With the BBB 20% off coupon, I was able to spend some cash and upgrade from my borrowed juicer. The Breville is superior in every aspect over the Braun.
- The pulp that's spit out of the Breville comes out dry. The Braun spits out mushy, wet pulp. Veggies are expensive. I hate the fact that I'm throwing away all that juice that's still in the pulp after using the Braun.
- The feed hole in the Braun is mega small. I'd spend so much time chopping an apple in 6-8 pieces, and then feeding them through the small hole one by one. I'd have to cut cucumbers and carrots in half length-wise. The Breville can swallow a baseball whole. So no more chopping! Just throw in apples whole...seeds, stems, and everything!
- The Braun's juice spout is so low to the ground/counter. I'd have to hold up my glass against the spout in an angle with one hand, while feeding veggies with the other. The Breville is high up and also comes with it's own juice container that's splash proof and it can also remove the foam!
Granted $150 is a lot to spend on a juicer, but this will save me money (in the very long run) and also a lot of time!
YAY! I was wondering when you'd pull the trigger! Welcome to the world of easier juicing:)

You could also make popsicles for Haley! Juice an apple(or any fruit), remove all the pulp from the back before you add your veggies for your own juice, mix it with some of the fruit juice that spit out and throw in the popsicle mold. I'm sure cantaloupe would be killer! (maybe sneak in a carrot for good measure:)
