Leaving these particles alone is not an option since it will affect the performance of the machine eventually, plus it’s ICKY! Ewww!!īoth machines made some mess on the counters, back splash, and under the cabinets when fruits and vegetables were added to the juicers. These baskets are both tricky to clean well a brush is very helpful, but it still is time consuming to get all the little particles out of the tiny holes along the sides of the baskets. The cleaning work-load was very similar for both machines, though the filter basket was easier to clean on Hamilton Beach. The added low-speed on Breville is nice for when you juice soft items such as oranges I found that the lower speed created less foam. I did like the two speed option on the Breville juicer, compared to one-speed-only on Hamilton Beach. They both are crazy loud, but so is my beloved, powerful Blendtec blender! To me, the noise level was pretty equal for these two machines I’m not sure which one was louder. I don’t see how purchasing a much more expensive machine would save money even in the long run, but I could be mistaken. Machines in the several hundred dollar range will probably be able to extract even more juice from the pulp, but it seems to me that it would take many years of juicing before you could make up the dollar difference through juicing.

I also tried to run the pulp through the machine a second time, which squeezed out a few more dribbles, but not enough to be worth the extra effort. The pulp from Breville was a tad bit dryer, didn’t stick to my fingers as much, which suggests more juice having been extracted from it. If the Breville produced better (by teaspoons, maybe), it was not enough to justify spending the extra money based on this alone. When comparing, using similar amounts of produce going through both machines, they produced the same amount of juice. I thought the two machines were similar in performance, which surprised me since there was a significant price difference. Hamilton Beach’s cord is 27 1/4 inches long, or 29 1/4 inches including the plug.įor us, Hamilton Beach’s cord length was acceptable. There are several parts on juicers, and they do not necessarily fully interlock.īreville’s cord is 41 1/4 inches long, or 44 1/2 inches including the plug. This machine is somewhat easier to move because the various parts stay together a little bit better. The Hamilton Beach juicer doesn’t have quite as trendy of a design, but looks OK I think. It is nearly impossible to lift the machine as one unit, and moving it even a few inches on the counter top is tricky.

The Breville juicer is more bulky and harder to move around as the parts are difficult to keep together. This cannot be done on Breville’s juicer since the juice comes spraying out and will make a mess unless the proper container is in place. Hamilton Beach’s juice container is much smaller, but you can also fit a drinking glass under the spout in place of the juice catcher. There’s more to clean with a larger container and an added lid, and foam can be removed using a spoon on models without a lid. The container also has a lid that serves as a foam catcher.

At the same time, the juice container is much larger, which is a plus if you do a lot of juicing in one sitting. It comes in an attractive box, even! It is taller and wider than Hamilton Beach, requiring a bit more storage space. The Breville machine is beautiful, with a sleek and expensive look to it.

Sometimes items can be found cheaper on e-Bay, but my experience is that their new items often go for full price, especially if you add shipping. We found the best prices of either machine at Amazon. The results of testing both machines side by side, however, had us surprised! Cost wise, the Breville machine is more expensive by about $100, so we were expecting much better results as well.
