I have researched and watched many clips on the Omega 8003 and it took me a few month before I decided to buy it since that is a lot of money. Have to say that is the best decision I ever made, I love it and it is easy to clean and to put back together. I use it daily and it is well worth the money.
@S0Iari The Breville Elite is a good juicer too. Does some things better than the Omega and the Omega does some things better than the Breville. Brevilles are fun because you can crank carrots and applies out like mad. The Omega takes longer to do that but is less to clean and the juice quality is said to be better. The whole juicing thing is very subjective. Each has it strong and weak points.
@valkour22 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get it. I'm talking for now on. Did this video a couple years ago and I was sick when I did it. Voice was not happening then.
@valkour22 Yes. You tend to use a LOT of produce up when you juice. To do it a lot it will cost you some. The trade off is the nutrition you get in one glass is more than you can eat in one sitting. That is the theory if you buy into it. I do so that is why I juice.
@JuicerReviews kool, I just bought into it to like a day after i posted. I went to a store to find a juicer and got talked into buying the vitamix pro 500 series. dang thing was over 600 hundred bucks but , Ive lost 4pounds so far so i guess it was worth it lol.
@miamiwax I know, I know... The first batch of videos were not great but I had to start somewhere. I didn't like the sound of my voice. I was talking too much and babbling. I'm working on new ones and they will improve. And yes, I will talk and I know it is irritating because I didn't.
Why do you never juice apples or oranges in any of your juicer reviews? These are the 2 I'm interested in the most -- I refuse to keep buying this pasteurized crap from a Tropicana carton.
I was expecting the juice to come out where the pulp was so I was looking there and wondering what the hell kinda juice is that before i realized my mistake...lol!!!
One final comment here--unless you want to deal with the lesser juice quality of a centrifugal juicer or a Champion (which in its own way uses a similar process as a centrifugal juicer and has a lot of design problems), I think the only other way to avoid the necessity of chopping may be to shell out considerably more money for a double-gear model like a Greenstar. Then you're more in the $400 range as opposed to $200 range though.
Thanks. It comes from doing lots of research before buying my latest juicer (an Omega 8003, not coinidentally). My wife and I had first bought a Juiceman Jr--we knew juicing might have benefits for my wife's chronic health issues and wanted to buy something cheap just to try it out. When we decided to keep juicing for the longer term, we realized we needed to upgrade to something better, and that's when I started doing a bunch of research and looking at the tradeoffs with different juicers.
I'm also not sure what you mean when you say 'compared to a masticating juicer' as the Omega IS considered a masticating juicer (as are all single and double-gear auger types of juicers). I'm not sure what the comparison is that you're trying to make.
I always hear the term "masticating juicer" whenever a Champion is talked about. I hadn't heard it with the Omega or other single auger juicers at the time I made this video. However, now I see all over the Omega site in regards to this juicer so I guess I need to change that in the video. Thanks for heads up.
smr144, I disagree--a centrifugal juicer is going to produce much less juice with leafy greens and can't handle wheatgrass at all. Plus, by whipping your juice around at 1600 RPMs, you get a lot of air mixed into your juice, oxidizing it and removing nutrients (which is why juice from a centrifugal juicer is browner in color). It's really a tradeoff of time versus quality and versatility. I'll take that tradeoff any day.
@CliffinAZ I had a centrifugal juicer before I bought the Omega 8006 & I have to say that there is no comparison as to which is the better juicer. You get way more juice than a centrifugal & like you said, you can't even juice wheatgrass with one. It does take more time to feed the produce in to the machine but so what, if your time is that valuable that you can't spend a few more minutes on something that is very good for you then you should change something in your life to make the time.
This juicer is highly overrated. Notice how slow it is, how the carrots are chopped in little pieces and the beets are peeled which greatly helped the juicer to perform better. And the amount extracted from leafy greens is not that great compared to masticating and/or centrifugal juicers.
Sure they are great if you got a $1000 to spend on them and don't mind spending a bunch of time cleaning them. But most people don't want to spend the money or spend the time. So for $230 and less than 5 minutes to clean, I think this is a better choice.
@ty99999returns : Um...and so we are supposed to have a disposable 2K? I bought the Omega 8006...no need to get carried away. Plus, I saw a demo of the Norwalk and it was pretty nutty. I am sure that once you get the hang of it, it's a lot easier but it just looked so...involved.

@valkour22 No it doesn't. It takes about five or six carrots for a glass of juice. About a $1.50 even for organic.

which juicer leaves the lease amount of pulp?
this one looks like it leaves way too much

I think the omega vert is the new king on the block, but this one is more versatile with the option to make nut butters, and sorbets.

Yes. The Vertical machines look to be pretty killer. Much smaller kitchen counter footprint.
