Mother’s Day gift idea: Breville fruit and vegetable juicer

May 1st, 2013

Appliance News

Is your mum a bit of a health freak?

(My mum is. She’s a Jazzercise instructor* who has really buff forearms and if you think I’m joking she’ll come and beat you up).

The cliché of a kindly mother standing in the kitchen surrounded by sponge cakes is not only outdated – it’s a more than a little patronising. (Not, however, that there’s anything wrong with cake).

We here at Appliances Online appreciate that just because a woman has managed to reproduce does not automatically mean she’ll transform into the sort of person who wears polka dot aprons and says things like “Your pie is cooling on the windowsill.” Mothers are people, too, people! Look a little closer and you’ll discover that the majority of mothers have interests more diverse than keeping mantelpieces dust-free and ensuring their whites are white enough to cause snow blindness.

Okay now that I’m done with my self-indulgent and vaguely incoherent intro, here is a product we recommend that you buy for your mum, not just because we’re a company that sells appliances, but because we really, truly care about the health and wellbeing of your ma**:

The Breville Juice Fountain™

At only $139 ($60 less than the RRP!) this juicer is a total bargain that you’d have to be mentally incapacitated not to purchase.

But not only is it cheap (but shhh! No one has to know that except you, me and 17,000 strangers on the internet), this juicer is actually awesome.

Yes, it’s the bee’s knees, and here’s why:

1. Large chute

This Breville juicer has an extra-large feed chute, which means you don’t need to muck about with cutting up pieces of fruit in order to juice them. This makes the juicing process quicker, easier, and less messy.

2.  Micro mesh filter

What’s all this? Micro what now??

Calm yourself. A micro mesh filter is what this Breville juicer uses to extract more juice and nutrients from fruit and vegetables. This means the juice that comes out of this thing is like way more healthy than anything you’d get from a bottle, or from an inferior juicer. More healthy means more being alive time, which is largely considered to be a good thing. Yay!

3. Easy-clean design

Who has time to spend laborious minutes and hours cleaning a stupid juicer? Not your mum. (She’s too busy ironing your underpants). This is why you should get her this juicer, because you can just chuck all the bits the dishwasher and hey presto – everything’s clean, shiny and juicer-ific. Shazam!

4. We don’t mean to imply anything about your mum’s appearance, but…

…Breville is the brand of juicer featured in the documentary Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead. A true story, this film documents the journey of ex-businessman Joe Cross from fat and sick to healthy and trim – thanks to a 60 day juice fast. (Yep, he consumed only green juice for 60 days in an effort to give his body the nutrients it needed so his own immune system could kick into gear – and it worked!)

Joe Cross, the man.

And thanks to Breville, you can now watch Fat Sick & Nearly Dead on YouTube in its entirety. Fascinating viewing!

So there you have it! The world’s most perfect Mother’s Day gift. So quickly now, buy it! We’ll even deliver it – for free – to her door. It seriously doesn’t get much easier… well, maybe lying on your stomach and drooling is technically easier, but aside from that this is the second most easiest thing you could do.

You don’t need to thank me***! Just all in a day’s work. 🙂

*This fact is one hundred percent true.

**No, really.

***But if you insist, I drink (very expensive) red wine, cheers.
