Omega VRT330HD Heavy Duty Vert Juicer, Pearl White

 (8 customer reviews)

I needed a juicer that would be easy to use and easy to clean. If it is not easy then I know from experience that I just won't use it and it will be a waste of money. I've been using this one for 5 or 6 months and I love it. It is easy and cleans up quickly. I use it mainly for apple, orange, grapefruit, and carrot juice. I also juice lemons to make fresh lemonade. We put the pulp in our compost bin. I'm very happy with it so far. I hope it lasts for many years.

Update 2/2012: I now use the juicer extensively for vegetable juice also. I'm happy to say it juices leafy greens and other veggies just fine.

I've had the VRT330HD a few weeks now and I've used it everyday. I like that it juices greens better than my old champion, much quieter too. Overall I am satisfied. It takes less work to feed the juicer but I cut up the produce in small pieces especially celery so I hasn't clogged once. Strong motor. I actually like the chewing sound it makes when I put in carrots. It's like the way a human chews rather than a high speed juicer that rips and pulverizes. I believe it produces a better quality juice. Now if it lasts up anywhere near the 10 year warranty that would be great.

My wife and I am are on day 20 of a 30-day juice fast, and we have used this machine for everything. We've juiced whole cantalopes with the rind, 25 lbs. of carrots, and piles and piles of leafy greens like kale, spinach, lettuce, etc. We've done every hard root plant as well as things that aren't recommended, like strawberries (which come out more like a smoothie). The key is to chop things up first--especially celery and greens that are stringy. It comes with a fine mesh screen for less pulp, or a wide mesh screen for more pulp. I think the "pulpy" version would be disgusting; as it is, we strain some of our blends though another mesh strainer that we have so...Read more
