Omega J8005 Nutrition Center Single-Gear Commercial Masticating Juicer, Chrome and Black

Comment: The black and chrome appearance of the juicer goes well with all the other small and large appliances in my kitchen. The juicer operates very quietly and is simple to use. I run the solid fruit and vegetable pulp through again, after the initial extraction, to really get all the juice. I have not made pasta but all the other features work fantastically. I use this product daily and feel it will be around for quite a long time. Amazon's free shipping, as always, is very fast compared to other online companys.

Comment: I love this juicer. It's easy to assemble, use, take apart, and clean. The pulp it produces is dry. The juice is delicious (current favorite is carrot-apple-ginger). I haven't tried making nut butters, pasta, or baby food - but I'll get to that last one in the next few months. I'm pretty excited about making organic, local baby food without having to pay through the nose for it. I've had the juicer for about two months and have had zero problems with it.

Yes, you have to cut your produce into small pieces; the juicer likes them better that way. But what's the big deal? If you're eating a lot of fruits and veggies you're gonna be chopping on a regular basis anyway. Get over it.

Don't waste your time with high-speed, electric juicers. The 10-year warranty on this baby alone makes it worth the price.

Comment: First of all, I love Amazon. Never one issue after ordering over many years. And I'm very pleased with this juicer. With a 10 yr warranty, you know this company stands behind their product. I got the 8005 rather than the newer 8006 because I noticed in the reviews, some issues with the material the 8006 model auger is made from . And the only other difference was the configuration of the handle. Everything else is identical. I bought this juicer primarily to use in my Miami Beach apartment (my primary residence is in Pennsylvania). It arrived on time, and within minutes I was juicing away for myself and my family. It is simple to use, simple to clean and overall, a wonderful product. I even froze some bananas and mango chunks and put that though with the "blank" attachment...DIVINE! The bananas make a thick almost creamy dessert like ice cream. And the mango--WOW... just great. and low fat, healthy. I'm hooked. So much so that I told my husband I was going to put it in my carry-on bag and bring it back and forth---I just didn't want to leave it behind! He told me, no way---just buy another one for the house in PA. Now, that's love. can't wait to continue on my juicing journey!! Try adding some fresh ginger--just a bit--it makes a wonderfully, spicy, metabolism boosting drink!

Comment: I bought a Breville centrifugal juicer couple of months ago, At first I was excited...my first juicer, made decent amount of juice...but then I started to realize it wasted product so much...pulp was not very dry, greens don't juice at all, 60% of the time you would see vegetables or fruit slices in the pulp....

I ignored it first but then I became a serious juicer and not being able to juice greens bothered me, so I sold it off for half the price(I used it for 2 months...)and got my Omega 8005...I love it....pulp is very dry.

My only complaint is I dint have to cut nothing in Breville, for Omega you have to cut veggies and fruits up, Guess I will get used to that.....Another cosmetic issue I have is I donot like the plastic bins that come with it.....for a 260$ juicer they could have done a better job......

If you are serious about juicing..this is it.....LOVE IT

Tips...
1)Add honey and lemon if you want to sweeten vegetable juice...it tastes great...
2)Add an apple or some grapes to vegetable juices to make them more palatable...

Comment: I am new to juicing/ raw veg... foods, etc. I bought the juicer with some concern as to the investment i as making in all the juicers (I bought the Omega wheatgrass juicer, the Blendtec 5200 blender and the Jack deluxe juicer) I was buying... their utility and would they really simplify my life. I was very pleasantly surprised by the Omega wheatgrass juicer. It was very easy to use... right out of the box... was able to buy the wheatgrass from Whole Foods... and have become a daily drinker of the wheatgrass juice. Overall... am very pleased by this purchase and the machine.
