Cold Press Juicer Machine, All-in-One Nutrition System for Vegetable and Fruit Juice, Nut Butter, Baby Food, Pasta and Sorbets, Triple-Stage 80-RPM Slow Masticating Juicer, 200-Watts, Chrome

The description is accurate. this item is very quiet, as detailed. i live in an apartment and did it at 5am and legit you cant hear it from the other room. it also gets the pulp very dry. i saved the pulp, and made it into crackers, veggie meat balls, stir fry. i kept all of it and added it to recipes to give it more umff. lasagna. etc. i didn't try making nut butter, sorbet, baby food, or pasta, but i bet that this product makes those things very well. it is a very effective. cleaning it isn't terrible. there are YES a lot of pieces, but i found it a lot easier to clean than the centrifugal juicer that i had. not too many knooks or cranies for food to get into, so pretty much you just rinse every piece and its good to go. fast cleaning. do your research. look up differences btwn masticating and centrifugal. look up the vitamins that are kept. look up the risks of taking the fiber out in your diet. look up how long juicing shelf life is. look up other companies/brands and where they source their plastic and labor. all that being said, i found that the OMEGA J8006HDS was the best fit for me and my needs. the price is worth it too for the warranty - not every brand offers that warranty. I was very hesitant to buy bc i didn't feel the company had a lot of transparancy with the parts and where the plastic came from. the reviews were also confusing and contradictory. here is my correspondance with the company: ("is there bpa in the plastic?") Yes and no. We use BPA Free materials in as many parts as we can. This means the plastic used has zero BPA in the raw material. Problem is, these are not always strong enough for the juicing process. The auger and screens are made of GW Ultem which is a petroleum-based product. Meaning, it has BPA in the raw material used when making these parts. Luckily, the plastic extrusion process is done under extreme pressure and at high heat. This transforms the finished product so it is less likely to leach BPA into the juice. Additionally, when you hear of BPA and the need for BPA Free products, it is normally referring to containers and other items that have long contact with your end product AND/OR are used under high heat with your end product. Examples: Spring water in a plastic bottle. Microwave containers. Each of these gives the chance for leaching as the items are in contact for a very long time or in contact during a heating process. Since the juicing process does not happen under high heat and the juice is not in contact with the parts, except for a few seconds, this is not an issue. All of the testing we have seen in the past shows that there is no BPA leaching into the juice under normal juice conditions. i also asked about which country mine came from: The NC models are made in South Korea, no difference in operation just made in different countries. The plastic from south Korea is a little stronger. i decided to return this as i felt that juicing was not for me. i am a very healthy person - been vegan for years, run marathons, great diet and exercise. i take herbs and prefer natural medicine. i bought this juicer with the hopes of adding extra vitamins to my life to treat anxiety, better sleep, and more energy. however after more research, i felt that taking the fiber out of the fruits and veggies wasnt the best for absorption of the sugars and certain vitamins. i what i wanted was a new diet every day method, not just an every-now-and-then activity. i dont think juicing every day aligns with my diet philosphy, or goals. so i returned it. but that doesnt mean it isn't right for others.

Had an Omega centrifugal juicer for 20 years (until the motor blew). Lasted long time (but I was a light user before; juicing daily now.) Didn't like either the cleaning chore or the fact that so much was wasted -- really quite excessive. Looked at ALL options. I was inclined towards the newer versions, but settled on this J8006 to a large extent because of the reviews. (Thank You, Everybody!) * I'm way happy that the fiber output is very dry -- just like everyone said. 300 times better than the centrifugal. Exceedingly little waste. * Maybe it's called "slow" but it is just fine. I still can't chop and peel quick enough to keep it running. Speed is no issue. Yes, it stays cool. * Someone complained about no screen provided in the newer ones. What I thought might be a point turned out not to be (for me). With the screen in place, what comes through is pretty watery. And about half was above the screen and half below the screen, so forced me to stop and deal with it way before I was ready. I wasn't about to throw out 50% so used a spoon to see what went through the screen -- 99%. Tiny bits of fiber (smaller than with the centrifugal) in the juice is better, I think) as gives body to the juice and good for my body and its plumbing, even as minor as the amount of fiber coming through is. Really, it's just fine straight out and I'm not using the screen after that first use. * There were many complaints about breaking plastic on the newer ones. This weighed more, I figured likely more metal, likely more solid. * From the photo, it looked like the plastic bins were pretty cheap. Wrong! They are sturdy and good quality. The juice bin holds a quart, the refuse bin is larger. * The number of reviews and great reviews on the J8006, including recent reviews in light of newer options available, impressed me -- it's still going strong. Even on the Omega website, it's shown pretty much first. * Yes, can't say why, but the juice does taste better. * Cleaning is way easier. Less parts, less mess, easier on and easier off. I did discover that I had to brush the fine screens harder -- but happy to do so as they do a great job! * I just finished juicing two pomegranates. They came out terrible with the centrifugal; came out perfect here. What else I've juiced: beets, carrots, cauliflower, collards, parsley, two kinds of kale, lemons, oranges, celery (lots!), leeks, cucumber (I like ending with that as it flushed out the system). Everything comes out absolutely perfect - absolutely! * Citrus juicer gains far, far more juice than any other kind - squeeze top, hand grip compression -- this gives way more juice. The time to cut off the peel (can be done quickly, doesn't have to be exact) is worth every bit of the output. Lemon, orange. grapefruit -- all fabulous! * And a 15-year warranty? My last Omega lasted 20 years. Just can't beat that!

