 I prefer Breville's Ikon November 30, 2008

I've had the opportunity to try both the Elite and the Ikon. I much prefer the Ikon. I found the Elite unnecessarily large. Both have the same ample-sized 3" fruit and vegetable receptacle in width, but the Elite's "food pusher" and chute are longer than the Ikon's, making the Elite more difficult to fit under an upper kitchen cabinet. The Elite looked too industrial and imposing on the counter. The Ikon looks "just right," and the Ikon's additional speed controls are a great plus. Also, the Ikon's "safety locking arm" is easier to use, possibly because it's more substantial, and the "arm" is more attractive than the Elite's.
WORTH NOTING: I bought the Ikon from Bed, Bath & Beyond. With their 20% off coupon, it was less expensive than Amazon's price and I didn't have to wait for Amazon to ship it to me. (I live close enough to BB&B to have been able to bring the juicer home in my shopping cart so no shipping charge was incurred -- both now charge sales tax, at least if bought in or sent to New York City so there was no saving for me if I bought from Amazon.) I returned the first Ikon to BB&B for another because I sensed something was not totally right. Sure enough the second Ikon felt and sounded perfect. (The pulp was definitely drier. I still sometimes run the pulp through a second time and the juice yield is greater. I just don't know if the additional amount is worth the effort.) I suspect variations of quality between the machines occurs frequently, so don't hesitate to make an exchange if you believe something is wrong. Amazon.com and BB&Beyond are very customer friendly so returning and/or exchanging was very easy.
WORTH NOTING #2: The reconditioned Breville extractor I received from Amazon.com was in amazingly bad condition. (I think the former owner cleaned the plastic juicer cover with the cleaning brush that should be used only on the filter basket.) The plastic was so scratched that no part of it was clear. The machine should never have been sent to me. The good news is that Amazon.com took it back with only a few questions.) I have since learned that there's a link on the ordering page for juicers that are "reconditioned" that allows you to specify the condition of the reconditioned machine that you're willing to accept.
Thanks to the reviews I read on Amazon.com of others who experienced the juicers before me, I knew to use a plastic bag in the pulp container -- definitely a helpful hint. I think too much is made of the difficulty and time consumption involved in cleaning the juicer. The important part to clean ASAP is the stainless steel filter basket. I just fill the sink with warm, sudsy water and drop parts in to be cleaned when I'm ready. If the plastic does become stained by carrots, a little fresh lemon rubbed on the stain removes it.
Good luck on your choice.
Great juicer. November 25, 2008

This juicer does all it says it will. I have even put cantelope through it (rind and all) and the juice was delicious. I had tried Jack LaLanes juicer previously and it was a real mess. I sent it back for a refund. This juicer is real quality and I would recommend it to anyone interested in juicing for their health.
Great Juicer November 23, 2008

I have had this juicer for over a year and just purchased one for my in-laws. It is a wonderful juicer, easy to use, easy to clean, and an added plus, looks nice sitting out on your kitchen counter. It does a good job of extracting all the juice from the fruits and vegetables. The pulp that is ejected is very dry. The large opening is a huge time saver, as you don't have to cut the fruits and vegetables into small pieces. The juice catching container has measuring lines and a cover that prevents any splatters. There are only a few minor negatives: (1)because of the speed it does produce a fair amount of foam and (2) it does not juice grasses or greens very well. But, there isn't a juicer out there that does both fruits/veggies AND greens well. You really have to have two different kinds of juicers for that. All in all, I am extremely pleased with this juicer. I would highly recommend it.
BEST JUICER.....BY FAR!!!!!! November 14, 2008

I have owned a $100.00 Juice Man juicer for a year and it finally stopped working. It was hard to clean. I juice every morning and alternate between Fruit (apples, pears, pineapple, oranges and limes) and vegetables (plum tomatoes, celery, carrots, jalapeno, cilantro). The carrot residue is exceedingly difficult to remove from the basket and the tomato seeds get stuck between the cutting blades. The brush is cheap and slowly lost about half of the bristles over the year. When it quit, I fell for the TV hype and bought a Jack Lalanne Power Juicer Pro. What a piece of junk! At least the Juice Man has a good positive locking bar. The J.L Power Juicer has plastic grommets on top of the locking bar and a plastic cover which does not provide a good lock. Poor design!!!
I was told it was defective and sent it back and it was replaced. The second machine bogged down with the slightest pressure.
Its basket had the identical problems encountered with the Juice Man I sent it back and got a refund.
THEN I bit the bullet and bought the Breville Juicer.(800JEXL) Top of the line $299.00. with a 30.00 discount coupon at B.B and Beyond. The Titanium basket is twice as easy to clean. Carrots clean on the first run and it has yet to retain one tomato seed. Its rpm is so much faster than the other two. AND the residue is normally quite dry. The residue from Juice Man and JL Power Juicer was nrmally quite wet (contrary to the TV Hype). I bought small waste basket trash bags put in the residue catcher and cleaning is a breze. The Breville has the fewest parts, all the metal parts are sturdy. The juice collector is big (1 quart) and better in that it contains the juice better. The froth separator is ok ...but not that great on any of the machines. Thats ok for me as I always throw the fruit juice in a blender and add a banana and a raw egg. The veggies do not froth half as much. The Breville brush seems to have the bristles attached better as well. Have not lost one yet during cleaning.
Botom line...if you ae a hard core juicer and want a strong machine that easy to clean, sturdy and simple.....Buy the Breville Model 800JEXL. It has not bogged down on high speed and 99% of the time the residue does not chunk. I am totally satisfied.
