Compare Juicers
NeverClog Cold Press Juicer JC151 scores higher on safety - here's why.
The most important dimensions, side by side.
The filter basket where produce is shredded is stainless steel -- a safe, non-reactive surface. However, Breville does not specify the exact grade of steel used.
The auger and housing are BPA-free plastic, but Ninja does not identify the specific type. Without knowing the polymer, we cannot verify what chemicals were used in place of BPA.
Your juice collects in a plastic container of unknown type. Breville does not disclose what this plastic is made of, which is concerning for acidic juice that sits in direct contact with the material.
Your juice collects and sits in a BPA-free plastic container. While BPA has been removed, acidic juices in prolonged contact with unspecified plastic is still a consideration for chemically cautious families.
Breville has not stated whether this juicer's plastic parts are BPA-free. Without any disclosure, we cannot assess BPA risk.
Ninja confirms this product is BPA-free across all components. This is a baseline expectation for modern kitchen appliances.
Breville has not addressed whether this product contains PFAS. For a product with plastic food-contact surfaces, this is a notable omission.
Ninja has not stated whether this product contains PFAS (forever chemicals). For a product with all-plastic food-contact surfaces, this is a notable gap.
Breville mentions stainless steel for the filter but leaves the plastic components unidentified. This partial disclosure is a common industry pattern but falls short of what safety-conscious families need.
Ninja confirms BPA-free status but does not identify the specific plastic type or address other chemical concerns. Partial transparency.
No independent lab has tested this product for heavy metal content in its food-contact surfaces.

Centrifugal extraction is the fastest method but generates the most heat, destroying some vitamins and enzymes. Not effective for leafy greens like kale or spinach.
Cold-press masticating extraction slowly crushes produce, preserving more vitamins and enzymes than centrifugal juicers. Your juice stays fresh for up to 72 hours in the fridge.
The 700W motor handles hard fruits and vegetables without issue. Apples, carrots, and beets are processed quickly.
The 150W motor is well-suited for slow extraction. It handles most fruits and vegetables effectively, though very hard produce may need to be cut smaller first.
At 14,000 RPM -- the highest speed in this comparison -- this juicer generates the most heat during extraction. Your juice oxidizes almost immediately and should be consumed right away.
Ninja does not publish the exact RPM for this model. We are working from the brand's cold-press designation, which typically means under 120 RPM.
One fixed strainer with no pulp adjustment option. You get whatever pulp level the machine produces.
Two interchangeable filters let you choose between smoother or pulpier juice. A nice touch that most budget juicers skip.
No noise measurement is available. Like all centrifugal juicers, expect loud operation -- likely too noisy for open-plan kitchens during quiet hours.
No noise measurement is available. Masticating juicers are generally much quieter than centrifugal models, so expect a low hum rather than a roar.
All removable parts are dishwasher safe -- a major convenience for daily juicing routines.
All removable parts go in the dishwasher, which is a significant daily convenience advantage over hand-wash-only competitors.
Five parts to take apart -- simple enough for daily use without frustration.
Five parts to disassemble and reassemble -- manageable for daily juicing without frustration.
At 15.7 inches, this is slightly more compact than the JE98XL but still borderline for under-cabinet placement. Measure your clearance.
At nearly 16 inches tall, this juicer may not fit under standard kitchen cabinets. Check your counter clearance before purchasing.
One year of warranty is the industry minimum. For an $80 appliance this is expected, but it does not inspire long-term confidence.
One year of warranty is the industry minimum. For a $130 appliance, this is standard but not reassuring for long-term durability.
At $80, this is the cheapest juicer in the comparison. The low price is appealing, but the undisclosed plastic materials and poor nutrient retention mean you are trading transparency and quality for affordability.
At $130, this is competitively priced for a cold-press juicer. The juice quality is genuinely good, but the material safety gaps mean you are paying less and getting less transparency.
Everything you need to make the call - who each one is for, and who should skip it.
Go for it if you...
You want the absolute cheapest way to start juicing and plan to drink your juice immediately.
Material transparency is not a priority and you are comfortable with unspecified plastic food-contact surfaces.
You need a compact, dishwasher-safe juicer for occasional use rather than daily juicing.
Speed matters more than nutrient retention -- you want juice in seconds, not minutes.
You want cold-press juice quality at a budget-friendly price under $130.
BPA-free plastic is acceptable to your family and you are less concerned about PFAS or specific polymer identification.
You value the NeverClog feed chute and dual-filter pulp control for daily convenience.
Dishwasher-safe parts are important because you juice every day and need quick cleanup.
The main thing to know
This juicer has the same undisclosed plastic container as its larger sibling the JE98XL, plus the highest RPM (14,000) in the comparison -- meaning both material safety and juice quality are at the bottom of the pack.
Every food-contact surface is BPA-free plastic, but Ninja will not tell you what type of plastic it is or whether it contains PFAS. For families who prioritize chemical transparency, this is a significant unknown.
Skip this if you...
You care about what materials your food touches -- Breville does not disclose the plastic type, BPA status, or PFAS status.
You want to store juice for later -- at 14,000 RPM, the juice oxidizes almost immediately.
Nutrient retention is important to your family -- centrifugal extraction at this speed destroys the most vitamins and enzymes of any method.
You need to know the exact type of plastic touching your food -- Ninja does not disclose the polymer.
PFAS-free verification is a requirement for your family's kitchen appliances.
You prefer stainless steel or glass food-contact surfaces to eliminate plastic leaching concerns entirely.
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