This is probably the fourth (or fifth) ones that I bought. I bought them for family members and all love them. It is heavy and sturdy, well made. The juicer feature is great. It extract every last bit of juice out of anything, leaving behind just the dry bits. Cleaning is also easy, just rinse and dry.

I am upgrading from Hamilton Beech Big Mouth juicer. I’ve had the Big Mouth for 18 years. Still works, but I wanted a juicer that isn’t centrifugal. Thus juicer, the Omega, makes much better tasting juice. The pulp is very dry. I juicer carrots and beets daily. This juicer handles that well. With the old juicer the beets juice would burn my throat, not so with this new juicer. However, if you are in a hurry in the morning g this may not be for you. It takes about 20 minutes to get 16 ounces. And the produce has to be cut into smaller pieces to fit the feed chute. I’m giving 4 stars because Amazon sent returned product to me. It works fine, but the 2 collection contains ears, for pulp and juice, are missing. The warranty card was also missing. It didn’t arrive in its original original packaging either. None of that is a big deal, but I don’t think I should have had to pay full price. Bottom line: this makes very good juice. It isn’t aerated, and the pulp is very dry. I find it worth the money.

I unpacked this last week, looked very well made and simple to assemble. yesterday (week later) I went shopping again, purchased veggies to make a beet mixure as found on line website. I so far haven't even looked at the instruction booklet (that's how simple this thing is to assemble and run), anyway I just made enough beet based juice drink for my wife and I today and enough leftover for one of us tomorrow. it's incredible how much juice it gets out of all the different veggies, beets, ginger, parsley, cucumber, lemon, and apples. The flavor was my biggest worry, this stuff was delicious though. My first time juicing or using this machine, I couldn't be happier with my choice in equipment and my recipe!

Hi I bought this machine for juicing basically but I found it had extra features like grinding coffee and making smoothies which I also like. I've only used it 5 times since I bought it, it got jammed and the auger inside broke on the first day of use and today the same thing happened, so all I want now is my money back. If you want to read the details, check the pictures and video as well: On first day of use it jammed, the blank Cone over rotated inside plus the plastic in the auger chipped and broke, while grinding coffee. I was told to put it in warm water and see if the parts could be separated, but I tried and it was impossible to separate. Fortunately all of the pieces were replaced, I payed $10.00 for shipping and I received the parts in about 5 days. Now, on my 5th time of use, I just finished doing a banana and berries smoothie, which came out great and after I finished eating it, I found that I couldn't remove the parts to wash it. I then noticed that the same thing happened again, the same blank cone got over rotated inside the Drum, plus the plastic auger chipped again in multiple pieces and I noticed that I had eaten the smoothie with the plastic chipping! The Auger and Blank cone are impossible to separate from the Drum, plus I am now shocked because I ate the plastic in my smoothie. I hope that doesn't harm my body, but I just ate part of the plastic auger that chipped! You can see the small plastic in the bowl of water because I put it all the parts to soak. OMG!!! At this point I just want my money back. The juicer isn't that great either, you can only do about three juices at a time because the fruit starts getting jammed and you have to wash all the parts to do a new one. I don't recommend this machine!!! I hope I do get my money back. I feel frustrated about all this happening!!!

I've had this Omega juicer for a little over four years. I have no complaints. I juice 5-7 days every week, sometimes twice in one day. My standard juice is oranges, a lemon, carrots, a beet, and ginger. I've juiced just about everything, including apples, pears, kale, chard, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, cukes . . . The pulp is always dry. No chunks of hard vegetables get stuck; I've never had to take it apart mid-juice. After a couple of years the plastic on the smaller end of the screen came off. I thought I needed to replace the piece so I did. Twice. Neither replacement let the juice through completely -- it was a mess. No satisfaction from the company, so I kept using the original screen. Apparently it doesn't need that plastic edging after all.

Here is what you need to know about this juicer. This model has features that are upgrades from previous Omega juicer models. Many other juicers have the same auger but the key advantage of this model is the motor and the end cap. The motor has 2 horse power. This is a better measure of the torque or circular force the motor is able to put out when compressing the piece of food. The end cap can be adjusted to further compress the food by narrowing the exit chute and extracting more juice.i have only juiced celery with this juicer and the yield is outstanding. How do I know this? First of all, the pulp is dry but even when I put the pulp through the juicer a second time, only a few drops of juice are extracted. The insert tube isn't narrow, the widest part of a celery stalk, the bottom, goes though just fine. The hardest part to clean is the auger filter because the celery fibers will get stuck in the screen but the cleaning brush comes in handy for that. In addition, it is very quiet to operate and it is safe to operate and wash since there are no shape blades. I purchased this from Woot. Arrived quickly and packed in a box that was discrete. I liked buying from Amazon since they have a 30 return policy and it's cheaper than the Omega website.
