Breville The 3x Bluicer Pro - BJB815BSS

The Bluicer Pro was a birthday present to myself this year and, overall, it’s a pretty robust machine that performs well and is easy to clean. The interchangeability between blender and juicer is convenient and I don’t find the performance of either to be compromised by this dual feature.The juicer also shaves time off prepping, mainly because the chute is fairly wide so I don’t need to cut fruit and veg into small pieces. For example, I can usually feed in whole apples and a handful of celery in one go. The result is a cold juice, leaving very dry pulp in the side container that I easily empty into my compost bin.Now, for me, there is a minor con.Although it comes with an attachable spout that allows juice to run into a container of choice, I wish Breville ... MoreThe Bluicer Pro was a birthday present to myself this year and, overall, it’s a pretty robust machine that performs well and is easy to clean. The interchangeability between blender and juicer is convenient and I don’t find the performance of either to be compromised by this dual feature.The juicer also shaves time off prepping, mainly because the chute is fairly wide so I don’t need to cut fruit and veg into small pieces. For example, I can usually feed in whole apples and a handful of celery in one go. The result is a cold juice, leaving very dry pulp in the side container that I easily empty into my compost bin.Now, for me, there is a minor con.Although it comes with an attachable spout that allows juice to run into a container of choice, I wish Breville offered a pitcher with the same design as the blender, but without the blades. I like how the juicer nozzle fits perfectly into the blender spout so that it securely transfers juice without it splashing everywhere. This is a unique and useful feature. The problem is that using it as a jug means that juice touches the blades even when I’m not using the blending function. It’s not a huge problem, but I think the option of a pitcher would be a nice addition.

This is the best juicer that I have owned so far. I had a slow juicer and it just took too long when I wanted to do a quick juice. The bluicer whizzes along and it tastes just as good as a slow juicer.I love to juice carrots with some apple, orange and ginger and then crush some ice using the blender so that is becomes a frappe. The blender has a self clean function which is extremely useful to ensure that the blades can be cleaned properly.

We used our old XL juicer heavily for 10 years before my husband overloaded it one day. We debated the bluicer over getting a newer model of the same juicer but decided being able to juice leafy greens as well as do a blueberry smoothie on the same machine was too good to be true. We no longer need a stand up blender with this gem. Easy to use and cleans up like a charm. My only wish is that it came with a separate container to collect the juice so we didn't have to have use the blender container so often and save those blades from constant cleaning and spare my fingers.
