance of spinning.There is only one strainer, which is perfect. I like a little small pulp in my juice and this is exactly what the Breville 800CPXLBSS delivers. I found an on-line video that showed two strainers with the unit – one fine and one coarse. This must be an older video, or for a different model.The power cord has a nice finger hole in it to pull out of the socket (U.S. model).I am happy with the unit and would buy it again. This is our second Breville appliance. We have a Breville toaster that is incredible – a work of art in ease-of-use, features, and quality, which is why we decided to try this Breville Citrus Press. The Citrus Press is pretty nice and I’ll give it an A. The toaster gets and A+++.

   If you juice regularly get one of these. We do fresh citrus juice at least once a week so was well worth the m oney to have this. The handle makes it easy to apply the pressure needed on the fruit, much better than the ones you have to hold on by hand. The stainless steel parts make it very easy to clean also and you’re never going to wear them out. The moving parts we’ll see but seems as if I can get parts for it repairs would be fairly easy.

   Miss T – November 19, 2022

   It’s well made, quiet, and very effective. I’m completely satisfied with its performance as a citrus juicer. However, Breville completely dropped the ball on this one with respect to being a kitchen appliance, to the point that I’m convinced that nobody on the design or engineering team that created this has ever actually owned a countertop appliance like this. The problem is the handle, and it’s height. Fully extended, it makes this unit almost 18 inches tall. Fully compressed, it’s just about 10 1/2 inches tall. Nobody has 18 inches of storage to keep something like this when not in use, but most people have 10 1/2 inches somewhere in their kitchen. The thoughtful people at Breville could have added a simple lock to hold the handle down when not in use, but neglected to do so on a high margin, high dollar piece of equipment. As such, plan on either leaving this out as a permanent fixture on your countertop, or rigging something up to prepare it for storage. For this kind of money, I expect some actual thought to go into design. Do better, Breville.
