Over a year ago I bought this juicer from factory shop, It never seemed to be right, but as it was a 2 hour round trip to the shop i let it go until it got worse, I took it back and after been put down in the shop I took it for repair, after a month they had to give me a new one, this lasted about 6 or 7 months, then it exploded, It was 1 month out of warranty, The Breville help line is disgusting and arrogant, they would not replace it, Then i called again and said the motor warranty is 5 years, so they said take it for repair, the repair shop said they do not have replacement motors, so my $200 machine went in the bin, Never again Breville

Bad warranty service

We made a video response and unboxing check it out...this machine is awesome and we're using it everyday. The blades are super sharp so becareful! Also, you can juice a whole orange with peels but I wouldn't recommend it as it'll hurt the motor...thin skins you can put in whole...but then it tastes bitter.

sturdy, affordable, tough
the shoot is big but it has an obstruction inside it forcing you to cut your fruit down to size

This is a good juicer but I am finding its a little hard to keep clean. For price its good value. I am quite pleased with it and just wanted to make a note that the warranty period is very good. The finishing looks quality compared to others that have a cheap plastic appearance. Its very fast as well.

Purchased this juicer after months of researching online and in stores. Have been happy with it so far (bought it five months ago). Love the speed, look, quality and short prep. time for fruit or vegetable juices as well as the added bonus of a dial adjustment, large jug and pulp container. Have just purchased another one for my son.
Ease of use, quality and reasonably priced.
Is very large, make sure you have enough counter or under storage space.

I bought this based upon previous reviews and I am not disappointed. It is a quality unit, with good fit and finish. It is made of metal and plastic and weighs more than it looks like it will. It spins up to speed quickly and has variable speed for different fruits and vegetables. The centrifuge is well balanced with sharp teeth and a fine sieve. It is easy to clean. The soft fruit attachment, whilst functional, is more of a liquefier than a juicer.
Fast, efficient, well built, easy to clean.

I upgraded from a little machine that had a small jellybean shaped insertion which involved a lot of fruit cutting, a fair amount of mess and difficulty disassembling to clean. I researched a few juicers and bought the breville ikon off gumtree for $50. Very, very happy with it. Whole apples which retain their flavours, along with easily juicing beet root, celery, ginger, kale, watermelon etc. I have used the froojie to make a gorgeous mango slushy, with very ripe mangoes. Easy to take apart and rinse. Easy to reassemble. It is a big machine, so be aware of that. i am Very happy
Ease of assembly, juice extraction is thorough, easy to clean

I did my reseach on juicers, I went to choice online and compared all the juicers they had and this one they said was one of the best. I also went to Breville website to compare this one to the more expensive ones plus the new cold press one they had. Also spoke to family members as to which one they had and their thoughts and experince. A guy at work his wife brought the Breville 410 and is very happy, at the time 520 was not released. So in the end I chose this one and have not been disappointed.
Easy to take apart for cleaning, very easy to clean, It does not take up alot of space on my bench top. It is fast not much chopping needed.
So far I have not had any problems with it, but it is early days.

Done my research and this juicer proved to be very nice! Easy to put together, easy to clean, specially with most parts are machine washable. My husband and our toddler love the juice and smoothies. Great price: Harvery Norman has matched internet price, saving over $70. Doesn't take too long to clean fruits/ veg as it takes most of them (except citrus or hard skins ones) as they're!
Quick, easy to assemble/ dissemble. Brush that comes with it cleans the disk quickly and no residue left after.

Have had lots of fun working out combinations for smoothies and juices. The internet is fantastic for recipes. My 16 yr old son loves the fresh juices and smoothies. Says the smoothies are very filling. With just using the Breville twice, I was putting it together and taking it apart super fast. Also, Harvey Norman price matched on an internet price, so I saved over $70. Fantastic!!!!
Fun, easy clean, easy setup, healthy and great looking on my bench.
With a 1300watt motor, would be great with an icer attachment.

It has been easy to clean. The large chute means that I don't have to spend 30 minutes chopping if I am doing 2 litres of juice. To my surprise the oxidation in the juice (whilst admittedly more than a cold press juicer) has been a lot less than I thought it would be.
Juice can last up to 24-36 hours in the fridge if I have not used a lot of leaves in my juice. Kale and celery leaves seem to be the exception but spinach leaves don't oxidate and go off too fast. So if you are on a juicing fast or have a large family - you might want to consider this one. We use it daily, sometimes even twice! It's husband-friendly too ;-p

This is the second Breville juicer I have bought that has broken down. I don't care if it's under warranty, it's not worth my time and money to go driving around to get it replaced. The main thing I want from any product is for it to last a couple of years. I'm very unhappy about this and will be the last Breville purchase I make.
Looks okay
Broke down within less than two months of light usage (display lights up, flicking to "On" does nothing.)

A heavy duty juicer with an extra 84 mm feed chute for whole apples, pieces of fruit.
Love the second disc that can juice soft fruits and is ideal one for making delicious froojie-so yummy!
Makes dips too, as well as the smoothies, juices and froojies (juices soft fruit with lots of pulp-like a puree!)
Looks very smart, takes 5 min to clean (leave out to dry)
Delicious juices
Quick to use & clean
Good customer care
5 year warranty
